Technical safety
This dishwasher must only be commissioned, repaired and
maintained by the Miele Customer Service Department, a dealer or a
suitably qualified service technician. Unauthorised installation,
maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the
user.
This dishwasher must only be operated by appropriately trained
personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.
Before using the dishwasher, check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not use a damaged dishwasher. This could be
dangerous.
In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the
power supply immediately and call the Miele Customer Service
Department, a Miele dealer or a suitably qualified service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele

mechanism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of
danger whilst the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on
the model) is active.
The maximum weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the
factory fitted door springs is 10–12kg (depending on the model).
Signs 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.
There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher.
Danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be
pushed up against a plug. See “Electrical connection”.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply via
a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Never open the casing of the dishwasher. Any contact with live
connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical
components of the dishwasher will endanger your safety and may
lead to appliance malfunctions.
The dishwasher must not be used if the electrical connection
cable is damaged. A damaged connection cable may only be
replaced by a suitable connection cable of the same type. For safety
reasons, such replacement may only be carried out by the Miele
Customer Service Department or a qualified service technician.
The dishwasher must be disconnected from the mains electricity
supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical
components. It must not be dipped in water.
13
Warning and Safety instructions

damage, provided that the following conditions are met:
- Installation has been carried out correctly.
- The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced
where it can be seen that this is necessary.
- The stopcocks have been turned off during longer periods of
inactivity (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.
While the dishwasher is under warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty is invalidated.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and
detergents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Organic
solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used in it.
This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic
components in the dishwasher and cause liquids to leak out of it.
You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over
it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
Do not sit, stand or lean on the opened door. This would tip or
damage the dishwasher.
After any plumbing work the water pipework to the dishwasher will
need to be vented. If this is not done, components can be damaged.
Please be aware that the dishwasher may be operating at high
temperatures. When the door is opened there is a danger of burning
or scalding. Items, 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 chamber before
taking them out.
The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.
Pre-treating items (for example with washing-up liquid and other
cleaning agents) as well as some types of soiling and some cleaning
agents can cause a build-up of foam in the wash cabinet. Foam can
have an adverse effect on the cleaning result.
Foam escaping from the wash cabinet can cause damage to the
dishwasher. If foam escapes the programme must be cancelled
immediately and the appliance must be disconnected from the
mains electrical supply.
15
Warning and Safety instructions
There may be a risk of slipping if liquid is spilt on the floor
depending on the type of flooring and footwear being worn. Keep
the floor dry where possible and take care to clean up any liquid
spills straight away. Take the necessary precautions when cleaning
up hazardous substances and hot liquids.
When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is
essential that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Cleaning
agents must only be used for the purpose they are designed for by
the manufacturer to avoid any material damage or the occurrence of
strong chemical reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).
Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical cleaning
agents may have on the material of the items being cleaned.
Observe the cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions with regard
to storage conditions, use and dosage.
Do not inhale or ingest powder detergent. Dishwasher detergent
contains irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in
the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Seek
medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled.
People aged 16 and above may refill the dishwasher detergent or
change the media canister provided that they have been trained to
do so.
Powder and liquid detergents containing active chlorine must not
be used. They can damage plastics and seals in the dishwasher.
To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids
or solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet or onto
the casing. Similarly avoid any ferrous materials with a corrosive
effect.
Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease
or paint in the dishwasher. These materials will cause damage to the
dishwasher.
16
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not clean the dishwasher or near vicinity with a hose or a
pressure washer.
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.
Remove any coarse food deposits and empty out any containers
or utensils before loading them in the dishwasher.
Safety with children
Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher.
Never allow children to play with the appliance. There is a danger
that children might shut themselves in the dishwasher.
Children under eight years of age must be kept away from the
dishwasher unless they are constantly supervised.
Children aged eight 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 recognise and understand the
potential risks of improper use.
If the automatic door opening mechanism is active, 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.
Keep children away from chemical agents. These contain irritant
and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, or
inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be residual chemical agent in the
wash cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has
swallowed or inhaled chemical agent.
17
Warning and Safety instructions
Accessories
Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.
Miele will guarantee the supply of functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the
discontinuation of your dishwasher.
Transport
Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position so that no
water flows into the electrical controls, as this would cause faults.
If you wish to transport the dishwasher, empty it and securely
fasten all loose parts such as baskets, hoses and cables.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety instructions.
18
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 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.

