Cleaning the filters in the
water inlet
The machines has the following filters
to protect the inlet valves:
– in the free end of any water inlet hose
– in the water inlet valve(s) for connect-
ing the hose(s) to the machine.
To clean the filter in the inlet hose:
Turn off the stopcock.
Carefuly unscrew the knurled coup-
ling connecting the inlet hose to the
stopcock.
Remove the rubber seal from the re-
cess.
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter bar, remove the filter
and clean.
Put the filter and seal back in the
reverse order and reconnect the
hose. Turn on the stopcock and
check the connection is watertight.
The filters in the inlet hose should be
checked and cleaned approx. every 6
months.
Inspect the inlet as it is subjected to
high pressure while the machine is in
operation. The hose should be re-
placed if there is any sign of damage
such as stress cracks in the surface.
If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose tested to withstand a pressure of
at least 70 bar. Miele original hoses are
tested to this standard.
