Warning and Safety instructions
Correct installation
The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance
~
with the diagram supplied.
Take care, both before and during installation of the
~
dishwasher, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger
of injury. 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-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.
The door springs must be adjusted equally on both sides. They
~
are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left
open at 45°. It is important that the door is held in place by the
springs and cannot fall open.

Warning and Safety instructions
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. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent has been
swallowed or inhaled.
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over
~
it.
Dishes can be very hot at the end of the programme.
~
Allow them to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle
before unloading.
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.

Warning and Safety instructions
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
~
This will cause serious damage to the reservoir.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher
~
detergent. This 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,
~
as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the
functioning of the water 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.
Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
~
such as disposable plastic containers, or plastic cutlery and
crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high
temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose
shape.
On models with "Delay start", make sure that the dispenser is dry
~
before adding detergent. Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog
if poured into a damp dispenser and may not be thoroughly
dispersed.

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 should 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:

Caring for our environment
Energy saving 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:
^ If your water supply is suitable, this
dishwasher can be connected to a
hot water supply for further
economies. If the water is heated by
solar panels, for example, this would
be energy efficient.
However, if your water is heated by
electricity we would recommend
connection to cold water.
^ 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 for
energy-saving dishwashing.
This programme is the most efficient
in terms of its combined energy and
water consumption at cleaning
normally soiled crockery.
^ 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
Water softener
In the event of a fault, it will help the
service technician if you know the
hardness of your local water supply.
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.
^ Enter the water hardness below:
mmol/l or °d
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
water softener. The water softener in
this dishwasher is suitable for a water
hardness level of up to 12.6 mmol/l
(70 °d - German scale).
The dishwasher is programmed at
the factory for a water hardness level
of 2.7 mmol/l (15 °d - German scale).
If this setting corresponds to the
hardness of your water, you do not
need to do anything more.
If your water is harder or softer, you will
need to programme the water hardness
level. See following section.
– The water softener requires
dishwasher salt.
Depending on the water hardness
level (ß 3.8 mmol/l, or 21 °d German
scale), dishwasher salt is not
required if combination tablets are
being used (see "Detergent").
– The dishwasher must be
programmed for the water hardness
in your area.
– Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.
Where the water hardness fluctuates
e.g. between 6.7 - 9.0 mmol/l
(37 - 50 °d - German scale) always
programme the dishwasher to the
higher value (9.0 mmol/l in this
example).

Rinse aid
Adding 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 always cause serious
damage to the reservoir.
^ Press the button on the lid of the
rinse aid reservoir in the direction of
the arrow. The flap will spring open.
Alternatively, it is possible to use
– Household vinegar with a max. 5%
acid content
or
– Liquid citric acid with 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
containing 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.

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.

Detergent
You can also buy combination products
(see "Additional functions,

DetergentAgent", if applicable).
In addition to detergent, these products
contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.
They 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 "5 in 1", "7 in 1" ,
"All in 1", etc.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various
active ingredients, the most important
of which are:
– Phosphates to prevent calcification.
Refer to the manufacturer's packaging
as to whether combination products are
suitable for the water hardness level in
your area.
– Alkalis to aid removal of dried on
soiling.
– Enzymes to break down starch and
loosen protein.
Please note that the cleaning and
drying results of combination
detergents can vary greatly.
– Oxygen based bleaching agents to
remove coloured stains (e.g. tea,
coffee, tomato sauce).
For optimum cleaning and drying
results, use Miele dishwasher
detergent and add Miele salt and
Miele rinse aid separately. See
"Optional accessories".
Most dishwasher detergents contain
phosphates and are mildly alkaline with
enzymes and oxygen based bleaching
agents. Phosphate free products are
rare.
Dispensing
^ Follow the dosage recommended by
Types of detergent:
the manufacturer on the packaging.
– Powder and liquid gel detergents.
These detergents allow you to adjust
the amount dispensed according to
the amount of load and level of
soiling.
^ Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml
detergent to 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").
– Tab detergents. These are suitable
for most levels of soiling.
^ Tabs may not dissolve completely
when the Quick wash 40°C
programme (depending on model) is
used.

Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every 4 - 6 months). This
way faults and problems can be
avoided.
^ Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
^ Wipe off any food or drink residues
which may have dripped onto the
sides of dishwasher door before
closing it.

agents can alter or discolour the
external 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*.
Follow the instructions on the
packaging.
If you mainly use low temperature
programmes (below 50 °C), bacteria
and unpleasant odours can build in the
wash cabinet. To clean the wash
cabinet and prevent unpleasant odours
building up, run the Pots & Pans 75°C
programme once a month.
Make sure that you also clean the filters
in the wash cabinet regularly.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning 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.
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
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.
Check the condition of the filters
regularly and clean them if necessary.
^ Switch the dishwasher off.
,Make sure that when cleaning
the filters, no coarse soil falls into the
circulation system, causing a
blockage.

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.
^ Pull the lower spray arm firmly
upwards to remove it.
^ Push the middle spray arm upwards

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.

^ 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 - Checking 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

Plumbing
The Miele waterproof anti-leak
system
– 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 too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be
fitted.
Providing your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.
After connecting the dishwasher to
the water supply, check that all
plumbing connections are
watertight.
Connection to the water
supply
,Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
,To avoid any damage to the
appliance, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.
– 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 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.
! The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
as it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
– 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.

Plumbing
Drainage
After connecting the dishwasher to
the drainage system, check that all
plumbing connections are
watertight.
– 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.
Venting the drainage system
– The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
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 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.
To vent it:
^ Open the dishwasher door fully.
– 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.
^ Pull the lower spray arm firmly
upwards to remove it.
^ Cut off the top of the vent valve in the

kinks in the hose, and that it is not