- A WiFi network
- A Miele networking solution, e.g. the
Miele@mobile app
- a Miele user account. The user
account can be created via the Miele
networking solutions, e.g. via the
Miele@mobile app.
The networking solution you are using
will guide you as you connect your
dishwasher to your home WiFi network.
Once your dishwasher is connected to
your WiFi network, you can use the
networking solution, for example, to
carry out the following activities:
- Call up information on the operating
status of your dishwasher
22
- Call up information on the
programme sequence of your
dishwasher
Connecting your dishwasher to your
WiFi network will increase energy
consumption, even when the
dishwasher is switched off.
Make sure that your WiFi network
signal strength is strong enough at
the installation site of your
dishwasher.
Before using for the first time
Availability of the WiFi connection
The WiFi connection shares a frequency
range with other appliances (including
microwave ovens and remote control
toys). This can give rise to sporadic or
even complete connection failures.
Therefore, the availability of featured
functions cannot be guaranteed.
Miele@home availability
If you wish to use the Miele@mobile
app or other Miele networking
solutions, the Miele@home services
must be available in your country.
The Miele@home service is not
available in every country.
For information about availability,
please visit www.miele.com.
Miele app
You can connect the dishwasher to the
Miele@mobile app.
The app is available to download free of
charge from the Apple App Store® or
from the Google Play Store™.
Miele@mobile app
23
Before using for the first time
Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory. There will be residual water in
the appliance from this test. It is not
an indication that the dishwasher has
been used previously.
Opening the door
In some programmes the door
automatically opens slightly to assist
the drying process.
This function can be deactivated, if
preferred (see “Settings” chapter,
“AutoOpen”).
At the end of the programme, if the
AutoOpen function is on, the door
locking pins automatically retract.
To prevent a technical fault, do not
hold the door locking pins firmly
when they are retracting.
If the door is opened during operation
all wash functions are automatically
interrupted.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water.
During operation, water in the
dishwasher may be very hot.

with extreme caution.
Risk of injury due to door
opening automatically.
The door may open automatically at
the end of a programme.
Keep the area around the door free
of obstructions.
To open the door, reach under the
door grip and pull.
Open the door fully to disengage the
locking mechanism.
24
Before using for the first time
Closing the door
Push the baskets right in.
Raise the door upwards until the
catch engages.
Risk of crushing due to the door
closing.
When closing the door, you are at
risk of shutting your fingers in it.
Do not put your hand inside the door
as it is closing.
Activating the safety lock

opening the dishwasher door. The door
can then only be opened by using a lot
of force.
To lock the door, push the slide
underneath the door grip to the right.
To unlock the door, push the slide to
the left.
25
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 0.9mmol/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
6.5mmol/l (36°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 4.4l of water
is required for this process. Energy
consumption increases by 0.015kWh
and the programme is extended by
3minutes.
The above only applies to the ECO
programme at a water hardness of
2.5mmol/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
(<3.8mmol/l, or <21°dH – German
scale), dishwasher salt is not required if
combination detergents are being used
(see the “Powder detergent and
detergent tabs” section in the
“Detergent” chapter).
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.
Damage to the water softener
from detergent.
Detergent will damage the water
softener.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with
powder or liquid detergent.
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than 0.9mmol/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 the “Water
hardness” section in the “Settings”
chapter).
If you only ever use combination
detergent products in your
dishwasher, you can turn off both refill
reminders if you wish (see “Refill
reminders” under “Settings”).
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.
26
Before using for the first time
Filling the salt reservoir
Before filling the salt reservoir for the
first time, you must fill it with approx.
2l 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.
Fill the salt reservoir with approx. 2l
of water (first use only).
Refilling the salt
When the refill reminder 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
Cold pre-wash programme
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.
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
2kg 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.
27
Before using for the first time
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling to and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase, and it
helps crockery dry faster after it has
been washed.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is
dispensed automatically.
Washing-up liquid or detergent
can cause damage.
Washing-up liquid and dishwasher
detergent will damage the rinse aid
reservoir.
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
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 detergent 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 in your
dishwasher, you can turn off both refill
reminders if you wish (see “Refill
reminders” under “Settings”).
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.
28
Before using for the first time
Adding rinse aid
Press the yellow button on the lid
of the rinse aid reservoir.
The lid will spring open.
Close the lid firmly until you hear it
click into place. Otherwise, water can
enter the rinse aid reservoir during a
programme.
Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This
prevents excess foam developing
during the next programme.
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage
for the best wash result (see
“Settings” chapter, “Rinse aid”
section).
Filling the rinse aid reservoir
When the refill reminder Refill rinse aid
appears in the display, the reservoir
contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 to 3
programmes only.
Refill with rinse aid in plenty of time.
Confirm with OK.
The rinse aid refill reminder will
disappear.
Fill with rinse aid until the filling level
indicator (arrow) changes to a dark
colour while the door is horizontally
open.
The rinse aid reservoir holds
approximately 110ml.

