Warning and safety instructions

A damaged appliance is dan-

gerous. Switch off at the mains
and call your Miele supplier or the
Miele Service Department.

With the “Waterproof system” the

plastic housing of the water inlet
connection contains an electrical com­ponent. The housing must therefore not
be dipped in water.

Never cut the water inlet hose,

even if it is too long. There are live
wires in this hose.

For safety reasons do not operate

this appliance on an extension
cable. (Danger of overheating).

Daily use

Do not use solvents in the dish-

washer. Danger of explosion.

Water in the dishwasher must not

be used as drinking water.

Avoid inhalation of powder deter-

gents. Dishwasher detergents con­tain irritant or corrosive ingredients. They
can cause burning in the mouth and
throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Consult a doctor immediately if detergent
has been swallowed or inhaled.

In an appliance with a cutlery bas-

ket (depending on model) cutlery
is cleaned and dried more efficiently if
placed in the basket with the handles
downwards. However, to avoid the risk
of injury place cutlery with sharp points
with the handles upwards.

Only use detergents formulated for

domestic dishwashers. Do not use
washing-up liquid.

Only use rinse aid formulated for

domestic dishwashers.

Only use special coarse grained

dishwasher salt for reactivation, as
other salts may contain insoluble addi­tives which can impair the functioning
of the softener.

Plastic items which cannot with-

stand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers,
or plastic cutlery and crockery should
not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The
high temperatures in the dishwasher
may cause them to melt or lose shape.

Do not sit or lean on the opened

door. This could cause the dish­washer to tip and be damaged and you
could get injured.

7

Warning and safety instructions

Take care on dishwashers with a
visible heater element

Do not touch the heating element

during or directly after the end of a
programme, you could burn yourself.

Some plastic items could melt or

catch fire if they were to come into
contact with the heating element. There­fore always place plastic items or any
other items which may not be com­pletely heat resistant in the upper bas­ket and ensure they cannot drop down
onto the heater element. Any items
which are too small to be lodged se­curely in the upper basket should not
be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Safety with children

Do not let small children play with

the dishwasher and its controls or
operate it. There is a danger that child­ren playing might shut themselves in
the dishwasher.

Keep children away from deter-

gents. Dishwasher detergents con­tain irritant or corrosive ingredients.
They can cause burning in the mouth
and throat if swallowed, or inhibit brea­thing. Consult a doctor immediately if
your child has swallowed or inhaled
detergent.

To avoid the danger of children

coming into contact with the dish­washer detergent:
Only add detergent
the programme and close the door, ac­tivating the child safety lock (depend­ing on model).
Keep children away from the dish­washer when the door is open. There
could be detergent residues in the ap­pliance.

To ensure children do not come

into contact with detergent:
For models with the “Delay start” option
make sure the dispenser is dry before
adding detergent. Wipe dry if necess­ary. Detergent will clog if poured into a
damp dispenser and may not be thor­oughly dispersed. If the door is open at
the end of a programme, children may
come into contact with this residue.

just before starting

To avoid machine and material
damage

Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir

with powder or liquid detergent.
This will cause serious damage to the
reservoir.

Inadvertently filling the salt reser-

voir with powder or liquid dish­washer detergent always leads to
serious damage to the water softener.

Do not use commercial or indus-

trial detergents as these may dam­age material and there is a risk of
severe chemical reaction.

Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is exceptionally econ­omical in its use of water and electricity.
You can make the most of your ap­pliance by following these tips:

If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be con­nected to a hot water supply, for fur­ther economies.
Although all stages of the wash then
take place with hot water, savings are
made in:
– the use of primary energy
– costs
– programme running time.
If, however, your water is heated by
electricity we would still recommend
connection to cold water.

For most economical dishwashing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.

10

Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.

The “Top Solo” function should only
be selected for washing very small
loads of crockery (see “Additional op­tions”).

Select the Economy 45ºC pro­gramme for energy-saving dishwash­ing.

Use the correct amounts of deter­gent.

Use only 2/3 of the given dosage if
baskets are only half full.

Before using for the first time

Before using the machine for
the first time you require:

– approx. 2 litres of water,

– approx. 2 kg dishwasher reactivation

salt,

– domestic dishwasher detergent,

– rinse aid formulated for domestic

dishwashers.

Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory.
There will be residual water in the
machine from this test. It is not an
indication that the machine has
been previously used.

The door is locked.

Vertical setting:
The door can be opened.

