WaterProof System (WPS)
The WaterProof System (WPS) consists of a number of interdependent
safety features to provide protection against water leakage.
1. Protection against solenoid valve leakage:
Each water intake is controlled by an inlet valve. If this valve cannot close
properly due to some defect or blockage by a foreign object, a second
inlet valve ensures that the water supply is shut off.
2. Protection against water intake hose leakage:
If a leakage occurs, water flows along an outer hose sleeve surrounding
the intake hose to the drip pan. Here a float switch then acts to switch off
a microswitch which closes the inlet valves to cut off the water supply.
3. Protection against dishwasher overflow:
If some defect has caused the water level in the appliance to rise so that
it overflows into the drip pan, and the water quantity sensor has also
failed, the float switch is activated. This switches off a microswitch which
closes the inlet valves to cut off the water supply. At the same time the
drain pump is activated.
4. Protection against drain pump failure or blocked drain path:
In this case the water level in the appliance rises until it overflows into the
drip pan where the float switch is activated. This switches off a
microswitch which closes the inlet valves to cut off the water supply.

Questions and answers
INTAKE AND DRIAN COMES ON ALL THE TIME NEED TO READ WHAT THE CODES ARE FOR THIS UNIT G2141
For the Miele G 1 Series dishwasher model G2141, when the "Intake/Drain" light is on continuously, it typically indicates a fault condition. Based on the context, error codes like F01 or other FXX codes may be shown on the display, and the "Intake/Drain" LED may flash or stay on. Specific error codes are not directly listed for G2141 alone, but models like G2120 and G214x share similar fault indications:
- The “Intake/Drain” LED may flash.
- The time display may show FXX (e.g., F01).
- LEDs like “Wash/Rinse,” “Drying,” and “End” may flash together.
These symptoms generally suggest a fault related to water intake or drainage, such as a blocked filter, kinked hose, or faulty pump.
