Adjusting the water softener
To avoid the build-up of calcium depos its on items being cleaned and disin
­fected in the washer/disinfector, the water may need to be softened (where the supply hardness exceeds 107 ppm CaCO3).
To ensure a steady supply of soft water, the water softener must always be:
correctly set
regenerated with salt as soon as the
REACTIVATION indicator light comes on.
The water softener should be set to cor respond with the water hardness upon installation of the washer/ disinfector.
Your local water authority can advise you on the water hardness in your ara.
Setting the water softener
­The hardness range is divided into 18
units and a zero position. The washer/ disinfector is set at the factory for a water hardness setting of 8, corre sponding to 339 ppm CaCO3. If your water supply is harder or softer than this, change the setting as follows:

Correcting minor problems
Unsatisfactory cleaning results
Unsatisfactory cleaning results may ap pear as drying spots, or as spots that look like corrosion.
Presumably corrosive spots often are bio-debris. They have the shape of dry ing spots, blurry edges, and the color of rust. Bio-debris may also appear on surfaces that were not decontaminated before processing.
Please observe:
Have the instruments been stored in
^
the washer/disinfector for more than 6 hours? If so, please run the washer/disinfector, even partially loaded, within 6 hours of loading.
^ Was enough detergent used? Please
check the dosage of the detergent and adjust, if necessary. Too little as well as too much detergent may de­teriorate the cleaning results.
^ Can both spray arms rotate easily,
when the washer/disinfector is loaded? If not, please rearrange the goods to be cleaned in a way so that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The water in the wash cabinet is not heated; the cycle lasts too long
­This washer/disinfector has a resettable temperature sensor which will shut off the heating elements in the case of over-heating. This could be caused if
­large articles cover the heating ele
ments or if the filters in the wash cabi net are blocked.
Remove the cause of overheating.
^
Take off the service panel (see "In
^
stallation"). Press in the blue reset button on the
^
temperature sensor.
If this switch trips repeatedly, contact the Miele Technical Service Department before using the washer/disinfector fur­ther.
