This appliance conforms to 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 appliance, please
read these instructions carefully
before using it for the first time. They
contain important information on its
safety, use and maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any
future owner.
Correct application
~
This dishwasher is intended
exclusively for cleaning domestic
crockery and cutlery in a domestic
household. Using it for purposes other
than those for which it was designed,
as well as any alterations or
conversions to the appliance, would be
unauthorised and could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for damage resulting from improper or
incorrect use of the appliance.
~
This dishwasher is not intended for
use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they
are supervised whilst using it or they
have been shown how to use it
correctly by a person responsible for
their safety.
Safety with children
~
This appliance is not a toy! To avoid
the risk of injury, keep children well
away and do not allow them to play in
or around the dishwasher, or to use the
controls. They will not understand the
potential dangers posed by it. They
should be supervised whenever you
are working in the kitchen. There is a
danger that children playing might shut
themselves in the dishwasher.
~
Older children may only use the
dishwasher when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and
they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
~
Keep children away from
detergents. Dishwasher detergents
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 detergent residues in the cabinet.
Consult a doctor immediately if your
child has swallowed or inhaled
detergent.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
Technical safety
~
Before setting up the appliance,
check it for any externally visible
damage. Under no circumstances
should you use a damaged appliance.
A damaged appliance could be
dangerous.
~
The dishwasher must only be
plugged into the electricity supply via a
suitable switched socket. The electrical
socket must be easily accessible after
the dishwasher has been installed so
that it can be disconnected from the
electricity supply at any time. (See
"Electrical connection").
~
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.
~
The dishwasher must not be
installed under a hob. The high radiant
temperatures which are sometimes
generated by a hob could damage the
dishwasher. For the same reason it
should not be installed next to open
fires or other appliances which give off
heat, such as heaters etc.
~
Do not connect the dishwasher to
the mains supply until it has been fully
installed.
~
Before connecting the appliance,
check that the connection data on the
data plate (voltage and connected
load) match the mains electricity
supply. If in any doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system. It is
most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly
tested and where there is any doubt the
electrical system in the house should
be checked by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
Warning and Safety instructions
8
~
This appliance may only be installed
in mobile installations such as ships if a
risk assessment of the installation has
been carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
~
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. The housing must not be
dipped in water.
~
There are live wires in the water inlet
hose. Never cut 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:
The dishwasher is correctly installed
and plumbed in.
The dishwasher is properly
maintained and parts are replaced
where necessary.
The stopcock has been turned off
when the appliance is not used for a
longer period of time (e.g. during
holidays).
The Waterproof system will work even if
the appliance is switched off. However,
the appliance must remain connected
to the electricity supply.
~
A damaged appliance could be
dangerous. If the dishwasher gets
damaged, switch it off at the mains and
call your Miele Dealer or the Miele
Service Department.
~
Unauthorised repairs could result in
unforeseen dangers for the user, for
which Miele cannot accept liability.
Repairs should only be undertaken by a
Miele approved service technician.
~
Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
spare parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
~
Always disconnect the dishwasher
from the electrical supply for
maintenance work (switch off at the wall
socket and remove the plug).
~
If the connection cable is damaged
it must be replaced with a Miele cable
by a Miele approved service technician
only.
~
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be

Warning and Safety instructions
9
Installation
~
The dishwasher must be installed
and connected in compliance with the
installation diagram supplied.
~
The dishwasher must be correctly
aligned to ensure problem-free
operation.
~
In order to ensure stability,
built-under and integrated dishwashers
must only be installed under a
continuous worktop which is secured to
adjacent cabinetry.
~
If you want to convert your
freestanding dishwasher to a
built-under ("U") model, you will need to
order the appropriate conversion kit. If
you remove the existing plinth, you
must replace it with a U-model plinth.
This is necessary to avoid the risk of
injury caused by protruding metal
parts.
Correct use
~
Do not use solvents in the
dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
~
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher
detergent. Dishwasher detergents
contain irritant or corrosive ingredients
which can cause burning in the nose,
mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit
breathing. Consult a doctor immediate
-
ly if detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled.
