Correct application

This commercial dishwasher conforms to 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 machine,
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.

Correct application

This commercial dishwasher with its short programme running

~

times and powerful cleaning performance is intended for
commercial use in offices, break areas, recreation rooms, staff
rooms, clubhouses, workshops, active kitchens and other similar
commercial environments.

It is also intended for use in domestic households and in similar
residential environments for example by customers in hotels, motels,
bed and breakfast and other similar establishments.

The machine is not suitable for continuous use.

~

It is is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical products or

~

devices.

The machine is designed for cleaning crockery, glassware and

~

cutlery only, as described in these instructions. Alterations or
conversions to the machine, 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.

8

Correct application

The machine is intended for stationary, indoor use only.

~

The special inserts should only be used for their specific

~

application.

This machine can only be used by people with reduced physical,

~

sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown
how to use it in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

9

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct installation

Do not install the machine in an area where there is any danger of

~

explosion or of freezing conditions.

In order to ensure stability, a built-under or integrated commercial

~

dishwasher must only be installed under a continuous worktop
which is secured to adjacent cabinetry.

Furniture and fittings installed near the machine must be of a

~

commercial standard able to withstand the effects of steam and
condensation.

Technical safety

This commercial dishwasher must only be installed,

~

commissioned, repaired and then maintained by the Miele Service
Department or an authorised Miele Service dealer. Installation,
repair and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous
and Miele will not be held liable.

The machine must be operated by appropriately trained

~

personnel only. They must be instructed and trained regularly.

Before using the machine 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 machine, switch off at the

~

mains immediately and call the Miele Service Department or an
authorised Miele Service dealer.

Repair work to the machine can only be carried out by the Miele

~

Service Department or an authorised Miele Service dealer. Any
unauthorised work will invalidate the guarantee.

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele

~

original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele
guarantee the safety standards of the machine.

10

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not connect the machine to the mains supply until it has been

~

fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door
springs.

The electrical safety of the machine can only be guaranteed if

~

correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic requirement is
observed and regularly tested and where there is in any doubt, the
on-site wiring system should be tested by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Please follow the advice on installation in these instructions and

~

the separate Installation diagram.

Before connecting the machine, check that the connection data

~

on the data plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rating) match the
mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.

There must be no electrical sockets behind the machine. Danger

~

of overheating if the machine were to be pushed up against a plug.
See "Electrical Connection".

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).

The machine must not be installed under a hob. The high radiant

~

temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob could
damage the commercial dishwasher. For the same reason it should
not be installed next to open fires or other appliances which give off
heat, such as heaters etc.

Do not 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.

11

Warning and Safety instructions

The machine must not be used if the electrical connection cable

~

is damaged. If the cable is damaged it must be replaced with a
special cable available from Miele. For safety reasons this must only
be done by the Miele Service Department or an authorised Miele
Service dealer.

The machine must be disconnected from the mains electricity

~

supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out. Do not
reconnect it until the maintenance or repair work has been
successfully completed.

The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical

~

component. The housing must not be dipped in water.

There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not cut the

~

water inlet hose, even if it is too long.

The integrated Waterproof System offers protection from water

~

damage, provided the following conditions are met:

– The machine is correctly installed and plumbed in.

– The machine is properly maintained and parts are replaced

where it can be seen that this is necessary.

– The stopcock is turned off when the machine is not used

for a longer period of time (e.g. during holidays).

The Waterproof system will work even if the machine is switched

~

off. However, the machine must remain connected to the electricity
supply.

In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or

~

other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which
may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered
by the guarantee.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

The commercial dishwasher is designed for operation with water

~

and cleaning agents suitable for use in dishwashers and
commercial dishwashers only. Organic solvents and flammable
liquid agents must not be used in this machine.
These could cause an explosion, damage rubber and plastic
components in the machine and cause liquids to leak out of the
machine.

Only use cleaning agents formulated for use in dishwashers or

~

commercial dishwashers. Using unsuitable cleaning agents could
adversely affect the components of the machine, as well as items
being cleaned.

Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the

~

machine to tip up and be damaged or cause an injury.

After any plumbing work the water pipework to the machine will

~

need to be vented.
If this is not done, components can be damaged.

Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over

~

it.

