Connection to the drainage
system
The machine drains via a drain pump
with a delivery head of 1 metre*.
The drain hose must not be kinked as
this restricts drainage. The swivel elbow
at the end of the hose can be turned in
either direction, or can be detached if
required, with a sharp twist and pull.
If required, the drain hose can be ex-
tended to a length of 5 m. The necessa-
ry parts can be purchased from the
Miele Spare Parts Department or your
Miele dealer.
* For a delivery head of more than 1 m
(up to a maximum of 1.8 m) a second
duo-drain pump is available with the
corresponding kit from the Miele Spare
Parts Department or your Miele Dealer.
Drain hose connection:

away freely without hindrance. Other-
wise there is a risk of water overflo-
wing or of some of the drained water
being sucked back into the machine.

pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no
need to use a non-return valve.