~
Avoid leaving the door open
unnecessarily, as you could trip over it.
~
Do not sit or lean on the opened
door. This could cause the dishwasher
to tip and be damaged, and you could
get injured.
~
Only use detergent and rinse aid
formulated for domestic dishwashers.
Do not use washing-up liquid.
~
Do not use commercial or industrial
detergents as these may cause
damage, and there is a risk of severe
chemical reaction.
~
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with
powder or liquid detergent. This will
cause serious damage to the reservoir.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
~
Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir
with powder or liquid dishwasher
detergent will damage the water
softener. Make sure you have picked
up the correct packet of dishwasher
salt before filling the salt reservoir!
~
Please only use special coarse
grained dishwasher salt for reactivation,
as other salts may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the
functioning of the softener.
~
In an appliance with a cutlery basket
(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 knives and forks etc.
with the handles upwards.
~
Plastic items which cannot withstand
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.
~
On models with "Delay start", make
sure that the dispenser is dry before
adding detergent. Wipe dry if
necessary. Detergent will clog if poured
into a damp dispenser and may not be
thoroughly dispersed.
Accessories
~
Only use genuine Miele spare parts
and accessories with this appliance. If
spare parts or accessories from other
manufacturers are used, this will
invalidate the guarantee, and Miele
cannot accept liability.
Disposal of your old
dishwasher
~
Make the door lock inoperative so
that children cannot accidentally shut
themselves in. Make appropriate
arrangements for the disposal of the
appliance.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
The packaging consists of the following
materials:
Outer packaging:
Corrugated cardboard made from up
to 100% recyclable material,
or: Polyethylene (PE) shrink wrap
Polyproplylene (PP) strapping
Inner packaging:
Chlorine and fluorine free expanded
polystyrene (EPS)
Base, lid frame and support battens
made from untreated natural wood
from renewable forests.
Polyethylene (PE) protective wrap
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
recycled.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your Dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in its use of water and
electricity. You can make the most of
your appliance by following these tips:
^
If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be
connected to a hot water supply for
further economies. If the water is
heated by solar panels, for example,
this would be energy efficient.
However, if your water is heated by
electricity we would recommend
connection to cold water.
^ For most economical dishwashing,
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^ Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.
^ Select the Energy save programme
for energy-saving dishwashing.
^
Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
^
When using powder or liquid
detergent, you can use
1
/
3
less
detergent if baskets are only half full.
Caring for the environment
13
To open the door
^ Pull the handle.
If the door is opened during operation
all functions are automatically
interrupted.
To close the door
^
Push the baskets right in.
^
Then lift the door upwards and push
until it clicks into position.
Before using for the first time
14
Water softener
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 crockery and in the
dishwasher.
Mains water with a hardness level
higher than 0.7 mmol/l (4 °d – German
scale) needs to be softened. This takes
place automatically in the integrated
water softener.
The water softener requires
dishwasher salt.
The dishwasher must be
programmed for the water hardness
in your area.
Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.
Where the water hardness fluctuates
e.g. between 6.7 - 9.0 mmol/l (37 -
50 °d German scale) always
programme the dishwasher to the
higher value (9.0 mmol/l in this
example).
In the event of a fault, it will help the
service technician if you know the
hardness of your local water supply.
^
Enter the water hardness below:
mmol/l or °d
The dishwasher is programmed at
the factory for a water hardness level
of 2.7 mmol/l (15 °d).
If this setting corresponds to the
hardness of your water you do not need
to do anything more.
If your water is harder or softer, you will
need to programme the water hardness
level. See following section.
Before using for the first time
15
To programme the water hardness
level
Each time a button is pressed, one of
the indicator lights will flash and light
up in the control panel. However, only
the indicator lights mentioned in the
following programming process stages
are significant.
The programming procedure can be
cancelled at any time by pressing the
Off button V. The procedure can
then be re-started from the beginning
again.
^ Switch the dishwasher off using the
Off button V.
^ Press the programme selector button
in, and whilst holding it in switch
the dishwasher on using the On
button U.
Keep the programme selector button
pressed in until the lower right hand
programme indicator comes on.
