Connection to the water inlet
,
Water in the machine is not
suitable for drinking.
– The machine must be connected to
the mains water supply in
accordance with local and national
water authority regulations.
– If the iron content in the water is too
high, there is a risk of corrosion
damage to instruments.
If the chloride content in the water
exceeds 100 mg/l, the risk of
corrosion damage to instruments will
increase considerably.
– This machine is constructed to
comply with German water
regulations (DVGW), and may be
connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve if
national regulations permit.
– The
minimum flow pressure
is
50 kPa (0.5 bar).
– To prevent excessively long filling
times the
recommended flow
pressure
for this machine is 150 kPa
(1.5 bar).
– The
maximum permitted static
water pressure
is 1000 kPa (10 bar).
– If the water pressure is not in the
range specified above (the
p
/
6
indicator light may come on and the
fault code F E will appear in the
display) please contact the Miele
Service Department for advice.
– This machine is supplied as standard
for connection to a cold water
supply. The inlet hose must only be
connected to the cold water
stopcock.
– The large surface area filter must be
fitted between the stopcock and the
inlet hose (see "Other problems").
– A stopcock with 3/4 inch male thread
must be provided on site. It should
be easily accessible so that the
water supply can be turned off when
the machine is not in use.
– The DN 10 inlet hose is approx.
1.7 m long terminating in a 3/4 inch
female thread. On no account must
the inlet filter be removed.
,
The inlet hose must
not
be
shortened or damaged in any way
(see illustration).
