10
This commercial dishwasher complies with all current local and
national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead
to personal injury and material damage.
Read the operating instructions carefully before using the
commercial dishwasher for the first time. They contain important
information on the safety, use and maintenance of the appliance.
This way you will prevent the risk of accidents and damage to the
commercial dishwasher. Keep these operating instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any future owner.
This dishwasher with its short programme running times and
powerful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in
offices, lunch rooms, clubhouses, workshops, large kitchens and
similar professional environments.
It is also suitable for use in domestic households and in similar
residential environments; for example, by customers in hotels,
motels, bed and breakfasts and other related establishments.
This commercial dishwasher is subsequently referred to as a
dishwasher in these operating instructions.
Glasses, cutlery and crockery are referred to generally as crockery
when not more specifically defined.
This dishwasher is not intended for continuous use.
This dishwasher may not be used to clean medical products or
devices.
This appliance is designed exclusively for use as a “dishwasher” for
cleaning loads as described in these instructions. Conversions,
modifications and any other use are not permitted.
This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.
This dishwasher is intended for use at altitudes of up to 4000m
above sea level.
The special inserts in the baskets should only be used for their
specific application.
This dishwasher can only be used by people with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, if
they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it
in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequences of

background
Correct use
11
This dishwasher is supplied with a special lamp (depending on the
model) to cope with particular conditions (e.g. in terms of
temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and
vibration). This lamp must only be used for the purpose for which it is
intended. The lamp is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement
lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised technician or by the
Miele Customer Service Department.
This dishwasher contains several light sources in energy efficiency
class D.
The lighting control element is integrated into the appliance control
and cannot be removed separately. As a result, electricity
consumption cannot be measured separately.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Correct installation
Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of
explosion or freezing conditions.
Take care, both before and during installation of the
dishwasher, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger of
injury. Wear protective gloves.
To ensure stability a built-under dishwasher must only be installed
beneath a continuous worktop that is bolted to the adjacent
cabinetry.
In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the
furniture in the area around the dishwasher should ideally be
designed for commercial use.
Furniture can be protected using the vapour protection set, which is
available as an optional accessory.
The vapour barrier film should be stuck under the worktop in the area
around the dishwasher door.
The door springs must be evenly adjusted 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 must only be operated with properly adjusted door
springs.
If the door cannot be adjusted properly, contact the Miele Customer
Service Department.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Technical safety
This dishwasher must only be commissioned, repaired and
maintained by the Miele Customer Service Department, a dealer or a
suitably qualified service technician. Unauthorised installation,
maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user.
This dishwasher must only be operated by appropriately trained
personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.
Before using the dishwasher, check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not use a damaged dishwasher. This could be
dangerous.
In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the
power supply immediately and call the Miele Customer Service
Department, a Miele dealer or a suitably qualified service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele
original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele
guarantee the correct functioning and safety of the appliance.
The electrical safety of this dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. If in any doubt, please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
Please follow the advice on installation in these operating
instructions and the installation plan.
Before connecting the appliance, ensure that the connection data
on the data plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rating) match the
mains electrical supply.
The dishwasher may only be operated if the door opening
mechanism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of
danger whilst the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on
the model) is active.
The maximum weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the
factory fitted door springs is 10–12kg (depending on the model).
Signs that the door opening mechanism is working correctly:
- The door springs must be evenly adjusted 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.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
14
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. See “Electrical connection”.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply via
a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Never open the casing of the dishwasher. Any contact with live
connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical
components of the dishwasher will endanger your safety and may
lead to appliance malfunctions.
The dishwasher must not be used if the electrical connection cable
is damaged. A damaged connection cable may only be replaced by a
suitable connection cable of the same type. For safety reasons, such
replacement may only be carried out by the Miele Customer Service
Department or a qualified service technician.
The dishwasher must be disconnected from the mains electricity
supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical
components. It must not be dipped in water.
There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not shorten
the water inlet hose, even if it is too long.
The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water
damage, provided that the following conditions are met:
- Installation has been carried out correctly.
- The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced
where it can be seen that this is necessary.
- The stopcocks have been turned off during longer periods of
inactivity (e.g. whilst on holiday).
The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher is
