Connection to the water inlet
,
Water in the machine is not
suitable for drinking.
– The machine must be connected to
the water supply in accordance with
local and national regulations.
– The washer is constructed so it may
be connected to a water supply
without an extra non-return valve,
unless required by code.
– The water pressure (flow rate) must
be a minimum of 7.25 psi (0.5 bar /
50 kPa).
If the water pressure (flow rate) is
below 29 psi (2 bar) the fill time is
automatically extended.
The max. permitted static pressure is
145 (10 bar).
If the water pressure is not in the
range of 7.25 psi (0.5 bar) to 145 psi
(10 bar) the "Fill/Drain" indicator light
may come on and the fault code "F2
E" show in the display. Please
contact the Miele Service
Department.
– The machine is supplied as standard
for connection to a cold (coded blue)
and
a hot (coded red) water supply
up to a max. temperature of 158°F
(70 °C).
The inlet hoses should be connected
to the cold and hot water valve.
If there is no hot water connection
the hot water inlet hose marked
red
should also be connected to a cold
water valve. In other words both inlet
hoses are connected to the cold
water supply.
– Valve with 3/4 BSP male thread are
to be provided on site. They should
be easily accessible so that the
water supply can be turned off when
the machine is not in use.
– The DN10 inlet hose is 5
½
ft. (1.7 m)
long, with a
3
/
4
" (2 cm) female hose
thread.
The water inlet filters in the
threads must not be removed.
– Large surface area filters are
enclosed in the kit supplied with the
machine for installing between the
valve and the inlet hose
(see illustration in "Cleaning and
Care - Water inlet").
,
Do not cut the inlet hose or
damage it in any way.
