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 recognisa‐
ble 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 assur‐
ed 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. Dan‐
ger 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 instal‐
led 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 frequen‐
cy) match the mains electricity supply before connecting the dish‐
washer to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

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 mecha‐
nism 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 cut the
water inlet hose, even if it is too long.

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 30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 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) by a Miele au‐
thorised service technician only.

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct installation
The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance
with the installation diagram 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 dishwash‐
ers must only be installed under a continuous worktop which is se‐
cured 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.

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.

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 mod‐
el), 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" regard‐
ing 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 lia‐
bility.
Disposal of your old dishwasher
Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot acciden‐
tally 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 electrici‐
ty.
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
cleaning normally soiled crockery.
– Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent dos‐
age.
– When using powder or liquid deter‐
gent you can use 1/3 less detergent if
baskets are only half full.
– If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be con‐
nected to a hot water supply for fur‐
ther economies. If the water is heated
by for example, solar panels, this
would be energy efficient.
However, if your water is heated by
electricity we would recommend con‐
nection to cold water.

Before using for the first time
Enter the water hardness below:
____________mmol/l or °d
Water softener
In order to achieve good cleaning re‐
sults, the dishwasher needs to operate
with soft water. Hard water results in a
build-up of calcium deposits on crock‐
ery and in the dishwasher.
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 hard‐
ness of your water you do not need to
do anything more.
Mains water with a hardness level high‐
er 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
the dishwasher is suitable for a water
hardness level of up to 12.6 mmol/l (70
°d - German scale).
However, if you have a different water
hardness you must adjust the water
softener to match your water hardness.
– The water softener requires dish‐
washer salt.
Depending on the water hardness
level (< 3.8 mmol/l, or 21 °d - Ger‐
man scale), dishwasher salt is not re‐
quired if combination tablets are be‐
ing used (see "Operation, Deter‐
gent").
– The dishwasher must be program‐
med to the correct water hardness
for 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 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 -
15 °d - German scale) always pro‐
gramme the dishwasher to the higher
value (2.7 mmol/l or 15 °d in this ex‐
ample).
In the event of a fault, it will help the
service technician if you know the hard‐
ness of your local water supply.

Before using for the first time
Before using the appliance for
the first time, you require:
– approx. 1 litre of water,
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than 0.9 mmol/l
(5 °d - German scale) you do not
have to add dishwasher salt. The
prompt to add salt will be switched off
automatically.
– approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt,
– domestic dishwasher detergent,
– rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers.
Dishwasher detergent will dam‐
age the water softener.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with
powder or liquid detergent.
Every dishwasher is tested at the fac‐
tory. There will be residual water in the
appliance from this test. It is not an in‐
dication that it has been used previ‐
ously.
Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation,
as other salts may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the func‐
tioning of the water softener.

Before using for the first time
Adding salt
Before filling the salt reservoir with
dishwasher salt for the first time, you
must fill it with approx. 1 litre of wa‐
ter to enable the salt to dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used,
there is always sufficient water in the
reservoir.
Remove the lower basket and un‐
screw the salt reservoir cap.
Water or saline solution will run out
of the reservoir when the cap is re‐
moved.
It should therefore only be removed
in order to refill the salt reservoir.
Place the funnel provided over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with
salt until the reservoir is full. The salt
reservoir holds approx. 1 kg of salt
depending on the brand used.
Fill the reservoir with approx. 1 litre of
water (first use only).
Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening and then screw
the cap on again firmly.
Immediately after filling the salt reser‐
voir, run the Quick wash programme
with the Short programme option se‐
lected and without any crockery in
the dishwasher, to remove any traces
of salt from the cabinet.

Before using for the first time
Add salt reminder
If you only ever use combination prod‐
ucts in your dishwasher, you can
switch both refill reminders for salt
and rinse aid off if you wish (see "Pro‐
gramme options - Refill reminders").
Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher
salt when the salt indicator light
comes on. (If it comes on during a
programme, wait until the end of the
programme).
If you switch to using detergent that
does not contain salt or rinse aid, it
is important to remember to add salt
and rinse aid and to switch the re‐
minders back on.
Risk of corrosion.
Immediately after filling the salt res‐
ervoir, run the Quick wash pro‐
gramme with the Short programme
option selected and without any
crockery in the dishwasher to re‐
move any traces of salt from the
cabinet.
After the salt reservoir has been filled,
the refill indicator may still be lit up if
the salt concentration has not yet
reached the correct level. It will go out
when the correct concentration is
reached.
The refill reminder will not come on if
you have programmed the dishwasher
for a water hardness below 0.9 mmol/l
(5 °d - German scale).

Before using for the first time
Rinse aid
If you only ever use combination
products containing rinse aid in your
dishwasher, you do not need to add
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.
Adding rinse aid
Rinse aid is poured into the storage res‐
ervoir and the amount set is dispensed
automatically.
Inadvertently filling the rinse aid
reservoir with washing-up liquid or
powder or liquid detergent will dam‐
age the reservoir. Only pour rinse aid
formulated for domestic dishwashers
into the reservoir.
Alternatively, it is possible to use
– Household vinegar with a max. 5%
acid content
Press the button on the lid of the
rinse aid reservoir in the direction of
the arrow until the flap springs open.
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.