If this does not happen, start the
procedure from the beginning again.
^
Press the Turbo/Combi tabs button
twice.
The Combi tabs indicator light will flash
briefly twice at intervals.
The characters "p15" will flash one
after the other in the display.
This means that the water hardness
level has been set at 15 °d (2.7 mmol/l)
(factory setting).
The value which has been set for the
water hardness is shown as a figure
after the "p" in the display (see the
following chart).
Use the programme selector button to
select the value which corresponds to
your water hardness level.
Each press on the button moves you up
a level. When the highest water
hardness level is reached, the setting
starts from the beginning again.
^ Switch the dishwasher off with the Off
button V.

Miele branded products are available
from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the internet at
www.miele-shop.com.
Before using the appliance for
the first time you require:
Approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt,
Domestic dishwasher detergent,
Rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers.
Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory.
There will be residual water in the
appliance from this test. It is not an
indication that it has been used
previously.
Filling the salt reservoir
If you use combination products
which have salt in them in your
dishwasher, such as "3 in 1" or
"4 in 1" products, you should still
add salt in order to achieve optimum
results and to ensure that the water
softener continues to function.
Selecting the Combi tabs option
reduces salt consumption to
between
1
/
3
and
1
/
4
of the normal
amount.
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d - German scale)
you do not need to add dishwasher
salt. However, the water softener
must still be programmed to
correspond to the water hardness
level in your area.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
reservoir with powder or liquid
dishwasher detergent will damage
the water softener. Make sure you
have picked up the correct packet
of dishwasher salt before filling the
salt reservoir!
,
Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation. Do
not use other salts such as cooking
salt, agricultural grade or gritting
salt. These may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the
functioning of the water softener.
Before using for the first time
18
^
When filling the salt reservoir only
open the door halfway to ensure
that all the salt gets into the reservoir.
^ Press the button on the lid of the salt
reservoir in the direction of the arrow
until the flap springs open.
^
Lift up the funnel.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with
water.
^ Add salt only until the reservoir is full
or until water runs out of the opening.
The salt reservoir holds approx. 1 kg
of salt, depending on the brand
used.
Do not add any more than 1 kg of
salt.
As the salt reservoir is filled, displaced
water may overflow.
^
Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening, and then close
the flap.
^
Run the Quick wash programme im
-
mediately (without any crockery in
the dishwasher, and without selecting
the Turbo extra option) to remove any
traces of salt from the cabinet.
Before using for the first time
19
Salt indicator
^
Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher
salt when the salt indicator light
comes on. (If it comes on during a
programme, wait until the end of the
programme).
After the reservoir has been filled, the
water softener is automatically
reactivated the next time the
dishwasher is run. The salt refill
indicator may still be illuminated during
this process. It will go out once the salt
concentration has reached the correct
level.
The salt indicator light will not come on
if the dishwasher is programmed for a
water hardness level of below
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d German scale).
,
After filling the salt reservoir, run
the Quick wash programme immedi-
ately (without any crockery in the
dishwasher, and without selecting
the Turbo extra option) to remove
any traces of salt from the cabinet.
Before using for the first time
20
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase and
helps crockery dry faster after it has
been washed.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is
dispensed automatically.
,
Inadvertently filling the rinse aid
reservoir with powder or liquid
detergent always causes serious
damage to the reservoir. Only pour
rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers into the reservoir.
Alternatively, it is possible to use
Household vinegar with a max. 5%
acid content
or
Liquid citric acid up to 10% acid
content.
The resulting rinsing and drying quality
will not, however, be as good as when
rinse aid is used.
,
Do not use vinegar with a higher
acid content (e.g. vinegar essence
25% acid). This would damage the
dishwasher.
If you only ever use combination
products containing rinse aid in your
dishwasher, you do not need to add
rinse aid.
Adding rinse aid
^ Press the button on the lid of the
rinse aid reservoir in the direction of
the arrow until the flap springs open.
Before using for the first time
21
^
Add rinse aid only until it is visible in
the opening.
The rinse aid reservoir holds approx.
110 ml.
^ Close the flap firmly so that it clicks
into place. Otherwise water can enter
the rinse aid reservoir during a
programme.
^ Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This
prevents over-foaming occurring
during the next programme.
Rinse aid indicator
When the light comes on the reservoir
contains sufficient rinse aid for2-3
programmes only.
^
Add rinse aid in plenty of time.
If the Combi tabs function has been
selected, the rinse aid indicator light
will not come on (see "Additional
functions, Turbo/Combi tabs").
Before using for the first time
22
Setting the rinse aid dosage
The rinse aid dosage can be set from
approx. 0-6 ml. It is set to a
recommended setting of approx. 3 ml
at the factory.
If the Adjust sensor wash function has
been activated, the amount of rinse aid
dispensed could be higher than that set
in the Sensor wash programme.
If spots appear on crockery and
glassware:
^
Increase the rinse aid dosage.
If clouding or smearing appears on
crockery and glassware:
^ Decrease the rinse aid dosage.
^ Switch the dishwasher off with the Off
button V.
^ Press the programme selector button
in, and whilst holding it in switch
the dishwasher on using the On
button U.
Keep the programme selector button
pressed in until the lower right hand
programme indicator comes on.
If this does not happen, start the
procedure from the beginning again.
^
Press the Turbo/Combi tabs button
three times.
The Combi tabs indicator light will flash
briefly three times at intervals.
p3will flash in the Time display.
This means that the rinse aid dosage
has been set to 3 ml at the factory.
The dosage set will show in the Time
display after the p.
^
Use the programme selector button
to select the rinse aid dosage you
want.
The dosage amount alters each time
you press the button.
The programmed rinse aid dosage is
now stored in memory.

There is no need to rinse items under
running water.
,
Do not wash items soiled with
ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease
or paint in the dishwasher.
These substances will damage the
dishwasher.
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in
the baskets, but the following notes
should be observed:
Do not place crockery and cutlery
inside other pieces where they may
be concealed.
Load the crockery so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures
that they get properly cleaned.
Make sure that all items are securely
positioned.
Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pans, etc. must be inverted in the
basket.
Tall, narrow, hollow items, e.g.
champagne glasses, should be
placed in the centre of the basket to
ensure better water coverage.
Wide based items should be placed
at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.
The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or hang
through the baskets.
If in doubt, test for free movement by
manually rotating the spray arms.
Make sure that small items cannot
fall through the holders in the
baskets. Small items, e.g. lids,
should therefore be placed in the
cutlery tray or cutlery basket
(depending on model).
Some foodstuffs may contain natural
dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or
ketchup. Plastic items in the
dishwasher may discolour if large
quantities of these foodstuffs find
their way into the appliance on the
crockery. The stability of plastic
items is not affected by this
discolouration.
Loading the dishwasher

Items not suitable for
dishwashers:
Wooden cutlery and crockery or
items with wooden parts: these may
discolour and fade. The glue used in
these items is not dishwasher-proof
and wooden handles may come
loose after being washed in a
dishwasher.
Craft items, antiques, valuable vases
and decorative glassware are also
not suitable for dishwashers.
Plastic items which are not heat
resistant: the high temperatures in
the dishwasher may cause them to
melt or lose shape.
Copper, brass, tin and aluminium
items may discolour or become matt.
Colours painted over a glaze may
fade after a number of washes.
Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing. Do not wash
delicate glassware, or glassware
containing lead crystal in a
dishwasher.
We recommend:
When purchasing new crockery and
cutlery, make sure they are
dishwasher-proof.
If delicate glassware is washed in the
dishwasher ensure that only very low
temperatures are used (see
programme chart), or a special
glass-care programme is used
(depending on model). This will
reduce the risk of clouding.
If in doubt, wash delicate glassware
by hand.
Please note
Silverware previously cleaned with a
silver polish may still be damp or
spotted at the end of a programme,
where water has not run off smoothly. It
may need to be rubbed dry with a soft
cloth.
Silver which has been in contact with
foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions,
mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish
brine and marinades.
