Correct use

9

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 in-

formation on its safety, installation, use and maintenance. Keep these instruc-

tions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.

 This dishwasher with its short programme running times and

powerful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in of-

fice kitchens, clubhouses, small businesses, active kitchens and

other similar commercial environments.

It is also suitable for use in domestic households and in similar resid-

ential environments for example by customers in hotels, motels, bed

and breakfast and other related establishments.

 The commercial dishwasher is subsequently referred to as a dish-

washer in these operating instructions.

Glasses, cutlery and crockery are referred to generally as crockery

when not more specifically defined.

 This dishwasher is not intended for continuous use.

 This dishwasher is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical

products or devices.

 This machine is designed exclusively for use as a “dishwasher” for

cleaning crockery, glassware and cutlery as described in these in-

structions. Any other use, conversions and modification are not per-

mitted and could be dangerous.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or

improper use or operation.

 This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.

 The special inserts should only be used for their specific applica-

tion.

Correct use

10

 This dishwasher can only be used by people with reduced phys-

ical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or know-

ledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how

to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the con-

sequences of incorrect operation.

 The dishwasher is equipped with a special lamp to cope with par-

ticular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance,

abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must only be

used for the purpose for which it is intended. It is not suitable for

room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele au-

thorised person or by Miele Service.

Warning and Safety instructions

11

Correct installation

 Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of

explosion or freezing conditions.

 Take care, both before and during installation of the dish-

washer, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger of in-

jury. Wear protective gloves.

 To ensure stability a built-under dishwasher must only be installed

beneath a continuous worktop that is bolted to the adjacent cabin-

etry.

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

niture in the area around the dishwasher should be designed for

commercial use.

 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 dishwasher must only be operated with prop-

erly adjusted door springs.

Technical safety

 This dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired

and maintained by Miele Professional Service or a suitably qualified

service technician. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified

persons could be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for unau-

thorised work.

 This dishwasher must only be operated by appropriately trained

personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.

 Before using the dishwasher, check it for any externally visible

damage. Do not use a damaged dishwasher. This could be danger-

ous.

Warning and Safety instructions

12

 In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the

mains immediately and call Miele Professional Service or a suitably

qualified service technician.

 Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-

ginal spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guaran-

tee the correct functioning and safety of the appliance.

 The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed when

correctly earthed. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installa-

tion tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for

the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric

shock).

 Please follow the advice on installation in these instructions and

the separate Installation diagram.

 Before connecting the appliance, ensure that the connection data

on the data plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rating) match the

mains electrical supply.

 There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher.

Danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be

pushed up against a plug. See “Electrical connection”.

 Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply via

a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the

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

 Warning. Do not open the casing of the dishwasher. Any contact

with live connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical

components of the dishwasher will endanger your safety and may

lead to machine malfunctions.

 The dishwasher must not be used if the electrical connection

cable is damaged. A damaged connection cable may only be re-

placed with a specific connection cable of the same type (available

from Miele Service). For safety reasons, such replacement may only

be carried out by a qualified technician or the Miele Service.

Warning and Safety instructions

13

 The dishwasher must be disconnected from the mains electricity

supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.

 The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical

components. It must not be dipped in water.

 There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not shorten

the water inlet hose, even if it is too long.

 The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water

damage, provided the following conditions are met:

– installation has been carried out correctly,

– the dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced

where it can be seen that this is necessary,

– the stopcock has been turned off during longer periods of inactiv-

ity (e.g. whilst on holiday).

The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher is

switched off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to

the electricity supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

14

Correct use

 This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and cleaning

agents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Organic

solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used in it.

This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic compon-

ents in the dishwasher and cause liquids to leak out of it.

 Only use cleaning agents formulated for use in commercial dish-

washers. Unsuitable cleaning agents could adversely affect compon-

ents of the dishwasher or the items being cleaned.

 You could injure yourself on the open dishwasher door or trip over

it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.

 Do not sit, stand or lean on the opened door. This would tip or

damage the dishwasher.

 After any plumbing work the water pipework 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. When the door is opened there is a danger of burning

or scalding. Crockery, cutlery, baskets and inserts must be allowed

to cool down before they are unloaded. Any water remaining in con-

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

fore taking them out.

 The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.

 Pre-treating items (for example with washing-up liquid and other

cleaning agents) as well as some types of soiling and some cleaning

agents 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 cabinet can cause damage to the

dishwasher. If foam escapes the programme must be cancelled im-

mediately and the machine must be disconnected from the mains

electrical supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

15

 When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is essen-

tial that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Cleaning

agents must only be used for the purpose they are designed for and

in the situation specified, to avoid such dangers as serious chemical

reactions and material damage (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).

 Do not inhale or ingest powder cleaning agent. Dishwasher clean-

ing agents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause

burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breath-

ing. Seek medical attention immediately if cleaning agent has been

swallowed or inhaled.

 Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical cleaning

agents may have on the material of the items being cleaned. Ob-

serve the cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions with regard to

storage conditions, use and dosage.

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

or solutions containing chlorides or metals which are not rust-proof

to get into the wash cabinet.

 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 near vicinity with a hose or a pres-

sure washer.

 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 posi-

tioning them in the dishwasher that you do not hurt yourself or cre-

ate a danger for others. Sharp knives, forks, etc. should be placed in

baskets with the pointed ends facing downwards.

 Remove any coarse food deposits and empty out any containers

or utensils before loading them in the dishwasher.

Warning and Safety instructions

16

Safety with children

 Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher.

Never allow children to play with the machine. There is a danger that

children might shut themselves in the dishwasher.

 Children under eight years of age must be kept away from the

dishwasher unless they are constantly supervised.

 Children aged eight and older may only use the dishwasher

without supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe

manner. Children must be able to recognise and understand the po-

tential risks of improper use.

 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 chemical agents. These contain irritant

and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, or

inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the

door is open. There could still be residual chemical agent in the

wash cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swal-

lowed or inhaled chemical agent.

Accessories

 Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by

Miele. If other parts are used, warranty, performance and product li-

ability claims will be invalidated.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance

with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Caring for the environment

17

Disposal of the packing mater-

ial

The packaging is designed to protect

the appliance from damage during

transportation. The packaging materials

used are selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for disposal

and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the

use of raw materials in the manufactur-

ing process and also reduces the

amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appli-

ance

Electrical and electronic appliances of-

ten contain valuable materials. They

also contain specific materials, com-

pounds and components, which were

essential for their correct function and

safety. These could be hazardous to hu-

man health and to the environment if

disposed of with your domestic waste

or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,

therefore, dispose of your old appliance

with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local com-

munity waste collection / recycling

centre for electrical and electronic ap-

pliances, or contact your dealer or

Miele for advice. You are also respons-

ible (by law, depending on country) for

deleting any personal data that may be

stored on the appliance being disposed

of. Please ensure that your old appli-

ance poses no risk to children while be-

ing stored prior to disposal.

Caring for the environment

18

Economical dishwashing

This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-

nomical in its use of water and electri-

city.

You can make the most of your ma-

chine by following these tips:

– For most economical dishwashing,

make full use of the baskets without

overloading the dishwasher. This res-

ults in the most economical dish-

washing.

– Choose the programme to suit the

type of crockery being washed and

the degree of soiling.

– Select the ECO programme for en-

ergy-saving dishwashing. This pro-

gramme is the most efficient in terms

of its combined energy and water

consumption for cleaning dishes with

a normal level of soiling.

– Follow the detergent manufacturer's

recommendations on detergent

dosage.

– When using powder or liquid deter-

gent you can use

1

/

less detergent if

baskets are only half full.