Caring for the environment
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.
- 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 chart”).
- 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.
- If you are manually dosing the
detergent, reduce the amount by 1/
when using powder 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 water
consumption of your dishwasher (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).
The following information can be shown
on the display:
- An estimate of the consumption
before the programme sequence
- The actual consumption at the end of
the programme
- The total consumption of the
dishwasher
1. Estimated consumption
After a programme has been selected,
first the name of the programme and
then the estimated water
consumption will appear in the display
for a few seconds.
The estimated consumption will be
shown as a bar chart. The more bars
that are visible (), the higher the
water consumption.
The estimated consumption function is
activated as standard. This function can
be deactivated, though, if preferred (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).
2. Displaying consumption
At the end of the programme, you can
call up the actual water consumption
for the programme that has just been
run.
Confirm the message Consumption
(OK) 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
water for all previously used
programmes of your dishwasher (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).
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.
31
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.
32
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.
Tip: Rub the silver dry with a cloth.
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.
- Visit http://www.mieleglasscare.com
for more information on glass care.

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).
Risk of damage due to
detergents containing active
chlorine.
Powder and liquid detergents
containing active chlorine must not
be used. They can damage plastics
and seals in the dishwasher.
Do not use detergents containing
active chlorine.
Application
The detergent selected must be
appropriate for the setting in which the
dishwasher is being used. If the
dishwasher is being used in a
commercial setting, it is
recommended that commercial
detergents are used.
You can easily order powder and liquid
detergents and other process
chemicals for your dishwasher for
commercial use via the Miele
professional website:
https://miele.co.uk/professional.co.uk.
Look for procare shine products under
Accessories and chemical cleaning
agents.
If you are using your dishwasher in a
private setting, it is recommended that
detergents designed for domestic
dishwashers are used. Suitable
detergents are available from Miele.
You can easily order powder detergents
and other consumables for your
dishwasher for domestic use via the
Miele@mobile app or by searching
under Consumables on the Miele
website:
https://www.miele.co.uk
44
Detergent
Powder detergents and detergent tabs
Use powder detergent or detergent
tabs only in the door dispenser
compartment.
Only use detergent tabs that are
quick dissolving.
Suitable detergent tabs are available
from the Miele range. When using
combination detergents (tabs that
offer rinse aid as well as water
softeners and detergent), it is
recommended that you also add
rinse aid and dishwasher salt (at a
lower concentration) owing to the
short programme running times and
potentially the water quality.
Add powder detergent or detergent
tabs to the detergent compartment.
Dispensing detergent
The detergent compartment holds a
maximum of 50ml.
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.
They also indicate the approximate fill
level in grams for powder detergents,
depending on the manufacturer and the
coarseness.
Follow the detergent dosage
recommended by the manufacturer
on the packaging.
Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30ml of
powder 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.
45
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

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.
46
You can also apply a small amount of
detergent to the inner panel of the
door in programmes that have a prewash stage (see “Programme chart”).

