Drainage

The 5 foot (1.5 m) drain hose may be connected as follows:

1.Directly into a sink: hook the hose over the edge of the sink and secure it firmly (e.g. by tying the hose to the water faucet).

2.To a stand pipe: place the drain hose into a 1 ½" (4 cm) stand pipe and secure it firmly.

3.To a floor drain: The machine is equipped with an air gap / anti-siphoning system so that no minimum drain height is required.

^The machine drains using a pump with a maximum delivery height of 4 feet (1.2 m).

^Make sure there are no kinks in the drain hose.

If desired, the drain hose may be extended to run a maximum of 16 feet (4.9 m), as long as the 4 foot (1.2 m) height is not exceeded. Hose extensions are available from your Miele dealer or Miele.