Before using for the first time

Water softener

In order to achieve good cleaning re­sults, the dishwasher needs to operate
with soft water. Hard water results in
the build-up of calcium deposits on
crockery and in the dishwasher. Hence
if mains water hardness is above 4 °d ­German scale (0.7 mmol/l), the water
should be softened. This takes place
automatically 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 the hardness of your local supply is
constantly lower than
you do

not need to add dishwasher
salt. The dishwasher must, however,
still be programmed to correspond to
the water hardness level in your area.

Where the water hardness fluctuates
e.g. between 8 - 17 °d (1.4 - 3.1
always programme the machine to the
higher value (17 °d/3.1 mmol/l in this
example).

In the case of a fault, it will help the ser­vice technician if you know the hard­ness of your local water supply.

Setting the water hardness level se­lector in the wash cabinet

Switch the dishwasher off with the
“On/Off” button.

The water hardness level selector in
the wash cabinet must be set accord­ing to the following table.

Setting the selector to the correct set­ting will help minimise the effects of the
wash process on glass surfaces. Too
high a setting will lead to poor cleaning
results and an increase in water spots
left on crockery and cutlery.

Use a screwdriver to take the cover
off the water hardness level selector

Before using for the first time

Filling the salt reservoir

Important. Before filling the salt
reservoir with dishwasher salt for
the

first time, you must fill it with ap­prox. 2 litres of water to enable the
salt to dissolve. Once the dish­washer has been used, there is al­ways sufficient water in the reservoir.

Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir
with powder or liquid dishwasher
detergent always causes serious
damage to the water softener. Make
sure that you have picked up the
right packet of dishwasher salt be­fore filling the salt reservoir.

Please only use special coarse
grained dishwasher salt for reactiva­tion, as other salts may contain inso­luble additives which can impair the
functioning of the softener.

Remove the lower basket and un­screw the salt reservoir cap.

Fill the reservoir with approx. 2 litres
of water (first use).

Place the funnel provided over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with
salt. The salt reservoir holds approx.
2 kg of salt depending on the brand
used.

As the salt reservoir is filled, displaced
water will overflow.

Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening and then
screw the cap on again firmly.

16

Run the Pre-wash programme imme­diately to remove any traces of salt
water from the cabinet.

Before using for the first time

Salt indicator

The salt indicator light comes on to not­ify you that the reservoir is empty.

The reservoir should then be refilled
with dishwasher salt for reactivation.
( See: Filling the salt reservoir)

After the reservoir has been filled, the
water softener is automatically reacti­vated the next time the dishwasher is
run. The salt indicator light may still be
illuminated during this process. It will
go out once the salt concentration has
reached the correct level.

Note

If the water in your area is very soft
(below 4 °d / 0.7 mmol) you do not
need to add salt to the reservoir. The
salt indicator light, however, will still
come on. It should be ignored.

(See “After sales service” for definition
of “PC”).

17

Before using for the first time

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is dis­pensed automatically.

Make sure you have added rinse aid
before using the dishwasher for the first
time.

Inadvertently filling the rinse aid
reservoir with powder or liquid dish­washer detergent always causes
serious damage to the reservoir.
Only pour rinse aid formulated for
domestic dishwashers into the reser­voir.

Alternatively it is possible to use
– Household vinegar with a max. 5%

acid content

Do not use vinegar with a higher
acid content (e.g. vinegar essence
25% acid). This must
as its use would damage the dish­washer.

not be used

Adding rinse aid

Press the button in the direction of
the arrow until the flap springs open.

or
– Liquid citric acid up to 50% acid con-

tent. The resulting rinsing and drying
quality will not, however, be as good
as when rinse aid is used.

18

Add rinse aid only until it is visible on
the surface of the filter in the open­ing.

The rinse aid reservoir holds ap­prox. 130 ml.

Close the flap firmly so that it clicks
into place. Otherwise water would
enter the rinse aid reservoir during a
programme.

Before using for the first time

Rinse aid indicator

The Rinse aid indicator light on the fas­cia comes on when the rinse aid reser­voir needs to be replenished.

When the light comes on the reservoir
still contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 - 3
programmes.

Add rinse aid in plenty of time.

Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This
prevents over-foaming occuring dur­ing the next programme.

19

Before using for the first time

Setting the rinse aid dosage

The dosage selector has settings from
1-6. It is set to 3 at the factory (see
arrow). Approx. 3 ml of rinse aid are
then used per programme. This is a re­commended setting.

