Warning and safety instructions

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the
dishwasher unless they are constantly supervised.
Children aged 8 and older may only use the dishwasher without
supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner. Children must be able to understand and recognise the possible dangers caused by incorrect operation.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the dishwasher
unsupervised.
Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher.
Never allow children to play with the dishwasher. There is a danger that children might shut themselves in the dishwasher.
If the automatic door opening mechanism is active (depending on
the model), keep young children away from the area in which the door opens. There is a danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the opening mechanism.
Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children may become
entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over their head and risk suffocation. Keep packaging material away from children.
Keep children away from detergents. Detergents cause severe
skin burns and severe eye damage. They can cause burning in the mouth and throat, or inhibit breathing. It is therefore important to keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. Detergent residues could still be present in the dishwasher. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swallowed or inhaled any detergents.

Warning and safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a qualified technician.
Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before
using the dishwasher and in particular following transport, check it for any visible damage. Never use a damaged dishwasher.
The electrical safety of this dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present. If in doubt, the electrical installation should be checked by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate or lack of earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Reliable and safe operation of this dishwasher can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The dishwasher must only be plugged into the electricity supply
via a suitable switched socket using a fused 3-pin plug (it must not be hard-wired). The electrical socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from the electricity supply at any time.
There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher
because the building-in niche may be too small. Danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against a plug.
The dishwasher must not be installed underneath a hob. The high
temperatures radiated by hobs could damage the dishwasher below. For the same reason, the appliance must not be installed next to open fires or other appliances that give off heat, such as heaters etc., not normally found in a kitchen.
8
Page 9
Warning and safety instructions
Ensure that the connection data on the dishwasher’s data plate
(fuse rating, frequency and voltage) match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher. Compare these before connecting the appliance to the mains. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has
been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door springs.
The dishwasher may only be operated if the door opening
mechanism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of danger whilst the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on the model) is active. To check that the door opening mechanism is working correctly:
- The door springs must be evenly adjusted on both sides. They are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left half open (approx. 45° opening angle). It is also important that the door cannot fall open.
- The door locking pins automatically retract when the door opens at the end of the drying phase.
Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (fire hazard). Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply using a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead.
The dishwasher must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of
frost occurring. Frozen hoses are at risk of tearing or bursting. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.
To avoid any damage to the dishwasher, it must only be operated
when it is connected to a fully vented plumbing system.

Warning and safety instructions
The plastic housing of the water connection contains a solenoid
valve. The housing must not be dipped in water.
There are live wires in the water inlet hose. Do not cut the hose,
even if it is too long.
The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water
damage, provided that the following conditions are met:
- Installation has been carried out correctly
- The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced where this is noticeably required
- The stopcock is turned off during longer absences from the home (e.g. whilst on holiday).
The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher is switched off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to the electricity supply.
The water-connection pressure needs to be between 50 and
1,000kPa.
A damaged dishwasher could be dangerous. If the dishwasher
gets damaged, switch it off at the mains immediately and call your Miele dealer or Miele Service.
While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.
We recommend replacing defective components with original
spare parts. If original Miele spare parts are installed correctly, Miele ensures full compliance with safety requirements and the warranty remains valid.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the dishwasher
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply (switch it off and withdraw the plug from the socket).
10
Page 11
Warning and safety instructions
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be
replaced with a specific mains connection cable of the same type (available from the Miele Customer Service Department). For safety reasons this must only be done by the Miele Customer Service Department or a Miele authorised technician.

Correct installation

The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance
with the supplied installation sheet.
Be careful before and while installing the dishwasher.
Some metal parts pose a risk of injury/being cut. Wear protective gloves.
The dishwasher must be correctly aligned horizontally to ensure
problem-free operation.
In order to ensure stability, built-under and integrated dishwashers
must only be installed under a continuous worktop that is secured to adjacent cabinetry.
The dishwasher must only be built into a tall unit if additional
safety precautions are taken. In order to safely install the appliance in a tall unit, please use the Tall unit installation set and observe the installation sheet provided. Otherwise there is the danger of the unit tipping over.
The door springs must be evenly adjusted on both sides. They are
correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left half open (approx. 45° opening angle). It is also important that the door cannot fall open. The appliance must only be operated with properly adjusted door springs. If the door cannot be adjusted properly, contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
The maximum weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the factory fitted door springs is 10–12kg (depending on model).