switched off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to the
electricity supply.
While the dishwasher is under warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty is invalidated.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
15
Correct use
This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and
detergents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Organic
solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used in it.
This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic components
in the dishwasher and cause liquids to leak out of it.
You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over
it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
Do not sit, stand or lean on the opened door. This would tip or
damage the dishwasher.
After any plumbing work the water pipework to the dishwasher will
need to be vented. If this is not done, components can be damaged.
Please be aware that the dishwasher may be operating at high
temperatures. When the door is opened there is a danger of burning
or scalding. Items, baskets and inserts must be allowed to cool down
before they are unloaded. Any water remaining in containers could
still be very hot. Empty them into the wash chamber before taking
them out.
The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.
Pre-treating items (for example with washing-up liquid and other
cleaning agents) as well as some types of soiling and some cleaning
agents can cause a build-up of foam in the wash cabinet. Foam can
have an adverse effect on the cleaning result.
Foam escaping from the wash cabinet can cause damage to the
dishwasher. If foam escapes the programme must be cancelled
immediately and the appliance must be disconnected from the mains
electrical supply.
There may be a risk of slipping if liquid is spilt on the floor
depending on the type of flooring and footwear being worn. Keep the
floor dry where possible and take care to clean up any liquid spills
straight away. Take the necessary precautions when cleaning up
hazardous substances and hot liquids.
When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is
essential that the manufacturers instructions are followed. Cleaning
agents must only be used for the purpose they are designed for by
the manufacturer to avoid any material damage or the occurrence of
strong chemical reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).
background
Warning and Safety instructions
16
Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical cleaning agents
may have on the material of the items being cleaned. Observe the
cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions with regard to storage
conditions, use and dosage.
Do not inhale or ingest powder detergent. Dishwasher detergent
contains irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in
the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Seek
medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled.
People aged 16 and above may refill the dishwasher detergent or
change the media canister provided that they have been trained to do
so.
Powder and liquid detergents containing active chlorine must not
be used. They can damage plastics and seals in the dishwasher.
To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or
solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet or onto the
casing. Similarly avoid any ferrous materials with a corrosive effect.
Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or
paint in the dishwasher. These materials will cause damage to the
dishwasher.
Do not clean the dishwasher or near vicinity with a hose or a
pressure washer.
Be careful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and
positioning them in the dishwasher that you do not hurt yourself or
create a danger for others. Sharp knives, forks, etc. should be placed
in baskets with the pointed ends facing downwards.
Remove any coarse food deposits and empty out any containers or
utensils before loading them in the dishwasher.
Safety with children
Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher.
Never allow children to play with the appliance. There is a danger that
children might shut themselves in the dishwasher.
Children under eight years of age must be kept away from the
dishwasher unless they are constantly supervised.
Children aged eight and older may only use the dishwasher
without supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe
manner. Children must be able to recognise and understand the
potential risks of improper use.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
17
If the automatic door opening mechanism is active, keep young
children away from the area in which the door opens. There is a
danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the opening
mechanism.
Keep children away from chemical agents. These contain irritant
and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, or
inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be residual chemical agent in the wash
cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swallowed or
inhaled chemical agent.
Accessories
Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.
Miele will guarantee the supply of functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation
of your dishwasher.
Transport
Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position so that no
water flows into the electrical controls, as this would cause faults.
If you wish to transport the dishwasher, empty it and securely
fasten all loose parts such as baskets, hoses and cables.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety instructions.
background
Caring for the environment
18
Disposing of the packaging
material
The packaging material is used for
handling and protects the appliance
from transport damage. The packaging
material used is selected from materials
which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material
reduces the use of raw materials. Use
material-specific collection points for
valuable materials and take advantage
of return options. Your Miele dealer will
take the packaging material away.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials,
compounds and components which
were essential for their correct
functioning and safety. These could be
hazardous to human health and to the
environment if disposed of with
household waste or if handled
incorrectly. Please do not, therefore,
dispose of your old appliance with
household waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle
electrical and electronic appliances in
your local community, with your dealer
or with Miele, free of charge. By law, you
are solely responsible for deleting any
personal data from the old appliance
prior to disposal. You are legally obliged
to remove any old batteries which are
not securely enclosed by the appliance
and to remove any lamps without
destroying them, where this is possible.
These must be taken to a suitable
collection point where they can be
handed in free of charge. Please ensure
that your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored for disposal.

