Connection to the water inlet
,
Water in the machine must not
be used as drinking water.
^
The machine must be connected to
the water supply in accordance with
local and national water authority
regulations.
^
This machine is constructed to
comply with German water
regulations (DVGW), and may be
connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve if
national regulations permit.
In the UK this machine is listed as a
WRAS approved product in the Water
Fittings and Materials Directory of
products which comply with the Wa-
ter Fittings Regulations. It is
approved for mains water connection
in fluid categories 4 and 5, when
installed using the double check
valves supplied.
^
The water pressure (flow rate) must
be a minimum of 0.5 bar (50 kPa).
If the water pressure (flow rate) is
below 2 bar (200 kPa) the fill time is
automatically extended.
The max. permitted static pressure is
10 bar (1000 kPa).
If the water pressure is not in the
range of 0.5 to 10 bar (50-1000 kPa)
the p / 6 indicator light may come
on and the fault code "F2E" show in
the display. Please contact the Miele
Service Department.

The machine is supplied as standard
for connection to a cold or
a hot wa
-
ter supply up to a max. temperature
of 70 °C.
^
A stopcock with 3/4 inch male thread
must be provided on site. It should
be easily accessible so that the water
supply can be turned off when the
machine is not in use.
^
The DN 10 inlet hose is approx. 1.7 m
long terminating in a 3/4 inch female
thread. A 1.5 metre long flexible
metal extension hose, pressure
tested to 140 bar, is available as an
optional accessory if required. On no
account may the inlet filter be
removed.
^
A large surface area filter is enclosed
in the kit supplied with the machine
for installing between the stopcock
and the inlet hose
(see illustration in "Cleaning and Care
- Water inlet").
,
The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
(see illustration).
