IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The following points should be

observed to assist in maintaining

quality standards for critical labware

and to avoid damage to the loads

being cleaned.

with water and the recommended

cleaning agents. Organic solvents must

not be used in the machine as there is

the danger, under certain

circumstances, of explosion and

damage to rubber and synthetic

materials. Follow the dosage

For this type of cleaning, the program

must not be interrupted until completion. In

other words, the On/Off Button must not be

used. Interruptions should also be avoided

for all other programs, such as during

performance testing, because this can

negatively affect the cleaning and rinsing

results. After any interruption, the program

should be restarted from the beginning.

Water softener

Before using the machine for the first

time, the water softener should be

programmed. The water needs to be

softened to avoid calcium deposits on

the items being cleaned and in the

machine itself.

Setting the water softener

^ Use the On/Off button to switch off

the machine.

^ Turn the program selector to f.

^ Simultaneously press and hold the

"Display" ß and "Start" 6 buttons,

while turning the machine on with the

On/Off button.

If the water supply is harder or softer

than the factory setting (including

below 4 gr/gal or 70 ppm), the setting

will need to be changed. See "Setting

the water softener".

The current program status P....

will appear in the display, and the

"Fill/Drain" indicator will come on.

– In order to function properly, the

water softener requires a supply of

reactivation salt.

^ Press the "Drying" 0 button once.

E01 will appear in the display.

– The cleaner must be correctly

programmed to match the hardness

of the tap water supply.

^ Turn the program selector one switch

position clockwise (to 1 o'clock).

– Your local water authority can

provide information about the

hardness of the tap water in your

area.

The number 19 will appear in the

display (this indicates the factory

setting in gr/gal).

^ Press and hold the "Display" ß

button until the required value

appears in the display.

If the water hardness is known to

fluctuate, always program for the

highest value.

Please refer to the "Settings" table for

detailed water hardness tables (water

hardness in gr/gal and ppm).

The built-in water softener can be

programmed at settings from

1 - 60 gr/gal or 20 - 1080 ppm.

Once the 60 setting has been reached,

the counter begins again from 0.

It is useful to make a note of your water

hardness so that you can provide the

service technician with this information

in the event of any service calls.

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

Miele Technical Service.

^ Place the funnel provided in place.

The salt reservoir holds approximately

2.5 kg salt.

^ Carefully fill the reservoir with the

reactivation salt.

Some displaced water will run out - this

is normal.

,^{Inadvertently filling the salt}

reservoir with detergent will damage

the water softener.

^ Wipe any residual salt off the screw

threads of the reservoir.

Before filling the reservoir, make

sure that you are using reactivation

salt.

^ Screw the cap on securely.

^ Immediately after this step, start the

"Rinse" program, to remove any

traces of salt from the inside of the

machine.

^ Remove the bottom basket from the

machine.

^ Unscrew the salt reservoir cap.

Note: There may be a delay of a few

minutes before the "Rinse" program

starts due to the reactivation of the

water softener.

Before filling the salt reservoir for the

first time fill the reservoir with

approximately 2.5 liters of water, so

that the salt can dissolve properly.

Once the washer has been

operated, there will always be

enough water in the reservoir.

Rinse Aid

Adding rinse aid

^ Open the washer door.

Rinse aid is not used in laboratory

glassware cleaning applications.

If rinse aid is required, the rinse aid

dosage must be activated with

assistance from Miele Technical

Service.

Rinse aid (e.g., MieleClear) is filled in

the storage container, and the selected

dose is then dispensed automatically.

The rinse aid reservoir holds

approximately 180 ml.

^ Unscrew the reservoir cap.

,^{Inadvertently filling the rinse aid}

reservoir with detergent will damage

the machine. Be sure only to use

rinse aid in the rinse aid reservoir.

^ Pour enough rinse aid into the

reservoir so that the level indicator

(see arrow) is dark. Use a funnel if

necessary.

^ Replace and tighten the reservoir

cap.

^ Wipe up any spilled rinse aid, to

prevent over sudsing during the next

wash cycle.

Setting the rinse aid dosage

The dosage selector has settings from

1 to 6 (1 - 6 ml). The factory setting is at

3 (3 ml).

^ Rinse aid does not need to be refilled

until the "Rinse aid" indicator light

comes on in the display.

If the glassware shows spots after

washing,

^ adjust to a higher setting.

If the glassware shows smearing or

cloudy streaks after washing,

^ adjust to a lower setting.

Neutralizing agent

Adding neutralizer

^ Open the door of the storage cabinet

that houses the neutralizer and

detergent dispensers.

Neutralizer has an acidic pH, and

works by neutralizing any traces of

(alkaline) cleaner from the surface of

the glassware.

When a mild alkaline detergent is

used for washing, select a

neutralizer that contains phosphoric

acid.

The neutralizer is automatically

dispensed during the second rinse

after the main wash cycle. To function

properly, the neutralizer container must

be filled and cleared of air (primed).

For specific instructions see

"Programming functions".

^ Take out the (red) neutralizer

container and refill it or replace it with

a filled container.

Note: the program "Inorganica"

dispenses neutralizer after the

pre-wash.

^ Insert the siphon tube into the

container opening and screw it into

place. Make sure to observe the

color coding.

container before it becomes

completely empty.

Detergent

Adding detergent

Using powdered detergent

,^{Use only cleaning agents}

formulated for this machine. Do not

use detergents formulated for

household dishwashers.

When the following upper baskets

are used, powdered detergent can

be loaded inside the door, but only

for programs without a pre-wash

cycle. In all other cases, use liquid

detergent (DOS 1):

It is recommended that mildly alkaline

liquid detergents be dispensed via the

optional DOS module.

O 187

O 190/1.

Note

Before starting the program, load the

powdered detergent into the

compartment (except for the programs

"Rinse" and "Drain").

As a separate option, this machine can

also be fitted with a dispenser pump for

automatic liquid detergent dispensing

(DOS-Module G 60). This is connected

externally. Contact Miele for details.

The optional DOS Module G 60 is

supplied with its own installation and

connection instructions.

See "Programming functions" for

information on priming the dispensing

system and setting the dosage.

Note also that the program

"Organica" can only be used with

liquid detergents.

^ Press the button on the dispenser

cover. The cover will pop open.

Spring adapter for the water

connection

Adjusting the upper basket

The upper basket can be adjusted

above and below the middle position,

by 2 cm.

The spring adapter for the water

connection must be properly engaged

when a basket or the injector wagon is

inserted into the machine. It must be

4 - 5 mm higher than the water inlet in

the machine.

Depending on the height selected and

which inserts are used, labware of

various heights can be arranged in the

baskets.

If this is not the case, the adapter

needs to be adjusted as follows:

To adjust the upper basket:

^ Pull the upper basket out as far as it

will go, lift it up off the runners and

remove.

^ Use a wrench to unscrew the roller

bearings on either side of the basket,

then reposition as required.

^ Loosen the locking ring a.

^ Move the adapter up to the proper

height b.

^ Tighten the locking ring c.