Warning and safety instructions

Correct use

Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Risk of explosion.Dishwasher detergents can cause burning on the skin and in the
eyes, nose, mouth and throat. Avoid contact with detergents. Do not inhale powder detergents. Do not swallow dishwasher detergents. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
Avoid leaving the dishwasher door open unnecessarily. You could
injure yourself on the open door or trip over it.
Do not sit or lean on the open door. The dishwasher could tip
over. This could injure you or damage the dishwasher.
Crockery may be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow the
dishes to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading them.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.
Do not use any commercial or industrial detergents. These may
cause material damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical reaction (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
This will cause damage to the reservoir.
Do not fill the AutoDos (depending on model) with powder or
liquid detergent. Loose detergent will damage the AutoDos.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
Detergent will damage the water softener.
Only use special coarse-grained dishwasher salt or other pure
kitchen salt for reactivation. Other salts may contain insoluble additives that can impair the functioning of the water softener.
12
Page 13
Warning and safety instructions
In dishwashers with a cutlery basket (depending on model), knives
and forks should be placed with the handles upwards in the basket for safety reasons. Knives and forks placed with the handles downwards pose a danger of injury. However, cutlery placed handle down in the basket will come out cleaner and drier.
Plastic items that cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery, should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
If you use the timer option (depending on model), the detergent
compartment must be dry. If it is not, wipe it until dry. The detergent will clump together if the detergent compartment is not dry, and this may mean that it is not fully rinsed out.
Please observe the information given in the “Technical data”
chapter regarding the capacity of the dishwasher.

Accessories and spare parts

Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance and, if applicable, product liability claims will be invalidated.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of your dishwasher.

Transport

Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before
using the dishwasher, check it for any visible transport damage. Never use a damaged dishwasher.
Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position so that no
water flows into the electrical controls, as this would cause faults.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depending on territory) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Before using for the first time

Dishwasher salt

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 on the wash cabinet walls. Mains water with a water hardness level higher than 0.9mmol/l (5°dH – German scale) must be softened. This occurs automatically in the integrated water softener. The water softener is suitable for a water hardness level of up to
12.6mmol/l (70°dH – German scale).
In order to maintain the functions of the water softener, it must be reactivated regularly. Reactivation occurs automatically every ninth programme sequence. At the start of the next programme, an additional
4.4l of water is required for this process. Energy consumption increases by 0.015kWh and the programme is extended by 3minutes. The above only applies to the ECO programme at a water hardness of
2.5mmol/l (14°dH – German scale). For other programmes and water hardness levels, the frequency of reactivation will differ.
In order to be reactivated, the water softener requires dishwasher salt. Depending on the water hardness level (<3.8mmol/l, or <21°dH – German scale), dishwasher salt is not required if combination detergents are being used (see “Detergent – Active ingredients”).
If the water in your area is very soft and constantly lower than 0.9mmol/l (5°dH – German scale) you do not need to add dishwasher salt. The salt refill indicator will automatically switch off after the water hardness has been set accordingly (see “Settings – Water hardness”).
Damage to the water softener
from detergent. Dishwasher detergent will damage
the water softener. Do not fill the salt reservoir with
powder or liquid detergent.
Damage caused by using
unsuitable salts. Some types of salt may contain
insoluble components which can cause the water softener to malfunction.
Only use special coarse-grained dishwasher salt or other pure kitchen salt for reactivation.
If you only ever use combination detergent products in your dishwasher, you can switch off both refill reminders if you wish (see “Settings – Refill reminders”).
Please make sure that if you stop using combination detergents, you refill the dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch the refill reminders back on if required.
22
Page 23

Filling the salt reservoir

Before filling the salt reservoir for the first time, you must fill it with approx. 2l of water to enable the salt to dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used once, there is always sufficient water in the salt reservoir.
Remove the lower basket from the
wash cabinet and unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Before using for the first time
Danger of corrosion due to saline
solution. Water or saline solution will run out
of the reservoir when the cap is opened. Saline solution that runs out can cause corrosion in the wash cabinet and to the dishwasher load.
The salt reservoir should therefore only be opened in order to replenish the salt.
Fill the salt reservoir with approx. 2l
of water (first use only).
Place the funnel provided over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with dishwasher salt until the reservoir is full. The salt reservoir holds up to 2kg of salt, depending on the type of salt used.
Clean off salt residues from around
the salt reservoir opening. Next, screw the salt reservoir cap on again firmly.
Immediately after filling the salt
reservoir and each time you remove the salt container cap, run the 65°CQuickPowerWash programme with the Express programme option selected without a load in the dishwasher to dissolve and remove any traces of salt from the wash cabinet.
23
Page 24
Before using for the first time

