Installation and connection

Connection to the water supply
The washer-dryer should be connected
to the mains water supply in accord-
ance with current local and national
safety regulations. The German author-
ities do not require it to have a non-re-
turn valve as the washing machine has
been designed to comply with DIN reg-
ulations.
The machine is designed to operate
with a flow pressure of between 100
and 1000kPa. If it is higher than
1000kPa it is essential to fit a pressure
reducing valve.
Connection to the mains water supply
should incorporate a mains stopcock
with 3/4" threaded union. The stopcock
should be fitted by a qualified plumber.
The screw connection is subject
to mains water pressure.
Turn on the stopcock slowly and
check for leaks. Correct the position
of the washer and union if appropri-
ate.
The washer-dryer is not suitable for
connection to a hot water supply.
Maintenance
Only use a genuine Miele hose that has
been tested to withstand pressure of at
least 14,000 kPa should you ever need
a replacement.
The dirt filter in the open end of the
inlet hose must not be removed.
Extension hose
A 1.5 metre long (metal) extension hose
is available from your Miele dealer or
the Miele Spare Parts Department as an
optional extra.
