Reliable and safe operation of this dishwasher can only be assured 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. 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.
Danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against a plug.
The dishwasher must not be installed under a cooktop. The high radiant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a cooktop could damage the 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.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
To avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) matches the mains electricity supply before connecting the dishwasher to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
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 mechanism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of injury 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 (e.g. danger of overheating).
This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (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 valve. The housing must not be dipped in water.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
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 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 tap has been turned off when the appliance is not used for a longer period of time (e.g. during holidays).
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 connection point) must be between 50 and 1000 kPa (0.5 and 10 bar).
A damaged appliance could be dangerous. If the dishwasher gets damaged, switch it off at the mains and call Miele.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cable of the same type (available from Miele) by a
Miele authorised service technician only in order to avoid a hazard.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
This dishwasher is supplied with a special lamp (depending on model) to cope with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration).
This special lamp must only be used for the purpose for which it is intended. It is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be replaced by a Miele authorised technician.
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.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct installation
The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance with the installation instructions.
Be careful when installing the dishwasher. Wear protective gloves to avoid injury on any sharp metal components.
The dishwasher must be correctly aligned to ensure problem-free operation.
In order to ensure stability, built-under and integrated dishwashers must only be installed under a continuous worktop which is secured to adjacent cabinetry.
If you want to convert your freestanding dishwasher to a builtunder ("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 on either side need to be evenly adjusted. They are correctly adjusted if the half-opened door (approx. 45° door opening angle) remains in this position when it is released. The door must not fall down under its own weight.
The appliance may only be used with correctly adjusted door springs.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion!
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline and contain irritants or corrosive ingredients. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed, and can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat, or inhibit breathing.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Seek medical advice immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled, e.g. Poisons
Information Centre (Australia) or National Poisons Centre (NZ).
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily as someone could trip over it and be injured by it.
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dishwasher to tip and be damaged, and you could get injured.
Dishes can be very hot at the end of a programme. Allow them to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers. 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 reaction (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 dishwasher 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.
15
Warning and Safety instructions
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model) cutlery 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 and crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
If you use the "FlexiTimer/Delay start" option (depending on model), make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dispenser and may not be thoroughly dispersed.
Please observe the information given in "Technical data" regarding the capacity of the dishwasher.
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
Disposal of your old dishwasher
Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot accidentally shut themselves in. Remove or destroy the locking bracket of the door lock, and make appropriate arrangements for the disposal of the appliance.
16
Caring for the environment
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.
17
Caring for the environment
Energy-saving dishwashing
This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in its use of water and electricity.
You can make the most of your appliance by following these tips:
– 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 for energy-saving dishwashing. This 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.
– When using powder or liquid detergent you can use
1
/
3
less detergent if baskets are only half full.
– If your household water system is suitable, this 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, we would recommend connection to cold water.
You can find further tips on energysaving dishwashing in "Miele's guide to dishwashing".
18
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 preferred (see "Programme options,
AutoOpen").
Closing the door
Push the baskets right in.
Then lift the door upwards and push until it clicks into position.
Danger of injury!
Do not put your hand inside the door as it is closing.
Safety lock
The child safety lock can be used to prevent children opening the dishwasher. The door can then only be opened by using a lot of force.
To open the door, reach under the door grip and pull.
Open the door fully so that the door catch rail retracts again.
If the door is opened during operation, all functions are automatically interrupted.
Water in the dishwasher may be hot. Danger of scalding!
Only open the door during operation if absolutely necessary and exercise extreme caution when doing so.
Keep the area around the door free of obstructions.
To lock the door, push the slide underneath the door grip to the right.
To unlock the door, push the slide to the left.
19
Before using for the first time
Water softener
In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft water. Hard water results in a 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 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 combination tablets are being used
(see "Operation, Detergent").
– The dishwasher must be programmed 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 programme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7 mmol/l or 15 °d in this example).
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
The dishwasher is programmed at the factory for a water hardness level of 0.2
mmol/l (1 °d - German scale).
If this setting corresponds to the hardness of your water, you do not need to do anything more.
However, if you have a different water hardness, you must adjust the water softener to match your water hardness.
20
Before using for the first time
Displaying and setting the water hardness level
Switch the dishwasher off with the button if it is switched on.
