Cleaning the water intake
A filter is incorporated in the screw
connection of the water intake valve.
The filter must be cleaned when dirty;
otherwise, insufficient water flows into
the wash chamber.
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component.
The housing must not be dipped in
water.
Recommendation
If your water supply contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we
recommend fitting a large-area filter in
the connection between the water
supply valve and the water inlet hose
threaded union. This filter is available
from Miele.
To clean the filter:
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
electrical supply (switch the
dishwasher off, unplug it or
disconnect or disable the fuse/circuit
breaker).
Close the water supply valve.
Unscrew the water intake valve.
Take the seal ring out of the screw
connection.
Withdraw the filter using pointed
pliers and rinse clean under running
water.
Take care when withdrawing the filter
not to pull out or dislodge the flow
regulator located underneath the
filter.
Replace the filter and washer, making
sure they are sitting correctly.
Reconnect the water intake valve to
the faucet, making sure it goes on
correctly and is not cross-threaded.
Open the water faucet gradually to
test for leaks.
If there is a leak, the inlet hose might
not be secured properly, or it may
have been screwed on at an angle.
Unscrew and reconnect the water
inlet hose correctly before tightening
it.