Refilling the salt

When Refill salt appears in the
display, wait until the end of the programme and then refill the salt reservoir.
Confirm with OK.
The salt refill indicator will go out.
Risk of corrosion due to saline
solution. Saline solution that runs out can
cause corrosion in the wash cabinet and to the load items.
Each time you remove the salt reservoir cap, you must run the 65°CQuickPowerWash programme with the Express programme option selected without any load items in the dishwasher. This will dissolve and remove any traces of salt from the wash cabinet.
After the salt reservoir has been filled, the salt refill indicator may still appear in the display if the salt concentration has not yet reached the correct level. In this case, confirm the message again with OK.
The salt refill indicator will be switched off if you have programmed the dishwasher for a water hardness below
0.9mmol/l (5°dH – German scale).
24
Page 25
Before using for the first time

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is necessary to ensure that water does not cling and leave marks on crockery during the drying phase, and helps crockery dry faster after it has been washed. Rinse aid is poured into the container and the amount set is dispensed automatically.
Washing-up liquid or detergent
can cause damage. Washing-up liquid and detergent can
damage the rinse aid container. Only fill it with rinse aid formulated
for domestic dishwashers.
Alternatively, you could use liquid citric acid at a concentration of up to 10%. The resulting rinsing and drying quality on the crockery will not, however, be as good as when rinse aid is used.
Risk of acid damage.
The dishwasher can be damaged by high concentrations of acid.
Under no circumstances should you use citric acid with a higher acid content.
If you only ever wish to use combination products in your dishwasher, you do not need to add rinse aid. However, for optimum rinsing and drying results, use dishwasher detergent and add dishwasher salt and rinse aid separately.
If you only ever use combination detergent products containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch off both refill reminders if you wish (see “Settings – Refill reminders”).
Please make sure that if you stop using combination detergents, you refill the dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch the refill reminders back on if required.

Economical dishwashing

This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in its use of water and electricity. You can make the most of your appliance by following these tips:
- Washing in a dishwasher generally uses less water and energy than washing by hand.
- There is no need to pre-wash items under running water, and this unnecessarily increases water and energy consumption.
- For the most economical dishwashing, make full use of the basket capacity without overloading the dishwasher. This results in the most economical dishwashing in terms of energy and water consumption.
- Choose the programme to suit the type of crockery being washed and the degree of soiling (see “Programme overview”).
- You can connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply. A hot water connection is particularly suitable with energy-saving water heating sources, such as solar energy with a circulation system. If the water is heated by electricity, we would recommend connection to cold water.
- Select the ECOprogramme for energy-saving dishwashing. This programme is the most efficient in terms of its combined energy and water consumption for cleaning crockery with a normal level of soiling.
- Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations on detergent dosage.
- When using powder or liquid detergent, you can use 1/3 less
detergent if the baskets are only half full.

Caring for the environment

EcoFeedback consumption indicator

The Consumption function is used for calling up information about the energy and water consumption of your dishwasher (see “Settings” chapter, “Consumption” section).
The following information can be shown on the display:
- An estimate of the consumption before the programme begins
- The actual consumption at the end of the programme
- The total consumption of the dishwasher

1. Consumption estimate

After a programme has been selected, first the name of the programme and after a few seconds the estimated energy consumption and water consumption will appear in the display.
The estimated consumption function is activated as standard. This function can be deactivated, if preferred (see “Settings”, “Consumption” section).

2. Display consumption

At the end of the programme you can call up the actual amount of energy and water used by the programme that has just been run.
Confirm the Consumption
(OK)message with OK.
Switching the dishwasher off at the end of the programme will delete the actual consumption values for the programme that has just been run.

3. Total consumption

You can view the total consumption of energy and water for all previously used programmes of your dishwasher (see “Settings” chapter, “Consumption” section).
The estimated consumption will be shown as a bar chart. The more bars that are visible (), the higher the energy or water consumption.
The values are influenced by the programme, any programme options selected, the ambient conditions and the size of the load.
The display will change automatically from showing the estimated consumption to showing the time remaining.