Press the Start button in and, whilst holding it in, switch the dishwasher on using the button.
Keep the Start button pressed in for at least four seconds until the Start indicator light comes on.
If this does not happen, start the procedure from the beginning again.
Press the Delay start button twice.
The indicator light will flash rapidly twice at intervals.
The value which has been set for the water hardness is shown as a figure after in the display (see chart).
will start flashing in the display.
This is the factory default setting of
0.2 mmol/l (1 °d - German scale).
Use the Start button to select the value which equates to your water hardness level.
Each press of the button moves you up a level. When the highest water hardness level is reached, the setting starts from the beginning again.
The setting is now stored in memory.
Switch the dishwasher off with the button.

Before using for the first time
Before using the appliance for the first time, you require:
– approx. 2 litres of water,
– approx. 2 kg dishwasher salt,
– domestic dishwasher detergent,
– rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers.
Every dishwasher is tested at the factory. There will be residual water in the appliance from this test. It is not an indication that it has been used previously.
Dishwasher salt
In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft water. Hard water results in a 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 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 combination tablets are being used (see
"Operation, 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 if the water softener has been programmed for this to happen.
Dishwasher detergent will damage 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 (e.g. cooking salt, agricultural grade or gritting salt) may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water softener.
23
Before using for the first time
Filling the salt reservoir
Before filling the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for the first time, you must fill it with approx. 2 litres of water to enable the salt to dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used, there is always sufficient water in the reservoir.
Remove the lower basket and unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Water or saline solution will run out of the reservoir when the cap is removed.
It should therefore only be removed in order to refill the salt reservoir.
Fill the reservoir with approx. 2 litres of water (first use only).
Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir and carefully fill with dishwasher salt until the reservoir is full. The salt reservoir holds approx.
2 kg of salt depending on the brand used.
Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and then screw the cap on again firmly.
Immediately after filling the salt reservoir, run the QuickPowerWash programme with the Short option and without any crockery in the dishwasher to dissolve and remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
24
Add salt reminder
Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt when the Salt indicator light comes on (If it comes on during a programme, wait until the end of the programme).
Risk of corrosion!
Immediately after filling the salt reservoir, run the QuickPowerWash programme with the Short programme option selected and without any crockery in the dishwasher to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
After the salt reservoir has been filled, the refill indicator may still be lit up if the salt concentration has not yet reached the correct level. It will go out when the correct concentration is reached.
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).
Before using for the first time
If you only ever use multi-function combination products in your dishwasher, you can switch off both refill reminders for salt and rinse aid if you wish (see "Programme options -
Switching off the refill indicators").
If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to add dishwasher salt and rinse aid and to switch the reminders back on.
25
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.
Inadvertently filling the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent will damage 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.
26
Before using for the first time
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.
Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This prevents over-foaming occurring during the next programme.
Add rinse aid reminder
When the Rinse aid indicator light comes on, the reservoir contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 - 3 programmes only.
Add rinse aid in plenty of time.
If you only ever use multi-function combination products in your dishwasher, you can switch off both refill reminders for salt and rinse aid if you wish (see "Programme options -
Switching off the refill indicators").
If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to add dishwasher salt and rinse aid and to switch the reminders back on.
27
Before using for the first time
Setting the rinse aid dosage
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for best results.
The rinse aid dosage is set in stages from 0 to 6. It is set to 3 at the factory.
This is the recommended setting.
If the "Adjust Automatic" programme function (depending on model) has been activated, the amount of rinse aid dispensed in the Automatic programme can be higher than that set.
If spots appear on crockery and glassware:
Increase the rinse aid dosage.
If clouding or smearing appears on crockery and glassware:
Decrease the rinse aid dosage.
Switch the dishwasher off with the button, if it is switched on.
Press the Start button in and, whilst holding it in, switch the dishwasher on using the button.
Keep the Start button pressed in for at least 4 seconds until the Start indicator light comes on.
If this does not happen, start the procedure from the beginning again.
Press the button 3 times.
The indicator will flash rapidly 3 times at intervals.
The dosage set will appear in the display after .
The flashing sequence will appear in the display.
This indicates the factory default setting
3.