If spots appear on crockery and glass­ware:

Use a higher setting.

If clouding or smearing appears on
crockery and glassware:

Use a lower setting.

Loading the dishwasher

Note

Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.

There is no need to rinse items under
running water.

Do not wash items soiled with ash,
sand, wax, lubricating grease or
paint in the dishwasher.
Ash does not dissolve and is dis­tributed in the wash cabinet. Wax,
sand, lubricating grease and paint
cause damage to the dishwasher.

Crockery can be loaded anywhere in
the baskets, but the following notes
should be observed:

Do not place crockery and cutlery in­side other pieces where they may be
concealed.

Load the crockery so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures
that it is properly cleaned.

Deep-based items should be placed
at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.

The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or hang
through the baskets.
If in doubt, test for free movement by
manually rotating the spray arms.

Make sure that small items do not fall
through the holders in the baskets.
Small items, e.g. lids, should there­fore be placed in the cutlery tray or
cutlery basket.

Some foodstuffs may contain natu­ral dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or
ketchup. Plastic items in the dish­washer may discolour if large quan­tities of these foodstuffs find their
way into the appliance on the croc­kery. The stability of plastic items is
not affected by this discolouration.

Make sure that all items are securely
positioned.

Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pans, etc. must be inverted in the
basket.

Tall, narrow, hollow items, e.g. cham­pagne glasses, should be placed in
the centre of the basket to ensure
better water coverage.

When the dishwasher is being
loaded food and drink residue may
drip onto the sides of the dish­washer door. These surfaces do not
belong to the wash cabinet and are
not accessed by water from the
spray arms. Food residue should
therefore be wiped away before the
dishwasher door is closed.

fitted).

If your dishwasher has a cutlery basket
then cutlery should be placed in the
cutlery basket with plenty of space be­tween items.

As the middle spray arms also directs

Adjusting the upper basket

In order to gain more space for taller
pieces of crockery in the bottom or

Bottle holder

The bottle holder e.g. for milk and baby
bottles, can be inserted into the bottom
basket in more than one place. Position
in any area marked white in the illustra­tion. Do not position in areas marked
“X”, as water cannot properly access
bottles in these areas, hence cleaning
results are impaired.

Cutlery

Dishwashers with a cutlery basket

Unsorted cutlery should be placed in
the cutlery basket with the handles
facing downwards to ensure opti­mum spray water access.

However, to avoid the risk of injury
cutlery with sharp points should be
placed with the handles upwards.

26

Place small spoons in the individual
slots to either side of the cutlery basket.

Spoon inserts for the cutlery basket

Use the inserts supplied when washing
heavily soiled spoons, e.g. tablespoons
and serving spoons.
The inserts separate the spoons to
allow a space between them so that
they can be more easily accessed by
water.

Loading the dishwasher

Insert the spoons with the handles
facing downwards, using only every
other slot.

If required, place an insert onto the
front and rear of the cutlery basket.

To remove the inserts:

Press the engaged hooks inwards
(use a spoon handle if necessary)
and remove the insert by pulling it
upwards.

27

Loading the dishwasher

Dishwashers with a cutlery tray (SC)

For best results cutlery should be
grouped in zones, one for knives, one
for forks, one for spoons, etc.
This makes unloading much easier.

Place the blades of knives and the
prongs of forks between the holders.
Spoons, on the other hand, should be
places with the handles between the
holders.

Longer items such as soup ladles,
cake slices, mixing spoons and long
knives should be placed lengthwise in
the indentation in the middle of the cut­lery tray.

The upper spray arm must not be
blocked by items which are too big
(e. g. cake slices).

The cutlery tray insert is removable.

Spoon heads should be placed in con­tact with at least one of the serrated re­tainers on the base of the cutlery tray to
ensure that water runs off them freely.

If the spoon handles do not fit between
the holders then lay them the other way
round.

28

Loading the dishwasher

Items not suitable for dish­washers:

– Wooden cutlery and crockery or

items with wooden parts: these may
discolour and fade. The glue used in
these items is not dishwasher-proof
and wooden handles may come
loose after being washed in a dish­washer.

– Craft items, antiques, valuable

vases and decorative glassware are
also not suitable for dishwashers.

– Plastic items which are not heat resis-

tant may lose shape.

– Copper, brass, tin and aluminium

items may discolour or become matt.

– Items with colours painted over a

glaze may fade after many washes.

– Clouding may occur on glasses after

frequent washing. Do not wash glass­ware containing lead crystal in a
dishwasher.

