Proper use

This dishwasher complies with current safety requirements.

Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and

damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the dishwasher,

please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first

time. They contain important information on its safety, installation,

use and maintenance. Keep these instructions in a safe place and

pass them on to any future owner.

 With its short program running times and powerful cleaning

performance, this Miele commercial dishwasher is intended for

commercial use in the following:

– Guest houses

– School and day care centers, Restaurants and catering

– Nursing homes

– Other, similar commercial environments

 This appliance is designed exclusively for use as a "dishwasher"

for cleaning cookware, glassware and cutlery only, as described in

these instructions. Alterations or conversions to the dishwasher, or

using it for purposes other than those for which it is designed, are not

permitted and could be dangerous.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by improper or

incorrect use or operation.

 This commercial dishwasher is intended only for stationary indoor

use.

 The special inserts are to be used for their specific purpose only.

 This commercial dishwasher is not suitable for the cleaning of

medical products or devices.

 Persons who lack physical, sensory or mental abilities, or

experience with the appliance should not use it without supervision or

instruction by a responsible person.

 This dishwasher can only be used on a ship if

– the ship’s hull is longer than 91ft.

– the list of the vessel is not more than2°.

– any external vibration is no more than 150Hz at an amplitude of

1/64".

The safe operation and correct functioning of this dishwasher can

only be guaranteed if the above conditions are met.

 The commercial dishwasher must not be operated on open decks.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper installation

 The installation and operation of this commercial dishwasher in

non-stationary locations (for example, aboard ships) should only be

performed by professional operations or individuals, if they ensure

that the preconditions for safe use of this appliance have been met.

 When installing the commercial dishwasher, ensure it is properly

secured.

Failure to observe the above could cause injuries and damage to the

commercial dishwasher and other equipment or installations.

 The commercial dishwasher must be fastened to the floor using

the BBF80 floor fastening kit.

 Do not install the commercial dishwasher in areas at risk of

explosion or freezing.

 In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the

furniture in the area around the commercial dishwasher should be

designed for commercial use.

Technical safety

 The commercial dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned,

repaired and then maintained by the Miele Service Department or an

authorized Miele Service dealer. Installation, repair and other work by

unqualified persons could be dangerous and Miele will not be held

liable.

 This commercial dishwasher must only be operated by

appropriately trained personnel. They must be instructed and trained

regularly.

 Before using the commercial dishwasher, check it for any

externally visible damage. Under no circumstances should you use it

if it has been damaged. It could be dangerous.

 In the event of a damaged or leaking commercial dishwasher, turn

it off immediately and contact Miele or an authorized Miele Service

dealer.

 Faulty components may only be replaced by genuine Miele original

parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guarantee the safety

standards of the appliance.

 The electrical safety of this commercial dishwasher can only be

guaranteed when it is connected to a correctly installed grounding

conductor system. If in any doubt, please have the electrical

installation tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held

liable for the consequences for the lack or interruption of a grounding

conductor (e.g. electric shock).

 Be sure to follow the installation instructions in this manual and in

the installation diagram.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage,

frequency, and fuse rating) match those of your electrical supply.

 There must be no electrical sockets behind the commercial

dishwasher since the depth of the installation niche may be too small

and there is a danger of overheating if the dishwasher is pushed up

against a plug (see the "Electrical connection" chapter for more

information).

 Do not connect the dishwasher to the electrical supply by a

multiple outlet box or an extension cable since they do not guarantee

the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

 Do not open the commercial dishwasher casing under any

circumstances. Tampering with electrical connections or components

and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause

operational faults.

 The commercial dishwasher must not be used if the connecting

cable is damaged. If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a

special connecting cable available from Miele. For safety reasons, this

may only be performed by the Miele Service Department or an

authorized Miele Service dealer.

 Before maintenance, disconnect the commercial dishwasher from

the electrical supply.

 The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical

components. It must not be dipped in water.

 There are live wires in the water intake hose. Do not shorten the

water intake hose, even if it is too long.

 The built-in waterproof system offers reliable protection against

water damage if the following conditions are met:

– proper installation

– proper maintenance of the dishwasher or exchange of parts in

case of visible damage

– closing of the water valve during longer absences (for example

vacation)

The waterproof system will work even if the dishwasher is turned off.

However, the commercial dishwasher must remain connected to the

electrical supply.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct use

 This commercial dishwasher is designed for operation with water

and detergents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only.

Organic solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used.

This could cause an explosion, property damage due to the

destruction of rubber or plastic, and the resulting leakage of liquids.

 Use detergents formulated for use in commercial dishwashers.

Using unsuitable detergents could damage the dishes and the

commercial dishwasher itself.

 Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the

commercial dishwasher to tip or become damaged.

 After any plumbing work on the water supply, to the dishwasher

will need to be vented. If this is not done, components can be

damaged.

 Please be aware that the dishwasher may be operating at high

temperatures. If the door is opened, there is a danger of burning or

scalding. Dishes, cutlery, baskets, and inserts must be allowed to

cool down before they are unloaded. Any water remaining in

containers could still be very hot. Empty them into the wash cabinet

before taking them out.

 The water in the wash cabinet is NOT safe to drink!

 The pretreatment of items (for example with dishwashing liquid and

other detergents), but also some types of soiling and some

detergents, can cause a build-up of foam in the wash cabinet. Foam

can have an adverse effect on the cleaning result.

 Foam escaping from the wash chamber can cause damage to the

dishwasher. If foam escapes, the program must be cancelled

immediately and the machine must be disconnected from the

electrical supply.

 When using detergents and specialized products, it is essential

that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Detergents must

only be used for the purpose they are designed for and in the

situation specified, to avoid material damage and serious chemical

reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).

 Do not inhale or ingest powder detergent. Dishwasher detergents

contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in

the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Seek

medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or

inhaled.

 Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical detergents may

have on the material of the items being cleaned. Observe the

detergent manufacturer's instructions with regard to storage

conditions, use, and dosage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or

solutions containing chloride to get into the wash cabinet. Similarly

avoid any materials with a corrosive effect.

 Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricants, or paint

in the dishwasher. These substances could damage the dishwasher.

 Do not hose down the dishwasher or its direct vicinity to clean it,

e.g. with a water hose or high-pressure cleaner.

 Ensure that the stainless steel outer casing of the appliance does

not come into contact with solutions or steam containing acid to

avoid any corrosion damage.

 Be careful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and

positioning them in the dishwasher so that you do not hurt yourself or

create a danger for others. Cutlery should be placed in baskets in

such a way that no injuries can occur.

 Remove any coarse food deposits from the items being cleaned

before loading them in the dishwasher.

Children in the vicinity

 Supervise children when they are anywhere near this dishwasher.

Do not let them play with it. There is a danger that children may lock

themselves in the dishwasher.

 Children must not be allowed to operate this dishwasher.

 Keep children away from chemical agents. These contain irritant

and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth,

nose and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Keep children away

from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be

residual chemical agent in the cabinet. Seek medical advice

immediately if a child has swallowed or inhaled chemical agent.

Accessories

 Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with

this dishwasher. Miele will provide you with the article designations of

the accessories.

 Only use Miele baskets and inserts with this dishwasher. Using

baskets and inserts made by other manufacturers, or making

modifications to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning

results, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage

would not be covered by the guarantee.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances contain valuable materials. They

also contain certain substances, compounds and components which

were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the

equipment. Handling these materials improperly by disposing of them

in your household waste can be harmful to your health and the

environment. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance

with regular household waste and follow local regulations on proper

disposal.

Consult with local authorities, dealers or Miele in order to dispose of

and recycle electrical and electronic appliances. Miele assumes no
