Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in the use of water and electric
ity. For best results follow these tips:
The dishwasher can internally heat
water to the temperatures required by
the wash program. This capability al
lows the option of connecting the ma
chine to either a hot or cold water
source.
For lowest energy consumption and
^
the gentlest washing of china and
crystal, connect the dishwasher to a
cold water source.
^ For fastest possible wash times, yet
higher energy consumption, connect
the dishwasher to a hot water source.
^ For the most economical washing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
-
-
-
10
^ Choose the program best suited for
the type of dishware being washed
and the degree of soiling.
^
Select the Economy program for
energy saving dishwashing.
^
Use the correct amount of detergent.
^
Use only 2/3 the usual amount of de
tergent when baskets are only half
full.
^
Turn off the heated drying feature to
conserve more energy (see “Addi
tional features”).
-
-
Before using for the first time
Before using for the first time,
please note the following.
Setting the water softener
The water softener must be set to corre
spond to the water hardness in your
area. The water hardness can be deter
mined by calling your local water com
pany, or by using a test kit that can be
purchased from the Miele Technical
service Department.
Before using for the first time
Add correct detergent amount
Generally, 1 ½ tablespoons (25 ml) of
detergent is enough for most normally
soiled loads. Not enough or too much
detergent can lead to poor wash re
sults. See “Adding detergent”.
-
Cleaning results vary among detergent
-
brands. If you are not satisfied with the
wash results, try another brand of de
tergent.
-
-
The salt reservoir must only be filled
with water and salt. Never fill it with de
tergent.
Adding rinse aid
Accidentally filling the rinse aid reservoir with detergent will damage the
reservoir.
Only
use detergents and rinse aids for-
mulated for domestic dishwashers.
Choose the correct program
Wash programs should be selected de
pending on load size and degree of
soiling. See the Program Chart for pro
gram descriptions.
Load dishes correctly
-
Load dishes so that water can reach all
surfaces. Check that the spray arms
are not blocked by tall or large items. If
necessary, manually rotate the spray
arms to check clearance.
The combination filter in the base of
the wash cabinet and the spray arms
must be kept clean.
These should be regularly inspected
and cleaned.
See the “Cleaning and care” section for
more detailed information.
-
Every dishwasher is tested before
leaving the factory. Any water re
maining in the machine is from
these tests and does not indicate
that the machine has been used.

Before using for the first time
Water softener
To achieve good cleaning results, the
dishwasher needs soft water. Hard
water results in the build up of calcium
deposits on dishes and in the dish
washer. If your tap water hardness is
above
8 gr/gal (140 ppm), the water should be
softened. This takes place automati
cally in the integrated water softener.
The water softener must be filled with
–
dishwasher salt for reactivation.
The dishwasher must be pro
–
grammed to correspond to the water
hardness in your area.
– Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.
-
-
-
If your tap water hardness is consis
tently lower than 8 gr/gal (= 140 ppm)
do not add dishwasher salt. However,
the dishwasher must still be pro
grammed to correspond to the water
hardness level in your area.
Where the water hardness fluctuates
(e. g. 9 - 17 gr/gal) always program the
machine to the higher value (in this ex
ample 17 gr/gal).
If there is a fault, it will help the service
technician to know the hardness of your
tap water.
^ Enter the water hardness below:
gr/gal (ppm)

13
Before using for the first time
Programming and setting the
water hardness level
Your water hardness level must be pro
grammed into the machine using the
buttons on the control panel. The water
hardness level selector in the wash
cabinet is then also
set to the water
hardness level in your area.
Programming and changing the
water hardness level
Turn off the dishwasher with the
^
“On/Off” button.
^ Turn the program selector to “Stop”.
^ Hold the “Start” button in and at the
same time turn the dishwasher on
with the “On/Off” button. Release the
“Start” button within 2 seconds.
The “Salt” indicator flashes.
Note:
If any other indicator lights flash or light
the process must be repeated.
Except:
If the “Rinse aid” indicator flashes or
lights then rinse aid was never added
or needs to be refilled.

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 reactivation salt (1 4 mm grain size); other salts may con
tain insoluble additives which can im
pair the water softener.
The salt reservoir holds approximately
4 lbs (2 kg) of salt.
Before using for the first time
To fill the salt reservoir:
Remove the lower basket.
^
Unscrew and remove the salt reser
^
voir cap.
-
-
-
Inadvertently filling the salt reser
voir with dishwashing detergent
will damage the water softener.
Make sure that only water softener reactivation salt of the
proper grain size is used.
-
Before adding salt for the first time,
fill the reservoir with approximately
2 quarts (2 l) of water.
^ Place the provided funnel over the
salt reservoir.
^
Carefully fill with salt, grain size of
1 - 4 mm. The salt reservoir holds ap
proximately 4 lbs (2 kg) of salt de
pending of the brand used. 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 im
mediately after reactivation, run the
“Rinse & Hold” program. This will re
move any traces of salt from inside the
wash cabinet.
-
-
-
-
17
Before using for the first time
Salt indicator
When the salt reservoir is empty, the
“Salt-PC” indicator will light, indicating
that it should be refilled with reactiva
tion salt.
After the reservoir has been filled, the
water softener is automatically reactivated the next time the dishwasher is
started. The “Softener” indicator will
light during this process.
Note:
If your water is soft (below 8 gr/gal) the
salt reservoir should not be filled with
salt. The indicator will remain lit and
should be disregarded or deactivated.
The “Salt-PC” indicator has also been
designed so that future program up
dates can be entered into the dish
washer. See the “After Sales Service”.
-
-
-
Bypassing the Salt indicator
To bypass the salt indicator, you will
need a screwdriver and needle nose
pliers.
Remove the salt reservoir cap.
^
Looking into the salt reservoir, you will
see the top of the float chamber on the
right hand side
^ Using a screwdriver, carefully pivot
the float chamber towards the center
of the reservoir.
^
Using needle nose pliers, pull off the
cap
c from the float chamber and
remove the float
^
Replace the float chamber cap, push
the chamber back into its upright po
sition, and replace the salt reservoir
cap. The indicator should now re
main off.
