it because the appliance was not set correctly for the
hardness of the local water supply.
 Set the correct water hardness level for your water
supply (see “Settings”).
 Descale the appliance (see “Cleaning and care” –
”Descaling”).
 If the water hardness level was in fact set correctly
or the problem occurs again, contact Miele Ser-
vice.
