Connection to the water supply
The water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking
water.
Do not re-use removable hose attachments. Use the hose supplied
with this dishwasher.
– The dishwasher must be connected to the water supply in strict
accordance with current local and national water authority
regulations.
– The water used must at least comply with European regulations for
drinking water quality. If the water supply has a high iron content
there is a danger of corrosion occurring on items being cleaned in
the dishwasher, as well as the machine itself. If the chloride content
of the water exceeds 100 mg/l the risk of corrosion to items being
cleaned in the dishwasher will be further increased.
– In certain regions (e.g. mountainous regions), the water
composition may cause precipitates to form, requiring the use of
softened water for the dishwasher.
– UK only: To comply with water regulation requirements, this
dishwasher must be connected to the potable water supply via the
check valve supplied with the machine.
– The water pressure (flow pressure) must amount to at least 200 kPa
overpressure (100 kPa = 1 bar). At a water pressure (flow pressure)
below 200 kPa (2 bar), the water intake time extends automatically.
The maximum permissible static pressure amounts to 1000 kPa
(overpressure). If the water pressure does not lie in the 200-1000
kPa (2 - 10 bar) range, contact Miele Service for advice.
– This dishwasher is supplied as standard for connection to cold
water (blue coded hose)
and
hot water up to 65 °C (red coded
hose). Connect the inlet hoses to the stopcock valves for cold and
hot water.
– If there is no hot water supply available, the inlet hose coded
red
must also be connected to the cold water supply.
– Connect the intake hose for the steam condenser (without water
protection device) to a cold water stopcock.
– See next page for connecting to AD water.
– A stopcock valve with a 3/4" male thread must be provided on site.
It should be easily accessible so that the water supply can be
turned off when the dishwasher is not in use.
– The DN 10 inlet hose is approx. 1.7 m long terminating in a 3/4"
female thread. A 1.5 m long flexible metal extension hose tested to
140 bar is available as an optional accessory if required. On no
account may the inlet filter be removed.