Miele@home
Your dishwasher is equipped with an
integrated WiFi module.
To use this feature, you will need:
- A WiFi network
- A Miele networking solution, e.g. the
Mieleapp
- A Miele user account. The user
account can be created via the Miele
networking solutions, e.g. via the
Mieleapp
The networking solution you are using
will guide you as you connect your
dishwasher to your home WiFi network.
Once your dishwasher is connected to
your WiFi network, you can use the
networking solution, for example, to
carry out the following activities:
- Call up information on the operating
status of your dishwasher
- Call up information on the programme
sequence of your dishwasher
Connecting your dishwasher to your
WiFi network will increase energy
consumption, even when the
dishwasher is switched off.
Make sure that your WiFi network
signal strength is strong enough at
the installation site of your
dishwasher.

Availability of the WiFi connection
The WiFi connection shares a frequency
range with other appliances (including
microwave ovens and remote control
toys). This can give rise to sporadic or
even complete connection failures.
Therefore, the availability of featured
functions cannot be guaranteed.
Miele@home availability
If you wish to use the Miele@mobile
app or other Miele networking solutions,
the Miele@home services must be
available in your country.
The Miele@home service is not
available in every country.

Dishwasher salt
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 on the wash
cabinet walls.
Mains water with a water hardness level
higher than 0.9mmol/l (5°dH –
German scale) must be softened. This
occurs automatically in the integrated
water softener. The water softener is
suitable for a water hardness level of up
to 6.5mmol/l (36°dH – German scale).
In order to maintain the functions of the
water softener, it must be reactivated
regularly. Reactivation occurs
automatically every ninth programme
sequence. At the start of the next
programme, an additional 4.4l of water
is required for this process. Energy
consumption increases by 0.015kWh
and the programme is extended by
3minutes.
The above only applies to the ECO
programme at a water hardness of
2.5mmol/l (14°dH – German scale).
For other programmes and water
hardness levels, the frequency of
reactivation will differ.
In order to be reactivated, the water
softener requires dishwasher salt.
Depending on the water hardness level
(<3.8mmol/l, or <21°dH – German
scale), dishwasher salt is not required if
combination detergents are being used
(see the “Powder detergent and
detergent tabs” section in the
“Detergent” chapter).
Damage caused by using
unsuitable salts.
Some types of salt may contain
insoluble components which can
cause the water softener to
malfunction.
Only use special coarse-grained
dishwasher salt or other pure kitchen
salt for reactivation.
Damage to the water softener
from detergent.
Detergent will damage the water
softener.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with
powder or liquid detergent.
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than 0.9mmol/l
(5°dH – German scale), you do not
need to add dishwasher salt. The salt
refill indicator will automatically switch
off after the water hardness has been
set accordingly (see the “Water
hardness” section in the “Settings”
chapter).
If you only ever use combination
detergent products in your dishwasher,
you can turn off both refill reminders if
you wish (see “Refill reminders” under
“Settings”).
Please make sure that if you stop using
combination detergents, you refill the
dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch
the refill reminders back on if required.
background
Before using for the first time
26
Filling the salt reservoir
Only use special coarse grained
reactivation salt with granules of approx.
1 - 4mm. Do not use other types of salt
such as cooking salt, agricultural grade
or gritting salt. These may contain
insoluble additives which can impair the
functioning of the water softener. If in
doubt consult the Miele Professional
Department.
Before filling the salt reservoir for the
first time, you must fill it with approx.
2l of water to enable the salt to
dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used
once, there is always sufficient water
in the salt reservoir.
Remove the lower basket from the
wash cabinet and unscrew the salt
reservoir cap.
Fill the salt reservoir with approx. 2l
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 up to 2kg
of salt, depending on the type of salt
used.
Clean off salt residues from around
the salt reservoir opening. Next,
screw the salt reservoir cap on again
firmly.
Refilling the salt
When the refill reminder Refill salt
appears in the display, wait until the
end of the programme and then refill
the salt reservoir.
Confirm with OK.
The salt refill indicator will go out.
Risk of corrosion due to saline
solution.
Saline solution that runs out can
cause corrosion in the wash cabinet
and to the load items.
Each time you remove the salt
reservoir cap, you must run the
Cold pre-wash programme
without any load items in the
dishwasher. This will dissolve and
remove any traces of salt from the
wash cabinet.
After the salt reservoir has been filled,
the salt refill indicator may still appear in
the display if the salt concentration has
not yet reached the correct level. In this
case, confirm the message again with
OK.
background
Before using for the first time
27
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling to and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase, and it
helps crockery dry faster after it has
been washed.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is
dispensed automatically.
Washing-up liquid or detergent
can cause damage.
Washing-up liquid and dishwasher
detergent will damage the rinse aid
reservoir.
Only fill it with rinse aid formulated
for domestic dishwashers.
Alternatively, you could use liquid citric
acid at a concentration of up to 10%.
The resulting rinsing and drying quality
will not, however, be as good as when
rinse aid is used.
Risk of acid damage.
The dishwasher can be damaged by
high concentrations of acid.
Under no circumstances should you
use citric acid with a higher acid
content.
If you only ever wish to use
combination detergent products in
your dishwasher, you do not need to
add rinse aid.
However, for optimum rinsing and
drying results, use dishwasher
detergent and add dishwasher salt
and rinse aid separately.
If you only ever use combination
detergent products in your dishwasher,
you can turn off both refill reminders if
you wish (see “Refill reminders” under
“Settings”).
Please make sure that if you stop using
combination detergents, you refill the
dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch
the refill reminders back on if required.
background
Before using for the first time

