Connecting the water inlet
,Water in the machine is not
suitable for drinking.
–The machine must be connected to
the water supply in accordance with
local and national regulations.
–High iron content can leave a rust
film on stainless steel labware and
the machine itself.
When the chloride content in the
domestic water supply is above
100mg/l, the risk of corrosion
damage to stainless steel labware is
greatly increased.
– In certain regions (e.g., mountainous
areas) the water composition may
cause condensate to form, requiring
the use of softened water in the
steam condenser.
– An acceptable water pressure (flow
rate) is 10 - 147 psi. However, the
recommended pressure is
25 - 60 psi.
If the water pressure is below 30 psi,
the fill time will take longer.
If the "Fill/Drain" indicator fault code
"F..E" lights, contact the Miele
Technical Service Department.
–The maximum permissible static
water pressure is145 psi over
pressure.
–If the water pressure lies outside
these ranges, please contact Miele
Technical Service for advice (the
"Fill/Drain" indicator, may appear in
the display "F E").
–The machine is designed for
connection to cold water (blue
marking) and hot water (red marking)
up to 158°F (70°C) max.
Connect the water intake hoses to
the cold and hot water faucets.
– If there is no hot water supply, the
intake hose with the red marking
must also be connected to the cold
water supply.
– Connect the intake hose for the
steam condenser (without water
safeguard) to the cold water faucet.
– See the next page for how to
connect the DI water line.
–Water valves with 3/4inch thread are
to be provided on site. They should
be easily accessible, because the
water supply will need to be turned
off when not in use.
–The inlet hoses are approx.5½ft
(1.7 m) long pressure hoses with
3/4inch thread. Do not remove the
water inlet filters in the threads.
