IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING –
When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before installation or use of the dishwasher to prevent injury and machine damage.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by improper use of this appliance.
Use the dishwasher only for its intended purpose. This appliance is intended for residential use only.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user.
Electrical safety
Before installation make sure that the voltage and frequency listed on
the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the
work area by unplugging the unit, “tripping” the circuit breaker or removing the fuse.
Do not use an extension cord to connect this appliance to electric-
ity. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy of, an effective grounding system.
Installation
Installation and repair work should be by a Miele authorized service
technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and could void the warranty.
This equipment is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans or aircraft. However, under certain conditions it may be possible for an installation in these applications. Please contact the nearest Miele dealer or the Miele Technical Service Department with specific requirements.
Inspect the dishwasher for shipping damage. Do not install or op-
erate a damaged unit. Contact the place of purchase.
5
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely
and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
This dishwasher should only be installed under a continuous
countertop secured to adjacent cabinetry.
Do not install this dishwasher beneath a cooking surface or oven.
Do not, under any circumstances cut the intake hose or submerge in
liquid. This hose contains electrical components that could cause injury or property damage if cut or submerged.
Use
Only use the dishwasher if all panels are properly in place.
Do not tamper with the controls.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in, on, or
near the dishwasher.
Do not abuse, sit, or stand on the door or baskets of the dishwasher.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot
water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, turn on all hot water faucets and let water flow from each for several minutes before using the dishwasher. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
Do not wash plastic items unless they are labeled "dishwasher safe"
or the equivalent. For items not labeled, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
When loading tableware, place sharp items away from the door seal to prevent damage to the seal. Load knives pointing downwards to
prevent injuries.
Only use detergents and rinse aids recommended for residential dishwashers. Keep all detergents and rinse
aids out of the reach of children.
Do not drink water from the dishwasher! Harmful residues could be
present.
For dishwashers with visible heating element
Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
Disposal of an appliance
If the appliance is removed from its installation and will not be used,
the door to the wash cabinet should be removed to prevent children from being locked in the machine. When discarding an old dishwasher, unplug it from the power outlet, remove the door to the wash cabinet and cut off the power cord.

Before using for the first time
Water softener
To achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs soft water. Hard water results in calcium deposits on dishware and in the dishwasher.
If your tap water hardness is above 8 gr/gal (values are in US gallons) (140 ppm), the water should be soft-
ened. This takes place automatically in the unit’s integrated water softener.
–Your local water authority will be able to advise you of the water hardness level in your area.
–The dishwasher must be programmed to correspond to the water hardness in your area.
–The water softener must be filled with dishwasher salt for reactivation.
If your water hardness is consistently lower than 8 gr/gal (140 ppm), you do not need to add dishwasher salt. However, the dishwasher must still be programmed to correspond to the local water hardness.
Where the water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 9 - 17 gr/gal (160 - 310 ppm), always program the machine to the higher value, 17 gr/gal (310 ppm) in this example.
If there is a fault, it will help the service technician to know the hardness of your local water supply.
^ Please note the water hardness:

Before using for the first time

^Press and hold the "Top Solo" button and at the same time turn on the dishwasher with the "On/Off" button. Release the "Top Solo" button within two seconds.
The "Salt" indicator will flash.
If the "Rinse aid" indicator comes on, the rinse aid dispenser needs to be filled.
If any other indicator is lit or flashing, the above steps must be repeated.
^Turn the program selector to the position which corresponds to the water hardness in your area (see table).

15
Before using for the first time
Filling the salt reservoir
If your water hardness level is greater than 8 gr/gal, the salt reservoir should be filled before the first use and when the "Salt" indicator lights.
Only use water softener salt specially formulated for dishwashers. Other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the water softener.
The proper salt can be purchased from your Miele dealer or Miele’s Technical Service Department.
,Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with dishwashing detergent will damage the water softener.
To fill the salt reservoir:
^Remove the lower basket.
^Unscrew and remove the salt reservoir cap located on the floor of the wash cabinet.
^Place the provided funnel over the salt reservoir.
The salt reservoir must be filled with 2 quarts (2 l) of water before adding salt for the first time. Water does not have to be added with subsequent refills.
^Carefully fill with salt. The salt reservoir holds approximately 4.5 lbs
(2 kg) of salt. As it is filled, water will run out.
^Clean any excess salt from the threads of the reservoir opening.
^Screw the cap on firmly.
^If the dishwasher will not be used immediately, run the "Rinse & Hold" program. This will remove any traces of salt from inside the wash cabinet.
