Installation and connection

This washer uses hot and cold household water.

The washer must always be connected to a tap water line (cold water, inlet hose with blue tag).

Tap water line (cold water)

The tap water connection is established using the inlet hose with the blue marking.

If the washer is connected to this line only, the appliance will need to be re- programmed to cold water fill only.

Please contact your Miele dealer or Miele Customer Service for reprogramming instructions.

The second unused inlet hose, with the red tag, will be attached to the rear of the washer after re-programming.

Hot water connection

The hot water connection is established using the inlet hose with the red marking.

Tips for the hot water connection

The hot water temperature at the stopcock must not exceed 60°C, and the ideal temperature is 55°C.

If the hot water inlet is closed, the washer will automatically switch over to tap water mode after a period of time. This safety feature is not intended for long-term use. The washer will continue to wash in hot water mode, which can lead to a poor wash result.
