Cleaning and care

To clean the water inlet filters

The washing machine has two

filters to protect the inlet valves.These filters should be checked every 6 months or so, or more often if there are frequent interruptions to the water sup- ply.

To clean the filter in the union in the open end of the inlet hose:

First turn off the stopcock.

Unscrew the threaded union con- necting the free end of the inlet hose to the stopcock.

Remove the rubber seal from the re- cess.

Using pointed pliers, take hold

of the plastic filter bar, remove the fil- ter and clean

Put the filter and seal back in the reverse order and reconnect the hose.

Turn on the stopcock and check the connection is watertight.

Inspect the inlet hose which is sub- jected to high pressure while the ma- chine is in operation. The hose should be replaced if there are small cracks in the surface, or if it has been otherwise damaged.

If replacing the inlet hose only use a hose able to withstand pressure up to 70 bar. Miele’s own hoses meet this re- quirement.

To clean the filter in the water inlet valve:

Using pliers, carefully loosen the ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve, and unscrew.

Use water pump pliers to withdraw the plastic filter by the bar (see illus- tration). Clean, put back and secure.

The two filters must be put back in place after cleaning.