Please note

Silverware previously cleaned with a sil­ver polish may still be damp or spotted
at the end of a programme, where
water has not run off smoothly. It may
need rubbing dry with a soft cloth. Sil­ver treated in a silver immersion dip is
usually dry at the end of a programme
but may discolour.

Silver which has been in contact with
foods containing sulpher can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions, mayon­naise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine
and marinades.

Aluminium components (e. g. a
grease filter) must not be cleaned
with caustic alkaline commercial or
industrial cleaning agents. These
may damage material, or in extreme
cases, cause severe chemical reac­tion.

See section “Adding detergent” for
information on suitable detergents.

We recommend:

– When purchasing new crockery and

cutlery, make sure they are dish­washer-proof.

– There are no standard guidelines for

washing glassware. When in doubt,
wash by hand.

– If delicate glassware is washed in

the dishwasher ensure that only very
low temperatures are used (see pro­gramme chart). This will reduce the
risk of clouding.

29

Operating the dishwasher

Operating the dishwasher

Adding detergent

Only use detergents formulated for
domestic dishwashers. Do not use
washing up liquid.

You can use conventional powder
detergent, tablets or liquid dish­washer detergent. Do not use liquid
detergent when selecting “Delay
Start”.

Put powder or liquid detergent into
the dispenser compartment.

Detergent tablets should only be put
into compartment II if this is recom­mended by the manufacturer.
If the manufacturer recommends in­serting tablets in the cutlery basket
do not do so. Instead place them on
the inside of the door or directly into
the wash cabinet. The tablets will
then dissolve completely.

Detergent manufacturers give the re­quired amount of detergent for a par­ticular programme on their packaging.

Use at least 30 ml of detergent for a
full load in the following programmes:

– Normal programme,
– Universal programme,
– Universal plus programme,
– Economy 45º C programme.

If the manufacturer recommends a
larger amount of detergent, use the
amount recommended.

Please note

Failure to dispense the recommended
amount of detergent may impair clean­ing results.

There are currently three types of
detergent on the market:

1. Detergents containing phosphates
and chlorine.

2. Detergents containing phosphates
but chlorine-free.

3. Phosphate-free and chlorine-free
detergents.

Type 3 detergents are more environ­mentally friendly, however:

Phosphate-free detergent reacts more
sensitively to water hardness than
detergent containing phosphates. This
may influence cleaning results.
The following problems may occur:
– Increased etching in the form of a

bluish sheen on the surface of glass­ware

– Discolouration of silverware
– Colours painted over a glaze may

fade.
Appearances of this nature are gener­ally caused by the detergent used and
are not attributable to any malfunction­ing of the dishwasher itself.

Preventative measures:
– Try out a phosphate-free detergent

from another manufacturer.
– Change to a detergent containing

phosphates (type 2), or, if available,

to a detergent containing both phos-

phates and chlorine (type 1).
– Programme the water hardness se-

lector one setting higher than recom-

mended for your supply hardness

(see chart in “Before using for the

first time”). Softer water is then pro-

vided.

30

Operating the dishwasher

The bleaching effect of chlorine-free
detergents is lower than that of deter­gents containing chlorine. This may re­sult in increased tea stains or discolour­ation on plastic items. Appearances of
this nature are generally caused by the
detergent used and are not attributable
to any malfunctioning of the dish­washer itself.

Preventative measures:
– Increase the amount of detergent

used for a greater bleaching effect.

– If available, change to a detergent

containing chlorine (type 1).

Should you experience difficulties when
using these types of products, please
contact the detergent manufacturer’s
advisory service.

Warning:

Avoid inhalation of powder deter­gents. Dishwasher detergents con­tain irritant or corrosive ingredients.
They can cause burning in the
mouth and throat if swallowed, or in­hibit breathing. Consult a doctor im­mediately if detergent has been
swallowed or inhaled.
Keep children away from deter­gents and from the dishwasher
when the door is open. There could
still be detergent residues in the
cabinet.

To avoid the danger of children
coming into contact with the dish­washer detergent only add deter­gent just before starting the pro­gramme and close the door,
activating the child safety lock.

To achieve optimum results distribute
the required amount of detergent, de­pending on the type of detergent and
the programme selected, proportionally
between compartments I and II of the
dispenser.
It is essential to follow the instructions
given in the programme chart at the
end of the operating instructions.

31

Operating the dishwasher

Press the opening catch on the
detergent dispenser. The flap will
spring open.

