9

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

This dishwasher is intended for use in domestic households and similar working and residential environments.

The dishwasher is not intended for outdoor use.

It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specified in these operating instructions, for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

The appliance 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 recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

10

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appli‐ ance unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the dishwasher unsuper‐ vised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance unsupervised.

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the dishwasher and do not let them play with it. There is a danger that children playing might shut themselves in the dishwasher.

If the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model) is active keep young children away from the area in which the door opens. Danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the open‐ ing mechanism.

Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

Keep children away from detergents. Dishwasher detergents 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 attention immediately if your child has swallowed or inhaled detergent.

11

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re‐ pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

 A damaged dishwasher is dangerous. Check it for any recognisa‐ ble damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re‐ quirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installa‐ tion tested by a qualified electrician.

Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Reliable and safe operation of this dishwasher can only be assur‐ ed if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

The dishwasher must only be plugged into the electricity supply via a suitable switched socket using a suitable fused plug (it must not be hard-wired). The electrical socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from the electricity supply at any time.

There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher. Dan‐ ger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against a plug.

The dishwasher must not be installed under a hob. The high radi‐ ant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob could damage the dishwasher. For the same reason it should not be instal‐ led next to open fires or other appliances which give off heat, such as heaters etc.

To avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequen‐ cy) match the mains electricity supply before connecting the dish‐ washer to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door springs.

The dishwasher may only be operated if the door opening mecha‐ nism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of danger whilst the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model) is active.

To check that the door opening mechanism is working correctly:

– the door springs must be adjusted equally 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.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (fire hazard).

The appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.

on a ship).

 Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.

 To avoid any damage to the appliance, the dishwasher must only be operated when it is connected to a fully vented plumbing system.

The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical component. It 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.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water damage, provided the following conditions are met:

– The dishwasher is correctly installed and plumbed in.

– The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced where it can be seen that this is necessary.

– the stopcock is turned off during longer absences from the home

(e.g. whilst on holiday).

The Waterproof system will work even if the appliance is switched off. However, the appliance must remain connected to the electricity supply.

The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between 30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 and 10 bar).

If the dishwasher gets damaged, switch it off at the mains imme‐ diately and call your Miele Dealer or the Miele Service Department.

While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be un‐ dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu‐ ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply (switch it off and withdraw the plug from the socket).

If the connection cable is damaged it must be replaced with a special cable of the same type (available from Miele) by a Miele au‐ thorised service technician only.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct installation

The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance with the installation diagram supplied.

Take care, both before and during installation of the dish‐ washer, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger of in‐ jury. Wear protective gloves.

The dishwasher must be correctly aligned to ensure problem-free operation.

In order to ensure stability, built-under and integrated dishwash‐ ers must only be installed under a continuous worktop which is se‐ cured to adjacent cabinetry.

If you want to convert your freestanding dishwasher to a built-un‐ der ("U") model, you will need to order the appropriate conversion kit. If you remove the existing plinth, you must replace it with a Umodel plinth. This is necessary to avoid the risk of injury caused by protruding metal parts.

The door springs must be adjusted equally 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 appliance may only be used with correctly adjusted door springs.

15

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.

Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher deter‐ gents 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.

You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.

Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dish‐ washer to tip and be damaged, and you could get injured.

Dishes can be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow them to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unload‐ ing.

Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dish‐ washers. Do not use washing-up liquid.

Do not use commercial or industrial detergents as these may cause damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical re‐ action (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).

Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.

This will cause serious damage to the reservoir.

Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dish‐ washer detergent 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.

Do not use other salts such as cooking salt, agricultural grade or gritting salt. These may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water softener.

16

Warning and Safety instructions

In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cut‐ lery is cleaned and dried more efficiently if placed in the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place knives and forks etc. with the handles upwards.

 Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water, such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dish‐ washer may cause them to melt or lose shape.

If you use the "FlexiTimer/Delay start" option (depending on mod‐ el), make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.

Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dis‐ penser and may not be thoroughly dispersed.

Please observe the information given in "Technical data" regard‐ ing the capacity of the dishwasher.

Accessories

Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manu‐ facturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept lia‐ bility.

Disposal of your old dishwasher

Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot acciden‐ tally shut themselves in. Make appropriate arrangements for the dis‐ posal of the appliance.

17

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mate‐ rial

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.