Use the Start button to select the setting required.
Each press of the button moves you up a level. After reaching the highest value, the counter starts from the beginning again.
The setting is now stored in memory.
Switch the dishwasher off with the button.

Loading the dishwasher
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. Ash does not dissolve and is distributed in the wash cabinet. Wax, sand, lubricating grease and paint cause 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 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.
– 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 rotating the spray arms.
– Make sure that small items cannot 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 tomato sauce. Plastic items in the dishwasher may discolour if large quantities 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 dishwasher 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 dishwasher.
– Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware are also not suitable for dishwashers.
– Plastic items which are not heatresistant: 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.
– 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 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.
rangehood 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).
Useful tip: When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher-proof.
Glass care
– Clouding may occur on glasses after frequent washing. If delicate glassware is washed in the dishwasher, ensure that only very low temperatures are used (see programme chart), or a special glasscare programme is used (depending on model). This will reduce the risk of clouding.
– Purchase glassware which is dishwasher-safe (e.g. Riedel glassware).
– Use detergents with glass protective additives.

Loading the dishwasher
FlexAssist
The yellow coded FlexAssist parts indicate which elements of the dishwasher baskets and cutlery tray are moveable. They also act as grips and have symbols embossed on them to show what the moveable parts are used for.
Upper basket
See "Loading the dishwasher -
Loading examples" for examples of how to load crockery and cutlery.
Cup rack
Raise the rack upwards using the yellow lever to make room for tall items.
Glasses can be arranged along the positioning rail of the cup rack to give them some support during the programme.
Lower the cup rack and lean the glasses against it.
For safety reasons, do not operate the dishwasher without the upper and lower baskets in place
(except when running the
Tall items programme, if available).
Use the upper basket for small, lightweight and delicate items such as cups, saucers, glasses, dessert bowls, etc.
Shallow pans or casserole dishes can also be placed in the upper basket.
Long items such as soup ladles, mixing spoons and long knives should be placed lying down across the front of the upper basket.
31
Loading the dishwasher
Adjusting the upper basket
In order to gain more space for taller pieces of crockery in the bottom or upper basket, the upper basket can be adjusted on three levels with 2 cm between each level.
The upper basket can also be set at an angle with one side high and the other side low. This can be useful to help prevent water being left in deep dishes etc. Ensure, however, that the basket can be inserted smoothly into the cabinet. It is better to adjust the basket before loading it.
Pull out the upper basket.
Depending on the setting of the upper basket, the following plate dimensions can be accommodated.

34
Loading the dishwasher
Cutlery
3D cutlery tray + (depending on model)
See "Loading the dishwasher -
Loading examples" for examples of how to load crockery and cutlery.
Arrange the cutlery in the tray as shown.
To make unloading much easier, cutlery should be grouped in zones, one for knives, one for forks, one for spoons, etc.
Spoon heads should be placed in contact with at least one of the serrated retainers on the base of the cutlery tray to ensure that water runs off them freely.
The upper spray arm must not be blocked by items which are too big
(e.g. cake servers).
The side sections of the tray can be moved into the middle using the yellow grips in order to accommodate tall items of crockery in the upper basket
(see also "Upper basket, glass rail").
If spoon handles do not fit between the holders, then lay them the other way round.
For optimum cleaning results, arrange spoons with the inner part facing the centre of the cutlery tray.
35
Loading the dishwasher
Both rows of spikes in the middle section of the cutlery tray can be flipped over to make room for larger pieces of cutlery.
You can use the yellow slide to adjust the height of the middle section of the cutlery tray to make more room for large items of cutlery, such as serving spoons and ladles.
Raise the spikes and then flip them over .
36
Cutlery basket (depending on model)
Loading the dishwasher
The cutlery basket can be placed anywhere on the front rows of spikes in the lower basket.
To avoid the risk of injury, knives and forks should be placed with the handles upwards in the basket.
However, cutlery placed handle down in the basket will come out cleaner and drier.
Place small items of cutlery in the individual slots on three sides of the cutlery basket.
Cutlery insert for the cutlery basket
Use the insert supplied for heavily soiled items of cutlery. The insert separates the items so that they can be more easily accessed by water.
Fit it onto the cutlery basket if required.
