The Miele 2 Phase System

The Miele 2 Phase System uses a base det

The 2 Phase System cleans both white and coloured textiles thoroughly. UltraPhase 1 and UltraPhase 2 single use cartridges are available to order from Miele or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com (see end of this booklet for contact details).

Installation and connection

The water protection system

The Miele water protection system pro‐

ects all parts of the washing machine

t from water damage.

The system consists of three main components:

– the inlet hose – the electronic unit and drainage and

over

flow protection

– the drain hose

The Waterproof System (WPS)

Two solenoid valves

Double-skinned inlet hose

Sump

Float switch

Electronic unit

Drain pump

Inlet hose

– The casing on the inlet hose contains

two solenoid valves , which cut off the wat

er intake directly at the stop‐ cock. These valves provide two-fold protection. In the event that one of the valves is faulty, the other valve will cut off the water intake. Blocking the water intake at the stop‐ cock means that the inlet hose is on‐ ly under pressure whilst water is be‐ ing taken into the machine. For the remainder of the time, pressure on the inlet hose is negligible.

– Protection against the solenoid

valves bursting Th

e solenoid valves are pressure tes‐ ted to between 7,000 kPa and 10,000 kPa against bursting.

– The double-skinned inlet hose 

has a pressure-resistant inner hose and a protective sleeve. Any leaking water is fed into the sump  through this protective sleeve. A float switch  closes the solenoid valves, prevent‐ ing any more water flowing into the machine and water in the suds con‐ tainer is pumped away.

Maintenance

Only use a Miele W hose should you need a replacement. Disconnect the machine from the elec‐ tricity supply before unscrewing the wa‐ terproof system inlet hose from the stopcock.

In order to protect the water inlet valve

, the dirt filter in the water inlet valve connection must not be re‐ moved.

Extension hose

A 1.5 metre long (metal) extension hose is avail

able from your Miele dealer or

the Miele Spare Parts Department as an optional extra.This hose is tested to withstand pressures of up to 14,000 kPa and can be used as a flexible ex‐ tension to the water supply. N.B. Using this hose will render the Water system safety valve on the inlet hose ineffec‐ tive.

The machine drains via a drain pump with a deliver drain hose must not be kinked as this restricts drainage. The swivel elbow at the end of the hose can be turned in ei‐ ther direction, or can be detached if re‐ quired, with a sharp twist and pull. If required, the drain hose can be exten‐ ded to a length of 5 m. The necessary parts can be purchased from your Miele Dealer or Miele.

* For a delivery head of more than 1 m (up t