Loading the dishwasher

General information

Remove coarse food residues from crockery.
There is no need to pre-rinse items under running water.
Damage can be caused by ash,
sand, wax, lubricating grease or paint.
These substances will contaminate the dishwasher and can then no longer be removed.
Do not wash items soiled with these substances in 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 items where they will cover one another.
- Load the crockery so that water can access all surfaces. This ensures that they get properly cleaned.
- The spray arms must not be blocked by items that are too tall or hang through the baskets. Test for free movement by manually rotating the spray arms.
- Make sure that small items cannot fall through the holders in the baskets. Small items such as lids should therefore be placed in the 3D MultiFlex tray or cutlery basket (depending on model).
Some foods may contain natural dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or ketchup. These dyes can discolour plastic items in the dishwasher if large quantities of these foods are in contact with the crockery inside the appliance. The stability of plastic items is not affected by this discolouration. Washing silverware can also cause plastic items to discolour.
- Make sure that all items are securely positioned.
- Hollow items such as cups, glasses, pots etc. must be placed upside down in the baskets.
- Tall and narrow hollow items, such as champagne glasses, should be placed in the middle of the basket rather than in the corners. This ensures the hollow items are more easily accessed by the water jets.
- Wide-based items should be placed at an angle so that water can run off them freely.
34
Page 35
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: such items are not suitable for dishwashers.
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant: the high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
- Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items: these may discolour or become dull.
- Colours painted over a glaze: these may fade after a number of washes.
- Delicate glassware and glassware containing lead crystal: clouding may occur over time.
Silver
Silver that has been in contact with foods containing sulphur can discolour. These include egg yolk, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine and marinades.
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.
Damage due to caustic alkaline
detergents. Aluminium parts (e.g. the grease
filters of cooker hoods) can be damaged by caustic alkaline detergents. In extreme cases, there is a risk of an explosive chemical reaction (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).
Aluminium components must not be cleaned in the dishwasher with caustic alkaline commercial or industrial detergents.
Tip: When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher-proof if you want to wash them in the dishwasher.

Glass care

- Clouding may occur on glasses after frequent washing in the dishwasher. When washing delicate glassware in the dishwasher, ensure that only a special glass care programme with very low temperatures is selected (see “Programme overview”). This will reduce the risk of clouding.
- Purchase glassware that is dishwasher-safe (e.g. Riedel glassware).
- Use detergents with glass protective additives.
Tip: Rub the silver dry with a cloth.

Detergent

Active ingredients

Damage caused by using
unsuitable detergents. Detergents that are not suitable for
domestic dishwashers can cause damage to the dishwasher or to the load.
Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers.
Modern detergents contain various active ingredients, the most important of which are:
- Water softening complexing agents to prevent calcification.
- Alkalis to aid removal of dried-on soiling.
- Enzymes to break down starch and loosen protein.
- Oxygen-based bleaching agents to remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, coffee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents are mildly alkaline and contain enzymes and oxygen-based bleaching agents.
There are different types of detergent:
- Powder and liquid gel detergents. These detergents allow you to adjust the amount dispensed according to the size of the load and level of soiling.
- Tab detergents. These are suitable for most levels of soiling.
As well as the usual detergents, combination products are also available. These contain rinse aid and water softener (dishwasher salt). Only use these combination detergents for the water hardness levels recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging. The cleaning and drying performance of these combination detergents can vary greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying results, use dishwasher detergent and add salt and rinse aid separately.
44
Page 45
Detergent
Risk of chemical burns from
detergent. Dishwasher detergents can cause
burning on the skin and in the eyes, nose, mouth and throat.
Avoid contact with detergents. Do not inhale powder detergents. Do not swallow dishwasher detergents. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
Keep children away from detergents. Detergent residues could still be present in the dishwasher. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. Do not fill the detergent dispenser until just before starting the programme and activate the door safety lock (depending on model).

