Connection to the water supply
Installation
For the Miele Waterproof systemto
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.

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.

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.