,
Aluminium components (e.g.
grease filters) must not be cleaned
with caustic alkaline commercial or
industrial cleaning agents. These
may damage the material, or in
extreme cases, cause a severe
chemical reaction. See section
"Adding detergent" for information
on suitable detergents.

Upper basket
,
For safety reasons, do not
operate the dishwasher without the
upper and lower baskets in place.
^ Use the upper basket for small,
lightweight and delicate items such
as cups, saucers, glasses, dessert
bowls, etc. Shallow pans or casserole
dishes can also be placed in the
upper basket.
^
Long items such as soup ladles,
mixing spoons and long knives
should be placed lying down across
the front of the upper basket.
Hinged cup rack
^
To make room for tall items, raise the
rack upwards.
Positioning rail (depending on model)
Glasses can be arranged along the
positioning rail to give them some
support during the programme.
^ Raise the rail, and lean the glasses
against it.
The positioning rail can be flipped over
to the middle of the basket for easy
sorting and removing of crockery.
Loading the dishwasher
26
Support rail (depending on model)

Adjusting the upper basket
In order to gain more space for taller
pieces of crockery in the bottom or
upper basket, the upper basket can be
adjusted on three levels with 2 cm
between each level.
The upper basket can also be set at an
angle with one side high and the other
side low. This can be useful to help
prevent water collecting in deep dishes
etc. Ensure, however, that the basket
can be inserted smoothly into the
cabinet. It is better to adjust the basket
before loading it.
^ Pull out the upper basket.
To raise the upper basket:
^
Pull the basket up until it clicks into
place.
To lower the upper basket:
^
Pull upwards on the levers at either
side of the upper basket.

Detergent
,
Only use detergents formulated
for domestic dishwashers. Do not
use washing-up liquid.
Miele branded dishwasher cleaning
products are available from the Miele
Spare Parts Department or via the
Internet at www.miele-shop.com.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various
active ingredients, the most important
of which are:
Phosphates to prevent calcification.
Alkalis to aid removal of dried on
soiling.
Enzymes to break down starch and
dissolve protein.
Oxygen based bleaching agents to
remove coloured stains (e.g. tea,
coffee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents contain
phosphates and are mildly alkaline with
enzymes and oxygen based bleaching
agents. Phosphate free products are
rare.
Types of detergent:
Powder and liquid gel detergents.
These detergents allow you to adjust
the amount dispensed according to
the size of load and level of soiling.
Tab detergents. These are suitable
for most levels of soiling.
A variety of combination products is also
available (see section "Additional
functions, Combi-tab", depending on
model).
In addition to detergent, combi tabs
contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.
Combi tabs are available as "3 in 1" or,
when they also contain other components
such as glass and stainless steel
protective additives and enhanced
cleaning power, as "4 in 1", "5 in 1" etc.
Refer to the manufacturer's packaging as
to whether the combi tabs are suitable for
the water hardness level in your area.
Please note that the cleaning and drying
results of tab detergents can vary greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying
results use Miele dishwasher
detergent and add Miele salt and
Miele rinse aid separately.
Dispensing
^ Follow the dosage recommended on
the packaging.
^
Unless directed otherwise, use one
detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml
detergent in compartment II,
depending on the level of soiling.
With very heavy soiling you can also
add a small amount of detergent to
compartment l (see "Programme
chart").
^
Do not use tabs with the "Quick wash"
programme, as they will not dissolve
properly.
Failure to dispense the
recommended amount of detergent
may impair cleaning results.
Operation
34
,
Avoid inhalation of powder
detergents and do not ingest
dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher
detergents contain irritant or corrosive
ingredients which can cause burning
in the nose, mouth and throat if
swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Consult a doctor immediately if
detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled.
Keep detergent and other household
agents out of the reach of children at
all times. Keep children away from the
dishwasher when the door is open.
There could still be detergent residues
in the cabinet. To avoid the danger of
children coming into contact with the
dishwasher detergent, only add
detergent just before starting the
programme and close the door,
activating the child safety lock (if your
dishwasher is fitted with one).
Adding detergent
^
Press the opening catch on the
detergent dispenser. The flap will
spring open.
The flap is always open at the end of a
programme.
