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 fault code F2 E in the display.
Please contact the Miele Service
Department.

^ The machine is supplied as standard
for connection to a cold (coded blue)
and hot (coded red) water supply up
to a max. temperature of 70 °C.
The inlet hoses should be connected
to the cold and hot water stopcocks.
If there is no hot water connection the
hot water inlet hose marked red
should also be connected to a cold
water stopcock. In other words both
inlet hoses are connected to the cold
water supply.
^ Stopcocks with 3/4 BSP male thread
are to be provided on site. They
should be easily accessible so that
the water supply can be turned off
when the machine is not in use.
^ The DN 10 inlet hoses are approx.
1.7 m long terminating in a 3/4 inch
female thread. On no account must
the inlet filters be removed.
^ Large surface area filters are
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").