Please be aware that the dishwasher may be operating at high

~

temperatures. If the door is opened there is a danger or burning or
scalding. Crockery, 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 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.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

Foam escaping from the wash cabinet can cause damage to the

~

machine. If foam escapes from the machine the programme must be
cancelled immediately.

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 and
in the situation specifed, to avoid such dangers as chemical
reactions and material damage.

Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher 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 advice immediately if detergent has been
swallowed or inhaled. Follow the detergent manufacturer's safety
instructions.

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.

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.

Do not clean the machine or near vicinity with a water 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 any containers or

~

utensils before loading them in the dishwasher.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

Supervise children when they are anywhere near the commercial

~

dishwasher. Do not allow them to play with it. There is a danger that
children playing might shut themselves in the dishwasher.

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the

~

machine unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the commercial

~

dishwasher without supervision if they have been shown how to do
so in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

Keep children away from detergents. Dishwasher detergents

~

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 detergent residues in the cabinet.
Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swallowed or inhaled
detergent.

Accessories

Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with

~

this commercial dishwasher. Using spare parts or accessories from
other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot
accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

15

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material

The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.

The packaging consists of the following
materials:

Outer packaging:

– Corrugated cardboard made from up

to 100% recyclable material:
or: Polyethylene (PE) shrink wrap

– Polyproplylene (PP) strapping

Inner packaging:

– Chlorine and fluorine free expanded

polystyrene (EPS)

–

Base, lid frame and support battens
made from untreated natural wood
from renewable forests

–

Polyethylene (PE) protective wrap

Disposing of your old machine

Electrical and electronic machines
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your machine.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice.

Ensure that it presents no danger to
children while being stored for
disposal.

To enable sorting by type of plastic for
recycling, all plastic parts of the
machine are labelled with international
standard symbols.

16

Energy saving dishwashing

This commercial dishwasher is
exceptionally economical in its use of
water and electricity. You can make the
most of your machine by following
these tips:

If your water supply is suitable, this

^

commerical dishwasher can be
connected to a hot water supply for
further economies. If the water is
heated by solar panels, for example,
this would be energy efficient.
However, if your water is heated by
electricity and the dishwasher is
going to be used primarily for
glasses we would recommend
connection to cold water.

^ For most economical dishwashing

make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.

Caring for the environment

When using powder or liquid

^

detergent you can use
detergent if baskets are only half full.

1

/3less

^ Choose the programme to suit the

type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.

^

Select the ECO programme for
energy-saving dishwashing.
This Standard programme is the most
efficient in terms of its combined
energy and water consumption at
cleaning normally soiled crockery.

^

Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent
dosage.

17

Before using for the first time

To open the door

At the end of programmes with a drying
phase (see "Programme chart"), the
door will open automatically a little in
order to help the drying process.
This function can be deactivated, if
preferred (see "Settings menu,
AutoOpen").

^ Pull the handle.

To close the door

Push the baskets right in.

^

Then raise the door up, and push

^

until it clicks into position.

Do not put your hand inside the

,

door as it is closing. Danger of
injury.

If the door is opened during operation,
all functions are automatically
interrupted.

,

Keep the area around the door

free of obstructions.

19

Before using for the first time

Basic settings

Switch the machine on with the -

^

button.

If the dishwasher is being switched on
for the first time, the welcome screen
will appear.

Language

The display will then change
automatically to the screen for setting
the language.

See "Display" for more information
about the display.

^ Select the language you want, and

confirm your selection with the
middle button.

A tick

( will appear next to the

language that has been set.

Water hardness

The display will then change to the

–

The dishwasher must be
programmed for the water hardness
in your area.

–

Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.

In the event of a fault, it will help the
service technician if you know the
hardness of your local water supply.

Enter the water hardness below:

mmol/l or °d

The dishwasher is programmed at the
factory for a water hardness level of 2.7
mmol/l (15 °d - German scale).

Select the water hardness you want,

^

and confirm your selection with the
middle button.

See "Settings menu, Water hardness"
for further information.

The following two messages

rinse aid

and F Add salt may then

( Add

appear in the display.
Press any button to confirm these. The
display will change to show the main
menu.

These basic settings will be saved in
memory after the dishwasher has been
through one complete programme.

The welcome screen will no longer
appear once the dishwasher has been
through one complete programme.

–

Where the water hardness fluctuates,
e.g. between 3.1 - 4.5 mmol/l
(17 - 25 °d - German scale), always
programme the dishwasher to the
higher value (4.5 mmol/l in this
example).