You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for
best results.
Press the programme selector button
in, and whilst holding it in switch
the dishwasher on using the but‐
ton.
Keep the programme selector button
pressed in for at least four sec‐

– Make sure that small items cannot
fall through the holders in the bas‐
kets.
Notes
Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.
Small items, e.g. lids, should there‐
fore be placed in the cutlery tray or
cutlery basket (depending on model).
There is no need to rinse items under
running water.
Some foodstuffs may contain natural
dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or
ketchup. Plastic items in the dish‐
washer may discolour if large quanti‐
ties of these foodstuffs find their way
into the dishwasher on the crockery.
The stability of plastic items is not
affected by this discolouration.
Cleaning silver cutlery in the dish‐
washer may also cause plastic items
to discolour.
Do not wash items soiled with
ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or
paint in the dishwasher. These will
damage to the dishwasher.
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in
the baskets, but the following notes
should be observed:
– Do not place crockery and cutlery in‐
side 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.
– Wide based items should 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. If in doubt, test
for free movement by manually rotat‐
ing the spray arms.

Items not suitable for dishwashers:
Aluminium components (e.g.
cooker hood grease filters) must not
be cleaned with caustic alkaline
commercial or industrial cleaning
agents.
These may damage the material, or
in extreme cases, there is a risk of a
severe explosive chemical reaction
(such as an explosive oxyhydrogen
gas reaction).
– 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 dish‐
washer.
– Craft items, antiques, valuable vases
and decorative glassware: such
items are not suitable for dishwash‐
ers.
Tip: When purchasing new crockery
and cutlery, make sure they are dish‐
washer-proof.
– Plastic items which are not heat re‐
sistant: the high temperatures in the
dishwasher may cause them to melt
or lose shape.
Glass care
– Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing. If delicate glass‐
ware is washed in the dishwasher en‐
sure 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.
– Copper, brass, tin and aluminium
items: these may discolour or be‐
come matt.
– 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.
– Purchase glassware which is dish‐
washer safe (e.g. Riedel glassware).
Please note
– Use detergents with glass protective
additives (e.g. Miele CareCollection
tabs).
Silverware previously cleaned with a
silver polish may still be damp or spot‐
ted at the end of a programme, where
water has not run off smoothly. It may
need to be rubbed dry with a soft cloth.
– Visit "http://www.mieleglass‐
care.com/international/en/glasscare/
english" for more information on
glass care.
Silver which has been in contact with
foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions, mayon‐
naise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine
and marinades.

Operation
You can also buy combination products
(see "Programme options, Detergent‐
Agent", if applicable).
Detergent
Only use detergents formulated
for domestic dishwashers. Do not
use washing-up liquid.
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 pro‐
tective additives and enhanced clean‐
ing power, as "5 in 1", "7 in 1", "All in 1"
etc.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various ac‐
tive ingredients, the most important of
which are:
Refer to the manufacturer's packaging
as to whether combination products are
suitable for the water hardness level in
your area.
Please note that the cleaning and dry‐
ing results of combination detergents
can vary greatly.
– Complexing agents to prevent calcifi‐
cation.
– Alkalis to aid removal of dried on soil‐
ing.
– Enzymes to break down starch and
loosen protein.
– Oxygen based bleaching agents to
remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, cof‐
fee, tomato sauce).
For optimum cleaning and drying re‐
sults, use Miele dishwasher detergent
and add Miele salt and Miele rinse aid
separately. See "Optional accesso‐
ries".
Most dishwasher detergents are mildly
alkaline and contain enzymes and oxy‐
gen based bleaching agents.
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 soil‐
ing.
– Tab detergents. These are suitable
for most levels of soiling.

Operation
Detergent dosage
Dishwasher detergents can
cause burning in the nose, mouth
and throat if swallowed, or inhibit
breathing.
Avoid inhalation of powder deter‐
gents and do not ingest dishwasher
detergent. Seek medical attention
immediately if detergent has been
swallowed or inhaled.
Keep detergent out of the reach of
children at all times. Keep children
away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be de‐
tergent residues in the cabinet. Only
add detergent just before starting the
programme and close the door, acti‐
vating the safety lock (if your dish‐
washer is fitted with one).
Follow the dosage recommended by
the manufacturer on the packaging.
Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml de‐
tergent to compartment II, depending
on the level of soiling. With very
heavy soiling you can also add a
small amount of detergent to com‐
partment l.
Tabs may not dissolve completely
when the Quick wash programme (if
available) is used.
Failure to dispense the recommen‐
ded amount of detergent may impair
cleaning results.

