IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS APPROPRIATE USE This Commercial Dishwasher complies with all current local and national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and material damage. WARNING: When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: Read the operating instructions carefully before using the Commercial Dishwasher for the first time. They contain important information on the safety, use, and maintenance of the machine.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This dishwasher is intended for use at altitudes of up to 13,000 ft (4,000 m) above sea level. The special inserts in the baskets should only be used for their specific application. This dishwasher can only be used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, if they are supervised while using it or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognize the consequences of incorrect operation.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Proper installation Do not install the machine in an area where a danger of explosion or of freezing temperatures may be present. Be careful when installing the dishwasher. Wear protective gloves to avoid injury on any sharp metal components. To ensure the stability of undercounter dishwashers, these units may only be installed beneath a continuous countertop that is bolted to adjacent cabinetry.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This dishwasher should only be operated by appropriately trained personnel. They should be instructed and trained regularly. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. Before using the dishwasher, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not use a damaged dishwasher. This could be dangerous.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - The door springs must be evenly adjusted 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. The control elements of the dishwasher must not be tampered with. WARNING - Fire hazard! Do not cover or crush the plug of the appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The built-in Waterproof system offers reliable protection against water damage if the following conditions are met: - Installation has been carried out correctly. - The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced in case of noticeable damage. - The shut-off valves have been turned off during longer absences (for example, vacation). The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher is switched off.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Correct use This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and cleaning agents suitable for use in dishwashers only. Organic solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used. This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic components in the dishwasher, and cause liquids to leak out of it. You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Depending on the properties of the flooring and footwear worn on it, liquids can cause a slipping hazard. Keep the floor dry where possible and take care to clean up any liquid spills straight away. Take the necessary precautions when cleaning up hazardous substances and hot liquids. When using detergents and specialized products, it is essential that the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet or onto the casing. Similarly avoid any ferrous materials with a corrosive effect. Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease, or paint in the dishwasher. These materials will cause damage to the dishwasher. Do not clean the dishwasher or its near vicinity with a hose or a pressure washer.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS If the automatic door opening mechanism is active, keep young children away from the area in which the door opens. There is a danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the opening mechanism. Keep children away from process chemicals. These contain ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth or throat, or inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be residual process chemicals in the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Accessories Only use original Miele accessories. Using parts or accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Initial commissioning Basic settings Setting up Miele@home Turning on the dishwasher The message Miele@home will appear on the display. Open the door. Turn the dishwasher on using the sensor button. The welcome screen will appear when the dishwasher is turned on and the welcome melody will sound. For further information about the display functionality, see “Display functions” under “Guide to the appliance”. To set up Miele@home now, confirm by touching OK.
Initial commissioning Setting the time The time is updated automatically if a connection is established with the WiFi network. The display will then change to the screen for setting the time. The current time of day must be set before you can use the timer option. Use the sensor buttons to enter the hour and confirm your entry with OK. Then set the minutes and confirm with OK. Keeping the relevant or sensor button pressed will increase or decrease the time automatically.
Initial commissioning Prompts will then appear in the display. After confirming these prompts with OK, the messages Refill salt and Add rinse aid may appear. Add salt and rinse aid if necessary (see “Reactivation salt” and “Rinse aid” under “Before using for the first time”). Select OK to confirm the messages. The program selected will appear briefly in the display and the appropriate sensor button will be illuminated.
Initial commissioning Availability of the WiFi connection Miele app The Wi-Fi connection shares a frequency range with other appliances (including microwave ovens and remote control toys). This can cause sporadic or even complete connection failures. Therefore, the availability of featured functions cannot be guaranteed. You can connect the dishwasher to the Miele@mobile app. The app is available to download free of ® charge from the Apple App Store or from the Google Play Store™.
Initial commissioning Every dishwasher is tested at the factory. There will be residual water in the machine from this test. It is not an indication that the dishwasher has been used previously. Opening the door In some programs, the door automatically opens slightly to assist the drying process. This function can be deactivated, if preferred (see “AutoOpen” under “Settings”). This dishwasher has a motorized door opener which is activated by knocking on the door front (Knock2open function).
Initial commissioning Door-opening aid If the door will not open when knocked or if there is a power failure, the door can be opened manually with the dooropening aid supplied with the dishwasher. Then use it to pull the door open. Closing the door Push the baskets in. Push the door until it clicks shut. Push the door-opening aid into the gap between the dishwasher front and the neighboring unit door about 5 7/8” (15 cm) below the countertop.
Initial commissioning Reactivation salt Damage caused by using unsuit- 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 dishes and on the inner surfaces of the machine. Tap water with a water hardness level higher than 5.2 gr/gal (5°dH – German scale) must be softened. This occurs automatically in the integrated water softener.
Initial commissioning Filling the salt reservoir Refilling the salt Before filling the salt reservoir for the first time, you must fill it with approx. 2 l of water to enable the salt to dissolve. When the refill reminder Refill salt appears in the display, wait until the end of the program and then refill the salt reservoir. Once the dishwasher has been used once, there is always sufficient water in the salt reservoir. Confirm with OK.