Adding rinse aid
Press the yellow button on the lid
of the rinse aid reservoir.
The lid will spring open.
Fill with rinse aid until the filling level
indicator (arrow) changes to a dark
colour while the door is horizontally
open.
The rinse aid reservoir holds
approximately 110ml.
Close the lid firmly until you hear it
click into place. Otherwise, water can
enter the rinse aid reservoir during a
programme.
Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This
prevents excess foam developing
during the next programme.
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for
the best wash result (see “Settings
chapter, “Rinse aid” section).
Filling the rinse aid reservoir
When the refill reminder Refill rinse aid
appears in the display, the reservoir
contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 to 3
programmes only.
Refill with rinse aid in plenty of time.
Confirm with OK.
The rinse aid refill reminder will
disappear.

Economical 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:
- Washing in a dishwasher generally
uses less water and energy than
washing by hand.
- There is no need to pre-wash items
under running water, and this
unnecessarily increases water and
energy consumption.
- Make full use of the basket capacity
without overloading the dishwasher.
This results in the most economical
dishwashing in terms of energy and
water consumption.
- Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling (see
“Programme chart”).
- Select the ECO programme for
energy-saving dishwashing. This
programme is the most efficient in
terms of its combined energy and
water consumption for cleaning
crockery with a normal level of soiling.
- Follow the detergent manufacturers
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
- If you are manually dosing the
detergent, reduce the amount by
1
/
3
when using powder detergent if the
baskets are only half full.

EcoFeedback consumption
indicator
The “Consumption” function is used for
calling up information about the water
consumption of your dishwasher (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).
The following information can be shown
on the display:
- An estimate of the consumption
before the programme sequence
- The actual consumption at the end of
the programme
- The total consumption of the
dishwasher
1. Estimated consumption
After a programme has been selected,
first the name of the programme and
then the estimated water
consumption will appear in the display
for a few seconds.
The estimated consumption will be
shown as a bar chart. The more bars
that are visible (), the higher the
water consumption.
The values are influenced by the
programme, any programme options
selected, the ambient conditions and
the size of the load.
The display will change automatically
from showing the estimated
consumption to showing the time
remaining.
The estimated consumption function is
activated as standard. This function can
be deactivated, though, if preferred (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).
2. Displaying consumption
At the end of the programme, you can
call up the actual water consumption for
the programme that has just been run.
Confirm the message Consumption
(OK) with OK.
Switching the dishwasher off at the
end of the programme will delete the
actual consumption values for the
programme that has just been run.
3. Total consumption
You can view the total consumption of
water for all previously used
programmes of your dishwasher (see
the “Consumption” section in the
“Settings” chapter).

