The Miele waterproof anti-leak
system
Providing your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.
Connection to the water supply
,
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher may be connected
to a cold or hot water supply, max.
60 °C. We would only recommend
connection to a hot water supply if it
is economical, e.g. a solar powered
supply. When connected to a hot
water supply all programme stages
which would otherwise be carried out
with cold water will be carried out
with hot water.
,
A hot water connection with
temperatures exceeding 60 °C may
cause damage to the unit, impair
wash results and affect the product
guarantee.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long. A
1.5 metre long flexible metal extension
hose, pressure tested to 14,000 kPa/
140 bar, is available as an optional
accessory if required.
– A tap with a
3
/
4
" male thread must be
provided on site.
– The dishwasher is constructed to
comply with Australian regulations,
and may be connected to a suitable
supply without an extra non-return
valve if national regulations allow this.
– The water pressure (flow pressure at
the take-off point) must be between
30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 and 10 bar).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be
fitted.
,
To avoid any damage to the
appliance, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.
!
The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
as it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
This appliance incorporates back-
flow protection complying with
AS/NZS 3500.1.2. No further
backflow protection required for
connection to the water supply.
