Cleaning the water intake filter.
The water valve housing on the inlet
hose contains electrical compo-
nents and should not be immersed,
or run through water.
A filter is incorporated in the intake
hose that is attached to the dishwa-
sher’s main shutoff valve. If your water
supply is hard, or the pipes contain
sediment; this filter may clog and pre-
vent sufficient water from entering the
wash cabinet. It can be cleaned as fol-
lows:
Cleaning the filter.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
electrical supply (unplug it or shut off
the circuit breaker).
Turn off the main shutoff valve and
unscrew the intake hose.
Carefully remove the rubber seal.
Remove the filter using needle nose
pliers and clean it by rinsing under
running water.
Replace the filter and seal. Make
sure they are seated correctly.
Screw the intake hose back onto the
water valve, making certain it is not
cross-threaded.
Slowly turn on the valve and test for
leaks.
Installing an in-line water filter.
If your water supply contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we
recommend installing a filter between
the valve and the intake hose connec-
tion. These filters can be obtained
from the Miele Parts Department.
