Guide to the appliance

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Please follow all basic safety precautions when operating this dishwasher.

This appliance conforms with all uniform safety codes and regulations. To avoid injury and machine damage, read the operating instructions carefully.

Repairs should only be performed

by a qualified and competent per son. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing (pull out the plug or “trip” the circuit breaker).

This dishwasher should only be in

stalled under a continuous countertop secured to adjacent cabinetry.

The dishwasher must be electri

cally grounded. Install the dish washer as outlined in the included In stallation instructions.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by improper use or for uses other than those for which the appliance is intended.

Only use detergents and rinse aids

recommended for residential dishwashers.

Do not use the dishwasher unless

all panels are in place.

Do not allow children to play in or

on the dishwasher.

Keep all detergents and rinse aids

out of the reach of children.

Dishwasher detergents contain

Sodium Silicate and Sodium Carbonate. In case of eye contact, immediately flush with water. Call a physician or poison control.

Do not tamper with the

controls.

Do not drink water from the dish

washer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When loading dishes and cutlery:

– Place sharp items away from the

door seal to prevent damaging the seal.

– Load knives pointing down to

prevent injuries.

Do not wash plastic items unless

they are labeled “dishwasher safe”. For items not labeled, check the manu facturer’s recommendations.

Do not abuse, sit, or stand on the

door or baskets of the dishwasher.

Remove the front door and cut off

the power cord of the dishwasher before disposing. This will help protect children from injury and accidentally locking themselves in.

Under certain conditions, hydrogen

gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several min utes before using the dishwasher. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Caring for the environment

Disposing of the packing material

The cardboard box and packing mate rial protects the appliance during ship ping. These materials are biodegrad able and recyclable, please recycle.

Disposing of an old machine

Before disposing of an old appliance, please make child resistant as outlined in the “Important Safety Instructions” by removing power cords and doors.

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 wa ter to the temperatures required by the wash program. This capability allows the option of connecting the machine 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.

^ 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 points.

Setting the water softener.

The water softener must be set to corre spond to the water hardness in your area. This can be obtained from your local water company, or by using a test kit that can be purchased from the Miele Parts Department.

The salt reservoir must only be filled with water and salt. Never fill it with de tergent.

Adding rinse aid.

Inadvertently 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.

Different wash programs should be se lected for different loads and different degrees of soiling. See the program chart for further program descriptions.

Add the correct amount of detergent.

Generally, 1 ½ tablespoons detergent is enough for most wash loads. Not enough or too much deter gent can lead to poor wash results.

Cleaning results vary among detergent brands. If you are not satisfied with the wash results, try another brand of de tergent.

Load dishes correctly.

Load dishes so that water can reach all

surfaces. Check that the spray arms are not blocked by items that are too tall for the baskets or hang through the bottom of the baskets. 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, if necessary.

See the corresponding sections for de

tailed information on the above points.

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

To open the door

^ Pull the handle. If the door is opened during operation,

the wash program is automatically interrupted.

Note: Instructions on how to open the dishwasher if a door panel has not yet been installed can be found in Section 3 of the Installation Instructions; “Installing the custom door panel”

To close the door

Push the baskets in.

Lift the door and push until it clicks

into position.

Before using for the first time

Water softener

For good cleaning results, the dish washer needs to operate with soft wa ter. Hard water results in the build up of calcium deposits on dishes and in the dishwasher. If water hardness is above 4 gr/gal (70 ppm), the water should be soft ened. 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 water company can tell you the

highest level of water hardness in your area.

If your tap water is consistently lower than 4 gr/gal (= 70 ppm) do not add dishwasher salt. However, the dishwasher must still be programmed to correspond to the water hardness in your area.

Programming and setting the water hardness level

The water hardness of your water sup ply must be programmed into the dish washer using the buttons on the control panel. The water hardness selector in the wash cabinet must also be set to the water hardness in your area.

Programming the water hardness

The programmed water hardness can be checked and adjusted using the buttons on the control panel. The indi cators will light after each button is pressed (n) on the control panel.

While programming, the water hardness can be cancelled by turning off the dishwasher with the “Off” button.

The water hardness is preset to 1 - 5 gr/gal (20 - 90 ppm).

Where water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 8 - 17 gr/gal (140 - 310 ppm), always program the dishwasher to the higher value (in this example 17 gr/gal / 310 ppm)!

If there is a fault it will help the service technician to know the hardness of your tap water.

Enter the water hardness below:

Setting the water hardness level selector in the wash cabinet

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

Selecting the correct setting will help minimize the effects of dishwashing on glass surfaces. Too high a setting will lead to poor cleaning results and an in crease in water spots left on dishes and cutlery.

Use a screwdriver to take the cover

off the water hardness level selector in the wash cabinet.

Use a coin or screwdriver to adjust

the water hardness level selector in the wash cabinet. There is a click as each setting is reached.
