Drainage
There are two drainage extras for this
machine:
Drain valve
The machine is drained with a
motorized drain valve. A connection
can be made to an on-site floor drain
(gully with an air gap) on an angle.
Drain pump
The wash water is drained using a
pump with a 3 ft (1 m) delivery height.
Make sure there are no kinks in the
drain hose. The elbow on the end of the
drain hose can be turned or removed if
necessary.
Possible connections:
1. Directly into a sink:
Hook the hose
over the edge of the sink and secure
it firmly (e.g. by tying the hose to the
water faucet).
2. To a stand pipe:
Place the drain
hose into a 1
1
/
2
" (4 cm) stand pipe
and secure it firmly.
3. To a floor drain:
The machine is
equipped with an air gap/
anti-siphoning system so that no
minimum drain height is required.
If necessary the drain hose can be
extended up to 16’ 5" (5 m). The hose
extension can be purchased from your
Miele dealer or Miele.
The drain pump must be replaced for
drain heights over 3 ft (1 m). The
maximum allowable drain height is 5 ft
11 in (1.8 m). A stronger pump for
these heights can be purchased from
your Miele dealer or Miele.
