Correct application
8
This appliance complies with all current local and national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.
Read the Operating instructions carefully before using the appliance for the first time. They contain important information on the safety, installation, use and maintenance of the appliance. You will prevent the risk of accidents and damage to the commercial dishwasher. Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.
This dishwasher with its short programme running times and
powerful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in
– Guest houses
– Clubs
– Nursing homes
– and other similar commercial environments.
This appliance is designed exclusively for use as a "dishwasher"
for cleaning crockery, glassware and cutlery 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 resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.
This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.The special inserts should only be used for their specific
application.
This dishwasher is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical
products or devices.
This dishwasher is not intended for use by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequences of incorrect operation.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
Correct installation
Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of
explosion or freezing conditions.
To ensure the stability of built-under dishwashers, they must only
be installed beneath a continuous worktop that is bolted to the adjacent cabinetry.
In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the
furniture in the area around the dishwasher should be designed for commercial use.
Technical safety
This dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired
and maintained by Miele Professional Service or a suitably qualified service technician. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and Miele will not be held liable.
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. Under no circumstances should you use the appliance if it is damaged. This could be dangerous.
In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the
mains immediately and call Miele Professional Service or a suitably qualified service technician.
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 appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installation 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 dishwasher, ensure that the connection data
on the data plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rating) match the mains electrical supply.
There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher, as this
creates a danger of overheating and a 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 by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Do not open the dishwasher casing. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
The dishwasher 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, the replacement must only be carried out by Miele Professional Service or a qualified electrician.
This 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 two electrical
components. It must not be dipped in water.
There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not cut the
hose, even if it is too long.
The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water
damage, provided the following conditions are met:
– installation has been carried out correctly,
– the commercial dishwasher is properly maintained and parts
replaced where it can be seen that this is necessary,
– the tap has 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.
Only use new hose sets supplied with the appliance. Old hose sets
should not be used.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance 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 warranty.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
Correct use
This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and cleaning
agents 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.
Only use cleaning agents formulated for use in commercial
dishwashers. Unsuitable cleaning agents could adversely affect components of the dishwasher or the items being cleaned.
Do not sit, stand or lean on the opened door. This could cause the
dishwasher to tip up and be damaged.
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. 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 wash 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 machine must be disconnected from the mains electrical supply.
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).
Do not inhale or ingest powder cleaning agent. Do not swallow
dishwasher cleaning agents. They can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat. Seek medical attention immediately if cleaning agent has been swallowed or inhaled.
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.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or
solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet. 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 substances will damage the dishwasher.
Do not hose the dishwasher or near vicinity down to clean it, e.g.
with a hosepipe or a pressure washer.
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 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
Supervise children in the vicinity of the dishwasher. Do not allow
them to play with it. There is a danger that children might shut 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, 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.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with
this dishwasher suitable for the application they are required for. Consult Miele for details on the type of accessories that can be used.
Only use Miele baskets and inserts. Using baskets and inserts
made by other manufacturers, or making modifications to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning results. Any resultant damage would not be covered by the guarantee.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Symbols used
Warning: Observe the operating instructions!
Warning: Danger of electric shock!
Disposal of your old dishwasher
For safety and environmental reasons, dispose of all process
chemicals according to the manufacturer's instructions and safety regulations. Safety goggles and protective gloves should be worn.
Remove or disable the door lock prior to disposal of the
dishwasher, so that children cannot become trapped inside. Ensure a safe removal and proper disposal of the appliance (see "Caring for the environment").
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
Caring for the environment
14
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally 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. 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.
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. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Opening and closing the door
24
Comfort door lock
The dishwasher is equipped with a Comfort door locking mechanism. This door locking mechanism helps drying by opening the door by a few centimetres at the end of the programme (except Super short,
Reactivation, Cold Drain). This function can be deactivated (see
"Settings , Drying").
Opening the door
The door can only be opened if the dishwasher is connected to the electricity supply and is switched on (the LED in the button is lit up).
The control panel also serves as a door handle.
Press the button to open the door. The LED in the button goes
out as soon as the door is unlocked.
Grasp the handle underneath the control panel and lower the door
to open.
Pressing the button during operation can interrupt the programme (see "Operation, Interrupting a programme").
A programme which is already running should only be interrupted if strictly necessary, e.g. if the wash load is moving about significantly.
Opening and closing the door
25
Closing the door
Push the baskets right in.
Raise the door upwards and push it gently until the catch audibly
engages. The door will be drawn automatically into its final closed position by the closing mechanism.
Do not put your hand inside the door as it is closing. Danger of injury!
If the door cannot be closed properly by the mechanism because it is obstructed by crockery or similar, the Door blocked message or
F433 will appear in the display (see "Problem solving guide") and
the mechanism will open the door.
Remove the obstruction from the vicinity of the door.
If too much force is used when closing the door, the Comfort door locking mechanism will reopen the door.
The dishwasher can only be guaranteed as waterproof if the automatic closing mechanism has drawn the door into the final closed position.
Opening and closing the door
26
Opening the door using the emergency release
The emergency release may only be used when it is no longer possible to open the door normally.
If the emergency release is operated during a programme cycle, hot water can escape.
Danger of scalding and burning!
The emergency release mechanism is located on the right beside the door lock between the door and the lid of the machine (or the worktop, with built-under machines).
The emergency release is operated using the tool supplied in the accessory pack with the operating instructions.
Insert the tool for the emergency release into the gap between the
lid and the door to the right of the lock. The right-hand edge of the tool should be aligned with the right-hand edge of the display.
Push the slider for the emergency release backwards with the tool
until the door opens slightly.
If you push against the door of the dishwasher at the same time, less force will be needed to operate the emergency release.
When the door has been opened using the emergency release, the following message will appear in the display:
Emergency release ­Door opened
The message is confirmed when the door has been released from the closing mechanism. The last programme used will then appear in the display.

