Waterproof system

All Miele dishwashers have a safety valve located on the incoming water line and a sealed underside with a water sensor. If a fault occurs, the water intake is stopped and the drain pump is activated.

Connection to the water supply

￿Do not drink water from the dishwasher!

–The dishwasher can heat its own water to the temperature required by the wash program. This allows for connection of the machine to either a hot or cold water source. For lowest energy consumption connect the dishwasher to a cold water source. For fastest possible wash times, with slightly higher energy consumption, connect the dishwasher to a hot water source. All programs use hot water in the rinse cycles.

–The inlet hose is approximately 5 ft. (1.5m) long.

–A 5 ft. (1.5m) drain extension is available from Miele.

–The water inlet hose comes equipped with a 3/4" female hose thread connector. This can be directly connected to a water supply with 3/4" MHT (male hose thread ends).

–Water pressure: Must be between 4.5 - 145 psi (0.3 - 10 bar).

￿To prevent damage to the dishwasher, it must only be connected to a fully vented drainage system.

￿Do not cut the intake hose. It contains electrical wiring. If the hose is cut, the dishwasher will not work. There will be a water leak and you could be injured. If the hose is too long, coil it neatly and place it behind the machine.
