Operation Manual

A damaged appliance is dan-
gerous. Switch off at the mains and
call your Miele supplier or the Miele Ser-
vice Department.
With the “Waterproof system” the
plastic housing of the water inlet
connection contains an electrical com-
ponent. The housing must therefore not
be dipped in water.
Never cut the water inlet hose,
even if it is too long. There are live
wires in this hose.
For safety reasons do not operate
this appliance on an extension
cable. (Danger of overheating).
Daily use
Do not use solvents in the dish-
washer. Danger of explosion.
Water in the dishwasher must not
be used as drinking water.
Avoid inhalation of powder deter-
gents. Dishwasher detergents con-
tain irritant or corrosive ingredients. They
can cause burning in the mouth and
throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Consult a doctor immediately if detergent
has been swallowed or inhaled.
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.
In an appliance with a cutlery bas-
ket (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 cutlery with sharp points
with the handles upwards.
Only use detergents formulated for
domestic dishwashers. Do not use
washing-up liquid.
Only use rinse aid formulated for
domestic dishwashers.
Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation, as
other salts may contain insoluble addi-
tives which can impair the functioning
of the softener.
Plastic items which cannot with-
stand 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.