The packaging consists of the following materials:

Outer packaging:

– Corrugated cardboard made from up to 100% recyclable material: or: Polyethylene (PE) shrink wrap

– Polypropylene (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

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufactur‐ ing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appli‐ ance

Electrical and electronic appliances of‐ ten contain valuable materials. They al‐ so contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be po‐ tentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local com‐ munity waste collection / recycling cen‐ tre 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 appli‐ ance are labelled with international standard symbols.

18

Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is exceptionally eco‐ nomical in its use of water and electrici‐ ty.

You can make the most of your appli‐ ance by following these tips:

– For most economical dishwashing, make full use of the baskets without overloading the dishwasher.

– Choose the programme to suit the type of crockery being washed and the degree of soiling.

– Select the

ECO

programme (depend‐ ing on model) for energy-saving dish‐ washing. This programme is the most efficient in terms of its combined en‐ ergy and water consumption at cleaning normally soiled crockery.

– If your dishwasher is connected to a hot water supply select the

SolarSave programme for washing a lightly to normally soiled load. Because the water is not heated in this pro‐ gramme, crockery may still be slightly damper at the end of this programme than it would be with other pro‐ grammes.

– Follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations on detergent dos‐ age.

– When using powder or liquid deter‐ gent you can use

1

less detergent if baskets are only half full.

Caring for the environment

19

Caring for the environment

EcoFeedback consumption in‐ dicator

The

Consumption

function is used for calling up information about the energy and water consumption of your dish‐ washer (see "Settings menu, Consump‐ tion").

Three different types of information can be displayed:

– an estimate of the consumption be‐ fore the programme begins

– the actual consumption at the end of the programme

– the total consumption of the dish‐ washer

1. Consumption estimate:

After a programme has been selected, first the name of the programme and af‐ ter a few seconds the estimated energy and water consumption will appear in the display.

The estimated consumption levels will be displayed as a bar chart. The more bars (  ) in the display, the more ener‐ gy or water will be used.

The values are influenced by the pro‐ gramme selected and any programme options selected.

The display will change automatically to show the time remaining.

The consumption indicator is switched on as standard. However, you can also switch the indicator off (see "Settings menu, Consumption").

2. Actual consumption

At the end of the programme you can call up the actual amount of energy and water used by the programme which has just been run.

 Open the door at the end of the pro‐ gramme.

 Press OK when the

Consumption (OK) message appears in the display.

Switching the dishwasher off at the end of the programme will delete the actual consumption values for the programme which has just been run.

3. "Consumption" setting

The

Consumption

setting gives a total of the energy and water which has been used in all previous dishwasher pro‐ grammes (see "Settings menu, Con‐ sumption").

20

Before using for the first time

Opening 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 pre‐ ferred (see "Settings menu,

22

Before using for the first time

Water hardness

The display will change to the screen for setting the water hardness.

– The dishwasher must be program‐ med to the correct water hardness for your area.

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

– Where the water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 -

15 °d - German scale) always pro‐ gramme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7 mmol/l or 15 °d in this ex‐ ample).

In the event of a fault, it will help the service technician if you know the hard‐ ness 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).

 Use the  arrow buttons to select the hardness you want and confirm with OK.

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

The message

Set up finished

will then ap‐ pear in the display.

After confirming this with OK, the prompts 

Add salt

and 

Add rinse aid may appear.

 Add salt and rinse aid if necessary

(see "Before using for the first time -

"Dishwasher salt" and "Rinse aid").

 Confirm the messages with OK.

The programme selected will appear briefly in the display and the appropri‐ ate indicator light will come on.

Then, if applicable, the estimated ener‐ gy and water consumption for the pro‐ gramme selected will appear for a few seconds.

Finally, the display will show the esti‐ mated programme duration for the pro‐ gramme selected.

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

23

Before using for the first time

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

– approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt,

– domestic dishwasher detergent,

– rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers.

Every dishwasher is tested at the fac‐ tory. There will be residual water in the appliance from this test. It is not an in‐ dication that it has been used previ‐ ously.

Dishwasher salt

In order to achieve good cleaning re‐ sults, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft water. Hard water results in a build-up of calcium deposits on crock‐ ery and in the dishwasher.

Mains water with a hardness level high‐ er 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 in the dishwasher is suitable for a water hardness level of up to 12.6 mmol/l (70

°d - German scale).

