 Warning and Safety instructions

This dishwasher complies with current safety requirements. Inap-

propriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to
property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the dishwasher,

please read the installation sheet and the operating instructions
carefully before it is installed and used for the first time. They con-
tain important information on its installation, safety, use and main-
tenance.

Keep the installation sheet and the operating instructions in a safe

place and pass them on to any future owner.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance

with this information.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application
 This dishwasher is intended for use in domestic households and
similar working and residential environments.
 The dishwasher is not intended for outdoor use.
 It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specified in these
operating instructions, for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery.
Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be
dangerous.
 The appliance can only be used by people with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use
it in a safe way and recognise and understand the consequences of
incorrect operation.

10
 Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appli-
ance unless they are constantly supervised.
 Children 8 years and older may only use the dishwasher unsuper-
vised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise
and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance
unsupervised.
 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the dishwasher and do
not let them play with it. There is a danger that children playing might
shut themselves in the dishwasher.
 If the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model) is
active keep young children away from the area in which the door
opens. Danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the open-
ing mechanism.
 Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be
kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children
could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and
suffocate.
 Keep children away from detergents. Dishwasher detergents can
cause burning in the mouth, nose and throat if swallowed, or inhibit
breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is
open. There could still be detergent residues in the cabinet. Seek
medical attention immediately if your child has swallowed or inhaled
detergent.

11
Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
 A damaged dishwasher is dangerous. Check it for any recognis-
able damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.
 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re-
quirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installa-
tion tested by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
 Reliable and safe operation of this dishwasher can only be as-
sured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 The dishwasher must only be plugged into the electricity supply
via a suitable switched socket using a suitable fused plug (it must
not be hard-wired). The electrical socket must be easily accessible
after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from
the electricity supply at any time.
 There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher.
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 radi-
ant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob could
damage the dishwasher. For the same reason it should not be in-
stalled next to open fires or other appliances which give off heat,
such as heaters etc.
 To avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and fre-
quency) match the mains electricity supply before connecting the
dishwasher to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

12
 Warning and Safety instructions

 Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has

been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door
springs.
 The dishwasher may only be operated if the door opening mech-
anism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of danger
whilst the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model)
is active.
To check that the door opening mechanism is working correctly:
– the door springs must be adjusted equally on both sides. They
are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left
half open (approx. 45° opening angle). It is also important that the
door cannot fall open.
– the door locking pins automatically retract when the door opens
at the end of the drying phase.
 Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance (fire hazard).
 The appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
 Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of
frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic
control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.
 To avoid any damage to the appliance, the dishwasher must only
be operated when it is connected to a fully vented plumbing system.
 The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be dipped in water.
 There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not shorten
the water inlet hose, even if it is too long.

13
Warning and Safety instructions

 The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water

damage, provided the following conditions are met:
– The dishwasher is correctly installed and plumbed in.
– The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced
where it can be seen that this is necessary.
– the stopcock is turned off during longer absences from the home
(e.g. whilst on holiday).
The Waterproof system will work even if the appliance is switched
off. However, the appliance must remain connected to the electricity
supply.
 The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be
between 50 and 1000 kPa (0.5 and 10 bar).
 If the dishwasher gets damaged, switch it off at the mains imme-
diately and call your Miele Dealer or the Miele Service Department.
 While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
guarantee is invalidated.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply (switch it off
and withdraw the plug from the socket).
 If the connection cable is damaged it must be replaced with a
special cable of the same type (available from Miele). For safety reas-
ons this work must be carried out by a Miele authorised service
technician only.

14
 Warning and Safety instructions

 This dishwasher is supplied with a special lamp to cope with par-

ticular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance,
abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must only be
used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for room
lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised
person or the Miele Service Department.

Correct installation
 The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance
with the installation sheet supplied.
 Take care, both before and during installation of the dish-
washer, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger of in-
jury. Wear protective gloves.
 The dishwasher must be correctly aligned to ensure problem-free
operation.
 In order to ensure stability, built-under and integrated 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-un-
der ("U") model, you will need to order the appropriate conversion
kit. If you remove the existing plinth, you must replace it with a U-
model plinth. This is necessary to avoid the risk of injury caused by
protruding metal parts.
 The door springs must be adjusted equally on both sides. They
are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left
half open (approx. 45° opening angle). It is also important that the
door cannot fall open.
The appliance may only be used with correctly adjusted door
springs.

15
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
 Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
 Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher deter-
gents can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed,
or inhibit breathing. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent
has been swallowed or inhaled.
 You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over
it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
 Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dish-
washer to tip and be damaged, and you could get injured.
 Dishes can be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow them
to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unload-
ing.
 Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dish-
washers. Do not use washing-up liquid.
 Do not use commercial or industrial detergents as these may
cause damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical re-
action (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).
 Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
This will cause serious damage to the reservoir.
 Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dish-
washer detergent will damage the water softener. Make sure you
have picked up the correct packet of dishwasher salt before filling
the salt reservoir!
 Only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation.
Do not use other salts such as cooking salt, agricultural grade or
gritting salt. These may contain insoluble additives which can impair
the functioning of the water softener.

16
 Warning and Safety instructions

 In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cut-

lery is cleaned and dried more efficiently if placed in the basket with
the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place
knives and forks etc. with the handles upwards.
 Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery should not
be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dish-
washer may cause them to melt or lose shape.
 If you use the "FlexiTimer/Delay start" option (depending on
model), make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dis-
penser and may not be thoroughly dispersed.
 Please observe the information given in "Technical data" regarding
the capacity of the dishwasher.

Accessories
 Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manu-
facturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liab-
ility.

Disposal of your old dishwasher

 Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot accident-
ally shut themselves in. Make appropriate arrangements for the dis-
posal of the appliance.

 Caring for the environment

Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-
nomical in its use of water and electri-
city.
You can make the most of your appli-
ance by following these tips:
– For most economical dishwashing,
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
– Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.
– Select the ECO programme (depend-
ing on model) for energy-saving dish-
washing. This programme is the most
efficient in terms of its combined en-
ergy and water consumption at clean-
ing normally soiled crockery.
– If your dishwasher is connected to a
hot water supply select the SolarSave
programme for washing a lightly to
normally soiled load. Because the
water is not heated in this pro-
gramme, crockery may still be slightly
damper at the end of this programme
than it would be with other pro-
grammes.
– Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
– When using powder or liquid deter-
1

DetergentAgent
For optimum cleaning results, the dish-
washer automatically adjusts the pro-
gramme sequence to the type of deter-
gent being used. Depending on the pro-
gramme, this can mean that the running
time and energy consumption vary
slightly.
If you only ever use combination
products containing salt and rinse aid in
your dishwasher, you can switch the re-
minders off if you wish (see "Settings
menu, Refill reminders"). The Detergent-
Agent function will not be affected by
this.

Please make sure that if you start us-

ing dishwasher salt and rinse aid
again, you switch the reminders back
on.

Cleaning the drain pump and

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"). The drain pump is situated under the
non-return valve (see arrow).
 Scoop the water out of the cabinet
using a suitable container or utensil.  Remove all foreign objects from the
drain pump carefully (watch out for
glass splinters which are particularly
difficult to detect). Turn the drain
pump impeller by hand to check that
there are no more obstructions. You
will feel a little resistance when you
turn the impeller.
