The Miele Waterproof system
As long as your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage.
Connection to the water sup‐
ply

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 connec‐
tion to a hot water supply if it is eco‐
nomical, e.g. a solar powered supply.
When connected to a hot water sup‐
ply, all programmes will be carried
out with hot water.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
– A tap with a 3/4" male thread must
be provided on site.
– Connection to the mains water sup‐
ply should only be carried out by a
qualified and competent person in
strict accordance with national and
local safety regulations. The tap
should be easily accessible once the
appliance has been installed.
– IMPORTANT
Australia and New Zealand
This appliance must be installed ac‐
cording to AS/NZS 3500.1. Back flow
prevention is already integrated in the
appliance.
– 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 fit‐
ted.
After connecting the dishwasher to
the water supply, check that all
plumbing connections are watertight.

To avoid any damage to the ap‐
pliance, the dishwasher must only be
operated when it is 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).