The water softener requires dishwasher salt.

Depending on the water hardness level

(< 3.8 mmol/l, or 21 °d - German scale), dishwasher salt is not required if combi‐ nation tablets are being used (see "Op‐ eration, Detergent").

If the water in your area is very soft and constantly lower than 0.9 mmol/l

(5 °d - German scale) you do not have to add dishwasher salt. The prompt to add salt will be switched off automatically.

Dishwasher detergent will dam‐ age the water softener.

Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.

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

24

Adding salt

 When filling the salt reservoir only open the door halfway to ensure that all the salt gets into the reservoir.

Before using for the first time

Do not fill the reservoir with water.

 Press the button on the top of the salt reservoir in the direction of the arrow.

The flap will spring open.

 Add salt only until the reservoir is full or until water runs out of the opening.

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 may overflow.

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

 Immediately after filling the salt reser‐ voir, run the Quick wash programme with the Short programme option se‐ lected and without any crockery in the dishwasher, to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.

 Lift up the funnel.

25

Before using for the first time

Add salt reminder

 Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for reactivation when 

Add salt appears. (If it appears during a pro‐ gramme, wait until the end of the pro‐ gramme).

 Confirm with OK.

The refill reminder will go out.

Risk of corrosion.

Immediately after filling the salt res‐ ervoir, run the Quick wash pro‐ gramme with the Short programme option selected and without any crockery in the dishwasher to re‐ move any traces of salt from the cabinet.

After the salt reservoir has been filled, the refill reminder may still appear in the display if the salt concentration has not yet reached the correct level. If this is the case, confirm again with OK.

The refill reminder will be switched off if you have programmed the dishwasher for a water hardness below 0.9 mmol/l

(5°d - German scale).

If you only ever use combination prod‐ ucts containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch the reminders off if you wish (see "Set‐ tings menu - Refill reminders").

If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to add salt and rinse aid and to switch the re‐ minders back on.

26

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 res‐ ervoir and the amount set is dispensed automatically.

Inadvertently filling the rinse aid reservoir with washing-up liquid or powder or liquid detergent will dam‐ age the reservoir. Only pour rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers into the reservoir.

Alternatively, it is possible to use

– Household vinegar with a max. 5% acid content or

– Liquid citric acid up to 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

25% acid).

This would damage the dishwasher.

If you only ever use combination products containing rinse aid in your dishwasher, you do not need to add rinse aid.

Adding rinse aid

 Press the button on the lid of the rinse aid reservoir in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.

27

Before using for the first time

 Add rinse aid only until it is visible in the opening.

The rinse aid reservoir holds ap‐ prox. 110 ml.

 Close the flap firmly so that it clicks into place. Otherwise water can enter the rinse aid reservoir during a pro‐ gramme.

 Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This prevents over-foaming occurring dur‐ ing the next programme.

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

Rinse aid").

Add rinse aid reminder

When the 

Add rinse aid

message ap‐ pears, the reservoir contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 - 3 programmes only.

 Add rinse aid in plenty of time.

 Confirm with OK.

The refill reminder will go out.

If you only ever use combination prod‐ ucts containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch both reminders off if you wish (see "Set‐ tings menu - Refill reminders").

If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to add salt and rinse aid and to switch the re‐ minders back on.

Notes

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 will damage to the dishwasher.

Crockery can be loaded anywhere in the baskets, but the following notes should be observed:

– Do not place crockery and cutlery in‐ side 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.

– 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 to ensure better water coverage.

– 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 rotat‐ ing the spray arms.

Loading the dishwasher

– Make sure that small items cannot fall through the holders in the bas‐ kets.

Small items, e.g. lids, should there‐ fore 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 dish‐ washer may discolour if large quanti‐ ties of these foodstuffs find their way into the dishwasher on the crockery.

The stability of plastic items is not affected by this discolouration.

Cleaning silver cutlery in the dish‐ washer may also cause plastic items to discolour.

29

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 dish‐ washer.

– Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware: such items are not suitable for dishwash‐ ers.

– Plastic items which are not heat re‐ sistant: the high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.

– Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items: these may discolour or be‐ come matt.

– 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.

Please note

Silverware previously cleaned with a silver polish may still be damp or spot‐ ted 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, mayon‐ naise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine and marinades.