20

Before using the machine for
the first time, you require:

approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt for

–

reactivation,

approx. 110 ml rinse aid,

–

Dishwasher detergent: see

–

"Operation".

Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory.
There will be residual water in the
machine from this test. It is not an
indication that it has been used
previously.

Filling the salt reservoir

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 in the
dishwasher.
Mains water with a hardness level
higher than 0.7 mmol/l (4° d – German
scale) needs to be softened. This takes
place automatically in the integrated
water softener. The water softener must
be filled with dishwasher salt for
reactivation. The water softener is
suitable for a water hardness level of up
to 6.5 mmol/l (36 °d - German scale).

Before using for the first time

If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than

0.7 mmol/l (4 °d - German scale),
you do not need to add dishwasher
salt. The water softener must,
however, still be programmed to
correspond to the water hardness
level in your area.

Do not fill the salt reservoir with

,

powder or liquid dishwasher
detergent. This will damage the
water softener. Make sure you have
picked up the correct packet of
dishwasher salt before filling the salt
reservoir!

,

Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation, as
other salts may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the
functioning of the water softener.

See "Settings menu, Water hardness
level" for information on programming
the water softener to the water
hardness level in your area.

21

Before using for the first time

When filling the salt reservoir only

^

open the door halfway to ensure
that all the salt gets into the reservoir.

Do not fill the salt reservoir with
water.

^ Press the button on the lid of the salt

reservoir in the direction of the arrow.
The flap will spring open.

^

Lift up the funnel.

^ Add salt only until the reservoir is full.

The salt reservoir holds approx. 1 kg
of salt, depending on the brand
used.

Do not add any more than 1 kg of
salt.

As the salt reservoir is filled, displaced
water can overflow.

^

Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening, and then close
the flap.

^

Run the Pre-wash programme imme
diately without any crockery in the
dishwasher to remove any traces of
salt from the cabinet.

-

22

"Add salt" message

Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher

^

salt for reactivation when the F

message appears. (If it appears

salt

during a programme, wait until the
end of the programme).

Confirm by pressing the middle

^

button.

The "Add salt" message will go out.

After the salt reservoir has been filled,
the "Add salt" message may still appear
in the display if the salt concentration
has not yet reached the correct level.
If this is the case, press the middle
button again.

The "Add salt" message will not appear
if the dishwasher has been
programmed for a water hardness level
of less than 0.7 mmol/l (4°d - German
scale).

Add

Before using for the first time

,

After refilling the salt reservoir,
run the Pre-wash or Short
programme immediately (without
any crockery in the dishwasher) to
remove any traces of salt from the
cabinet.

23

Before using for the first time

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase and
helps crockery dry faster after it has
been washed.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is
dispensed automatically.

Only fill the rinse aid reservoir

,

with rinse aid. Do not fill it with
washing-up liquid or powder or
liquid detergent. This will seriously
damage the reservoir.

Alternatively, it is possible to use
household vinegar with a max. 5% acid
content or liquid citric acid with a max.
10% acid content. The resulting rinsing
and drying quality will not, however, be
as good as when rinse aid is used.

,

Do not use vinegar with a higher
acid content (e.g. vinegar essence
containing 25% acid). This would
damage the dishwasher.

Adding rinse aid

^ Press the button on the lid of the

rinse aid reservoir in the direction of
the arrow The flap will spring open.

24

Add rinse aid only until it is visible in

^

the opening.

The rinse aid reservoir holds approx.
110 ml.

^ Close the flap firmly so that it clicks

into place. Otherwise water can enter
the rinse aid reservoir during a
programme.

Before using for the first time

"Add rinse aid" message

When the ( Add rinse aid message
appears, the reservoir contains
sufficient rinse aid for2-3programmes
only.

Add rinse aid in plenty of time.

^

Confirm by pressing the middle

^

button.

The "Add rinse aid" message will go
out.

^ Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This

prevents over-foaming occurring
during the next programme.

You can adjust the rinse aid dosage
for best results (see "Settings menu,
Rinse aid").

25

Loading the dishwasher

Preparing the load

Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.

There is no need to rinse items under
running water.

Do not wash items soiled with

,

ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease
or paint in the dishwasher.
These substances will damage 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 pieces where they may
be concealed.

