Proper use

This commercial dishwasher complies with current safety require‐

men

ts. 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.

 W

ith its short program running times and powerful cleaning per‐

formance, this Miele commercial dishwasher is intended for commer‐

cial 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 incor‐

rect use or operation.

 This co

mmercial dishwasher is intended only for stationary indoor

use.

 The special

inserts are to be used for their specific purpose only.

 This co

mmercial dishwasher is not suitable for the cleaning of

medical products or devices.

 P

ersons who lack physical, sensory or mental abilities, or experi‐

ence with the appliance should not use it without supervision or in‐

struction by a responsible person.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

7

Proper installation

 Do not insta

ll the commercial dishwasher in areas at risk of explo‐

sion or freezing.

 T

o ensure the stability of undercounter commercial dishwashers,

they must only be installed beneath a continuous countertop that is

bolted to the adjacent cabinetry.

 In or

der to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the furni‐

ture in the area around the commercial dishwasher should be de‐

signed for commercial use.

Technical safety

 The co

mmercial 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 li‐

able.

 This co

mmercial dishwasher must only be operated by appropri‐

ately trained personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.

 Befor

e using the commercial dishwasher, check it for any external‐

ly visible damage. Under no circumstances should you use it if it has

been damaged. It could be dangerous.

 In the event of a d

amaged or leaking commercial dishwasher, turn

it off immediately and contact Miele or an authorized Miele Service

dealer.

 F

aulty 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 ele

ctrical 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 installa‐

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

the consequences for the lack or interruption of a grounding conduc‐

tor (e.g. electric shock).

 Be sur

e to follow the installation instructions in this manual and in

the installation diagram.

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

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

 Ther

e must be no electrical sockets behind the commercial dish‐

washer 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 infor‐

mation).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

8

 Do not con

nect the dishwasher to the electrical supply by a multi‐

ple 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 co

mmercial dishwasher casing under any circum‐

stances. Tampering with electrical connections or components and

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

erational faults.

 The co

mmercial 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 au‐

thorized Miele Service dealer.

 Before maintenance, disconnect the commercial dishwasher from

the electrical supply.

 The plastic ho

using of the water connection contains electrical

components. It must not be dipped in water.

 There are live wires in the water inlet hose. Do not shorten the wa‐

ter inlet 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 va‐

cation)

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

9

Proper use

 This co

mmercial dishwasher is designed for operation with water

and detergents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Or‐

ganic solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used.

This could cause an explosion, property damage due to the destruc‐

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

 Use det

ergents formulated for use in commercial dishwashers. Us‐

ing unsuitable detergents could damage the dishes and the commer‐

cial dishwasher itself.

 Do not sit or lea

n on the opened door. This could cause the com‐

mercial dishwasher to tip or become damaged.

 Aft

er any plumbing work on the water supply, to the dishwasher

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

aged.

 Please be awar

e 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 contain‐

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

taking them out.

 The wat

er in the wash cabinet is NOT safe to drink!

 The pr

etreatment of items (for example with dishwashing liquid and

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

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

have an adverse effect on the cleaning result.

 F

oam escaping from the wash cabinet can cause damage to the

dishwasher. If foam escapes, the program must be cancelled immedi‐

ately.

 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 situa‐

tion specified, to avoid material damage and serious chemical reac‐

tions (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 in‐

haled.

 Miele

cannot be held liable for any effect chemical detergents may

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

gent manufacturer's instructions with regard to storage conditions,

use, and dosage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

10

 T

o 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 it

ems soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricants, or paint

in the dishwasher. These substances could damage the dishwasher.

 Do not ho

se down the dishwasher or its direct vicinity to clean it,

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

 Ensur

e 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 car

eful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and posi‐

tioning 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 co

arse food deposits from the items being cleaned

before loading them in the dishwasher.

Children in the vicinity

 Super

vise 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.

 K

eep 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 re‐

sidual chemical agent in the cabinet. Seek medical advice immediate‐

ly if a child has swallowed or inhaled chemical agent.

Accessories

 Only use genui

ne 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 modifi‐

cations to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning re‐

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

would not be covered by the guarantee.

Caring for the environment

14

Disposal of packaging material

The packaging is designed to protect the dishwasher from damage

during tr

ansportation. The packaging materials used are selected

from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and

should be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely

and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!

Disposal of your old appliance

Old electrical and electronic appliances often still contain valuable

ma

terials. However, they also contain harmful substances that were

essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment.

Handling these materials improperly or 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.

Instead, use your local community waste collection and recycling

cen

ter to dispose of your old electric and electronic appliances. If

necessary, ask your dealer for more information.

Ensure the appliance presents no danger to children while being stor‐

ed for disposal.