^ Add the required amount of
detergent and close the flap.
^ Make sure that the detergent
packaging is properly closed after
use to avoid it getting damp and
becoming lumpy.
For information
Compartment I holds max. 10 ml,
Compartment II holds max. 50 ml.
There are markings in compartment II
to assist with dispensing: 20, 30. The
marks indicate a level of approx. 20 or
30 ml when the door is open in a
horizontal position.
Operation
35
Switching on
^
Open the stopcock, if it is closed.
^
Open the door.
^
Make sure the spray arms are not
obstructed.
^
Switch the dishwasher on with the On
button U.
The On indiciator light U and the
indicator for the last used programme

Selecting a programme
Choose your programme according to
the type of load and how dirty it is.
The different programmes and their
uses are described in the Programme
chart later on in this booklet.
Starting a programme
^
Select the programme required with
the programme selector button.
The indicator light for the programme
selected lights up.
The programme duration will appear in
hours and minutes in the display.
If the Turbo and/or Combi tabs
functions have been selected, the
corresponding indicator(s) will also light
up.
You can now select an additional
function (see "Additional functions").
^ Start the programme by closing the
door.
The In-operation indicator light comes
on to show that a programme has been
started.
A programme can only be cancelled
in the first few minutes. Otherwise
the programme must continue to the
end so that important programme
stages (e.g. reactivating the water
softener) are not omitted.
Operation
36
Time display
The duration of the programme
selected appears in hours and minutes
in the Time display before the
programme begins. During the
programme, the time left until the end of
the programme is displayed.
The time displayed may vary with the
same programme. This can be due to
the water temperature at each intake,
the reactivation cycle, the amount of
crockery and how dirty it is.
When a programme is selected for the
first time, the display shows an average
time for a cold water intake.
The times shown in the Programme
chart refer to standard test loads and
temperatures.
Each time a programme is run, the
electronic unit adjusts the programme
duration according to the amount of
crockery and the temperature of the
incoming water.
To save energy, the time display goes
out after a few minutes if you do not
press any buttons during this time.
Press any button (apart from the Off
button V) to switch the time display
back on again.
At the end of a programme
At the end of a programme, the
In-operation indicator light will be
visible flashing slowly with the door
shut.
When the door is opened a "0" will
appear in the Time display.
You can now empty the dishwasher.
The In-operation indicator light will go
out one hour after the end of the
programme.
,
To prevent the risk of steam
damage to the worktop edging
above the dishwasher, it is
advisable to leave the door closed
until you are ready to unload the
crockery. Alternatively you can open
the door fully until the crockery is
cool enough to unload. Do not leave
the door only partially open.
Operation
37
Switching off
At the end of a programme:
^
Open the door.
^
Switch the dishwasher off with the Off
button V.
The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is switched off with
the Off button V.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e. g.
whilst on holiday, the stopcock should
be turned off.
Unloading the dishwasher
Dishes tend to break and chip more
easily when they are hot.
Allow the dishes to cool until they are
comfortable enough to handle before
unloading them.
If you open the door fully after switching
off, the dishes will cool much faster.
First unload the lower basket, then the
upper basket and finally the cutlery tray
(depending on model).
This will prevent water drops from the
upper basket and cutlery tray from
falling onto the dishes in the lower
basket.
Operation
38
Interrupting a programme
A programme is interrupted as soon as
the door is opened.
When the door is closed again, the
programme will continue from the point
it was at before the door was opened.
,
Water in the dishwasher may be
hot. Danger of scalding.
Only open the door if absolutely
necessary and exercise extreme
caution when doing so. Before
closing the door again, leave it ajar
for approx. 20 seconds. This will
enable the temperature in the wash
cabinet to settle. Then close the
door firmly, making sure that it clicks
into place.

Turbo
The Turbo function is used to reduce
the duration of programmes in which
this function is available.
In order to achieve optimum cleaning
results, consumption rates are
increased with this option.
If a full programme is not yet required,
the Turbo function can be used in
conjunction with the Quick wash
programme to rinse off dirty crockery.
Combi tabs
To ensure excellent results you can
programme your dishwasher for the
type of detergent you are using.
