liquid cleaning agents or additives.

Some of these products contain

corrosive and irritating substances.

NEVER use organic solvents since

there is a risk of explosion.

When using cleaning agents and

special-purpose products, comply

strictly with the instructions of the

respective manufacturer. In order to

avoid possible chemical reactions

(such as explosive hydrogen gas

reactions), use cleaning agents only for

the applications intended by the

manufacturer.

ALWAYS observe the applicable safety

regulations. Use safety glasses

and gloves. Always follow the

manufacturer's safety

recommendations when using chemical

additives.

The commercial dishwasher is

designed only for operation with water

and additive cleaning agents. Organic

solvents must NOT be used in the

appliance, as there is the danger of

explosion and/or damage.

The water in the wash cabinet is

NOT safe to drink.

Avoid inhaling powdered cleaning

agents.

If detergents are swallowed, this can

result in chemical burns to the mouth

and throat or even suffocation.

(Note: Although many organic solvents

do not involve a danger of explosion,

they may still cause other problems,

such as the destruction of rubber and

plastics.)

Certain pre-treatments (for example,

that contain detergents), as well as,

certain contaminants and some

dishwashing liquids, can generate

foam. Foam can adversely affect the

cleaning performance.

For critical applications, where very

high processing-quality requirements

have to be met, it is strongly

recommended that all process-related

factors (cleaning agents, water quality,

etc.) be discussed in advance with

Miele's Application Technology.

Water softener

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 cookware and in the

dishwasher.

The dishwasher is programmed at

the factory for a water hardness level

of 20 gr/gal (19 °d).

hardness of your water, continue with

Water softener

Filling the salt reservoir

Only special, coarse-grained

reactivation salt* should be used in

this machine.

*Available from Miele. Please see

back page for more information.

Do not use other types of salt, e.g. table

salt, agricultural or gritting salt. These

could contain components which are

insoluble in water and could damage

the water softener. If in doubt consult

the Miele Professional Department.

^ Place the supplied funnel over the

salt reservoir.

The salt reservoir holds about 2 kg of

salt.

^ Carefully fill with reactivation salt.

Displaced water will run out as it is

being filled.

the water softener.

Before filling, make sure that you are

using reactivation salt.

^ Add rinse aid until it is visible on the

surface of the filter in the opening.

The rinse aid reservoir holds approx.

130 ml.

Use

Loading the machine

– Small items should be placed on the

cup racks in the upper basket. Do

not obscure them with larger items

below, e.g. place bowls on the rack

above the cups so that water

reaches all items.

Removing excess soils

^ Scrape food from dishes before

placing them in the dishwasher.

Inadequate pre-cleaning can clog

the filters and interrupt the wash

program.

– Do not place very tall items in the

front right hand area of the lower

basket as these would prevent the

detergent dispenser lid from

opening.

Important

– Select baskets and inserts which are

appropriate for the application.

– Cutlery can be placed in any order in

the cutlery holders however, for the

best cleaning and drying results,

place the cutlery in the inserts with

the handles down.

– Load items so that water can reach

all surfaces.

– Do not place dishes or cutlery inside

other pieces.

,^{Be careful when sorting items}

with sharp pointed ends. Position

them in the machine so that you do

not hurt yourself or create a danger

for others. Sharp knives, forks, etc.

should be placed in baskets with the

pointed ends facing downwards.

– Hollow items such as cups, glasses,

pots, etc. should be placed upside

down in the respective inserts.

Hollow vessels should be inverted

and placed in the correct inserts.

– Concave based items such as mugs

or bowls, should be placed at an

angle so that water does not pool.

– To ensure good water coverage, tall,

narrow and hollow items should be

placed in the center of the baskets

rather than in the corners. Do not

obscure them with larger items

below.

– The spray arms must not be blocked

by items that are too tall or hang

through the baskets. Check

clearance by manually rotating the

spray arms.

Use

Items not recommended for

dishwashing

We recommend

– When purchasing cookware,

glassware and cutlery, make sure

they are dishwasher-safe.

– Cutlery with wooden or bone

handles.

– Wash particularly delicate glassware

by hand.

– Wooden or plastic cutting boards.

– Plastic items that are not heat

resistant.

Please note

– Glued items, e.g. old knives with

handles which have been glued on.

Silverware previously cleaned with a

silver polish may still be damp or

spotted at the end of a program, where

water has not run off smoothly. Dry with

a soft cloth.

– Hand-made craft items, antiques,

valuable vases and decorative

glassware.

Silver treated in a silver immersion dip

is usually dry at the end of a program

but may tarnish.

– Copper, brass, tin and aluminum

items may discolor or become matt.

– Colors painted over a glaze may

fade after a number of washes.

Silver which has been in contact with

foods containing sulphur may discolor.

These include egg yolk, onions,

mayonnaise, mustard, fish and

marinades.

– Clouding may occur on glasses after

frequent washing. Do not wash

delicate glassware or glassware

containing lead crystal in a

dishwasher.

,^{Aluminum 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

Water inlet

– The machine is supplied to be

connected to a standard cold or hot

water supply at a maximum

temperature of 60 °C.

,^{Water in the machine must not}

be used as drinking water.

– A water valve with ³/₄" male hose

thread is to be provided on site. It

should be easily accessible so the

water supply can be turned off when

the machine is not in use.

– The machine must be connected to

the water supply in accordance with

local and national regulations.

– The water supply must meet or

surpass all applicable tap water

codes.

– The inlet hose is 1.7 m long, with a

2 cm female hose thread. A 1.5 m

extension hose is available (flexible

metal hose, 2.03 psi pressure). The

water inlet filters in the threads

must not be removed.

High iron content can lead to rust

formation in the appliance and on the

items washed.

If the chloride content in the water

supply is above 100mg/l, the risk of

corrosion is greatly increased.

– The washer is constructed so it may

be connected to a water supply

without an extra non-return valve,

unless required by code.

– Water in certain regions shows

precipitations. In this case the

machine must only be used with a

water softener unit.

– The water pressure (flow rate) must

be a minimum of 7.25 psi.

If the water pressure (flow rate) is

below 29 psi, the filling time is

automatically extended.

,^{The inlet hose must not be}

shortened or damaged in any way

(see illustration).

The max. permitted static pressure is

Drainage

– The flexible drain hose is 4’ 7" (1.4 m)

long and has an internal diameter of

⁷/₈" (22 mm). Do not cut the drain

hose.

– The drain hose is equipped with a

non-return valve which prevents

waste water from flowing back into

the machine.

Hose clamps are supplied for

securing it into position.

– The machine should preferably be

connected to a separate drainage

system onsite.

– A longer drain hose (up to 13 ft.

[4 m] long) is available from Miele.

If separate drainage is not available

contact your Miele application

specialist for advice.

– The drainage system must not

exceed 13 ft. (4 meters).

– See the supplied installation

diagram.

The onsite drain connection point

should be located between 1 ft.

(0.3 m) and 3’ 3". (1 m) above the

lower edge of the machine.

If it is lower than 1 ft. (0.3 m), bend

the hose in a curve to a height of at

least 1 ft. (0.3 m).

The drainage system must be able to

take a minimum drainage flow of
