Additional information and comments

Additional information and comments are marked by a box with thin line.

They are not necessarily critical to the operation of the dishwasher.

Additional instructions on how to operate the dishwasher are described step-by-step in a logical sequence.

Each new step is marked by a black square bullet point.

Example:

Open the dishwasher door.

Proper use

This dishwasher complies with current safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the dishwasher, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, installation, use and maintenance. Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.

With its short program running times and powerful cleaning performance, this Miele commercial dishwasher is intended for commercial use in commercial environments.

commercial environments

This appliance is designed exclusively for use as a "dishwasher" for cleaning cookware, glassware and cutlery only, as described in these instructions. Alterations or conversions to the dishwasher, or using it for purposes other than those for which it is designed, are not permitted and could be dangerous.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by improper or incorrect use or operation.

This commercial dishwasher is intended only for stationary indoor use.

The special inserts are to be used for their specific purpose only.

This commercial dishwasher is not suitable for the cleaning of medical products or devices.

Persons who lack physical, sensory or mental abilities, or experience with the appliance should not use it without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.

6

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper installation

Do not install the commercial dishwasher in areas at risk of explosion or freezing.

To ensure the stability of undercounter commercial dishwashers, they must only be installed beneath a continuous countertop that is bolted to the adjacent cabinetry.

In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the furniture in the area around the commercial dishwasher should be designed for commercial use.

Technical safety

The commercial dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired and then maintained by the Miele Service Department or an authorized Miele Service dealer. Installation, repair and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and Miele will not be held liable.

This commercial dishwasher must only be operated by appropriately trained personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.

Before using the commercial dishwasher, check it for any externally visible damage. Under no circumstances should you use it if it has been damaged. It could be dangerous.

In the event of a damaged or leaking commercial dishwasher, turn it off immediately and contact Miele or an authorized Miele Service dealer.

Faulty components may only be replaced by genuine Miele original parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guarantee the safety standards of the appliance.

The electrical safety of this commercial dishwasher can only be guaranteed when it is connected to a correctly installed grounding conductor system. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences for the lack or interruption of a grounding conductor (e.g. electric shock).

Be sure to follow the installation instructions in this manual and in the installation diagram.

Ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage, frequency, and fuse rating) match those of your electrical supply.

There must be no electrical sockets behind the commercial dishwasher since the depth of the installation niche may be too small and there is a danger of overheating if the dishwasher is pushed up against a plug (see the "Electrical connection" chapter for more information).

7

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Do not connect the dishwasher to the electrical supply by a multiple outlet box or an extension cable since they do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

Do not open the commercial dishwasher casing under any circumstances. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

The commercial dishwasher must not be used if the connecting cable is damaged. If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special connecting cable available from Miele. For safety reasons, this may only be performed by the Miele Service Department or an authorized Miele Service dealer.

Before maintenance, disconnect the commercial dishwasher from the electrical supply.

The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical components. It must not be dipped in water.

There are live wires in the water intake hose. Do not shorten the water intake hose, even if it is too long.

The built-in waterproof system offers reliable protection against water damage if the following conditions are met:

proper installation

proper maintenance of the dishwasher or exchange of parts in case of visible damage

closing of the water valve during longer absences (for example vacation)

The waterproof system will work even if the dishwasher is turned off. However, the commercial dishwasher must remain connected to the electrical supply.

8

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct use

This commercial dishwasher is designed for operation with water and detergents suitable for use in commercial or residential dishwashers only. Organic solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used.

This could cause an explosion, property damage due to the destruction of rubber or plastic, and the resulting leakage of liquids.

Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the commercial dishwasher to tip or become damaged.

After any plumbing work on the water supply, 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. If the door is opened, there is a danger of burning or scalding. Dishes, cutlery, 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.

The water in the wash cabinet is NOT safe to drink!

The pretreatment of items (for example with dishwashing liquid and other detergents), but also some types of soiling and some detergents, 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 chamber can cause damage to the dishwasher. If foam escapes, the program must be cancelled immediately and the machine must be disconnected from the electrical supply.

When using detergents and specialized products, it is essential that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Detergents must only be used for the purpose they are designed for and in the situation specified, to avoid material damage and serious chemical reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).

Do not inhale or ingest powder detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain 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.

Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical detergents may have on the material of the items being cleaned. Observe the detergent manufacturer's instructions with regard to storage conditions, use, and dosage.

To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet. Similarly avoid any materials with a corrosive effect.

9

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricants, or paint in the dishwasher. These substances could damage the dishwasher.

Do not hose down the dishwasher or its direct vicinity to clean it, e.g. with a water hose or high-pressure cleaner.

Ensure that the stainless steel outer casing of the appliance does not come into contact with solutions or steam containing acid to avoid any corrosion damage.

Be careful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and positioning them in the dishwasher so that you do not hurt yourself or create a danger for others. Cutlery should be placed in baskets in such a way that no injuries can occur.

Remove any coarse food deposits from the items being cleaned before loading them in the dishwasher.

Children in the vicinity

Supervise children when they are anywhere near this dishwasher. Do not let them play with it. There is a danger that children may lock themselves in the dishwasher.

Children must not be allowed to operate this dishwasher.

Keep children away from chemical agents. These contain irritant and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, nose and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be residual chemical agent in the cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swallowed or inhaled chemical agent.

Accessories

Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with this dishwasher. Miele will provide you with the article designations of the accessories.