General information
Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.
There is no need to pre-wash items
under running water.
Damage can be caused by ash,
sand, wax, lubricating grease or paint.
These substances will contaminate
the dishwasher and can then no
longer be removed.
Do not wash items soiled with these
substances in the dishwasher.
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in the
baskets, observing the following notes:
- Do not place crockery and cutlery
inside other items where they will
cover one another.
- Load the crockery so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures that
the items will be properly cleaned.
- Make sure that all items are securely
positioned.
- Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pots, etc. must be inverted in the
basket.
- Tall and narrow hollow items, such as
champagne glasses, should be placed
in the middle of the basket rather than
in the corners. This ensures the hollow
items are more easily accessed by the
water jets.
- Wide based items should ideally 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. Test for free
movement by manually rotating the
spray arms.
- Make sure that small items cannot fall
through the holders in the baskets.
They should therefore be placed in the
cutlery basket.
Some foods may contain natural dyes,
e.g. carrots, tomatoes or ketchup.
These dyes can discolour plastic items
in the dishwasher if large quantities of
these foods are in contact with the
crockery inside the appliance. The
stability of plastic items is not affected
by this discolouration.
Washing silverware can also cause
plastic items to discolour.
background
Loading the dishwasher
32
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: such items
are not suitable for dishwashers.
- Plastic items that are not heat
resistant: the high temperatures in the
dishwasher may cause them to melt
or lose shape.
- Copper, brass, tin and aluminium
items: these may discolour or become
dull.
- 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.
Silver
Silver that has been in contact with
foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions,
mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish
brine and marinades.
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.
Tip: Rub the silver dry with a cloth.
Damage due to caustic alkaline
detergents.
Aluminium parts (e.g. the grease
filters of cooker hoods) can be
damaged by caustic alkaline
detergents. In extreme cases, there is
a risk of an explosive chemical
reaction (such as an explosive
oxyhydrogen gas reaction).
Aluminium components must not be
cleaned in the dishwasher with
caustic alkaline commercial or
industrial detergents.
Tip: When purchasing new crockery and
cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher-
proof if you want to wash them in the
dishwasher.
Glass care
- Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing in the dishwasher.
When washing delicate glassware in
the dishwasher, ensure that only a
special glass care programme with
very low temperatures is selected
(see “Programme overview”). This will
reduce the risk of clouding.
- Purchase glassware that is
dishwasher-safe (e.g. Riedel
glassware).
- Use detergents with glass protective
additives.

Damage due to leaking water.
If you run the dishwasher without the
upper basket, water can leak out of
the dishwasher.
Only run the dishwasher with the
upper basket in place (except during
the programmeTall items , 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 and
mixing spoons should be placed lying
down across the front of the upper
basket.
Loading the FlexCare cup rack
You can put cups, small bowls and flat
crockery on the FlexCare cup rack.
Glasses can be arranged along the cup

Powder detergents and
detergent tabs
Use powder detergent or detergent
tabs only in the door dispenser
compartment.
Only use detergent tabs that are
quick dissolving.
Suitable detergent tabs are available
from the Miele range. When using
combination detergents (tabs that
offer rinse aid as well as water
softeners and detergent), it is
recommended that you also add
rinse aid and dishwasher salt (at a
lower concentration) owing to the
short programme running times and
potentially the water quality.
Add powder detergent or detergent
tabs to the detergent compartment.
Dispensing detergent
The detergent compartment holds a
maximum of 50ml.
There are marks in the detergent
compartment to aid with dispensing:
20, 30, max. When the door is opened
to a horizontal position, they show the
approximate fill level in ml and the
maximum fill height.
They also indicate the approximate fill
level in grams for powder detergents,
depending on the manufacturer and the
coarseness.
Follow the detergent dosage
recommended by the manufacturer
on the packaging.
Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30ml of
powder detergent to the detergent
compartment, depending on the
degree of soiling of the crockery.
Failure to dispense the recommended
amount of detergent may impair
cleaning results.

Periodic checks
To prolong the service life of the
dishwasher, maintenance should be
carried out at least once a year by the
Miele Customer Service Department.
Maintenance covers the following:
- Electrical safety according to national
regulations (e.g. VDE0701/0702 in
Germany)
- Door mechanism and door seal
- Any screw connections and
connectors in the wash chamber
- Water inlet and drainage
- Internal and external dispensing
systems
- Spray arms
- Filter combination
- Sump including drain pump and non-
return valve
- All baskets and inserts
The following operational tests will be
carried out as part of the maintenance:
- A programme sequence will be run as
a test run
- Seals will be tested for water
tightness
- All relevant measuring systems will be
safety tested, including fault displays
- Safety features
Check the condition of your
dishwasher regularly (approx. every
4–6months). In this way, faults and
problems can be avoided.
Damage due to unsuitable
cleaning agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable
cleaning agents can alter or discolour
all surfaces.
Only use cleaning agents formulated
for use on the relevant surfaces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely self-
cleaning, provided that the correct
amount of detergent is always used.
If, despite this, limescale or grease
deposits build up in the chamber, these
can be removed with a proprietary
dishwasher cleaner (available from the
Miele Customer Service Department or
the Miele webshop). Follow the
instructions on the product packaging.
Clean the filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.
background
Cleaning and care
61
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
The door seals and the sides of the
dishwasher door cannot be reached and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides and seals of the dishwasher
door with a damp cloth on a regular
basis to prevent the build-up of
mould.
Cleaning the control panel
The control panel should only be
wiped with a damp cloth.
Cleaning the appliance front
Damage due to soiling.
Soiling that is left too long might
become impossible to remove and
could cause the external surfaces to
alter or discolour.
It is therefore best to remove any
soiling immediately.
Clean the appliance front with a clean
soft sponge and a solution of warm
water and washing-up liquid. After
cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry using
a soft cloth.
A clean, damp microfibre cloth
without detergent can also be used.
To avoid damaging the external
surfaces, do not use the following:
- Detergents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides
- Detergents containing descaling
agents
- Abrasive detergents, e.g. scouring
powder, scouring liquid, or pumice
stones
- Detergents containing solvents
- Stainless steel cleaning agents
- Dishwasher cleaner
- Oven cleaner
- Glass cleaning agents
- Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges
that have been previously used with
abrasive cleaning agents
- Eraser stain remover blocks
- Sharp metal scrapers
- Wire wool
- Steam cleaners

