Installation and connection

Connection to the drainage system

The machine drains via a drain pump with a delivery head of 1 metre*. The drain hose must not be kinked as this restricts drainage. The swivel elbow at the end of the hose can be turned in either direction, or can be detached if required, with a sharp twist and pull.

If required, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 5 m. The necessary parts can purchased from the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele dealer.

*For a delivery head of more than 1 m (up to a max. of 1.8 m) a replacement drain pump will need to be fitted.

Please contact the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele Dealer.