Insert cutlery with the handles facing downwards.
Distribute them evenly along the insert.

Operation
Detergent
Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various active ingredients, the most important of which are:
– Complexing agents to prevent calcification.
– Alkalis to aid the removal of dried on soiling.
– Enzymes to break down starch and loosen protein.
– Oxygen based bleaching agents to remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, coffee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents are mildly alkaline and contain enzymes and oxygen 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 soiling.
– Tab detergents. These are suitable for most levels of soiling.
You can also buy combination products
(see "Programme options -
DetergentAgent", 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 protective additives and enhanced cleaning 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 drying results of combination detergents can vary greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying results, use Miele dishwasher detergent and add Miele salt and
Miele rinse aid separately. See
"Optional accessories".
48
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 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.
Tabs may not dissolve completely when the "QuickPowerWash" programme (if available) is used.
Failure to dispense the recommended amount of detergent may impair cleaning results.
Operation
Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Avoid inhalation of powder detergents and do not ingest dishwasher detergent. Seek medical advice 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 the dishwasher detergent, only add detergent just before starting the programme and close the door, activating the safety lock (if your dishwasher is fitted with one).
49
Operation
Adding detergent
Press the opening catch on the detergent 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 packaging is properly closed after use to avoid it getting damp and becoming lumpy.
For information
Compartment I holds max. 10 ml,
Compartment II holds max. 50 ml.
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 horizontal position.
50
Operation
Switching on the dishwasher
Make sure the spray arms are not obstructed.
Close the door.
Turn on the tap if it is turned off.
Switch the dishwasher on with the button.
The Start indicator light flashes and the indicator light comes on next to the programme selected.
Selecting a programme
Choose your programme according to the type of load and how dirty it is.
The different programmes and their uses are described in the Programme chart later on in this booklet.
Use the programme selector button
to select the programme required.
The indicator light for the programme selected will light up.
The programme duration will appear in hours and minutes in the display.
You can now select programme options (see "Programme options").
If any programme options are selected, the appropriate indicator lights will light up.
51
Operation
Starting the programme
Press the Start button.
The programme will begin.
The Start indicator light will come on.
A programme should only be cancelled in the first few minutes, if at all. Otherwise important programme stages could be omitted.
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.
The programme duration displayed may vary with the same programme. It is influenced by, among other things, the water temperature at each intake, the reactivation process, the water softener, the type of detergent, the amount of crockery and how dirty it is.
When a programme is selected for the first time, the display will show the average programme duration for a cold water intake.
The times 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 time required.
52
Energy management
To save energy, the dishwasher will switch off automatically 10 minutes after the last time a button has been pressed or 10 minutes after the end of the programme (see "Programme options, Optimise standby").
Press the button to switch the dishwasher back on.
The dishwasher will not switch off whilst a programme is running, during the Delay start period or if there is a fault.
Operation
At the end of the programme
The programme has finished when . appears in the time display and the door has opened slightly.
With the QuickPowerWash programme the door will not open until a few minutes after the programme has finished.
The drying fan may continue to run for a few minutes at the end of the programme.
Open the door fully so that the door catch rail retracts again.
You can now empty the dishwasher.
If you have deactivated the automatic door opening function (see
"Programme options, AutoOpen") and 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 dishwasher could damage the edge of the worktop because the fan is no longer running.
53
Operation
Switching off
At the end of a programme:
The dishwasher can be switched off at any time using the button.
Switching the dishwasher off during a programme cancels 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 tap should be turned off.
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 and cutlery tray from falling onto the dishes in the lower basket.
54
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

Cleaning and care
Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every 4-6 months). This way faults and problems can be avoided.
The external surfaces of this appliance are all susceptible to scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the external surfaces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely selfcleaning, provided that the correct amount of detergent is always used.
If there are nevertheless limescale or grease deposits in the cabinet, these can be removed with the Original Miele dishwasher conditioning agent
(available from Miele or at www.mieleshop.com). Follow the dosage recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.
Using mainly low temperature programmes (below 50°C), could cause bacteria and unpleasant odours to build up in the wash cabinet. To avoid this, the dishwasher will increase the temperature in the final rinse of the selected programme automatically after several programmes using 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 are not accessed and cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.