external dispenser pump for liquid
detergent (DOS module).
See “Settings menu - External
dispensing” to activate the dispenser
pump and set the dosage.
For special soiling and if using liquid
detergent, contact Miele for advice on
how to set the dosage for best results.
Refilling or changing containers
The dispensing module is equipped
with a level monitoring function. Refill
detergentwill appear in the display when
the level drops below the minimum.
As soon as the message appears in
the display, refill or replace the
container with a full one containing
the appropriate process chemical at
the end of the programme.
Confirm the message shown with the
OK button.
Replace the container in good time
to prevent the dispensing system
being emptied completely.
An empty dispensing system must
be vented before starting the next
programme.
Place the container on the open
dishwasher door or on a surface
which is easy to clean.
Take the lid off the media canister
and remove the suction lance. Place
the suction lance on the open wash
cabinet door.
Fill or replace the container, fit the
suction lance and secure the lid.
Observe the colour coding.
Feed the suction lance into the
canister until it reaches the bottom.
Wipe up any spilled process chemical
thoroughly.
Place the canister on the floor beside
the dishwasher or in an adjacent
cabinet. The container must be at the
same level as the appliance and not
be placed on top of or above the
appliance.
The dispensing system must then be
vented.
Checking consumption
Monitor the amount of process
chemicals used by regularly checking
the level in the container in order to
detect any dispensing irregularities.
Changing detergent
If you want to change the detergent
used, the system must first be rinsed
through with water to avoid a reaction
between the different detergents.
47

display before the programme begins.
During the programme, the time left
until the end of the programme is
displayed.
Symbols appear to indicate which stage
the programme is at:
Pre-wash/Soak
Main wash
Interim rinse
Final rinse
Drying
Finished
The displayed duration may vary for the
same programme. It is influenced by,
for example, the temperature of the
incoming water, the reactivation cycle
of the water softener and the amount of
crockery and how soiled it is.
Starting the programme
Touch the Startsensor control.
Confirm the previously displayed
messages with OK.
The programme starts.
The Startsensor control lights up.
During the programme sequence, you
can use OK to display the name of the

Risk of scalding due to hot
water.
During operation, water in the
dishwasher may be very hot.
During operation, only open the door
with extreme caution.
When a programme is selected for the
first time, the display will show the
average running time for a hot water
connection.
The running times shown in the
“Programme overview” chapter refer to
standard test loads and temperatures.
For each programme sequence, the
control module calculates the
programme running time according to
the temperature of the incoming water
and the amount of crockery.
50
Operation
End of programme
The buzzers might sound at the end of
the programme.
The programme has ended when the
display shows the message Finished.
In some programmes, if the “AutoOpen”
function is activated, the door will
automatically open slightly (see the
“AutoOpen” section in the “Settings”
chapter). This improves the drying
process.
If the Consumptionprogrammable
function is switched on, you can now
call up the actual water consumption of
the programme that has just finished
(see the “EcoFeedback consumption
indicator” section in the “Caring for the
environment” chapter).
The drying fan may continue to run for
a few minutes at the end of the
programme.
Energy management
To save energy the dishwasher will
switch off automatically 10 minutes
after the last time a sensor control is
pressed or after the end of a
programme.
You can switch the dishwasher back on
again with the sensor control.
If the dishwasher has been switched off
for longer than 1minute, you will need
to hold the sensor control for a bit
longer (wipe protection).
The dishwasher will not switch itself
off whilst a programme is running or if
there is a fault.
Risk of damage due to steam.
Steam from the dishwasher could
damage the edges of worktops when
you open the door at the end of the
programme if the fan is no longer
running.
If you have deactivated the
automatic door opening function (see
the “AutoOpen” section in the
“Settings” chapter), but would still
like to open the door at the end of
the programme, then make sure that
you open the door fully.
51
Operation
Switching off the dishwasher
The dishwasher can be switched off
at any time using the sensor
control.
You can also stop an ongoing timer by
switching off the dishwasher.