Reactivation
In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft mains water. Hard water results in the build-up of calcium deposits on crockery and on the inner surfaces of the dishwasher.
Mains water with a water hardness of more than 0.7mmol/l (4°dH) must be softened. This occurs automatically in the integrated water softener. The water softener must be set to the exact hardness of the mains water.
Your local water authority can give you information about the exact water hardness 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. Therefore please enter the hardness level of your tap water here:
__________________mmol/l or _______°dH.
The water softener must also be reactivated at regular intervals. Special reactivation salt is required for this.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent.
Dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener.
Only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, or pure evaporated salt. Suitable products are available from Miele Professional.
Other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water softener.
If the hardness of your water is constantly less than 0.7mmol/l (= 4°dH), no salt is required for the water softener. However, the water hardness level must still be set.

Setting the water hardness level
The water softener can be set between 0 - 12.6mmol/l (0 - 70°dH).
Select the Further settings menu.Select Water hardness and confirm your choice with the OKbutton.
Water hardness
19
(0 - 70 °dH)
°dH
The factory setting for the water softener is set to a water hardness of
3.4 mmol/l (19 °dH). When adjusting the setting, please consult the following table.
With varying water hardness, always set the highest level. Where the water hardness fluctuates, e.g. between 1.4 - 3.1 mmol/l (8 - 17 °dH), always programme the dishwasher to the higher value, 3.1 mmol/l (17 °dH) in this example.
Use the and arrow buttons to set the water hardness required
and confirm your entry with the OK button.

Add salt reminder
Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for reactivation as soon as
the reminder appears in the display (if it appears during a programme, wait until the end of the programme).
Confirm the message shown with the OK button.
If salt is not added, the symbol indicating a lack of salt will appear beside the programme name on the right. The refill reminder will be displayed again at the end of every subsequent programme.
Refill reminders can be displayed during the programme cycle by pressing the OK button.
If there are no further refill reminders, the symbol in the display will go out after a few seconds when 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).
Machine lock-out in case of lack of salt
If the refill salt reminder is ignored for several programme cycles and the salt is not refilled, the dishwasher will lock itself against further use until it is refilled.
The following message will appear in the display shortly before this happens:
K
OK
Machine locking out. Insufficient salt
Only a few more programme cycles are possible, depending on the programme selected and water hardness level set.
The dishwasher is locked against operation if further programme cycles are run without salt being refilled.
K
OK
Salt container empty. Programme locked out
When reactivation salt is added, the machine will unlock itself after a few seconds.
