The Miele waterproof anti-leak
syst
em
As long as your dishwasher has been
instal
led correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage.
Connection to the water sup‐
ply
W
ater in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher may be connected to
a col
d or hot water supply, max.
60 °C.
We would only recommend connec‐
tion to a hot water supply if it is eco‐
nomical, e.g. a solar powered supply.
When connected to a hot water sup‐
ply all programme stages which
would otherwise be carried out with
cold water will be carried out with hot
water.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
A 1.5 m long
flexible metal extension
hose, pressure tested to 14000
kPa/140 bar) is available as an op‐
tional accessory, if required.
– A stopcock with a 3/4" male thread
must be pr
ovided on site.
– This appliance is constructed to
comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 //
VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be
con
nected to a suitable supply with‐
out an extra non-return valve if na‐
tional regulations permit.
– The flow pressure at the water intake
must lie
between 30 and 1000 kPa
(0.3 and 10 bar). If it is higher than
this a pressure reducing valve must
be fitted.
After connecting the dishwasher to
the wat
er supply, check that all
plumbing connections are watertight.
T
o avoid any damage to the ap‐
pliance, the dishwasher must only be
connected to a fully vented plumbing
system.
The inlet hose must not be
sh
ortened or damaged in any way as
it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