Aluminium components (e.g.

cooker hood grease filters) must not be cleaned with caustic alkaline commercial or industrial cleaning agents.

These may damage the material, or in extreme cases, there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical reaction

(such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).

Tip: When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are dish‐ washer-proof.

Glass care

– Clouding may occur on glasses after frequent washing. If delicate glass‐ ware is washed in the dishwasher en‐ sure that only very low temperatures are used (see programme chart), or a special glass-care programme is used (depending on model). This will reduce the risk of clouding.

– Purchase glassware which is dish‐ washer safe (e.g. Riedel glassware).

– Use detergents with glass protective additives (e.g. Miele CareCollection tabs).

– Visit "http://www.mieleglass‐ care.com/international/en/glasscare/ english" for more information on glass care.

Operation

Detergent

Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.

Active ingredients

Modern detergents contain various ac‐ tive ingredients, the most important of which are:

– Complexing agents to prevent calcifi‐ cation.

– Alkalis to aid removal of dried on soil‐ ing.

– Enzymes to break down starch and loosen protein.

– Oxygen based bleaching agents to remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, cof‐ fee, tomato sauce).

Most dishwasher detergents are mildly alkaline and contain enzymes and oxy‐ gen based bleaching agents.

Types of detergent:

– Powder and liquid gel detergents.

These detergents allow you to adjust the amount dispensed according to the amount of load and level of soil‐ ing.

– Tab detergents. These are suitable for most levels of soiling.

You can also buy combination products

(see "Programme options, Detergent‐

Agent", if applicable).

In addition to detergent, these products contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.

They are available as "3 in 1" or when they also contain other components such as glass and stainless steel pro‐ tective additives and enhanced clean‐ ing power, as "5 in 1", "7 in 1", "All in 1" etc.

Refer to the manufacturer's packaging as to whether combination products are suitable for the water hardness level in your area.

Please note that the cleaning and dry‐ ing results of combination detergents can vary greatly.

For optimum cleaning and drying re‐ sults, use Miele dishwasher detergent and add Miele salt and Miele rinse aid separately. See "Optional accesso‐ ries".

43

Operation

Detergent dosage

 Follow the dosage recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.

 Unless directed otherwise, use one detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml de‐ tergent to compartment II, depending on the level of soiling. With very heavy soiling you can also add a small amount of detergent to com‐ partment l.

 Tabs may not dissolve completely when the Quick wash programme (if available) is used.

Failure to dispense the recommen‐ ded amount of detergent may impair cleaning results.

Dishwasher detergents can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.

Avoid inhalation of powder deter‐ gents and do not ingest dishwasher detergent. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.

Keep detergent out of the reach of children at all times. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be de‐ tergent residues in the cabinet. Only add detergent just before starting the programme and close the door, acti‐ vating the safety lock (if your dish‐ washer is fitted with one).

44

Operation

Adding detergent

 Press the opening catch on the de‐ tergent dispenser. The flap will spring open.

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 packag‐ ing is properly closed after use to avoid it getting damp and clumping together.

For information

Compartment I holds max. 10 ml,

Compartment II holds max. 50 ml of detergent.

There are marks 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 a hori‐ zontal position.

Operation

Display

The estimated duration of the pro‐ gramme selected appears in hours and minutes in the display before the pro‐ gramme begins. During the programme, the time left until the end of the pro‐ gramme is displayed.

Symbols appear to indicate which stage the programme is at:

 Pre-wash / Soak

 Main wash

Interim rinse

Final rinse

Drying

Finish

The programme duration displayed may vary with the same programme. It is in‐ fluenced by, among other things, the water temperature at each intake, the reactivation process, the type of deter‐ gent, the amount of crockery and how dirty it is.

When a programme is selected for the first time, the display shows an average duration for a cold water intake.

The durations shown in the Programme chart refer to standard test loads and temperatures.

Each time a programme is run, the electronic unit takes the new conditions into account, and calculates the pro‐ gramme duration required.

47

Operation

Energy management

To save energy, the dishwasher will switch off automatically 10 minutes af‐ ter the last time a button has been pressed or 10 minutes after the end of the programme (see "Settings menu,

Optimise standby").

 Press the  button to switch the dishwasher back on.

The dishwasher will not switch off whilst a programme or the FlexiTimer is running or if there is a fault.

