Description of the machine
Areas of application
This Miele dishwasher is a commercial
machine with a tank system and hood
for washing crockery and cutlery in
restaurants, hotels and other
commercial catering establishments.
How the dishwasher works
After switching the machine on, water is
heated up in the integral boiler. The
tank is gradually filled with the heated
water during the heat-up phase.
The tank system enables the
dishwasher to be used continuously, as
there is a constant supply of water at
the correct temperature available.
During the heat-up phase, the
programme control X lights up red to
indicate that the machine is not yet
ready. As soon as the water in the
boiler and tank reaches the correct
temperature, the dishwasher is ready to
use, and the programme control X
then shows green.
Crockery is loaded into baskets which
are designed for use in through-feed
dishwashers. The hood is lowered into
the shut position, and the machine is
now ready to use. During use, the
programme control X lights up blue.
The dishwasher is fitted with an auto
matic start mechanism on the hood.
Shutting the hood starts the machine on
the last selected programme.
The selected programme remains
active until a different programme is
selected.
The reservoir for the rinsing agent is
separate from the dishwasher, and
rinsing agent is dispensed
automatically as required.
Cleaning agent has to be added either
manually or via an optional liquid
cleaning agent dispenser.
If the hood is lifted whilst the machine is
in use, the programme and water flow
is interrupted until the hood is shut
again.
-
Optional features
Machines may be fitted with a
dispenser for liquid cleaning agents.
A water softener is also available, in
either an integrated or external version.

9
Warning and Safety instructions
Please follow the advice on
~
installation in these instructions and the
separate Installation diagram.
Before connecting the machine to
~
the mains supply, make sure the rating
on the data plate corresponds to the
voltage and frequency of the on-site
supply. Consult a qualified electrician if
in any doubt.
A damaged or leaking machine is
~
dangerous. Switch off at the mains im
mediately and call the Miele Service
Department or an authorised Miele Ser
vice Dealer.
Installation, maintenance and
~
repairs should only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with local
and national safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous and the
manufacturer will not be held liable.
If the supply cord is damaged, it
~
must be replaced by a Miele approved
service technician to avoid a hazard.
Never open the housing of the
~
machine. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous
to the user and can cause operational
faults.
Faulty components must only be
~
replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the machine
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
-
Do not connect the machine to the
~
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension
lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the machine (e.g.
danger of overheating).
During installation, maintenance and
~
repair work, the machine must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
–
the mains fuse is disconnected,
–
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
10
–
it is switched off at the isolator.
–
it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug removed.
–
it is switched off at the fused spur
connection unit.
Ensure that current is not supplied to
the machine until after maintenance
or repair work has been carried out.
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Take great care when handling
~
liquid agents and additives. These may
contain irritant or corrosive ingredients.
Do not use organic solvents as these
could cause an explosion.
Follow all relevant safety procedures
carefully. Wear protective gloves and
goggles. With all chemical agents, the
manufacturer's safety instructions must
be observed.
The water in the cabinet must not be
~
used as drinking water.
Only use cleaning agents formulated
~
for commercial dishwashers. Do not use
washing-up liquid. Using unsuitable
cleaning agents could adversely affect
the components of the machine, as well
as items being cleaned.
Avoid inhalation of powder cleaning
~
agents. They can cause burning in the
mouth and throat if swallowed, and can
inhibit breathing.
Please be aware that changes in
~
formulation, storage conditions etc,
which may not be publicised by the
chemical producer, can have a
negative effect on the cleaning result.
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.
When using cleaning agents and
~
specialised products, it is essential that
the manufacturer's instructions are
followed. Only use such chemicals for
the purpose and in the situation
specifed, to the exclusion of other
chemicals, to avoid such dangers as
chemical reactions and material
damage.
Only use low-foaming cleaning
~
agents. Incorrect cleaning agents, as
well as some types of soiling can cause
a build-up of foam in the machine.
Foam can have an adverse effect on
the cleaning process.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
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 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).
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).
Never clean the machine or near
~
vicinity with a water hose or pressure
washer.
To avoid any corrosion damage,
~
ensure that solutions or steam
containing hydrochloric acid do not
come into contact with the stainless
steel outer casing of the machine.
After any plumbing work the water
~
pipework to the machine will need to be
vented.
If this is not done damage can occur to
the machine's plumbing connections.
While the machine is under
~
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the guarantee will be
invalidated.
Be careful when sorting items with
~
sharp pointed ends and positioning
them in the dishwasher that you do not
hurt yourself or create a danger for
others. Sharp knives, forks etc. should
be placed in baskets with the pointed
ends facing downwards.
When using this machine in the
~
higher temperature ranges be
especially careful not to scald or burn
yourself when lifting the hood. Baskets
and inserts must be allowed to cool
down before they are unloaded. Any
water remaining in containers could still
be very hot. Empty them into the wash
cabinet before taking them out.
Do not touch the heating elements
~
or the heated surfaces on the wash
cabinet floor during or directly after the
end of a programme. You could burn
yourself. They remain hot for some time
after the end of the programme.
Empty any containers or utensils
~
before loading them in the dishwasher.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
This machine may only be used in a
~
non-stationary location, if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
Do not install the machine in an area
~
where there is any danger of explosion
or of freezing conditions.
Safety with children
To avoid the risk of injury, keep
~
children away from the machine at all
times. Do not allow them to play with it
or use the controls. They will not
understand the potential dangers
posed by it. There is a danger that they
could injure themselves or get into the
machine and lock themselves in.
Older children may only use the
~
machine when its operation has been
clearly explained to them and they are
able to use it safely, recognising the
dangers of misuse.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts
~
and accessories with this machine. The
use of non-Miele parts and accessories
will invalidate the guarantee.
Any Miele accessories must be
~
suitable for the purpose they are being
used for. Consult Miele for advice.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Disposal of your old machine
For environmental and safety
~
reasons ensure the wash cabinet is
completely drained of any residual
