Installation and connection

Connection to the water supply

Installation

For the Miele Waterproof system to function correctly, it may only be fitted in the positions shown in the illustrations above.

The machine should be connected to a mains water supply in accordance with local and national safety regulations.

The German authorities do not require it to have a non-return valve as the washer-dryer has been designed to comply with DIN regulations.

The machine is designed to operate with a flow pressure of between 1 and 10 bar. If it is higher than 10 bar it is essential to fit a reducer valve.

Connection to the mains water supply should incorporate a mains stopcock with 3/4" thread. The stopcock should be fitted by a qualified plumber.

,The connection point is subject to mains water pressure. Turn on the stopcock slowly and check for leaks. Correct the position of the washer and union if appropriate.

The appliance is not suitable for connection to a hot water supply and connection to a household water softener is not recommended.