Wipe off any food or drink residues which may have dripped onto the sides of the dishwasher door before closing it.
68
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the door front
Soiling that is left too long might become impossible to remove and could cause external surfaces to alter or discolour.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Clean the front with a solution of warm water and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge.
Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.
For cleaning, you can also use a clean, damp microfibre cloth, such as the Original Miele all purpose microfibre cloth, without any cleaning agent.
To avoid damaging 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 cleaner,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
– dirt erasers,
– sharp metal scrapers,
– steel wool or metal scourers,
– steam cleaning appliances.
69
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.
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.
Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them if necessary.
Cleaning the filters
Switch the dishwasher off.
Turn the handle anti-clockwise to release the filter combination .
Lift the filter combination out of the dishwasher . Remove any coarse particles and rinse the filter well under running water.
Use a nylon brush if necessary.
During cleaning ensure that course soil doesn't get into the circulation system and cause a blockage.
70
Cleaning and care
To clean the inside of the filter, the flap must be opened:
Press the catches together in the direction of the arrows as shown, and open the filter .
Rinse all the filters under running water.
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 until both arrows point towards each other. This will 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.
71
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:

Maintenance
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
If the mains water contains a large amount of insoluble substances, we recommend fitting a large-area filter in the connection between the tap and the water inlet hose threaded union. 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.
Turn off the tap.
Unscrew the inlet hose.
Carefully remove the washer.
Withdraw the filter using pointed pliers and rinse clean under running water.
Replace the filter and washer, making sure they are sitting correctly.
Reconnect the inlet hose to the tap, making sure it goes on correctly and is not cross-threaded.
Turn on the tap.
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 inlet hose correctly.
81
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.
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.
Carefully refit the non-return valve and secure it with the catch.
Ensure that the catch engages correctly.
Press the catch for the non-return valve inwards .
Tilt the non-return valve inwards until it is released .
Rinse it thoroughly under running water and remove any soiling from the non-return valve.
Be careful not to damage any delicate components when cleaning the drain pump and the non-return valve.

Electrical connection
This dishwasher is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to an AC single phase supply, (230 - 240 V 50 Hz for NZ and
Australia) via a suitable switched socket.
The electrical socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher has been installed. Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not connect the appliance solely to an inverter such as those used with an autonomous energy source e.g. solar power. When switched on, peak loads in the system can cause the safety switch-off mechanism to be triggered.
This can damage the electronic unit.
The machine must not be used with socalled energy-saving devices either.
These reduce the amount of energy supplied to the machine, causing it to overheat.
Before connecting the appliance, check that the connection data on the data plate (voltage, frequency, rated load and fuse rating) matches the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The data plate is located on the righthand side of the door.
All electrical work must be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current local and national safety regulations.
For extra safety, it is advisable to install a residual current device
(RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA.
86
Water connection
The Miele Waterproof system
As long as your dishwasher has been installed correctly, the Miele waterproof anti-leak system will protect you from water damage.
Connection to the water supply
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 connection to a hot water supply if it is economical, e.g. a solar powered supply. When connected to a hot water supply, all programmes will be carried out with hot water.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
– A tap with a 3/4" male thread must be provided on site.
– IMPORTANT: Australia and New
Zealand
This appliance must be installed according to AS/NZS 3500.1. Back flow prevention is already integrated in the appliance.
– The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between
50 and 1000 kPa (0.5 and 10 bar). If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fitted.
After connecting the dishwasher to the water supply, check that all plumbing connections are watertight.
To avoid any damage to the appliance, 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).
87
Water connection
Drainage
– The appliance drainage system is fitted with a non-return valve which prevents dirty water from flowing back into the dishwasher via the drain hose.
– The dishwasher is supplied with approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
– 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.
– If the hose is to be directly fitted to the drainage outlet on site, use the hose clip supplied (see installation diagram).
– 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 protrudes 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 shortened.
Make sure that there are no kinks in the hose, and that it is not squashed or stretched.
After commissioning the appliance, ensure that the water outlet does not leak.
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 appliance to empty itself of water.
To vent it: Open the dishwasher door fully.
Pull the lower spray arm firmly upwards to remove it.
Cut off the top of the vent valve in the wash cabinet.
