Drainage
Drain valve
The washing machine is drained using a
motorised drain valve. A DN 70 angle
connector can be used for draining the
machine via an on-site floor drain (gully
with odour trap).
Drain pump
The suds are drained through a drain
pump with a 1 m delivery head. For the
water to drain freely, the hose must be
free of kinks. An elbow piece
(accessory) can be hooked onto the
end of the hose.
Drain hose connection options
1. Connected securely to a trapped
waste pipe.
2. Connected over the rim of the
laundry trough or into the sud-saver
pipe of the laundry trough.
3. Connected securely to a floor drain
(gully).
If required, the hose can be extended to
a length of up to 5 m. The necessary
parts can be ordered from Miele
(depending on country).
For a delivery head of more than 1 m
(up to a max. of 1.6 m) a replacement
drain pump will need to be fitted.
Please contact Miele for advice.
Waste water discharge from
commercial clothes washing machines
may require pre-treatment as
determined by the utility operator.
