Warning and Safety instructions
This appliance conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, use and maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.
Correct application
~
This dishwasher is intended exclusively for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery in a domestic household. Using it for purposes other than those for which it was designed, as well as any alterations or conversions to the appliance, would be unauthorised and could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from improper or incorrect use of the appliance.
~
This dishwasher is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised whilst using it or they have been shown how to use it correctly by a person responsible for their safety.
Safety with children
~
This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, keep children well away and do not allow them to play in or around the dishwasher, or to use the controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by it. They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen. There is a danger that children playing might shut themselves in the dishwasher.
~
Older children may only use the dishwasher when its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.
~
Keep children away from detergents. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, nose and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be detergent residues in the cabinet.
Consult a doctor immediately if your child has swallowed or inhaled detergent.

Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
~
Before setting up the appliance, check it for any externally visible damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged appliance.
A damaged appliance could be dangerous.
~
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 has been installed so that it can be disconnected from the electricity supply at any time. (See
"Electrical connection").
~
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 hob. The high radiant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob 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.
~
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has been fully installed.
~
Before connecting the appliance, check that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and where there is any doubt the electrical system in the house should be checked by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
10

~
This appliance may only be installed in mobile installations such as ships if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
~
The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical component. The housing must not be dipped in water.
~
There are live wires in the water inlet hose. Never 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:

Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
~
The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance with the installation diagram supplied.
~
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 built-under ("U") model, you will need to order the appropriate conversion kit. If you remove the existing plinth, you must replace it with a U-model plinth.
This is necessary to avoid the risk of injury caused by protruding metal parts.
Correct use
~
Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
~
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
~
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over 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.
~
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 severe chemical reaction.
~
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious damage to the reservoir.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
~
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!
~
Please only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener.
~
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.