Risk of damage from leaking
water.
Water leakage can cause damage.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e.g.
whilst on holiday, the stopcock
should be closed as a precaution.
Unloading the dishwasher
Dishes tend to break and chip more
easily when they are hot. Allow the
dishes to cool until they are comfortable
enough to handle before unloading
them.
If you open the door fully after switching
off, the dishes will cool much faster.
First unload the lower basket, then
the upper basket and finally the 3D
MultiFlex tray (if present).
This will prevent water drops from the
upper basket and 3D MultiFlex tray
from falling onto the dishes in the
lower basket.
52
Operation
Interrupting a programme

soon as the door is opened.
When the door is closed again, the
query Select Start to continue appears in
the display.
The programme will continue from the
point at which it was interrupted when
you press the Start button.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water.
During operation, water in the
dishwasher may be very hot.
During operation, only open the door
with extreme caution.
Cancelling or changing a programme
If a programme is cancelled,
important programme stages may be
missed.
A programme should only be
cancelled in the first few minutes of
the programme sequence.
If a programme has already started and
you wish to cancel it, proceed as
follows:
Switch the dishwasher off using the
sensor control.
Confirm the query Switch appliance off
with OK.
If you would like to select another
programme:
Switch the dishwasher back on using
the sensor control.

Cleaning and care
Periodic checks
To prolong the service life of the
dishwasher, maintenance should be
carried out at least once a year by the
Miele Customer Service Department.
Maintenance covers the following:
- Electrical safety according to national
regulations (e.g. VDE0701/0702 in
Germany)
- Door mechanism and door seal
- Any screw connections and
connectors in the wash chamber
- Water inlet and drainage
- Internal and external dispensing
systems
- Spray arms
- Filter combination
- Sump including drain pump and nonreturn valve
- All baskets and inserts
Damage due to unsuitable
cleaning agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable
cleaning agents can alter or
discolour all 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.
If, despite this, limescale or grease
deposits build up in the chamber, these
can be removed with a proprietary
dishwasher cleaner (available from the
Miele Customer Service Department or
the Miele webshop). Follow the
instructions on the product packaging.
Clean the filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.
The following operational tests will be
carried out as part of the maintenance:
- A programme sequence will be run as
a test run
- Seals will be tested for water
tightness
- All relevant measuring systems will
be safety tested, including fault
displays
- Safety features
Check the condition of your
dishwasher regularly (approx. every
4–6months). In this way, faults and
problems can be avoided.
64
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the door and the door seal
The door seals and the sides of the
dishwasher door cannot be reached
and cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides and seals of the dishwasher
door with a damp cloth on a regular
basis to prevent the build-up of
mould.
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
- Wire wool
- Steam cleaners
65
Cleaning and care
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–
4months).
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.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation
system.
Switch the dishwasher off.
Rotate the screw thread of the middle
spray arm clockwise (see diagram)
and remove the spray arm.
Removing the lower spray arm
Remove the lower basket.
Removing the upper and middle spray arms
Take out the 3D MultiFlex tray (if your
dishwasher is fitted with one).
Push the upper spray arm upwards to
engage the inner ratchet. Then
unscrew the spray arm by rotating the
screw thread anti-clockwise.
66
Rotate the screw thread of the lower
spray arm anti-clockwise and pull
the spray arm upwards to remove.
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the spray arms
Use a pointed object to push food
particles in the nozzles into the spray
arm.
Rinse the spray arm thoroughly under
running water.
Refitting the spray arms
Refit the upper and middle spray
arms.
Refit the lower spray arm and ensure
that the filter combination lies flat in
the base of the wash cabinet.
Rotate the screw thread of the lower
spray arm clockwise until the arrow in
the viewing window points to the lock
symbol.
Make sure the spray arms can rotate
freely.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
The lower spray arm is used to
secure the filter combination.
Without filters, coarse 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.
67
Cleaning and care
Checking the filters in the wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soiling
from the suds solution. This prevents
soiling getting into the circulation
system and re-entering the wash
cabinet through 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.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation
system.
The filters can become blocked by
soiling that collects over time. The level
of soiling and time it takes before the
filters need cleaning will vary depending
on use.
Cleaning the filters
Switch the dishwasher off.
Remove the lower spray arm (see
“Cleaning and care” chapter,
“Cleaning the spray arms” section).
Before removing the filter
combination, remove any coarse
soiling to prevent it from entering the
circulation system.
Remove the filter combination.
The messageCheck filters will appear in
the display after every 50 programme
sequences.
Check the filter combination.
Clean the filter combination if
necessary.
Then confirm the message with OK.
68
Cleaning and care
In order to clean the inside of the
filter, pull the microfilter on the plastic
ring downwards and away from the
filter combination.
Rinse all the parts under running
water.
If necessary, use a soft cleaning
brush to remove soiling.
Insert the microfilter back into the
filter combination.
Refit the filter combination so that it
lies flat in the base of the wash
cabinet.
Refit the lower spray arm to the filter
combination using the screw thread.
Rotate the screw thread clockwise
until the arrow in the viewing window
points to the lock symbol.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
The lower spray arm is used to

