							Water inlet
Water in the machine must not
be used as drinking water.
The machine must be connected to
the water supply in accordance with
local and national regulations.
If the iron content in the water is too
high, there is a risk of corrosion
damage to the machine and its load.
If the chloride content of the water
exceeds 100mg/l, the risk of
corrosion damage to the load will
increase considerably.
The washer is constructed so it may
be connected to a water supply
without an extra non-return valve,
unless required by code.
Water in certain regions shows
precipitations. In this case the
machine must only be used with a
water softener unit.

The water pressure must be at least
14.5 psi. If the water pressure is
below 14.5 psi, the water intake time
lengthens. The max. permitted static
pressure is 145 psi. If the water
pressure (flow pressure) is not
between 14.5 and 145 psi, contact
Miele’s Technical Service Dept. The
indicator- Fault code "F2E" may
light.

The machine is supplied to be
connected to a standard coldorhot
water supply at a maximum
temperature of 149 °F (65 °C).A water valve with
3/4" (2 cm) male
hose thread is to be provided on site.
It should be easily accessible so the
water supply can be turned off when
the machine is not in use.
The inlet hose is 5
½ft. (1.7 m) long,
with a3/4" (2 cm) female hose thread.
An extension hose is available
(4 ft. 11 " [1.5 m] flexible metal hose,
2.03 psi pressure).The water inlet
filters in the threads must not be
removed.
The water inlet filter (supplied in the
accessory bag with the machine)
must be installed between the water
supply and the inlet hose. See
"Cleaning the water inlet filters".
Do not cut the inlet hose or
damage it in any way.