Only use Miele baskets and inserts with this dishwasher. Using baskets and inserts made by other manufacturers, or making modifications to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning results, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage would not be covered by the guarantee.

hardness level

The dishwasher must be programmed to match exactly the hardness of your water.

Your local water supplier can tell you the water hardness level in your area.

Where the water hardness fluctuates (e.g. 8-18 gpg/8-17 °dH), always program the dishwasher to the higher value (in this example, 18 gpg/17 °dH).

It is useful to know your water hardness so that you can provide the service technician with this information in the event of any service calls.

Enter the water hardness below:

Opening and closing the door

Opening the door

The control panel also serves as a door handle.

Grasp the handle underneath the control panel and lower the door to open.

If the door is opened during operation all functions are automatically interrupted (see "Operation, Interrupting a program").

A program which is already running should only be interrupted if strictly necessary, e.g. if the wash load is moving about significantly.

Closing the door

Push the baskets in.

Raise the door upwards until the catch engages.

Filling the salt container

Reactivation

In order to achieve excellent cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft water. Hard water results in the buildup of calcium deposits on the load and the machine walls.

Water with a hardness of 4 gpg (= 4 °dH German scale) or greater must be softened. This occurs automatically in the built-in water softener.

In order for this process to function properly, the water softener must be set to the exact hardness of the water supplied.

Your local water authority will be able to tell you the exact degree of hardness of your water supply.

In the event of a service call at a later date, the technician's job will be easier if the actual water hardness is known. Please note your water hardness level here:

______________ gpg or °dH German scale

The water softener must be reactivated at regular intervals.

A special reactivation salt is required for this task.

Do not fill the salt compartment with dishwasher detergent (including liquid detergent).

Dishwasher detergent will damage the softener assembly.

Only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, or pure evaporated salt.

Miele Professional offer appropriate products.

Other types of salt may contain insoluble components which can damage the softener assembly.

If the hardness of your water is consistently less than 4 gpg (= 4 °dH German scale), it is not necessary to add any salt to the water softener. However, the water hardness will still need to be set.

24

Filling the salt container

Setting the water hardness level

The water softener can be set to between 0 and 73 gpg (0 - 70 °dH

German scale).

Select the Additional settings menu.

Select Water hardness and confirm your choice with the OK button.

Water hardness

19 °dH

(0 - 70 °dH)

The factory default setting for the water softener is a hardness of 20 gpg (19°dH German scale).

Please observe the table below when setting the hardness level.

If the water hardness fluctuates, e.g. between 8 and 18 gpg (8 and 17 °dH German scale), always be sure to set the dishwasher to the higher value, 18 gpg (17 °dH German scale) in this example.

Use the arrow buttons (higher) and (lower) to set the required water hardness level, and confirm your entry with the OK button.

Filling the salt container

Salt refill reminder

At the end of a program, fill the salt compartment with salt whenever the message appears in the display.

Acknowledge the message with the OK button.

If no salt is added, the symbol indicating low salt will appear beside the program name on the right.

The low salt message will appear again at the end of each program.

Refill reminders can be displayed during the program cycle by pressing the OK button.

If there are no additional refill reminders, the symbol in the display will go out after a few seconds once the salt has been refilled.

The salt refill reminder is deactivated if the dishwasher is set to a water hardness of 0 - 0.7 mmol/l (0 - 4 °dH German scale).

Appliance lockdown due to low salt

If the low salt reminder is ignored for several program cycles and the salt is not refilled, the appliance will be locked to prevent further use until more salt is added.

The following message will appear in the display shortly before this happens:

 

 

 

 

 

Machine locking

K

 

 

Insufficient salt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OK

 

 

 

 

 

Depending on the selected program and the water hardness setting, only a few more program cycles will be possible.

If additional program cycles are run without the salt being refilled, the dishwasher will be locked to prevent operation.

 

 

 

 

 

Salt container empty,

K

 

 

Program locked

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OK

 

 

 

 

 

When reactivation salt is added, the appliance will automatically unlock after a few seconds.

Miele PG8056U240 Instruction Manual

Filling the salt container

Filling the salt compartment

When adding salt, only open the door half way to avoid spills.

Press the button on the lid of the salt compartment in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.

Open the funnel.

Do not pour any water into the salt compartment!

Only add salt until the funnel of the salt compartment is full so that the funnel can continue to close properly. The salt compartment holds approx. 4.4 lbs (2 kg) of salt on the first fill depending the coarseness of the salt.

This number may be lower for subsequent refills, since there may still be salt left in the compartment.

28

Filling the salt container

Do not add more than 4.4 lbs (2 kg) of salt.

If there is water present in the compartment, it may be forced out by the added salt.

Clean any excess salt from around the compartment opening and the seal surrounding it, and then close the flap.

After refilling the salt compartment, run the Rinse program immediately (with the dishwasher completely empty) to remove any traces of salt from the interior. Salt residues can corrode the wash cabinet.

29

Adding rinse aid

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water does not cling and leave marks on cookware before the drying phase and helps cookware dry faster after it has been washed.

Rinse aid can be poured into the reservoir in the door or can be dispensed via an external dispensing DOS module (Optional accessory - see "DOS module").

Only fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid. Do not fill it with detergent (including liquid detergent). This will seriously damage the reservoir.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Suitable products are available from Miele Professional.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conversion to the external DOS module must be carried out only

 

 

by Miele Service or by an authorized dealer.
