Installation and connection

Drainage system

The appliance drains through a pump with a 1m delivery head. For the water to drain freely, the hose must be free of kinks. The swivel elbow at the end of the hose can be turned in either direction, or removed as needed with a sharp twist and pull.

If required, the hose can be extended to a length of 5m. The necessary parts can be ordered through your Miele dealer or Miele Customer Service.

For delivery heads over 1m (up to a max. of 1.8 m), contact your Miele Customer Service for a replacement pump and with a part # 1053992.

Drain hose connection:

1. Hang directly into a washbasin or sink:

Please note:

Secure the hose over the edge so that it will not slip.

Make sure that the water can drain away freely without hindrance. Otherwise, the water could overflow or be sucked back up into the washing machine.

2. Connect securely to a plastic drain pipe with a rubber sleeve (not-return valve not required).

3. Connect securely to a floor gully.

4. Attach to a washbasin with a plastic fitting.
