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.
– 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 stopcock with a
3
/
4
" male thread
must be provided on site.
– This appliance is constructed to
comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 //
VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be
connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve if
national regulations permit.
– 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).
