Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw con-
nection of the valve on the water inlet
hose. The filter must be cleaned when
dirty, otherwise insufficient water flows
into the wash cabinet.
,
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be dipped in
water.
Recommendation
If the mains water contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we
recommend fitting a large-area filter in
the connection between the stopcock
and the water inlet hose threaded un-
ion. This filter is available from the Miele
Spares Dept.
Cleaning the filter:
^ Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply (switch off at the mains
socket, pull out the plug , switch off
the appropriate circuit at the fuse box
or withdraw the mains fuse).
^ Turn off the stopcock.
^ Unscrew the inlet hose.
^ Carefully remove the rubber seal.
^ Withdraw the filter using pointed pli-
ers and rinse clean under running
water.
^ Replace the filter and seal, making
sure they are sitting correctly.
^ Reconnect the inlet hose to the stop-
cock, making sure it goes on cor-
rectly and is not cross-threaded.
^ Turn on the stopcock gradually to test
for leaks. If there is a leak, the inlet
hose might not be on securely, or it
may have been screwed on at an an-
gle. Unscrew and reconnect the wa-
ter inlet valve correctly.