Initial commissioning Rinse aid Rinse aid is necessary to ensure that water does not cling and leave marks on dishes during the drying phase, and helps dishware dry faster after it has been washed. Rinse aid is poured into the container and the amount set is dispensed automatically. Liquid dish soap or detergent can cause damage. Liquid dish soap and detergent can damage the rinse-aid reservoir. Commercial rinse aids are recommended.
Initial commissioning Adding rinse aid Close the lid firmly until you hear it click into place. Otherwise, water can enter the rinse aid reservoir during a program. Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This prevents excess foam developing during the next program. You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for best wash results (see “Rinse aid” under “Settings”). Filling the rinse-aid reservoir Press the yellow button on the lid of the rinse aid reservoir.
Caring for the environment Energy-saving dishwashing This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in its use of water and electricity. You can make the most of your machine by following these tips: - Washing in a dishwasher generally uses less water and energy than washing by hand. - There is no need to pre-rinse items under running water, and this unnecessarily increases water and energy consumption. - Make full use of the basket capacity without overloading the dishwasher.
Caring for the environment EcoFeedback consumption display The “Consumption” function is used for calling up information about the water consumption of your dishwasher (see “Consumption” under “Settings”). The following information can be shown on the display: - an estimate of the consumption before the program sequence - the actual consumption at the end of the program - the total consumption of the dishwasher 1. Estimated consumption 2.
Loading the dishwasher General information Remove coarse food residues from dishes. There is no need to pre-rinse items under running water. Damage can be caused by ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease, or paint. These substances will contaminate the dishwasher and can then no longer be removed. Do not wash items soiled with these substances in the dishwasher.
Loading the dishwasher Wash items not suitable for dishwashers: - Wooden cutlery and dishes or items with wooden parts. These may discolor and fade. The glue used in these items is not dishwasher-safe and wooden handles may come loose after being washed in a dishwasher. - Craft items, antiques, valuable vases, and decorative glassware. Such items are not dishwasher-safe. - Plastic items that are not heat resistant. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.

Cleaning and care USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS To prolong the service life of the dishwasher, maintenance should be carried out at least once a year by Miele Customer Service.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the door and the door seal The door seal and the sides of the dishwasher door are not accessed and cleaned by the spray arm jets. Wipe off any food or drink residues which may have dripped onto the sides and seals of the dishwasher door with a damp cloth on a regular basis to prevent the build-up of mold. Cleaning the control panel The control panel should only be wiped with a damp cloth.
Cleaning and care To avoid damaging the external surfaces, do not use the following: - cleaning agents containing soda, ammonia, acids, or chloride - cleaning agents containing lime scale remover - abrasive cleaning agents, such as scouring powder, scouring liquid, or pumice stones - cleaning agents containing solvents - stainless-steel cleaning agents - dishwasher cleaner - oven cleaner - glass cleaner - hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g.
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 regularly (approx. every 2–4 months). Damage due to soiling entering the circulation system. Without filters, soiling can enter the circulation system and cause a blockage. Do not run a wash program without the lower spray arm or without the filters.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the spray arms Refitting the spray arms Refit the upper and middle spray arms. Refit the lower spray arm and ensure that the filter combination lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet. Use a pointed object to push food particles that are stuck in the spray arm jets into the spray arm. Rinse the spray arm thoroughly under running water. Rotate the screw thread of the lower spray arm clockwise until the arrow in the viewing window points to the lock symbol .
Cleaning and care Checking the filters in the wash cabinet Cleaning the filters The filter combination in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse soil from the suds solution. This prevents soiling getting into the circulation system and re-entering the wash cabinet through the spray arms. Remove the lower spray arm (see “Cleaning the spray arms” under “Cleaning and care”). Damage due to soiling entering Turn off the dishwasher.
Cleaning and care In order to clean the inside of the filter, pull the microfilter on the plastic ring downwards and away from the filter combination. Rinse all of the filters under running water. If necessary, use a soft cleaning brush to remove soiling. Insert the microfilter back into the filter combination. Reinstall the filter combination so that it lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet. Rotate the screw thread clockwise until the arrow in the viewing window points to the lock symbol .
Cleaning and care Cleaning the water-inlet filter A filter is incorporated in the screw connection to protect the water-intake valve. If the filter is soiled, insufficient water flows into the wash cabinet. Risk of electric shock from voltage. The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical valve. The housing must not be dipped in water. Disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply. To do this, turn off at the socket and unplug the machine.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the drain pump If water remains in the wash cabinet after the end of a program, the water has not been pumped away. The drain pump may be blocked by foreign objects. These foreign objects are easy to remove. Disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply. To do this, turn off and unplug the dishwasher. Take the filter combination out of the wash cabinet (see “Cleaning the filters” under “Cleaning and care”).
Cleaning and care Damage due to incorrect cleaning. The components are delicate and can be damaged during cleaning. Take care when cleaning the drain pump. The drain pump (see arrow) is underneath the cover. Risk of injury from glass splinters. It is especially difficult to see glass splinters in the drain pump. Take care when cleaning the drain pump. Carefully remove all foreign objects from the drain pump. Check the drain pump impeller by manually turning it.