cause a blockage.
Do not run a wash programme
without the lower spray arm or
without the filters.
69
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw
thread to protect the water inlet valve. If
the filter is soiled, insufficient water
flows into the wash cabinet.
Risk of electric shock from mains
voltage.
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
valve.
The housing must not be dipped in
water.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains.
To do this, turn off the dishwasher,
switch off at the socket and remove
the plug.
Remove the seal from the screw
thread.
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter slat and remove the filter.
Rinse the filter under running water.
Close the stopcock.

back onto the stopcock. Slowly open
the stopcock. If water drips out,
tighten the screw thread.
Never forget to put the filter back in
place after cleaning.
Cleaning the drain pump
If water remains in the wash cabinet
after the end of a programme, the water
has not been pumped away. The drain
pump may be blocked by foreign
objects. These are easy to remove.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains.
To do this, turn off the dishwasher,
switch off at the socket and withdraw
the plug.
Take the filter combination out of the
wash cabinet (see “Cleaning and
care” chapter, “Cleaning the filters”).

71
Cleaning and care
The drain pump (see arrow) is
underneath the cover.
Risk of injury from glass
splinters.
It is especially difficult to see glass
splinters in the drain pump.
Take care when cleaning the drain
pump.
Damage due to incorrect
cleaning.
The components are delicate and
can be damaged during cleaning.
Take care when cleaning the drain
pump.

Problem Cause and remedy
Knocking noise in the
wash cabinet
Rattling noise in the
wash cabinet
Knocking noise in the
water pipes
A spray arm is knocking against a wash item.
Carefully open the door and rearrange the wash
items that are obstructing the spray arm.
Wash items are insecure in the wash cabinet.

Unsatisfactory washing result
Problem Cause and remedy
The wash items are not
clean.
There are smears on
glassware and cutlery.
There is a bluish sheen
on the surface of glassware. The film can be
wiped off.
The wash items were not loaded correctly.
See notes in the “Loading the dishwasher”
chapter.
The programme was not powerful enough.
Select a more powerful programme (see
“Programme overview” chapter).
Not enough detergent was dispensed during manual
detergent dispensing.
Use more detergent or change the detergent you
are using.
Items are blocking the path of the spray arms.
Carry out a rotation check and if needed rearrange
the items so that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The filter combination in the wash cabinet is not
clean or was incorrectly fitted.
This may have caused the spray arm jets to become
blocked.
Clean and/or fit the filter combination correctly.
Clean the spray arm jets if necessary (see
“Cleaning and care” chapter, “Cleaning the spray
arms” section).
The rinse aid dosage is set too high.
Reduce the dosage (see “Settings” chapter, “Rinse
aid” section).
80
Problem Cause and remedy
The crockery is not dry
or cutlery and glasses
are flecked.
Glassware has a brown
or blue tinge. The film
cannot be wiped off.
Glassware is dull and
discoloured. The film
cannot be wiped off.
Tea or lipstick stains
have not been completely removed.
Plastic items are discoloured.
The rinse aid dosage is set too low or the rinse aid
reservoir is empty.
Replenish the rinse aid, increase the dosage, or
change the brand of rinse aid (see “Using for the
first time - Rinse aid”).
The crockery was taken out of the wash cabinet too
soon.
Leave the crockery in longer (see the “Unloading
the dishwasher” section in the “Operation”
chapter).