18
Before using for the first time
Miele branded products are available from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com.
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 factory.
There will be residual water in the appliance from this test. It is not an indication that it has been used previously.
This dishwasher is fitted with a water softener sensor which automatically sets the water softener unit for the local water hardness level.
External water softening system
If your dishwasher is connected to an external water softening system which uses salt to reactivate, you will still need to programme the dishwasher to the correct water hardness level to achieve good cleaning results.
^
Set the water softener unit of the dishwasher to the water hardness level of the water which is supplied from the external water softening system.
If you do not know what this is, then set the value at 1.4 mmol/l (8 °d) (see
Settings menu !
, External water softener).
Filling the salt reservoir
In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft water. Hard water results in the build-up of calcium deposits on crockery and in the dishwasher.
Mains water with a hardness level higher than 0.7 mmol/l (4 °d – German scale) needs to be softened. This takes place automatically in the integrated softener unit.
The softener unit is suitable for a water hardness level of up to 12.6 mmol/l
(70 °d). It requires dishwasher salt.
If you use combination products which have salt in them in your dishwasher, such as "3 in 1" or
"4 in 1" products, you should still add salt in order to achieve optimum results and to ensure that the water softener continues to function.
Selecting the Combination tabs function reduces salt consumption to between 1 /
4 and 1 /
3 of the normal amount. (See Settings menu J ,
Detergent type).
19
Before using for the first time
You can check the water hardness level measured by the water softener sensor in the display (see Settings menu !
,
Water hardness).
^ When filling the salt reservoir only open the door halfway to ensure that all the salt gets into the reservoir.
If the water in your area is very soft and constantly lower than
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d) you do not need to add salt. The "Insufficient salt" message will be deactivated automatically.
,
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.
^
Press the button on the lid of the salt reservoir in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.
^ Lift up the funnel.
20
Before using for the first time
Do not fill the salt reservoir with water.
^ 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.
^
After filling the salt reservoir, run the
Quick wash programme immediately
(without any crockery in the dishwasher, and without selecting the
Turbo extra option) to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
Salt indicator
^ Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for reactivation when the
Insufficient salt message appears.
(If it appears during a programme, wait until the end of the programme).
^ Confirm with OK .
The "Insufficient salt" message will go out.
After the salt reservoir has been filled, the "Insufficient salt" message 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 sinsufficient salt message will not come on if the dishwasher has been programmed for a water hardness level of less than 0.7 mmol/l (4 °d - German scale).
,
After filling the salt reservoir, run the Quick wash programme immediately (without any crockery in the dishwasher, and without selecting the Turbo extra option) to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
21
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.
Adding rinsing agent
^
Press the button on the lid of the rinse aid reservoir in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.
If you only ever use combination products containing rinse aid in your dishwasher, you do not need to add rinse aid.
22
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.
"Rinse aid low" message
When the Rinse aid low message appears, the reservoir contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 - 3 programmes only.
^ Add rinse aid in plenty of time.
If the 2 in 1 or Combi tab function has been selected, the Rinse aid low message will not appear (see
Settings menu !
, Detergent type).
^
Confirm with OK .
The Rinse aid low message will go out.
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for best results (see Settings menu !
,
Rinse aid).
23
Loading the dishwasher
Note
Remove coarse food residues from crockery.
There is no need to rinse items under running water.
,
Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or paint in the dishwasher.
These substances will damage the dishwasher.
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in the baskets, but the following notes should be observed:
– Do not place crockery and cutlery inside other pieces where they may be concealed.
– Load the crockery so that water can access all surfaces. This ensures that they get properly cleaned.
– Make sure that all items are securely positioned.
– 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 ketchup. Plastic items in the dishwasher may discolour if large quantities of these foodstuffs find their way into the appliance on the crockery. The stability of plastic items is not affected by this discolouration.
24
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 heat resistant: the high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
– Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items may discolour or become matt.
– Colours painted over a glaze may fade after a number of washes.
– Clouding may occur on glasses after frequent washing. Do not wash delicate glassware, or glassware containing lead crystal in a dishwasher.
We recommend:
– When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher-proof.
– If delicate glassware is washed in the dishwasher ensure 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.
– If in doubt, wash delicate glassware by hand.
Please note
Silverware previously cleaned with a silver polish may still be damp or spotted at the end of a programme, where water has not run off smoothly. It may need to be rubbed dry with a soft cloth.
Silver which has been in contact with foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine and marinades.
,
Aluminium components (e.g.
grease filters) must not be cleaned with caustic alkaline commercial or industrial cleaning agents. These may damage the material, or in extreme cases, cause a severe chemical reaction. See section
"Adding detergent" for information on suitable detergents.

33
Operation
Detergent
,
Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.
Miele branded dishwasher cleaning products are available from the Miele
Spare Parts Department or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various active ingredients, the most important of which are:
– Phosphates to prevent calcification.
– Alkalis to aid removal of dried on soiling.
– Enzymes to break down starch and dissolve protein.
– Oxygen based bleaching agents to remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, coffee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents contain phosphate and are mildly alkaline with enzymes and oxygen based bleaching agents. Phosphate free products are rare.
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.
A variety of combination products is also available (see "Settings !
,
Detergent type").
In addition to detergent, combi tabs contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.
Combi tabs 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 "4 in 1",
"5 in 1" etc.
Refer to the manufacturer's packaging as to whether the combi tabs are suitable for the water hardness level in your area.
Please note that the cleaning and drying results of tab detergents can vary greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying results use Miele dishwasher detergent and add Miele salt and
Miele rinse aid separately.
Dispensing
^ Follow the dosage recommended on the packaging.
^ Unless directed otherwise, use one detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml in compartment II, depending on the level of soiling.
With very heavy soiling you can also add a small amount of detergent to compartment l (see "Programme chart").
^
Do not use tabs with the Quick wash programme, as they will not dissolve properly.
Failure to dispense the recommended amount of detergent may impair cleaning results.
34
Operation
,
Avoid inhalation of powder detergents and do not ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor 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 child safety lock (if your dishwasher is fitted with one).
Adding detergent
The flap is always open at the end of a programme.
^
Add the required amount of detergent and close the flap.
^ Make sure that the detergent packaging is properly closed after use to avoid it getting damp and becoming lumpy.
For information

