Drainage
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
extended to a length of 5 m. The
necessary parts can be purchased from
Miele.
For a delivery head of more than 1 m
(up to a max. of 1.8 m) a replacement
drain pump will need to be fitted.
Please contact Miele for advice.
In this case the drain hose can be
extended to a length of 2.5 m. The
necessary parts can be purchased from
Miele.
Drain hose connection:
1. Directed into a sink or basin:
Please note:
– Hook the hose over the edge and
secure.
– Make sure that the water can drain
away freely without hindrance.
Otherwise there is a risk of water
overflowing or of some of the
drained water being sucked back
into the machine.
2. Connected securely to a plastic drain
pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no
need to use a siphon.
3. Connected securely to a floor gully.
4. Connected securely to a standpipe.