At the end of a programme

At the end of a programme, the In-op‐ eration indicator light will be visible flashing slowly with the door shut. The buzzer might also be sounding.

The programme has finished when 

Finished

appears in the display and the door has opened slightly (if applicable).

If the

Consumption

programmable func‐ tion is switched on, you can now call up the actual energy and water consump‐ tion of the programme which has just finished (see "Caring for the environ‐ ment, EcoFeedback consumption indi‐ cator").

The drying fan may continue to run for a few minutes at the end of the pro‐ gramme.

 Open the door completely to re-en‐ gage 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 pro‐ gramme if the door is closed.

If you have deactivated the auto‐ matic door opening function (see

"Settings menu, AutoOpen"), but would like to open the door as soon as the programme has finished make sure that you open the door fully.

Otherwise steam from the dishwash‐ er could damage the edge of the worktop because the fan is no longer running.

Switching off

At the end of a programme:

48

 Open the door.

 The dishwasher can be switched off at any time using the  button.

Switching the dishwasher off during a programme stops the programme.

Switching the dishwasher off during the run-up to a delay start time (FlexiTimer) will also stop the process.

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.

Operation

Unloading the dishwasher

Dishes tend to break and chip more easily when they are hot. Allow the dishes to cool until they are comforta‐ ble enough to handle before unloading them.

If you open the door fully after switch‐ ing 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 and cutlery tray from fall‐ ing onto the dishes in the lower basket.

49

Operation

Interrupting a programme

A programme is interrupted as soon as the door is opened.

If the door is closed again, the pro‐ gramme 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 nec‐ essary and exercise extreme caution when doing so. Before closing the door again, leave it ajar for approx.

20 seconds. This will enable the tem‐ perature in the wash cabinet to set‐ tle. Then raise the door up and push until the catch engages.

Changing a programme

If the detergent dispenser flap has already opened, do not change the programme.

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

 Open the door.

 Switch the dishwasher off with the  button.

 Switch the dishwasher on again with the  button.

 Select the programme you want.

 Start the programme by closing the door.

The in-operation indicator comes on to show that a programme has been star‐ ted.

 In this instance, confirm the message with OK.

 Start the programme by closing the door.

The option selected will remain active for that particular programme until the setting is changed.

Short

The Short option reduces the duration of programmes in which this option is available by up to 30%.

In order to achieve optimum cleaning results energy consumption may in‐ crease slightly with this option.

When used in combination with the

"Quick wash" programme, the Short option results in a wash programme without drying or automatic opening of the door (if available).

Energy save

The Energy save option reduces the en‐ ergy consumption of programmes in which this option is available by up to

20%.

In order to achieve optimum cleaning results the programme duration is ex‐ tended with this option.

Intensive lower basket

The Intensive lower basket option inten‐ sifies cleaning performance in the lower basket in programmes in which this op‐ tion is available.

Energy and water consumption are in‐ creased slightly due to the extended wash duration in the lower basket.

Extra dry

The Extra dry option improves the dry‐ ing performance in programmes in which this option is available.

Energy consumption is increased due to an extended fan running time and an increased final rinse temperature.

51

Programme options

DetergentAgent

For optimum cleaning results, the dish‐ washer automatically adjusts the pro‐ gramme sequence to the type of deter‐ gent being used. Depending on the programme, this can mean that the run‐ ning time and energy consumption vary slightly.

If you only ever use combination prod‐ ucts containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch the re‐ minders off if you wish (see "Settings menu - Refill reminders"). The Deter‐ gentAgent function will not be affected by this.

Please make sure that if you start us‐ ing dishwasher salt and rinse aid again, you switch the reminders back on.

Programme chart

Further programmes 

Quick wash

Programme with a short duration for re‐ moving fresh food residues that have not dried on. This programme is also suitable for glasses and plastic items that do not tolerate high temperatures.

Hygiene

Special programme for items which need to be hygienically clean, e.g. baby bottles and chopping boards.

Extra quiet

Very quiet programme with a longer du‐ ration. Suitable for mixed loads of crockery, pots and pans with normal, slightly dried on food residues.

SolarSave

This programme does not heat the wa‐ ter. To use it the water intake tempera‐ ture must be at least 45 °C / 115 °F

(see "Plumbing / Connection to the wa‐ ter supply"). This programme is suitable for mixed loads of crockery and glass‐ ware with normal, slightly dried on food residues.

