Water inlet fault

Water inlet fault is shown on the display of the washing machine/washer-dryer. The water inlet is blocked or restricted.

The stopcock is not open.

Terminate the wash programme.

Open the stopcock.

Select the programme and start it again.

The inlet filter is soiled.

Clean the inlet filter:

  • First turn off the stopcock.

  • Unscrew the water inlet hose from the stopcock.

  • Remove the rubber seal (1) from the recess.

  • Hold the free end of the water inlet hose upside down.

    The plastic filter (2) will fall out.

  • Clean the inlet filter.

  • The inlet filter must be put back in place after cleaning.

  • Reassemble in reverse order.

  • Turn on the stopcock and check that the connection is watertight.

  • If water drips out, tighten the connection.

The water inlet hose is kinked.

Remove any kinks or loops from the water inlet hose.

Keep an eye on these points for a while afterwards, as the plastic may weaken and tear.
In the event of any damage, the water inlet hose must be replaced. Contact the Miele Customer Service Department for this purpose.

The water connection pressure in the water supply pipe is too low.

Contact the facility manager or a plumber.

There is a technical fault.

Please contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