– Load the crockery so that water can

access all surfaces. This ensures
that they get properly cleaned.

– Make sure that all items are securely

positioned.

Wide based items should be placed

–

at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.

The spray arms must not be blocked

–

by items which are too tall or hang
through the baskets.
If in doubt, test for free movement by
manually rotating the spray arms.

Make sure that small items do not fall

–

through the holders in the baskets.
Small items, e.g. lids, should
therefore be placed in the cutlery
tray or cutlery basket (depending on
model).

Some foodstuffs may contain natural
dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or
ketchup. Plastic items in the
dishwasher may discolour if large
quantities of these foodstuffs find
their way into the machine on the
crockery. The stability of plastic
items is not affected by this
discolouration.

–

Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pans, etc. must be inverted in the
basket.

–

Tall, narrow, hollow items, e.g.
champagne glasses, should be
placed in the centre of the basket.
This ensures better water coverage.

26

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.
Wooden handles may come loose
after being washed in a dishwasher.

Craft items, antiques, valuable vases

–

and decorative glassware are also
not suitable for dishwashers.

Plastic items which are not heat

–

resistant: the high temperatures in
the dishwasher may cause them to
melt or lose shape.

– Copper, brass, tin and aluminium

items may discolour or become matt.

– Colours painted over a glaze may

fade after a number of washes.

– Do not wash very delicate glassware,

or glassware containing lead crystal
in a dishwasher as clouding can
occur after frequent washing.

We recommend:

When purchasing new crockery and

–

cutlery, make sure they are
dishwasher-proof.

Clouding may occur on glasses after

–

frequent washing. If delicate
glassware is washed in the
dishwasher ensure that only very low
temperatures are used. This will
reduce the risk of clouding.

Wash particularly delicate glassware

–

by hand.

Please note:

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. It
may need to be rubbed dry with a soft
cloth.

Silver which has been in contact with
foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions,
mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish
brine and marinades.

,

Aluminium components (e.g.
grease filters) must not be cleaned
with caustic alkaline commercial or
industrial cleaning agents. These
may damage the material, or in
extreme cases, cause a severe
chemical reaction.

Operation

Detergent

Powder detergent

Only use powder dishwasher
detergent in the detergent dispenser
in the door.

Do not use tablet detergent as the
short programme durations will not
allow the tablets to dissolve
properly.

Put powder detergent into the

^

dispenser compartments.

Dispensing

^ Unless directed otherwise, add 20 to

30 g of powder detergent to
compartment II, depending on the
level of soiling.
With very heavy soiling you can also
add a small amount of detergent to
compartment l (see "Programme
chart").

Failure to dispense the
recommended amount of detergent
may impair cleaning results.

Liquid detergent

This commercial dishwasher can also
be fitted with an optional dispenser
pump for liquid detergent (G 60 Semi
DOS module). The pump is connected
externally.

See "Settings menu, External dispenser"
for information on activating the
dispensing system and setting the
detergent dosage.

The optional DOS module is supplied
with its own installation instructions.

For cleaning specific types of soiling,
and for information on the optimum
detergent to use for liquid
dispensing, please contact the Miele
Professional Department.

Maintenance of the dispensing
system

To ensure trouble-free operation,
regular maintenance should be carried
out at specified intervals by the Miele
Service Department or an authorised
Miele Service dealer.

The DOS module dispensing hoses
must be replaced at 1-1
intervals.

/2yearly

Follow the dosage recommended by
the powder/liquid detergent
manufacturer on the packaging.

35

Operation

Avoid inhalation of powder

,

detergents and do not ingest
dishwasher 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.
Keep detergent and other
household agents out of the reach of
children at all times. Keep children
away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be
detergent residues in the cabinet. To
avoid the danger of children coming
into contact with dishwasher
detergent only add detergent just
before starting the programme and
close the door.

Adding detergent

The flap is always open at the end of a
programme.

^ Add the required amount of

detergent and close the flap.

^ Make sure that the detergent

packaging is properly closed after
use to avoid it getting damp and
becoming lumpy.

For information

^

Press the opening catch on the
detergent dispenser. The flap will
spring open.

36

Compartment I holds max. 10 ml,
Compartment II holds max. 50 ml.