Tall items 65 °C

Programme for very large heat-resistant items, (e.g. very deep pans). In this pro‐ gramme the upper basket is removed to make space for large items in the lower basket. This programme has a medium action to remove normal, slightly dried on residues.

Maintenance programme

The wash cabinet is largely self-clean‐ ing. However, if residues or soiling build up in the cabinet, they can be removed by running the "Maintenance pro‐ gramme" without a load. This pro‐ gramme is designed for cleaning the wash cabinet using care products such as Miele's dishwasher cleaner or condi‐ tioner (see "Optional accessories /

Dishwasher care products). Please fol‐ low usage instructions on the packag‐ ing.

60

Cleaning and care

Check your dishwasher regularly (ap‐ prox. every 4 - 6 months). 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 ex‐ ternal surfaces.

Cleaning the wash cabinet

The wash cabinet is largely self-clean‐ ing, 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 special dish‐ washer cleaner (see "Optional accesso‐ ries"). Follow the instructions on the packaging.

If you mainly use low temperature pro‐ grammes (below 50 °C), there is a risk of bacteria and unpleasant odours building up in the wash cabinet. To pre‐ vent this happening the dishwasher will automatically increase the temperature in the final rinse of the selected pro‐ gramme after several programmes us‐ ing low temperatures have been run.

 Clean the filters in the wash cabinet regularly.

Cleaning the door and the door seal

Mould could build up on the door seal and the sides of the dishwasher door as these surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and so not accessed and cleaned by the spray arm jets.

 Wipe the door seal regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.

 Wipe off any food or drink residues which may have dripped onto the sides of dishwasher door before clos‐ ing it.

Cleaning the control panel

 The control panel should only be wi‐ ped with a damp cloth.

Cleaning the reflector panel

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

 The reflector panel should only be wi‐ ped with a damp cloth or a suitable cleaning agent designed for use on plastic.

61

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the door front

Soiling that is left too long might become impossible to remove and could cause the external surfaces to alter or discolour.

Remove any soiling immediately.

 Clean the front with a clean sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid. After cleaning dry with a soft cloth.

A clean, damp microfibre cloth with‐ out cleaning agent can also be used.

To avoid damaging the external sur‐ faces, do not use:

– cleaning agents containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides,

– cleaning agents containing descaling agents,

– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow‐ der cleaners and cream cleaners,

– solvent-based cleaning agents,

– stainless steel cleaning agents,

– dishwasher cleaner,

– oven sprays,

– glass cleaning agents,

– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g. pot scourers, brushes or spong‐ es which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

– melamine eraser blocks,

– sharp metal scrapers.

– wire wool,

– steam cleaning appliances.

62

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 access‐ ing the circulation system and re-enter‐ ing the cabinet through the spray arms.

This 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

Check filters

will appear in the display after every 50 programme cycles (factory default setting).

You can set the interval for this mes‐ sage to appear to between 30 and 60 programme cycles (see "Settings menu,

Check filters").

 Check the filter combination.

 Clean it, if necessary.

 Then confirm the message with OK.

The message will go out.

Cleaning the filters

 Switch the dishwasher off.

 Turn the handle anti-clockwise to re‐ lease the filter combination .

 Lift the filter combination out of the dishwasher . Remove any coarse particles and rinse the filter well un‐ der running water.

Use a nylon brush if necessary.

Make sure that when cleaning the filters, no coarse soil falls into the circulation system, causing a block‐ age.

63

Cleaning and care

To clean the inside of the filter, the flap must be opened:

 Press catches  together in the di‐ rection of the arrows as shown, and open the filter .

 Rinse all the filters under running wa‐ ter.

 Then close the flap so that the catch engages.

 Replace the filter combination so that it lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet.

 Then turn the handle clockwise to lock the filter combination in place.

Take care when you are fitting the filter combination that it is se‐ cured in position correctly.

Otherwise coarse soil could get into the circulation system and cause a blockage.

64

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 - 6 months).

 Switch the dishwasher off.

Remove the spray arms as follows:

 Take out the cutlery tray (if your dish‐ washer is fitted with one).

 Push the top spray arm upwards to engage the inner ratchet. Then un‐ screw the spray arm.

 Pull the lower spray arm firmly up‐ wards to remove it.

 Push the middle spray arm upwards

 to engage the ratchet. Then un‐ screw the spray arm .

