Installation and connection

The Miele water protection system

The Miele water protection system protects the washing machine from water damage.

The system consists of three main components:

1)the inlet hose

2)the electronic unit and the washing machine housing

3)the drain hose

1)Inlet hose

The inlet hose can withstand pressure of more than 7,000 kPa.

2)Electronic unit and washing machine housing

Sump

Any leaking water is collected in a sump in the base of the machine. A float switches off the safety valves, preventing any more water flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.

Overflow protection

This prevents the washing machine taking in too much water. If the water level exceeds a certain level, the drain pump switches in and pumps the excess water away.

3)Drain hose

The drain hose is protected by a ventilation system which prevents the washing machine from being emptied completely.
