7
Warning and Safety instructions
When running a disinfecting
programme in accordance with
official regulations on the control of
epidemics, the programme must not be
interrupted once it has been started
(see Cancelling a programme in an
emergency).
The standard of disinfection in the
disinfection programmes must be
routinely confirmed by the user. The
process should be regularly monitored
using thermo-electrical, chemical or
bio-indicators, and this should be fully
documented.
Disinfection programmes must not
be interrupted as this can have a
limiting effect on the disinfection result.
If interruption is unavoidable, however,
the complete programme must be
repeated.
For thermal disinfection, use
temperatures and temperature
holding times to achieve the required
infection prophylaxis in accordance
with current health and safety
regulations.
Only use Miele approved cleaning
agents in this machine. Using
unsuitable cleaning agents could
adversely affect the components of the
machine, as well as items being
cleaned.
For pre-treatment and/or cleaning,
only use low-foaming cleaning and
disinfecting agents which have been
approved by Miele. Foam can have an
adverse effect on the disinfection and
cleaning process.
Where a chemical additive is
recommended on technical
application grounds (e.g. a cleaning
agent), this does not imply that the
manufacturer of the machine accepts
liability for the effect of the chemical on
the items being cleaned.
Please be aware that changes in
formulation, storage conditions etc.
which may not be publicised by the
chemical manufacturer, can have a
negative effect on the cleaning result.
When using cleaning agents and
special application chemicals, it is
essential that the manufacturer’s
instructions are followed. Only use such
chemicals for the purpose and in the
situation specified, to the exclusion of
other chemicals, to avoid such dangers
as chemical reactions and material
damage.
The machine is designed for
operation with water and additive
cleaning agents only. Organic solvents
must not be used in this machine, as
there is the danger under certain
circumstances of fire or explosion.
(Although this is not the case with all
organic solvents, other problems could
arise with their use, for example
damage to rubber and synthetic
materials).
In critical applications where very
stringent requirements have to be
met, it is strongly recommended that all
the relevant factors for the process,
such as cleaning agent, water quality
etc. are discussed with the Miele
Application Technology specialists.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
If cleaning and rinsing results are
subject to particularly stringent
requirements (e.g. chemical analysis,
specialised industrial processes etc.), a
regular quality control test must be
carried out by the user to ensure that
required standards of cleanliness are
being achieved.
The special inserts should only be
used for their specific application.
Hollow instruments must be thoroughly
cleaned, internally and externally.
Empty any containers or utensils
before arranging them in the
machine.
Do not allow any remains of acids
or solvents, and in particular
hydrochloric acid or chloride solutions,
to get into the wash cabinet. Similarly
avoid any materials with a corrosive
effect.
The presence in compounds of any
solvents should be minimal (especially
those in hazard class A1).
To avoid any corrosion damage,
ensure that solutions or steam
containing hydrochloric acid do not
come into contact with the steel outer
casing of the machine.

Water softener
The water needs to be softened to
avoid calcium deposits building up on
utensils and in the machine itself.
To ensure a steady supply of soft water,
the water softener unit must always be:
1. correctly programmed and
2. the salt reservoir must be filled.
If the water hardness level is below 4
°d - German scale (0.7 mmol/l), the
reservoir does not need to be filled
with reactivation salt.
The machine is set at the factory for a
water hardness level of 19 °d (3.4
mmol/l).
If the water supply is harder or softer
than this (including below 4 °d or 0.7
mmol/l), the factory setting will need
to be changed following the
instructions in Setting the water
softener. See chart on the next page
for settings.
For future servicing it is useful to make
a note of your water hardness level.
Enter your water hardness level here:
^
°d / mmol/l
Your local water authority will advise
you on the water hardness in your area.
For fluctuating levels e.g. 8 - 17 °d (1.4
- 3.1 mmol/l) set the water softener to
the highest setting. In this example to
17 °d (3.1 mmol/l).
Important
The built-in water softener has settings
from 1 °d - 60 °d (0.2 - 10.8 mmol/l).
