Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
The packaging consists of the following
materials:
Outer packaging:
– Corrugated cardboard made from up
to 100% recyclable material:
or: Polyethylene (PE) shrink wrap
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
– Polyproplylene (PP) strapping
Inner packaging:
– Chlorine and fluorine free expanded
polystyrene (EPS)
To enable sorting by type of plastic for
recycling, all plastic parts of the
appliance are labelled with international
standard symbols.
– Base, lid frame and support battens
made from untreated natural wood
from renewable forests
– Polyethylene (PE) protective wrap
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are

Caring for the environment
Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in its use of water and
electricity. You can make the most of
your appliance by following these tips:
^ For most economical dishwashing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^ Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.
^ Select the Energy save programme
for energy-saving dishwashing.
^ If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be
connected to a hot water supply.
Select Without heater when
washing lightly to normally soiled
dishes.
The water will not be heated in this
programme. However, because the
water is not heated, drying results
may not match those of other
programmes.
^ Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
^ When using powder or liquid
detergent you can use 1/3 less
detergent if baskets are only half full.

Before using for the first time
^ 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.
Miele branded products are available
from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the internet at
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).
Before using the appliance for
the first time, you require:
– Approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt,
– Domestic dishwasher detergent,
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.
– 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.
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.
This dishwasher is fitted with a water
softener sensor which automatically
sets the water softener unit for the
local water hardness level.
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).
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.

Before using for the first time
You can check the water hardness level ^ When filling the salt reservoir only
measured by the water softener sensor
in the display (see Settings menu !,
Water hardness).
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!
^ Press the button on the lid of the salt
reservoir in the direction of the arrow
until the flap springs open.
,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.
^ Lift up the funnel.

Salt indicator
Do not fill the salt reservoir with
water.
^ 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.
^ 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.
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).
Do not add any more than 1 kg of
salt.
,After filling the salt reservoir, run
the Quick wash programme immedi-
ately (without any crockery in the
dishwasher, and without selecting
the Turbo extra option) to remove
any traces of salt from the cabinet.
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.

Before using for the first time
Rinse aid
Adding rinsing agent
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.
^ Press the button on the lid of the
rinse aid reservoir in the direction of
the arrow until the flap springs open.
Alternatively, it is possible to use
– Household vinegar with a max. 5%
acid content
or
– Liquid citric acid up to 10% acid
content. The resulting rinsing and
drying quality will not, however, be
as good as when rinse aid is used.
,Do not use vinegar with a higher
acid content (e.g. vinegar essence
25% acid). This would damage the
dishwasher.
If you only ever use combination
products containing rinse aid in your
dishwasher, you do not need to add
rinse aid.

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

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

^ Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This
prevents over-foaming occurring
during the next programme.
You can adjust the rinse aid dosage
for best results (see Settings menu !,

Loading the dishwasher
Note
– Wide based items should be placed
at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.
Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.
– The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or hang
through the baskets.
There is no need to rinse items under
running water.
If in doubt, test for free movement by
manually rotating the spray arms.
,Do not wash items soiled with
ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease
or paint in the dishwasher.
These substances will damage the
dishwasher.
– 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).
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in
the baskets, but the following notes
should be observed:
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.
– 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.

Items not suitable for
dishwashers:
We recommend:
– When purchasing new crockery and
cutlery, make sure they are
dishwasher-proof.
– 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.
– 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.
– Craft items, antiques, valuable vases
and decorative glassware are also
not suitable for dishwashers.
– If in doubt, wash delicate glassware
by hand.
– Plastic items which are not heat
resistant: the high temperatures in
the dishwasher may cause them to
melt or lose shape.
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.
– 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.
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.

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.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various
active ingredients, the most important
of which are:
– Phosphates to prevent calcification.
For optimum cleaning and drying
results use Miele dishwasher
detergent and add Miele salt and
Miele rinse aid separately.
– Alkalis to aid removal of dried on
soiling.
– Enzymes to break down starch and
dissolve protein.
Dispensing
– Oxygen based bleaching agents to
remove coloured stains (e.g. tea,
coffee, tomato sauce).
^ 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.
Most dishwasher detergents contain
phosphate and are mildly alkaline with
enzymes and oxygen based bleaching
agents. Phosphate free products are
rare.
With very heavy soiling you can also
add a small amount of detergent to
compartment l (see "Programme
chart").
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.

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.
Switching off
If the door is closed again, the
programme will continue from the point
it was at before the door was opened.
At the end of a programme:
^ Switch the dishwasher off using the
On/Off sensor K.
,Water in the dishwasher may be
hot. Danger of scalding.
The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is switched off with
the K sensor.
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.
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.

Delay start
The start time of a programme can be delayed, e.g. to benefit
from economy rates of electricity. A delay start time of
between 15 minutes and 24 hours can be selected. The delay
start time is set in 15 minute steps.
When using the Delay start function, make sure that the
detergent compartment is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry with a cloth if necessary. If the compartment is
wet, powder detergent can become lumpy and stick to the
dispenser, with the result that it is not fully dispensed.
Do not use liquid detergent when selecting Delay start, as
it can run into the dishwasher before it is required.

Cleaning and care
Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet
Cleaning the filters
^ Switch the dishwasher off.
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution, preventing it
accessing the circulation system and
re-entering the cabinet through the
spray arms.
,This dishwasher must not be
used without all the filters in place.
Collection of coarse soil may cause the
filters to clog. The level of soiling and
time it takes before the filters need
cleaning will vary depending on use.
^ Turn the handle anti-clockwise to

^ 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.

it lies flat in the base of the wash
cabinet.
^ Press catches a together in the
direction of the arrows as shown,
and open the filter b.
^ Then turn the handle clockwise, until
the arrows line up, to lock the filter
combination in place.
^ Rinse all the filters under running
water.

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.
^ 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.
Cleaning the filter:
^ Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply. Switch off at the mains
socket and withdraw the plug.
^ 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.
^ Close the stopcock.
^ Unscrew the inlet hose.

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").
The drain pump is situated under the
non-return valve (see arrow).
^ Scoop the water out of the cabinet
^ 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

Plumbing
The Miele waterproof anti-leak
system
– 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.
Providing your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.
– 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).
Connection to the water
supply
,Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be
fitted.
– 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.
,To avoid any damage to the
appliance, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.
– 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.
! The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
as it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
– A stopcock with a 3/4" male thread
must be provided on site.

Drainage
Venting 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.
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.
– The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
To vent it:
– The drain hose can be extended
using a connection piece to attach a
further length of hose.
^ Open the dishwasher door fully.
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.
^ Pull the lower spray arm firmly
upwards to remove it.
^ Cut off the top of the vent valve in the

become blocked.
wash cabinet.
– 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.