The Turbo/Combi tabs button is used
here for selecting between standard
detergents (powder, liquid and 2 in 1
tabs) and combination detergents
(3in1/4in1tabs etc.).
The programme sequence is then
adapted to suit the type of detergent
selected. Depending on the
programme, the duration can be
considerably longer.
If the Combi tabs indicator does not
light up, the dishwasher is set for stan-
dard detergent.
If the Combi tabs indicator lights up,
the programme sequence will be
adapted to suit detergents that contain
rinse aid and salt as well as other
components where applicable.
The rinse aid dispenser and the rinse
aid indicator light are deactivated.
Salt consumption for reactivating the
water softener is reduced to
1
/
3
to
1
/
4
of
the normal amount.
Do not select the Combi tabs option if
your water hardness level is above
3.8 mmol/l or 21°d.
Follow the detergent manufacturer's
instructions.
The cleaning and drying
performance of these types of
detergent can vary enormously.

Check your dishwasher regularly
(approx. every4-6months). This
way faults and problems can be
avoided.
Miele branded cleaning and
conditioning products are available
from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the internet at
www.miele-shop.com.
,
External surfaces of the
dishwasher are susceptible to
scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning
agents can alter or discolour the
outer surfaces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely
self-cleaning, provided that the correct
amount of detergent is always used.
If, however, there are limescale or
grease deposits in the cabinet, these
can be removed with a proprietary
dishwasher cleaner or conditioner.
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
^
Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
^
When the dishwasher is being
loaded, food and drink residues may
drip onto the sides of the dishwasher
door.
These surfaces are outside the wash
cabinet and are not accessed by
water from the spray arms. Any
soiling should be wiped off these
surfaces before the door is closed.
Cleaning the reflector panel
The reflector panel for the In-operation
indicator light is situated in the
coverplate underneath the worktop.
^ The reflector panel should only be
wiped with a damp cloth or a suitable
cleaning agent designed for use on
plastic.
Cleaning and care
46
Cleaning the control panel and
door front
,
Remove any soiling immediately.
If not, it might become impossible to
remove and could cause the outer
surface to alter or discolour.
^
The control panel should only be
wiped with a damp cloth.
^
Clean the front using a damp Miele
microfibre E-cloth or with a sponge
and a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid. Then dry with a
soft cloth.
To avoid damaging external
surfaces, do not use:
cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides,
cleaning agents containing
descaling agents,
abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream
cleaners.
solvent-based cleaning agents,
stainless steel cleaning agents,
dishwasher cleaner,
oven sprays,
glass cleaning agents,
hard, abrasive sponges and
brushes, e.g. pot scourers,
sharp metal scrapers.
Cleaning and care
47
Cleaning the filters in the wash
cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution, preventing it
accessing the circulation system and
re-entering the cabinet through the
spray arms.
,
The dishwasher must not be
used without all the filters in place.
Collection of coarse soil may cause the
filters to clog. The level of soiling and
time it takes before the filters need
cleaning will vary depending on use.
Check the condition of the filters
regularly and clean them if necessary.
^ Switch the dishwasher off.
^
Turn the handle anti-clockwise to
release the filter combination a.
^ Lift the filter combination out of the
dishwasher b. Remove any coarse
particles and rinse the filter well
under running water. Use a nylon
brush if necessary.
Cleaning and care
48
To clean the inside of the filter, the flap
must be opened:
^ Press catches a together in the
direction of the arrows as shown,
and open the filter b.
^ Rinse all the filters under running
water.
^ Then close the flap so that the catch
engages.
^
Replace the filter combination so that
it lies flat in the base of the wash
cabinet.
^ Then turn the handle clockwise, until
the arrows line up, to lock the filter
combination in place.
,
Take care when you are fitting
the filter combination that it is
secured in position correctly.
Otherwise coarse soil could get into
the circulation system and cause a
blockage.
Cleaning and care
49
Cleaning the spray arms

Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw
connection of the valve on the water
inlet hose. The filter must be cleaned
when dirty, otherwise insufficient water
flows into the wash cabinet.