There are markings in compartment II
to assist with dispensing: 20, 30. The
marks indicate a level of approx. 20 or
30 ml when the door is open in the
horizontal position.
They also indicate the approx. level in
grammes (depending on the
manufacturer and the coarseness of the
detergent).

Switching on

Open the stopcock, if it is closed.

^

Open the door.

^

Make sure the spray arms are not

^

obstructed.

Switch the machine on with the -

^

button.

The ECO programme (which is the
factory default programme) will appear
in the display for a short time and the
appropriate indicator light will come on.

After a short while, the estimated
duration for the programme will appear
in the display.

You can alter the setting of the
dishwasher so that the last programme
used will appear in the display when
the machine is switched on (see
"Settings menu, Pre-select prog.").

Operation

You can now select additional
functions (see "Additional functions").

Starting the programme

Start the programme by closing the

^

door.

The In-operation indicator light comes
on to show that a programme has
started.
If any additional functions are selected,
the appropriate indicators will also light
up.

A programme can only be cancelled
in the first few minutes. Otherwise
the programme must continue to the
end so that important programme
stages (e.g. reactivating the water
softener) are not omitted.

Selecting a programme

Choose your programme according to
the type of load and the degree of
soiling.

The different programmes and their
uses are described in the Programme
chart later on in this booklet.

^

Select the programme required with
the X button.

The indicator light next to the selected
programme will come on.

When the indicator light for the 4
symbol lights up you can use the 4 ü
button to select one of the further
programmes.

37

Operation

Time display

The duration of the programme
selected appears in hours and minutes
in the 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:

1 Pre-wash
8 Main wash
% Interim rinse
( Final rinse

G Drying
O Finished

The time displayed may vary with the
same programme. This can be due
among other factors, to the water
temperature at each intake, the
reactivation process and the amount of
crockery.

When a programme is selected for the
first time, the display shows an average
duration. This will vary once the
machine has been used.

Programme durations will vary for other
electrical variants.

Standby

To save energy, the dishwasher will
switch to Standby mode a few minutes
after the last time a button has been
pressed or a few minutes after the end
of the programme. The display and the
indicator lights will go out and only the

- indicator light will flash slowly.

Press the - button to switch the

^

display and indicators back on again.

If the dishwasher is not switched off at
the end of the programme, it will switch
off completely after a few minutes in
Standby mode (see "Settings menu,
Optimise standby").

The dishwasher will not switch into
Standby mode whilst a programme
is running, if salt or rinse aid needs
to be replenished or there is a fault.

You can switch off the reminders to
replenish salt and rinse aid so that
the dishwasher will go into Standby
despite a lack of salt or rinse aid
(see "Settings menu, Refill display").
You cannot switch off fault
messages.

38

Operation

At the end of the programme

At the end of a programme, the
In-operation indicator light will be
visible flashing slowly with the door
shut.

If the door has opened slightly, and

Finished or AutoOpen appears in the

display, this indicates that the
programme has finished.

With "Additional drying" and
"AutoOpen" activated, the drying fan
will continue to run for a few minutes
after the programme has finished.

^ Open the door completely to

re-engage the door closing
mechanism.

You can now empty the dishwasher.

The In-operation indicator light will go
out 10 minutes after the end of the
programme if the door is closed.

,

If you have deactivated the auto
matic door opening function (see
"Settings menu, AutoOpen"), but
would still like to open the door at
the end of the programme, then
make sure that you open the door
fully. Otherwise steam from the
dishwasher could damage the edge
of the worktop because the fan is no
longer running.

Switching off

At the end of a programme:

Open the door.

^

Switch the machine off with the -

^

O

button.

The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is switched off with
the - button.

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.

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 cutlery tray
(depending on model).
This will prevent water drops from the
upper basket falling on to the dishes in
the lower basket or water drops from
the cutlery tray from falling onto the
dishes in the upper and lower baskets.

39

Operation

Interrupting a programme

A programme is interrupted as soon as
the door is opened.
If the door is closed again, the
programme will continue from the point
it was at before the door was opened.

Water in the dishwasher may be

,

hot. Danger of scalding.
Only open the door if absolutely
necessary and exercise extreme
caution when doing so. Before
closing the door again, leave it ajar
for approx. 20 seconds. This will
enable the temperature in the wash
cabinet to settle. Then raise the door
up and push until the catch
engages.

Changing a programme

If liquid detergent dispensing is not
being used and the detergent
dispenser flap has already opened,
then more powder detergent must
be added for the new programme.