The programme starts, and the prompt
Add an item shows in the display.
As long as this prompt is showing, crockery can be added without compromising the wash results.
A programme can only be cancelled in the first few minutes. Otherwise the programme must continue to the end so that important programme stages (e.g. reactivating the water softener) are not omitted.
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 time displayed may vary with the same programme. This could be due to the water temperature at each intake, the reactivation cycle, the amount of crockery and how dirty it is.
When a programme is selected for the first time, the display shows an average time 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 adjusts the programme duration according to the temperature of the incoming water and the amount of crockery.
To save energy, the time display goes out after a few minutes if you do not touch any sensors during this time. Touch any sensor (apart from the On/Off sensor K ) to switch the time display back on again.
38
Operation
At the end of a programme
If the message Programme finished or

You can now empty the dishwasher.
,
If you have deselected the automatic door opening function (see
Settings menu, Drying plus), but would still like to open the door at the end of the programme, then make sure that you open the door fully. Otherwise steam from the dishwasher could damage the edge of the worktop because the fan is no longer running.
Switching off
At the end of a programme:
^
Switch the dishwasher off using the
On/Off sensor K .
The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until it is switched off with the K sensor.
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e. g.
whilst on holiday, the stopcock 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.
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 push the door shut until the catch engages.

Cleaning and care
Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every 4 - 6 months). This way faults and problems can be avoided.
^
When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door.
These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. Any soiling should be wiped off these surfaces before the door is closed.
Miele branded cleaning and conditioning products are available from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the Internet at www.miele-shop.com.
Cleaning the door front
,
Remove any soiling immediately.
If not, it might become impossible to remove and could cause the outer surface to alter or discolour.
,
The external surfaces of the dishwasher are susceptible to scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the outer surfaces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely self-cleaning, provided that the correct amount of detergent is always used.
If, however, there are limescale or grease deposits in the cabinet, these can be removed with a proprietary dishwasher cleaner or conditioner.
Cleaning the door and the door seal
^ Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.
^
Clean the front using a damp Miele microfibre E-cloth or with a sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid. Then dry with a soft cloth.
To avoid damaging the external surfaces, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling agents,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners.
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive sponges and brushes, e.g. pot scourers,
– sharp metal scrapers.
43
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.
Cleaning the filters
^
Switch the dishwasher off.
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 40 programme cycles (factory default setting).
^
Turn the handle anti-clockwise to release the filter combination a .
^ Lift the filter combination out of the dishwasher b . Remove any coarse particles and rinse the filter well under running water. Use a nylon brush if necessary.
You can set the interval for this message 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 display will change to show the programme selection menu.
44
Cleaning and care
To clean the inside of the filter, the flap must be opened:
^
Press catches a together in the direction of the arrows as shown, and open the filter b .
^ 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 the arrows line up, to 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.
45
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 dishwasher is fitted with one).
^
Push the top spray arm upwards to engage the inner ratchet. Then unscrew the spray arm.
^ Remove the lower basket.
^ Pull the lower spray arm firmly upwards to remove it.
^ Push the middle spray arms upwards a to engage the ratchet. Then unscrew the spray arm b .
^
Use a pointed object to push food particles into the spray arm jets.
^ Rinse thoroughly under running water.
^
Replace the spray arms and check that they rotate freely.