*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Electrical connection
All work on the electrical
connection must be carried out by
the Miele Customer Service
Department, an authorised Miele
dealer or a qualified electrician.
- The electrical installation must be in
compliance with current local and
national safety regulations
(DINVDE0100 in Germany).
- The connection to the power supply
must comply with national
regulations (plug and socket must be
accessible after the appliance has
been installed). An electrical safety
test can then easily be carried out,
e.g. after any service or maintenance
work.
- If the dishwasher is hard wired to the
power supply, connection should be
made via a mains switch with all-pole
isolation. The mains switch must
ensure a gap of at least 3mm
between all open contacts and must
be able to be locked in the off
position.
- Equipotential bonding should be
carried out if required.
This appliance can be converted to a
different type of power supply in
accordance with the conversion
diagram and wiring diagram supplied.
Converting the appliance to a
different type of power supply can
lead to longer programme running
times, resulting in increased energy
consumption.
The declared consumption values
will only be achieved if the appliance
remains in the state in which it was
delivered.
The data plates (with VDE test
certificate, etc.) are located at the back
of the dishwasher and on the inner
panel of the door.
The wiring diagram is supplied with
the dishwasher.
The conversion diagram is attached to
the electrical connection plinth panel.
Equipotential bonding connection
There is a screw connection point
marked at the back of the appliance,
to which additional equipotential
bonding can be connected.
- If replacing the mains cable, use only
original Miele spare parts or a
suitable cable with core cable ends.
- For technical data, see the data plate
or wiring diagram supplied.
The dishwasher must only be operated
with the voltage, frequency and fuse
rating shown on the data plate.

*INSTALLATION*
Installation
The Miele Waterproof system
As long as your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will provide extensive
protection against water damage
throughout its lifetime.
Water inlet
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
- The dishwasher must be connected
to the water supply in strict
accordance with current local and
national water authority regulations.
- The water used must at least comply
with European regulations for
drinking water quality.
If the water supply has a high iron
content, there is a danger of
corrosion occurring on items being
cleaned in the dishwasher, as well as
the appliance itself.
If the chloride content of the water
exceeds 100mg/l, the risk of
corrosion to items being cleaned in
the dishwasher will be further
increased.
- The water pressure (flow pressure at
the water connection) must be
between 50 and 1000kPa (0.5 and
10bar).
If the water pressure is lower than
this, the fault message Water intake
will appear in the display (see
“Problem solving guide”).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducing valve must be
fitted.
- A stopcock valve with a 3/4 inch
threaded union must be provided on
site. The valve should be easily
accessible, since the water inlet
should be shut off whenever the
appliance is not in use.
- The DN10 inlet hose is approx. 1.5m
long terminating in a 3/4inch screw
thread. A 1.5m long flexible metal
extension hose tested to 140bar
(14,000kPa) is available as an
optional accessory if required. On no
account may the inlet filter or the flow
regulator in the screw thread be
removed.
- In certain regions (e.g. mountainous
regions), the water composition may
cause precipitates to form, requiring
the use of softened water for the
dishwasher.
- The dishwasher complies with all
valid European standards on the
protection of drinking water.
86
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
To avoid any damage to the
appliance, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.
The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way as
it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
Regulations in the UK
To comply with the water regulations
requirements, this dishwasher must be
connected to the mains potable water
supply via the double check valve
supplied with the machine.
87
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Connecting the drainage system
- The appliance drainage system is
fitted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.
- The dishwasher drain hose should be
connected to a separate on-site drain
for the dishwasher only. If no
separate drain is available, we
recommend connecting it to a dualchamber siphon.
- The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22mm.
Hose clips are supplied with the
dishwasher.
- The drain hose must not be
shortened! The hose can be
extended using a connection piece to
attach a further length of hose. The
drainage length must not be longer
than 4m and the delivery head no
higher than 1m.
Hose installation when water drainage is low
If the on-site water drainage connection
is situated lower than the guide path for
the lower basket rollers in the door, the
water drain hose must be installed at
that level with a bend in it. Otherwise,
water may flow out of the wash cabinet
during a programme.
Tall unit installation
APFD101 and APFD102 are available
as optional accessories for use when
installing the dishwasher in a tall unit.
- The drainage system must be able to
accommodate a minimum drainage
flow of 16l/min.
Make sure that there are no kinks
in the hose, and that it is not
squashed or stretched.