Cleaning the spray arms
Particles of food can get stuck in the
spray arm nozzles and bearings. The
spray arms should therefore be
inspected regularly (approx. every 2–
4months).
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
Without filters, soiling can enter the
circulation system and cause a
blockage.
Do not run a wash programme
without the lower spray arm or
without the filters.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation
system.
Switch the dishwasher off.
Removing the upper and middle spray
arms
Take out the 3D MultiFlex tray (if your
dishwasher is fitted with one).
Push the upper spray arm upwards to
engage the inner ratchet. Then
unscrew the spray arm by rotating the
screw thread anti-clockwise.

Checking the filters in the wash
cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soiling from
the suds solution. This prevents soiling
getting into the circulation system and
re-entering the wash cabinet through
the spray arms.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
Without filters, soiling can enter the
circulation system and cause a
blockage.
Do not run a wash programme
without the lower spray arm or
without the filters.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation
system.
The filters can become blocked by
soiling that collects over time. 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
sequences.
Check the filter combination.
Clean the filter combination if
necessary.
Then confirm the message with OK.
Cleaning the filters
Switch the dishwasher off.

Electrical connection
All work on the electrical
connection must be carried out by
the Miele Customer Service
Department, an authorised Miele
dealer or a qualified electrician.
- The electrical installation must be in
compliance with current local and
national safety regulations
(DINVDE0100 in Germany).
- The connection to the power supply
must comply with national regulations
(plug and socket must be accessible
after the appliance has been
installed). An electrical safety test can
then easily be carried out, e.g. after
any service or maintenance work.
- It is recommended that the electrical
connection is made with a suitably
rated plug and socket.
- If the dishwasher is hard wired to the
power supply, connection should be
made via a mains switch with all-pole
isolation. The mains switch must
ensure a gap of at least 3mm
between all open contacts and must
be able to be locked in the off
position.
- Equipotential bonding should be
carried out if required.
- If replacing the mains cable, use only
original Miele spare parts or a suitable
cable with core cable ends.
- For technical data, see the data plate
or wiring diagram supplied.
The dishwasher must only be operated
with the voltage, frequency and fuse
rating shown on the data plate.
This appliance can be converted to a
different type of power supply in
accordance with the conversion
diagram and wiring diagram supplied.
Converting the appliance to a
different type of power supply can
lead to longer programme running
times, resulting in increased energy
consumption.
The declared consumption values will
only be achieved if the appliance
remains in the state in which it was
delivered.
The data plates (with VDE test
certificate, etc.) are located at the back
of the dishwasher and on the inner
panel of the door.
The wiring diagram is supplied with the
dishwasher.
The conversion diagram is attached to
the electrical connection plinth panel.
Equipotential bonding connection
There is a screw connection point
marked at the back of the appliance,
to which additional equipotential
bonding can be connected.