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. It 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 stopcock and the water inlet hose threaded union. This filter is available from the
Miele Spares Parts dept.
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 pliers and rinse clean under running water.
^
Replace the filter and seal, making sure they are sitting correctly.
^ Reconnect the inlet hose to the stopcock, making sure it goes on correctly and is not cross-threaded.
^
Turn on the stopcock gradually to test for leaks. If there is a leak, the inlet hose might not be on securely, or it may have been screwed on at an angle. Unscrew and reconnect the water inlet valve correctly.
57
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 in the wash cabinet").
^
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 replace 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 a .
^
Lift out the non-return valve b , and rinse well under running water.
^ Remove all foreign objects from the non-return valve.

The Miele waterproof anti-leak system
Providing your dishwasher has been installed correctly, the Miele waterproof anti-leak system will protect you from water damage throughout its lifetime.
Connection to the water supply
,
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 programme stages which would otherwise be carried out with cold water will be carried out with hot water.
– The Without heater programme (if available) requires a hot water supply of between 45 °C (minimum) and 60 °C (maximum).
The higher the water intake temperature, the better the cleaning and drying results.
– The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
A 1.5 metre long flexible metal extension hose, pressure tested to
14,000 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 without an extra non-return valve if national regulations permit.
– The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between
30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 and 10 bar).
If the water pressure is lower than this, the fault message Water inlet fault will appear in the display (see
Problem solving guide).
If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fitted.
,
To avoid any damage to the appliance, the dishwasher must only be 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).

Plumbing
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.
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.

Detergent type menu for the type of detergent you are using.
The options available are: normal dishwasher detergent, 2 in 1 tabs or
Combination tabs.
The programme sequence and duration will be adjusted for the type of detergent selected. Depending on the programme, the duration can be considerably longer.
Normal
When using Normal detergent, you must add salt and rinse aid (see "Filling the salt reservoir" and "Adding rinse aid"). The rinse aid refill reminder is active with this setting.
2 in 1
Select the 2 in 1 function if you are using 2 in 1 tabs (detergent containing rinse aid). The programme sequence will be adjusted, and rinse aid will not be dispensed in the programme. The
"Rinse aid low" message is also deactivated.
When using 2 in 1 tabs you must still keep the salt reservoir replenished. See
"Filling the salt reservoir".
Combination tabs
Select the Combination tabs function if you are using Combi tabs (detergent containing rinse aid and salt substitutes, as well as other components where applicable) e.g. 3 in
1 or 4 in 1 tabs. The programme sequence will be adjusted, and rinse aid will not be dispensed in the programme. The "Rinse aid low" message is also deactivated.
When using Combi tabs, you must still keep the salt reservoir replenished. See
"Filling the salt reservoir".
Salt consumption in the water softener is reduced to between 1 /
3 and 1 /
4 of the normal amount.
Do not select the Combination tabs function if:
– using 2 in 1 tabs (detergent with rinse aid)
– your water hardness level is above
3.8 mmol/l or 21°d.
Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions.
The cleaning and drying performance of these types of detergent can vary enormously.
The appliance is set at the factory for using normal dishwasher detergent.
^ Select the detergent type you want and confirm with OK .

External water softener
If your dishwasher is connected to an external water softening system which uses salt to reactivate, to achieve good cleaning results you will still need to set the water hardness level of the water softening unit on the dishwasher to the water hardness level of the water supplied from the external water softening system.
If you do not know what this is, then set the value at 1.4 mmol/l (8 °d - German scale).
^
Select the value which equates to the water hardness level of the water supplied by the external water softening unit and confirm your selection with OK .
If you disconnect the dishwasher from the external water softening system, select the Automatic option.
Rinse aid
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for best results.
The rinse aid dosage can be set from approx. 0-6 ml.
The factory default setting is 3 ml.
Due to the Adjust sensor wash function, the amount of rinse aid dispensed could be higher than that set in the
Sensor wash programme.
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.
^
Use +/to select the rinse aid dosage you want and confirm with
OK .
Check filters
You can adjust the interval at which the message to remind you to check the filters appears.
You can set an interval of between 30 and 60 programme cycles.
The "Check filters" message is set at the factory to appear after every 40 programme cycles.