If a programme has already started and
you wish to change it, proceed as
follows:

Open the door.

^

Switch the machine off with the -

^

button.

^ Switch the machine on again with the

Additional drying

In order to achieve a better drying
result and to minimise the amount of
steam which escapes when the door is
opened, the fan runs for longer at the
end of the programme when Additional
drying is selected. This function is not
available for all programmes.

With Additional drying selected, the
programme duration will increase by
approx. 20-30 minutes, depending on
the programme.

delayed, e.g. to benefit from economy
rates of electricity. A delay start time of
between 30 minutes and 24 hours can
be selected. The delay start time is set
in 30 minute steps.

When using the Delay start function,
make sure that the detergent
compartment is dry before adding
detergent. Wipe dry with a cloth if
necessary. If the compartment is
wet, powder detergent can become
lumpy and stick to the dispenser,
with the result that it is not fully
dispensed.

Cleaning and care

Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every4-6months). This
way faults and problems can be
avoided.

The external surfaces of the

,

dishwasher are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolour the
external surfaces.

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely
self-cleaning, provided that the correct
amount of detergent is always used.

If, however, there are limescale or
grease deposits in the cabinet, these
can be removed with a proprietary
dishwasher cleaner (available from
Miele).

If you mainly use low temperature
programmes, bacteria and unpleasant
odours can build up in the wash
cabinet. To prevent this, run an
intensive programme using powder
detergent after approx. 20 low
temperature programmes.

Cleaning the door and the door
seal

Wipe the door seals regularly with a

^

damp cloth to remove food deposits.

When the dishwasher is being

^

loaded, food and drink residues may
drip onto the sides of the dishwasher
door.
These surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and are not accessed by
water from the spray arms. Any
soiling should be wiped off these
surfaces before the door is closed.

Cleaning the reflector panel

The reflector panel for the In-operation
indicator light is situated in the
coverplate underneath the worktop.

^ The reflector panel and its plastic

holder should only be wiped with a
damp cloth or a suitable cleaning
agent designed for use on plastic.

44

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the control panel and
door front

Remove any soiling immediately.

,

If this is not done, it might become
impossible to remove and could
cause the external surfaces to alter
or discolour.

The control panel should only be

^

wiped with a damp cloth.

Clean the front with a clean sponge

^

and a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid. Then dry with a
soft cloth.
A damp microfibre E-cloth without
cleaning agent can also be used.

To avoid damaging the external
surfaces, do not use:

cleaning agents containing soda,

–

ammonia, acids or chlorides,

cleaning agents containing

–

descaling agents,

abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

–

powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,

solvent-based cleaning agents,

–

stainless steel cleaning agents,

–

dishwasher cleaner,

–

– oven sprays,

– glass cleaning agents,

– hard, abrasive sponges and

brushes, e.g. pot scourers,

– melamine eraser blocks,

– sharp metal scrapers,

– steam cleaning appliances.

45

Cleaning and care

Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet

The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution, preventing it
accessing the circulation system and
re-entering the cabinet through the
spray arms.

The dishwasher must not be

,

used without all the filters in place.

Collection of coarse soil may cause the
filters to clog. The level of soiling and
time it takes before the filters need
cleaning will vary depending on use.

The message
in the display after every 50 programme
cycles (factory default setting).

You can set the interval for this
message to appear to between 30
and 60 programme cycles (see
"Settings menu, Check filters").

Check filters will appear

Cleaning the filters

Switch the dishwasher off.

^

^ Turn the handle anti-clockwise to

release the filter combination a.

^ Lift the filter combination out of the

lock the filter combination in place.

,

Take care when you are fitting
the filter combination that it is
secured in position correctly.
Otherwise coarse soil could get into
the circulation system and cause a
blockage.

47

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the spray arms

Particles of food can get stuck in the
spray arm jets and bearings. The spray
arms should therefore be inspected
and cleaned regularly (approx. every 4

Cleaning the water inlet filter

A filter is incorporated in the screw
connection of the valve on the water
inlet hose. The filter must be cleaned
when dirty, otherwise insufficient water
flows into the wash cabinet.

The plastic housing of the water

,

connection contains an electrical
component. The housing must not
be dipped in water.