The Miele Waterproof system
As long as your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele Waterproof
system will provide extensive protection
against water damage throughout its
service life.
Water inlet
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
- The dishwasher must be connected to
the water supply in strict accordance
with current local and national water
authority regulations.
- The water used must comply with
European regulations for drinking
water quality as a minimum.
If the water supply has a high iron
content, there is a danger of corrosion
occurring on items being cleaned in
the dishwasher, as well as the
appliance itself.
If the chloride content of the water
exceeds 100mg/l, the risk of
corrosion to items being cleaned in
the dishwasher will be further
increased.
- In certain regions (e.g. mountainous
regions), the water composition may
cause precipitates to form, requiring
the use of softened water for the
dishwasher.
- The dishwasher complies with all valid
European standards on the protection
of drinking water.
- The water connection pressure (flow
pressure at the water connection)
must be between 100 and 1000kPa
(1.0 and 10bar).
If the water pressure is lower than
this, the fault message Water intake
will appear in the display (see
Troubleshooting”).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducing valve must be
fitted.
- A stopcock valve with a
3
/
4
inch
threaded union must be provided on
site. The valve should be easily
accessible, since the water inlet
should be shut off whenever the
appliance is not in use.
- The DN10 inlet hose is approx. 1.5m
long terminating in a
3
/
4
inch screw
thread. A 1.5m long flexible metal
extension hose tested to 140bar
(14,000kPa) is available as an
optional accessory if required. The
inlet filter or the flow regulator in the
screw thread must not be removed
under any circumstances.

Risk of damage from leaking
water.
The connection point is subject to
mains water pressure. Water leaking
from it can cause damage.
You should therefore open the
stopcock slowly and check for leaks.
Correct the position of the seal and
screw thread if appropriate. Check
the screw connections regularly to
make sure they are still tight.
Risk of damage due to excessive
pressure.
A brief increase in the water
connection pressure can damage
components of the dishwasher.
This dishwasher must only be
operated when it is connected to a
fully vented plumbing system.
Risk of electric shock from mains
voltage.
There are live electrical components
in the water inlet hose.
The water inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
(see illustration).
Regulations in the UK
To comply with the water regulations
requirements, this dishwasher must be
connected to the mains potable water
supply via the double check valve
supplied with the machine.

Connecting the drainage
system
- 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 drain hose should be
connected to a separate on-site drain
for the dishwasher only. If no separate
drain is available, we recommend
connecting it to a dual-chamber
siphon.
- The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22mm.
Hose clips are supplied with the
dishwasher.
- The drain hose must not be
shortened! The 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 no higher than
1m.
- The drainage system must be able to
accommodate a minimum drainage
flow of 16l/min.
Make sure that there are no kinks
in the hose, and that it is not
squashed or stretched.
Hose installation when water drainage
is low
If the on-site water drainage connection
is situated lower than the guide path for
the lower basket rollers in the door, the
water drain hose must be installed at
that level with a bend in it. Otherwise,
water may flow out of the wash cabinet
during a programme.

Network configuration
You can use this menu option to reset
all WiFi module settings (if available) to
the factory default settings.
The network configuration should be
reset whenever a dishwasher is being
disposed of or sold, or if a used
dishwasher is being put into operation.

setting in which your dishwasher is
being used to enable you to order the
right detergents and other consumables
(see “Detergent – Field of application”).

dishwashers are used. Suitable
detergents are available from Miele.
Select the setting you want and
confirm with OK.

from it.

want to install the update.
The update may take several minutes.
Please note the following information
about the RemoteUpdate function:

SmartStart
This menu option will only be
displayed if you have connected your
dishwasher to your WiFi network (see

most economical.
To use this function you may need
further technical accessories.
If you have activated
SmartStartPermitted, the Timer menu
of the selected programme will no
longer show EcoStart but will instead
show SmartStart. The dishwasher will
then start within the timeframe
specified when it receives a signal from
the energy supplier.
If it has not received a signal from the
energy supplier by the latest possible
start time, the dishwasher will start
automatically.
EcoStart
In order to run your dishwasher in the
most economical way, you can use the
EcoStartoption to take advantage of
your electricity suppliers cheaper
energy tariffs (see the “Timer” section
in the “Options” chapter).
With this option selected, your
dishwasher will start automatically at
your electricity suppliers cheapest tariff
times.
To use this option you must first set up
to three electricity tariff times in which
the dishwasher can start. You can
allocate different priorities to these time
zones. The time with the cheapest
electricity tariff will be given Priority 1.
Contact your electricity supplier to find
out the times of the cheapest energy
tariffs.
Once the energy tariff times have been
set, you can use the EcoStartoption to
set the latest finish time required for
each programme.
The dishwasher will then start
automatically during the cheapest
energy tariff time. The programme will
end at the set finish time at the latest.
