Before using for the first time
Every dishwasher is tested before
leaving the factory. Any water
remaining in the machine is from the
final factory test and does not
indicate that the machine has been
used.
Important: The salt container must
be filled with 1 quart (1 l) of water
before adding salt for the first time
so the salt can dissolve
properly. Water does not have to be
added with subsequent refills.
Filling the salt container
,Inadvertently filling the salt
container with dishwashing
detergent (including liquid
detergent) will damage the water
softener.
,Only use water softener salt

dishwashers. Other salts may
contain insoluble additives which
can impair the water softener.
^ Place the provided funnel over the
salt container and carefully fill it with
salt. The salt container holds approx.
2.2 lbs (1 kg) of salt, depending on
the type of salt.

Items not recommended for
dishwashing
Glassware:
– There are no standard guidelines for
washing glassware, when in doubt
wash by hand.
– Cutlery with wooden handles
– Wooden cutting boards
– When purchasing new dishes,
glasses and cutlery, make sure they
are dishwasher safe. Only wash
items marked "dishwasher safe" in
the dishwasher.
– Glued items such as old knives with
handles glued together around the
shank of the blade
– Handmade craft items, antique,
metal trimmed or decorative
glassware
– If fine glassware is washed in the
dishwasher select the "China &
Crystal" program*. This will reduce
the risk of clouding.
– Plastic items that are not heat
resistant
– Copper, brass, tin or aluminum
Silver and aluminum:
– Dishes with color painted over the
glaze. These dishes may fade over
time
– Silver or aluminum items may tarnish.
– Silverware previously cleaned with a
silver polish may be damp or spotted
at the end of a program where water
has adhered to the polish. This can
be rubbed off with a soft, dry cloth.
Silver that has been cleaned in an
immersion dip is usually dry at the
end of a program, but may tarnish.
– Fine glassware and crystal items
should only be washed using the
"China & Crystal" program*.
Otherwise clouding or etching may
occur after frequent washing.
– Cast iron pots and pans
– If left to dry, foods containing sulfur
can discolor silver. These include
egg yolk, onions, mayonnaise,
mustard, fish and marinades.
* depending on model
– Silverware may tarnish or pit if
washed next to stainless steel.
Leave space between these metals.
If unsure whether your china and
crystal are dishwasher safe, please
check with the manufacturer. The
China & Crystal program*, although
extremely gentle and thorough can
cause the china and crystal to "wear"
if they are not dishwasher safe.
– Clean aluminum items, e.g. grease
filters, with domestic dishwasher
detergent only.

can be accommodated.
The upper basket can be raised or
lowered to accommodate tall items.
For example: If the upper basket is in
its highest position a plate with a
diameter of 12 3/16" (31 cm) can be fit in
the lower basket.
The basket can also be angled to fit tall
items in both, the upper and lower
baskets. The angles should not be set
to opposite extremes. This will block the
middle spray arm. Take care when
sliding the basket in and out in this
position.
^ Slide out the upper basket.

Plumbing
Waterproof system
Connection to the water
supply
All Miele dishwashers have a safety
valve located on the incoming water
line and a sealed underside with a
water sensor.
,Installation, repairs and other
work by unqualified persons could
be dangerous.
If a fault occurs, the water intake is
stopped and the drain pump is
activated. Water damage, if any, is
minimized.
,Do not drink water from the
dishwasher!
Providing the dishwasher was installed
correctly by a Miele technician, the
waterproof system will protect you from
water damage throughout the lifetime of
the machine.
– The dishwasher can heat its own
water to the temperature required by
the wash program. This allows for
connection of the machine to either a
hot (max. 140°F / 60°C) or cold water
source.
For lowest energy consumption you
may connect the dishwasher to a
cold water source.
For fastest possible wash times, with
slightly higher energy consumption,
connect the dishwasher to a hot
water source.
– The inlet hose is approximately 5 ft.
(1.5m) long.
– The water inlet hose comes
equipped with a 3/4" female hose
thread connector. This can be
directly connected to a water supply
with 3/4" MHT (male hose thread
ends).
If not connected directly to a water
supply valve, an appropriate
adapter (not required) is required.

– If the water pressure if lower, a
"Water Intake" notification will be
shown. See "Frequently Asked
Questions" for more information.
,To prevent damage to the
dishwasher, it must only be
connected to a fully vented drainage
system.
– If the water pressure is higher than
shown, a pressure reducing valve
must be used.
,Do not cut the intake hose. It
contains electrical wiring. If the hose
is cut, the dishwasher will not work.
There will be a water leak and you
could be injured. If the hose is too
long, coil it neatly and place it