 Remove the lower basket.

 Use a pointed object to push food particles into the spray arm jets.

 Rinse thoroughly under running wa‐ ter.

 Replace the spray arms and check that they rotate freely.

Maintenance

Cleaning the water inlet filter

A filter is incorporated in the screw con‐ nection 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

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 un‐ ion.

This filter is available from Miele.

Cleaning the filter:

 Disconnect the dishwasher from the mains supply.

Switch off at the mains socket and withdraw the plug.

 Close the stopcock.

 Unscrew the inlet hose.

 Carefully remove the seal.

 Withdraw the filter using pointed pli‐ ers and rinse clean under running water.

 Replace the filter and seal, making sure they are sitting correctly.

 Reconnect the inlet hose to the stop‐ cock, making sure it goes on correct‐ ly and is not cross-threaded.

 Open the stopcock.

If water leaks out, the inlet hose may not be connected securely or it may have been screwed on at an angle.

 Unscrew and reconnect the water in‐ let valve correctly.

76

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.

 Disconnect the dishwasher from the mains supply. Switch off at the mains socket and withdraw the plug.

 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.

 Press the catch for the non-return valve inwards .

 Lift out the non-return valve  and rinse well under running water.

 Remove all foreign objects from the non-return valve.

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

 Remove all foreign objects from the drain pump carefully (watch out for glass splinters which are particularly difficult to detect). 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.

 Carefully replace the non-return valve.

Ensure that the catch engages correctly.

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

The Miele waterproof anti-leak system

Provided your dishwasher has been in‐ stalled correctly, the Miele WaterProof

System will protect you from water damage throughout its lifetime.

Connection to the water sup‐ ply

Water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking water.

– The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max.

60 °C.

We would only recommend connec‐ tion to a hot water supply if it is eco‐ nomical, e.g. a solar powered supply.

When connected to a hot water sup‐ ply all programme stages which would otherwise be carried out with cold water will be carried out with hot water.

– The

SolarSave

programme (if availa‐ ble) requires a hot water supply of between 45 °C (minimum) and 60 °C

(maximum).

The higher the water intake tempera‐ ture, the better the cleaning and dry‐ ing results.

82

– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.

A 1.5 m long flexible metal extension hose, pressure tested to 14000 kPa/

140 bar) is available as an optional accessory, if required.

– A stopcock with a 3/4" male thread must be provided on site.

– This appliance is constructed to comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 //

VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be connected to a suitable supply with‐ out an extra non-return valve if na‐ tional regulations permit.

– The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between

30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 und 10 bar). 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 reducer valve must be fitted.

Plumbing

After connecting the dishwasher to the water supply, check that all plumbing connections are watertight.

To avoid any damage to the ap‐ pliance, the dishwasher must only be operated when it is 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).

83

Plumbing

– The appliance drainage system is fit‐ ted with a non-return valve, which prevents dirty water from flowing back into the dishwasher via the drain hose.

– The dishwasher is supplied with ap‐ prox. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose with an internal diameter of 22 mm.

– The drain hose can be extended us‐ ing 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 ex‐ ceed 1 m.

– If the hose is to be directly fitted to the drainage outlet on site, use the hose clip supplied (see installation plan).

– The hose can be directed to the left or the right of the appliance.

– The on-site connector for the drain hose can be adapted to different widths of hose. If the connector pro‐ trudes too far into the drain hose, it will need to be shortened. Otherwise the drain hose may become blocked.

– The drain hose must not be short‐ ened.

Make sure that there are no kinks in the hose, and that it is not squashed or stretched.

After connecting the dishwasher to the drainage system, check that all plumbing connections are watertight.

Venting the drainage system

If the on-site drain connection is situ‐ ated 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 appliance to empty itself of water.

 To vent it: Open the dishwasher door fully.

 Pull the lower spray arm firmly up‐ wards to remove it.

 Cut off the top of the vent valve in the wash cabinet.

Water hardness

Your dishwasher is fitted with a water softener which you need to programme to the water hardness level in your area.

– The dishwasher must be program‐ med to the correct water hardness for your area.

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

– Where the water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 -

15 °d - German scale) always pro‐ gramme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7 mmol/l or 15 °d in this ex‐ ample).

 Select the water hardness you want, and confirm your selection with OK.

A tick  will appear beside the water hardness which has been set.
