Connecting the water supply
The water in the dishwasher is NOT safe to drink!
– The dishwasher must be connected to the water supply in
accordance with local regulations.
– The water quality should satisfy local drinking water requirements. If
the water supply has a high iron content, there is a danger of
corrosion occurring on items being cleaned in the dishwasher, as
well as the appliance itself. If the chloride content of the water
exceeds 100 mg/l the risk of corrosion to items being cleaned in the
dishwasher will be further increased.
– In certain regions (e.g. mountainous regions), the water
composition may cause precipitates to form, requiring the use of
softened water for the dishwasher.
– A backflow preventer is not required; the dishwasher corresponds
with the valid standards for the protection of drinking water.
– The water pressure (flow pressure) must amount to at least
29 psi /200 kPa overpressure. At a water pressure (flow pressure)
below 29 psi / 200 kPa, the water intake time extends automatically.
The maximum permissible static pressure amounts to 145 psi /
1000 kPa (overpressure). If the water pressure does not lie in the
29-145 psi / 200-1000 kPa range, ask Miele how to proceed.
– The dishwasher is supplied as standard for connection to cold
water (blue-coded hose) and hot water up to 149°F (65°C) (red-
coded hose). Connect the inlet hoses to the cold and hot water
supplies.
– If there is no hot water supply, the intake hose with the red marking
must also be connected to the cold water supply.
– A stopcock valve with a 3/4" male thread must be provided on site.
It should be easily accessible so that the water supply can be
turned off when the appliance is not in use.
– The intake hose is an approx. 67" (1.7 m) long pressure hose DN 10
with a 3/4 inch screw connection. For the extension, a 59" (1.5 m)
long, flexible metal hose (test pressure 2030 psi (140 bar)) is
available. The dirt filter in the screw connection may not be
removed.
– Install the coarse filter (supplied in accessory pack) between the
stopcock valve and the inlet hose
(see Cleaning and care, Water inlet").