,
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be dipped in
water.
Recommendation
If the mains water contains a large
amount of insoluble substances, we
recommend fitting a large-area filter in
the connection between the stopcock
and the water inlet hose threaded
union. This filter is available from the
Miele Spares Parts dept.
Cleaning the filter:
^ Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply. Switch off at the mains
socket and withdraw the plug.
^
Close the stopcock.
^
Unscrew the inlet hose.
^
Carefully remove the seal.
^ Withdraw the filter using pointed
pliers and rinse clean under running
water.
^ Replace the filter and seal, making
sure they are sitting correctly.
^ Reconnect the inlet hose to the
stopcock, making sure it goes on
correctly and is not cross-threaded.
^
Turn on the stopcock gradually to
test for leaks. If there is a leak, the
inlet hose might not be on securely,
or it may have been screwed on at an
angle. Unscrew and reconnect the
water inlet valve correctly.
Maintenance
60
Cleaning the drain pump and
non-return valve
If the water has not been pumped away
at the end of a programme the drain
pump or the non-return valve might be
blocked. They are, however, easy to
clean.
^
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply. Switch off at the mains
socket and withdraw the plug.
^
Take the filter combination out of the
wash cabinet (see "Cleaning and
care - Cleaning the filters in the wash
cabinet").
^ Scoop the water out of the cabinet
using a suitable container or utensil.
^
Press the catch for the non-return
valve inwards a.
^
Lift out the non-return valve b, and
rinse well under running water.
^
Remove all foreign objects from the
non-return valve.
The drain pump is situated under the
non-return valve (see arrow).
^ Remove all foreign objects from the
drain pump (watch out for glass or
bone splinters which are particularly
difficult to detect and could cause
injury). Turn the drain pump impeller
by hand to check that there are no
more obstructions. You will feel a little
resistance when you turn the
impeller.
^
Carefully replace the non-return valve
and secure it with the catch.
,
Ensure that the catch engages
correctly.

The Miele waterproof anti-leak
system
Providing your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.
Connection to the water
supply
,
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
The dishwasher may be connected
to a cold or hot water supply, max.
60 °C. We would only recommend
connection to a hot water supply if it
is economical, e.g. a solar powered
supply. When connected to a hot
water supply all programme stages
which would otherwise be carried out
with cold water will be carried out
with hot water.
The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
A 1.5 metre long flexible metal
extension hose, pressure tested to
14,000 kPa/ 140 bar, is available as
an optional accessory if required.
A stopcock with a
3
/
4
" male thread
must be provided on site.
This appliance is constructed to
comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 //
VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be
connected to a suitable supply
without an extra non-return valve if
national regulations permit.
The water pressure (flow pressure at
the take-off point) must be between
30 and 1000 kPa (0.3 and 10 bar).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be
fitted.
,
To avoid any damage to the
appliance, the dishwasher must only
be connected to a fully vented
plumbing system.
! The inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
as it contains electrical components
(see illustration).
Plumbing
69
Drainage
The appliance drainage system is
fitted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.
The dishwasher is supplied with
approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
The drain hose can be extended
using a connection piece to attach a
further length of hose.
The drainage length must not be
longer than 4 m, and the delivery
head must not exceed 1 m.
If the hose is to be directly fitted to
the drainage outlet on site, use the
hose clip supplied (see installation
diagram).
The hose can be directed to the left
or the right of the appliance.
The on-site connector for the drain
hose can be adapted to different
widths of hose. If the connector
protrudes too far into the drain hose,
it will need to be shortened.
Otherwise the drain hose may
become blocked.
The drain hose must not be
shortened.
,
Make sure that there are no
kinks in the hose, and that it is not
squashed or stretched.
Venting the drainage system
If the on-site drain connection is
situated lower than the guide path for
the bottom basket rollers in the open
door, the drainage system must be
vented. Otherwise a siphoning effect
during a programme can cause the
appliance to empty itself of water.
To vent it:
^
Open the dishwasher door fully.
^
Pull the lower spray arm firmly
upwards to remove it.
^
Cut off the top of the vent valve in the
wash cabinet.
