Notes on connecting to the
water supply
The appliance must be connected to
the water supply by a qualified
professional.
Disconnect the appliance from the
electrical power supply before
connecting the water line.
Turn off the water supply before
connecting the water lines for the
oven.
– All devices used for connecting the
appliance to the water supply must
comply with the current national and
local safety regulations in the country
in which the appliance is being
installed.
– Hard water, water containing minerals
and water from reverse osmosis
filtering systems can damage the
oven. Only use filtered, softened and
demineralized water from the
building's plumbing to supply the
oven.
–
Connect the oven to a cold water
supply only.
– The oven must only be connected to
a water supply with a shut-off valve.
– A water shut-off valve must be
provided between the stainless steel
hose and the household water supply
to ensure that the water supply can
be cut off if necessary.
– The water shut-off valve must be
accessible after installation.
– The water pressure must be between
14.5 and 145 psi (1 and 10 bar) If the
pressure is higher than this, install a
pressure reducing valve.
– The stainless steel hose provided has
a length of 4' 11" (1.5 m). Longer inlet
hoses are available if necessary. Do
not shorten the hoses.
– The total hose length must not
exceed 24.5 ft (7.5 m).
Ensure that the shut-off valve is
accessible after installation.
If the stainless steel hose supplied is
damaged, it must only be replaced
with an original Miele replacement
hose, available from Miele. The hose
must be suitable for supplying
drinking water.