Recommendation

Maintenance

If the mains water contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we
recommend fitting a large-area filter in
the connection between the stopcock
and the water inlet hose threaded
union. This filter is available from the
Miele Spares Parts dept.

Cleaning the filter:

^ Switch the dishwasher off and

disconnect it from the mains.

^

Close the stopcock.

^

Unscrew the inlet hose.

Carefully remove the seal.

^

^ Withdraw the filter using pointed

pliers and rinse clean under running
water.

^ Take care when withdrawing the filter

not to pull out or dislodge the flow
regulator located underneath the
filter.

^ Replace the filter and seal, making

sure they are sitting correctly.

^

Reconnect the inlet hose to the
stopcock, making sure it goes on
correctly and is not cross-threaded.

^

Turn on the stopcock gradually to
test for leaks. If there is a leak, the
inlet hose might not be on securely,
or it may have been screwed on at an
angle. Unscrew and reconnect the
water inlet valve correctly.

59

Maintenance

Cleaning the drain pump and
non-return valve

If the water has not been pumped away
at the end of a programme the drain
pump or the non-return valve might be
blocked. They are, however, easy to
clean.

Switch off the dishwasher and

^

disconnect it from the mains.

Take the filter combination out of the

^

wash cabinet (see "Cleaning and
care", "Cleaning the filters").

^ Scoop the water out of the cabinet

using a suitable container or utensil.

The drain pump is situated under the
non-return valve (see arrow).

^ Remove all foreign objects from the

drain pump (watch out for glass or
bone splinters which are particularly
difficult to detect and could cause
injury). Turn the drain pump impeller
by hand to check that there are no
more obstructions. You will feel a little
resistance when you turn the
impeller.

^

Press the catch for the non-return
valve inwards a.

^

Lift out the non-return valve b, and
rinse well under running water.

^

Remove all foreign objects from the
non-return valve.

60

^

Carefully replace the non-return
valve, and secure it with the catch.

,

Ensure that the catch engages.

Be very careful not to damage
sensitive components when
cleaning the drain pump and the
non-return valve.

contacts.

The machine must only be operated
with the voltage, frequency and fusing
shown on the data plate.

This machine can be converted to a
different type of power supply in
accordance with the conversion
diagram and wiring diagram supplied.

Converting the machine to a
different type of power supply can
lead to longer programme durations
resulting in increased energy
consumption.
The values declared on the label will
only be achieved if the machine
remains in the state it was delivered
in.

Data plates showing relevant test
marks are located at the back of the
dishwasher and inside the door.

The Miele waterproof anti-leak
system

Providing your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.

Connection to the water
supply

The water in the machine must

,

not be used as drinking water.

The machine must be connected to

–

the water supply in strict accordance
with current local and national water
authority regulations (WRAS in the
UK).

UK only:

To comply with WRAS requirements,
this machine must be connected to
the potable water supply via the
non-return check valve supplied with
the machine.

The water pressure (flow pressure at

–

the take-off point) must be between
30 and 1000kPa (0.3 and 10bar). If
the water pressure is lower than this,
the fault message
the display (see "Problem solving
guide").If the water pressure is too
high, a pressure reducer valve must
be fitted.

A stopcock with a

–

must be provided on site. It should
be easily accessible so that the
water supply can be turned off when
the machine is not in use.

– The DN 10 inlet hose is approx.

1.5 m long terminating in a

–

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 machine, as well as in
the machine itself. If the chloride
content of the water exceeds 100 mg/l
the risk of corrosion to items being
cleaned in the machine will be further
increased.

68

To avoid any damage to the

,

machine, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.

The machine's drainage system is

–

fitted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.

The machine should preferably be

–

connected to a separate drainage
system on site.
If separate drainage is not available
contact Miele for professional advice.

The dishwasher is supplied with

–

approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
Hose clips are supplied for securing
it in position.

– The drain hose can be extended

using a connection piece to attach a
further length of hose.
The drainage length must not be
longer than 4 m, and the delivery
head must not exceed 1 m.

Venting the drainage system

If the on-site drain connection is
situated lower than the guide path for
the bottom basket rollers in the open
door, the drainage system must be
vented. Otherwise a siphoning effect
during a programme can cause the
machine to empty itself of water.

To vent it:

Open the dishwasher door fully.

^

– The drainage system must be able to

take a minimum drainage flow of
16 l/min.

–

The drain hose must not be