The flap is always open at the end of a
programme.
For information
Compartment I holds max. 10 ml,
Compartment II holds max. 50 ml of
detergent.
There are marks in compartment II to
assist with dispensing: 20, 30. The
marks indicate a level of approx. 20 or
30 ml when the door is open in a hori‐
zontal position.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
Mould could build up on the door seal
and the sides of the dishwasher door
as these surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and so not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets.
Check your dishwasher regularly (ap‐
prox. every 4 - 6 months). This way
faults and problems can be avoided.
The external surfaces of the
dishwasher are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolour the ex‐
ternal surfaces.
Wipe the door seal 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 clos‐
ing it.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely self-clean‐
ing, provided that the correct amount of
detergent is always used.
Cleaning the control panel
If, however, there are limescale or
grease deposits in the cabinet, these
can be removed with a special dish‐
washer cleaner (see "Optional accesso‐
ries"). Follow the instructions on the
packaging.
The control panel should only be wi‐
ped with a damp cloth.
Cleaning the reflector panel
The reflector panel for the In-operation
indicator light is situated in the cover‐
plate underneath the worktop.
If you mainly use low temperature pro‐
grammes (below 50 °C), there is a risk
of bacteria and unpleasant odours
building up in the wash cabinet. To pre‐
vent this happening the dishwasher will
automatically increase the temperature
in the final rinse of the selected pro‐
gramme after several programmes us‐
ing low temperatures have been run.
The reflector panel should only be wi‐
ped with a damp cloth or a suitable
cleaning agent designed for use on
plastic.
Clean the filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.

Cleaning and care
To avoid damaging the external sur‐
faces, do not use:
Cleaning the door front
Soiling that is left too long might
become impossible to remove and
could cause the external surfaces to
alter or discolour.
– cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents,
Remove any soiling immediately.
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow‐
der cleaners and cream cleaners,
Clean the front with a clean sponge
and a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid. After cleaning dry
with a soft cloth.
A clean, damp microfibre cloth with‐
out cleaning agent can also be used.
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or spong‐
es which have been previously used
with abrasive cleaning agents,
– melamine eraser blocks,
– sharp metal scrapers.
– wire wool,
– steam cleaning appliances.

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 access‐
ing the circulation system and re-enter‐
ing 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.
Check the condition of the filters reg‐
ularly and clean them if necessary.
Turn the handle anti-clockwise to re‐
lease the filter combination .
Lift the filter combination out of the
dishwasher . Remove any coarse
particles and rinse the filter well un‐
der running water.
Use a nylon brush if necessary.
Make sure that when cleaning
the filters, no coarse soil falls into the
circulation system, causing a block‐
age.

rection of the arrows as shown, and

Cleaning and care
Cleaning the spray arms
Particles of food can get stuck in the
spray arm jets and bearings. The spray
arms should therefore be inspected 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 dish‐
washer is fitted with one).
Push the top spray arm upwards to
engage the inner ratchet. Then un‐
screw the spray arm.
Pull the lower spray arm firmly up‐
wards to remove it.
Push the middle spray arm upwards
to engage the ratchet. Then un‐
screw the spray arm .
Use a pointed object to push food
particles into the spray arm jets.
Rinse thoroughly under running wa‐
ter.
Remove the lower basket.
Replace the spray arms and check
that they rotate freely.

Maintenance
Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw con‐
nection 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.
The housing must not be dipped in
water.
Recommendation
Carefully remove the seal.
If the mains water contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we
recommend fitting a large-area filter in
the connection between the stopcock
and the water inlet hose threaded un‐
ion.
Withdraw the filter using pointed pli‐
ers and rinse clean under running
water.
Replace the filter and seal, making
sure they are sitting correctly.
This filter is available from Miele.
Reconnect the inlet hose to the stop‐
cock, making sure it goes on correct‐
ly and is not cross-threaded.
Cleaning the filter:
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply.
Open the stopcock.
Switch off at the mains socket and
withdraw the plug.
If water leaks out, the inlet hose may
not be connected securely or it may
have been screwed on at an angle.
Close the stopcock.
Unscrew and reconnect the water in‐
let valve correctly.
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").
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.
Carefully replace the non-return
valve.
Ensure that the catch engages
correctly.
Be very careful not to damage
sensitive components when cleaning
the drain pump and the non-return
valve.
Press the catch for the non-return
valve inwards .
Lift out the non-return valve and
rinse well under running water.
Remove all foreign objects from the
non-return valve.

Plumbing
Venting the drainage system
Drainage
If the on-site drain connection is situ‐
ated 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 appliance drainage system is fit‐
ted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.
– The dishwasher is supplied with ap‐
prox. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose with
an internal diameter of 22 mm.
To vent it: Open the dishwasher door
fully.
– The drain hose can be extended us‐
ing 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 ex‐
ceed 1 m.
– If the hose is to be directly fitted to
the drainage outlet on site, use the
hose clip supplied (see installation
plan).
– 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 pro‐
trudes too far into the drain hose, it
will need to be shortened. Otherwise
the drain hose may become blocked.
Pull the lower spray arm firmly up‐
wards to remove it.
Cut off the top of the vent valve in the
wash cabinet.
– The drain hose must not be short‐
ened.
Make sure that there are no
kinks in the hose, and that it is not
squashed or stretched.
After connecting the dishwasher to
the drainage system, check that all
plumbing connections are watertight.
