The Miele Waterproof system
The Miele Waterproof system protects
all parts of the washing machine from
water damage.
The system consists of three main
components:
1) the inlet hoses
2) the electronic unit and the washing
machine housing
3) the drain hose
1) Inlet hoses
– The inlet hoses are fitted with
additional electrical safety valves
which work like automatic taps and
are housed in the inlet hose
connection boxes.
– They are pressure proof to between
7000 and 10000 kPa.
– The inlet hoses have a protective
sleeve.
Any leaking water from the inlet hose
is fed into the sump through the
protective covering which surrounds
the inlet hose as a "second skin". The
float switches off the safety valves,
preventing water flowing into the
machine and water in the suds
container is pumped away.
2) Electronic unit and washing
machine housing
– Sump
Any leaking water is collected in a
sump in the base of the appliance. A
float switches off the water inlet
valves, preventing water flowing into
the machine and water in the suds
container is pumped away.
– Overflow protection
This prevents the washing machine
taking in too much water. If the water
level exceeds a certain level, the
drain pump switches on and pumps
the water away.
3) Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a
ventilation system which prevents the
washing machine from being
emptied completely.