The flap is always open at the end of a
programme.

For information

Compartment I holds max. 20 ml.
Compartment II holds max. 70 ml.

There are markings in compartment II
to assist with dispensing. The marks in­dicate a level of approx. 20, 25, 30 ml
when the door is open in a horizontal
position.

Add the required amount of deter­gent and close the flap.

Ensure that the detergent package is
properly sealed after use. Otherwise
the detergent can lose its effective­ness.

Programme selection

Choose your programme according to
the type of load and how dirty it is.

In most cases this will be a Normal Pro­gramme, a Universal Programme or a
Universal Plus Programme.

These programmes are ideally suited
to everyday mixed loads with varying
degrees of soiling.

For particular needs there are
special programmes.

The different programmes and their
uses are described in the programme
chart at the end of this booklet.

The additional function “Top Solo” can
be selected with each programme.
For further information see “Additional

“Energy Save” programme

Use this programme for lightly to nor-

mally soiled dishes.

A hot water intake (temperature of the
incoming water) of at least 45 °C and
max. 60 °C is necessary for this pro­gramme.

Water is not heated in this programme.
Only approx. 0.10 kWh of electricity is
used during this cycle.

As water is not heated, the drying re­sults may not match those of other pro­grammes.

The higher the temperature of the in­take water, the better the cleaning and
drying results.

Open the door of the dishwasher at the
end of the programme to speed up the
drying process.

Additional functions

“Top Solo” (20)

The “Top Solo” additional function is rec­ommended when there is only a small
amount of crockery and cutlery to clean.
With this function the majority of the
water is directed only to the top and
middle spray arms in the dishwasher.
This means that the water jets are aimed
at items in the upper basket and the cut­lery tray if the dishwasher has one.

As the middle spray arm also directs
water downwards, lightly soiled plates
or platters can be placed in the bottom
basket, and cutlery may be placed in
the cutlery basket if there are large
spaces between items.
Do not place dishes, bowls or other hol­low containers in the bottom basket.

Because smaller amounts of crockery
are being washed the amount of deter­gent recommended by the manufac­turer can be reduced to approx. 2/3 of
the total amount for the full load.
Make sure, however, when reducing
the amount dispensed that the clean­ing result is not affected.

Using “Top Solo” will also save water
and energy.
For example, using this function with
the “Economy 45°” programme uses
only 11 litres of water and ap­prox. 0.8 kWh of electricity.

The “Top Solo” function can be selected
with all programmes.

for 10 minutes.

The delay time counts down in 1 hour
steps until the delay start period has
elapsed for delay start periods of over
10 hours, and in minutes for delay start
periods of under 10 hours.

Once the delay start period has
elapsed the selected programme
begins automatically. The time left for a
programme to run then shows in the
display, the “Delay Start” indicator light
goes out and the “Time left” indicator
light and the light ring come on.

Operating the dishwasher

Unloading the dishwasher

Dishes tend to break and chip more
easily when they are hot.
Allow the dishes to cool until they are
comfortable enough to handle be­fore unloading them.

If you open the door fully after switch­ing off, the dishes will cool much fas­ter.

First unload the lower basket, then
the upper basket and cutlery tray
(depending on model).
This will prevent water drops from
the upper basket and cutlery tray
from falling onto the dishes in the
lower basket.

42

Cleaning and care

Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every 4 - 6 months). This
way faults and problems can be
avoided.

The dishwasher must not be used
without all the filters in place.

Cleaning the filters in the
wash cabinet

The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution, thus preventing it ac­cessing the circulation system and re­entering the cabinet through the spray
arms.

Collection of coarse soil may cause the
filters to clog.
Check the filter combination regularly
(every 4 - 6 months) and clean if
necessary.

Cleaning and care

Turn the handle anti-clockwise to re­lease the filter combination.

Switch the dishwasher off before­hand.

Lift the filter combination out of the
machine. Remove any coarse par­ticles and rinse the filter under run­ning water. Use a nylon brush if
necessary.

43

Cleaning and care

To clean the underside of the filter, the
flap must be opened:

Pull back the yellow clip to do this.

Rinse all parts under running water,
using a nylon brush if necessary.

Then close the flap so that the clip en­gages.

Important:
After cleaning make sure that the
clip has properly engaged.

Replace the filter combination so
that it lies flat in the base of the
wash cabinet.

Secure the filter by turning the
handle in a clockwise direction.