Detergent dispensing

The detergent compartment holds a maximum of 50ml.
There are marks in the detergent compartment to aid with dispensing: 20, 30, max. When the door is opened to a horizontal position, they show the approximate fill level in ml and the maximum fill height.
Follow the detergent dosage
recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.
Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30ml of detergent to the detergent compartment, depending on the degree of soiling of the crockery.
Failure to dispense the recommended amount of detergent may impair cleaning results.
Some tabs may not dissolve completely when the programme QuickPowerWash is used.
45
Page 46
Detergent

Adding detergent

Press the yellow button on the lid
of the detergent compartment.
The lid will spring open. The lid will also open at the end of a programme sequence.
The detergent must not cause the detergent compartment lid to get stuck. This can prevent the lid from opening during the programme sequence.
Do not overfill the detergent compartment.
Ensure that the detergent packaging
is properly closed after use. This prevents the detergent from getting damp and clumping together.
Add the detergent to the detergent
compartment.
Push the lid shut until you hear it click
into place.

In this instance, confirm the message
with OK.
Start the programme by closing the
door.
Express

The Express programme option reduces the programme duration.

In order to achieve optimum cleaning results, the temperature, and therefore the energy consumption, will increase with this option.
The time by which the programme duration is shortened varies according to the selected programme.
Selecting the Express programme option may take precedence over other selected options.
When used in combination with the QuickPowerWash programme, the Express programme option results in a rinse designed solely for the purpose of flushing out the chamber to remove salt solution that leaked out after refilling the salt reservoir.
IntenseZone

The IntenseZone programme option increases cleaning performance in the lower basket.

Cleaning and care

Check the condition of your dishwasher regularly (approx. every 4–6 months). In this way, faults and problems can be avoided.
Damage due to unsuitable
cleaning agents. All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the external surfaces.
Only use cleaning agents formulated for use on the relevant surfaces.

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely self­cleaning, provided that the correct amount of detergent is always used.
The frequent use of low-temperature wash programmes (<50°C) increases the risk of contamination and odours inside the wash cabinet. Run the Intensive 75°C programme once per month to clean the wash cabinet and prevent odours from developing.
However, if residues such as limescale or grease have been deposited, use the
Maintenance programme to clean the
dishwasher (see “Programme overview – Additional programmes”) with dishwasher cleaner (see “Optional accessories – Appliance care”). Follow the instructions on the product packaging.
Miele cleaning and care products are available to order from the Miele Customer Service Department or from the Miele online shop.

Cleaning and care

Hygiene cycle

If you mainly use low temperature programmes, there is a risk of bacteria and unpleasant odours building up in the wash cabinet. If you repeatedly use low temperature programmes, you should regularly run a high temperature programme. This is to prevent the build­up of residues and odours.
You can activate or deactivate a Hygiene info message (see “Settings – Hygiene cycle”). If you deactivate this message, run the Intensive75°Cprogramme once per month to clean the wash cabinet and prevent odours from developing.

Cleaning the door and the door seal

The door seal and the sides of the dishwasher door cannot be reached and cleaned by the spray arm jets. As a result, mould can develop here.
Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
Wipe off any food or drink residues
that may have dripped onto the sides of dishwasher door.
61
Page 62
Cleaning and care

Cleaning the control panel

The control panel should only be
wiped with a damp cloth.

Cleaning the appliance front

Damage due to soiling.
Soiling that is left too long might become impossible to remove and could cause the external surfaces to alter or discolour.
It is therefore best to remove any soiling immediately.
Clean the appliance front with a clean
soft sponge and a solution of warm water and washing-up liquid. After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth. A clean, damp microfibre cloth without detergent can also be used.
To avoid damaging the external surfaces, do not use the following:
- Detergents containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides
- Detergents containing descaling agents
- Abrasive detergents, e.g. scouring powder, scouring liquid, or pumice stones
- Detergents containing solvents
- Stainless steel cleaning agents
- Dishwasher cleaner
- Oven cleaner
- Glass cleaning agents
- Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges that have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents
- Eraser stain remover blocks
- Sharp metal scrapers
62
- Wire wool
- Steam cleaners

Cleaning the spray arms

Particles of food can get stuck in the spray arm nozzles and bearings. The spray arms should therefore be inspected regularly (approx. every 2– 4months).
Never run a wash programme without using the spray arms.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system. Without filters, soiling can enter the
circulation system and cause a blockage.
Do not run a wash programme without the lower spray arm or without the filters.

Installation

The Miele Waterproof system

Provided that your dishwasher has been installed correctly, the Miele Waterproof system will protect you from water damage throughout its lifetime.

