Plumbing
The washing machine can be connected to a potable water supply. A
The washing machine has 1/2" pressure hoses with 3/4" female hose thread connections. If there is no water hookup, contact a plumber to install a connection. Make sure that the sealing ring is seated properly on the hose connector.
Replace the hose with a genuine Miele hose only, or with a hose able to withstand up to 145 psi (10 bar) pressure. The water valve connector must also be able to withstand 145 psi (10 bar).
,The bolted connection is pressurized by water pressure. Open the water valve slowly to check for leaks. Adjust the rubber seal and the bolted connection if necessary.
To protect the inlet valve the two filters - one at the pressure hose / valve connection and one at the the inlet connection to the solenoid valve- must not be removed.
Optional accessory hose extension
Hose extensions with a length of
8’ 2 7/16" to 13’ 1 1/2" (2.5 to 4 m) are available from your Miele dealer or
Miele’s Technical Service Department.