44

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the spray arms

Particles of food can get stuck in the
spray arm jets. The spray arms should
therefore be inspected and cleaned
regularly (approx. every 4 - 6 months).

Switch the dishwasher off before­hand.

Remove the spray arms as follows:

Take out the cutlery tray (if your dish­washer is fitted with one).

Press the top spray arm upwards to
engage the inner ratchet. Then un­screw the spray arm.

Remove the lower basket.

Pull the lower spray arm firmly up­wards to remove it.

Lift up the middle spray arm b to en­gage the ratchet. Then unscrew the
spray arm

c.

Use a pointed object to push food par­ticles into the spray arm jets.

Rinse thoroughly under running
water.

Replace the spray arms and check
that they rotate freely.

45

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely self-clean­ing, provided that the correct amount
of detergent is always used.

If however there are lime scale or
grease deposits in the cabinet these
can be removed with a proprietary dish­washer cleaner.

Cleaning the door and the
door seal

Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.

Wipe food and drink residue from
the sides of the dishwasher door.
These areas are not part of the wash
cabinet and are therefore not ac­cessed by water from the spray
arms.

Cleaning the control panel
(fascia)

This should only be wiped with a
damp cloth or suitable cleaning
agent designed for use on plastic.

Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents, glass cleaning agents or all­purpose cleaners. Because of their
chemical composition they could
cause serious damage to plastic
surfaces.

Cleaning the door panel

Clean using a suitable cleaning
agent.

Panels made from wood should only
be cleaned using a damp chamois
leather and then dried with a soft
cloth.

Do not use any cleaning agents con­taining ammonia or thinners.
They could damage surfaces.

Solving problems

Cleaning the water inlet filter

A filter is incorporated in the screw con­nection of the valve on the water inlet
hose. The filter must be cleaned when
dirty, otherwise insufficient water flows
into the wash cabinet (see “Checking
the water level”).

The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be dipped
in water.

Solving problems

Recommendation

If the mains water contains a large num­ber of insoluble substances, we recom­mend fitting a large-area filter in the
connection between the stopcock
and the water inlet hose threaded
union.
This filter is available from the Miele
Spares Dept.

Cleaning the filter:

Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply (switch off at the mains
socket, pull out the plug , switch off
the appropriate circuit at the fuse box
or withdraw the mains fuse).

Turn off the stopcock.

Unscrew the inlet hose.

Carefully remove the rubber seal.

Withdraw the filter using pointed pliers
and rinse clean under running water.

Replace the filter and seal, making
sure they are sitting correctly.

Screw back into place on the water
inlet, taking care that it is not cross­threaded.

Turn on the stopcock gradually to
test for leaks. If there is a leak, screw
the connections on more tightly, mak­ing sure the threads do not cross.

55

Solving problems

Cleaning the drain pump and
non-return valve

If the water has not been pumped
away at the end of a programme the
drain pump or the non-return valve
might be blocked. They are, however,
easy to clean. Watch out for glass or
bone splinters which could cause injury.

Take the filter combination out of the
wash cabinet (see “Cleaning and
care”, “Cleaning the filters in the
wash cabinet”).

Scoop the water out of the cabinet
using a suitable container.

Raise the locking clamp for the non­return valve.

56

Solving problems

Lift up the non-return valve and rinse
well under running water.

Remove all extraneous objects from
the non-return valve.

The drain pump is situated under the
non-return valve (see arrow).

Remove all extraneous objects from
the drain pump (watch out for glass
or bone splinters which are particu­larly difficult to detect and could
cause injury). Turn the drain pump
impeller by hand to check that there
are no more obstructions.

Carefully replace the non-return
valve and secure it with the locking
clamp.

The dispensing method will depend on the type of detergent being used.

1) Use this ratio for:

– detergent which is chlorine and phosphate free
– detergent which is chlorine free but contains phosphates
– liquid dishwasher detergent

In this instance the whole amount is placed in compartment II.

2) Use this ratio for:
– powder detergent which contains chlorine and phosphates (but not liquid detergent)

Divide the total amount, as shown, between compartment I and compartment II.

When washing a full load in the Normal Programme, the Universal Programme, the Universal Plus Pro­gramme or the Economy Programme at least 30 ml of detergent are required. If the detergent manu­facturer recommends using more than this you should dispense the amount they suggest.

If the “Top Solo” function is selected, the appropriate amount of detergent according to the level of
soiling should be added to compartment II only (approx. 2/3 of the total amount required for a full
load).