Water inlet

Danger to health due to wash
water. Water in the dishwasher is not
drinking water. Do not drink any water from the
dishwasher.
Health risk and risk of damage
due to contaminated inlet water. The quality of the incoming water
must correspond to the drinking water specification of the country in which the dishwasher is being operated.
Connect the dishwasher to a drinking water supply.
The dishwasher may be connected to cold or hot water (up to max. 65°C) supplies. If energy-saving water heating sources such as solar energy circulation systems are used, we recommend connection to the hot water. This saves both time and electrical energy costs. Hot water is used in all programmes.
The SolarSaveprogramme (if available) requires a hot water connection of between a minimum of 45°C and a maximum of 65°C (inlet temperature). The higher the water inlet temperature, the better the cleaning and drying results.
The inlet hose is approx. 1.5m long. A
1.5m long, flexible metal extension hose (tested to 14,000kPa/140bar) is available as an optional accessory from Miele specialist retailers or the Miele Customer Service Department.
85
Page 86
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
A stopcock with a ¾"threaded union is required for the connection. If a stopcock is not available, a qualified plumber should connect the dishwasher to the domestic water supply.
A non-return valve is not required. The appliance meets the requirements of the applicable DIN standards.
The water-connection pressure needs to be between 50 and 1,000kPa. If the water-connection pressure is too high, a pressure reducing valve must be fitted.
Risk of damage from leaking
water. The connection point is subject to
mains water pressure. Water leaking from it can cause damage.
You should therefore open the stopcock slowly and check for leaks. Correct the position of the washer and screw thread if appropriate.
Risk of damage due to excessive
pressure. A brief increase in the water pressure
can damage components of the dishwasher.
This dishwasher must only be operated when it is connected to a fully vented plumbing system.
Risk of electric shock from mains
voltage. There are electrical components in
the water inlet hose. The inlet hose must not be shortened
or damaged in any way (see illustration).
86
Page 87
*INSTALLATION*
Installation

Water drainage

The dishwasher’s drainage system is fitted with a non-return valve, which prevents dirty water from flowing back into the appliance via the drain hose.
The dishwasher is supplied with approx.1.5m of flexible drain hose with an internal diameter of 22mm.
The drain hose can be extended using a connection piece to attach a further length of hose. The drainage length must not be longer than 4m and the delivery head no higher than 1m.
If the hose is to be directly fitted to the drainage outlet on site, use the hose clip supplied (see installation plan).
The hose can be directed to the left or the right of the appliance.
The on-site connector for the drain hose can be adapted to different hose diameters. If the connector extends too far into the drain hose, it must be shortened. Otherwise, the drain hose can become blocked.
Lay the drain hose so that it does not kink and is not being subjected to pressure or tension.
Risk of damage from leaking
water. Leaking water can cause damage. After commissioning, make sure that
the water is not leaking.
The drain hose must not be shortened.
87
Page 88
*INSTALLATION*
Installation

Venting the water drain

If the on-site drainage connection is situated lower than the guide path for the lower basket rollers in the open door, the drainage system must be vented. Otherwise, a siphoning effect during a programme can cause the appliance to empty itself of water.
Open the dishwasher door fully.
Remove the lower basket.Insert a screwdriver into the middle
opening of the vent valve in the left
wash cabinet wall.
Press the screwdriver further into the
opening and push it through the
membrane behind.
The vent opening for the water drain is now open.
88
Page 89
*INSTALLATION*
Installation

Electrical connection

The dishwasher is “connector-ready” as standard for connection to an earthed socket.
The socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher has been installed. If that is not possible, ensure that a suitable means of disconnection is provided on the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the dishwasher to a multi-socket adapter or to an extension lead can overload the mains connection cable.
For safety reasons, do not use an extension lead or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical installation must comply with VDE0100 requirements.
For safety reasons, we recommend
using a type residual current device
(RCD) in the assigned electrical installation for connecting the dishwasher.
These operating instructions and the data plate indicate the nominal power consumption and the appropriate fuse rating. Compare this information with the data of the on-site electrical connection. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Do not connect the dishwasher to a stand-alone inverter such as those used with an autonomous power supply, e.g. solar power. When the dishwasher is switched on, power surges could result in a safety switch-off. This could damage the electronic module.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced with a specific mains connection cable of the same type (available from the Miele Customer Service Department). For safety reasons, such replacement may only be carried out by a qualified specialist or the Miele Customer Service Department.
