Frequently Asked Questions - CSWA 400 MIELE

How do I change the measurement unit from kg to lb/oz?

When the scale is switched off, press the control for about 5 seconds. The current unit appears. Briefly press to change, then press and hold for about 5 seconds until "88888" appears to save.

What type of battery does the scale use?

The Miele CSWA 400 uses a 9V PP3 battery. Replacement is needed approximately every 2 years.

How do I calibrate the scale (tare)?

Press the control until the display shows "0.000" kg or "0: 0.0" lb/oz. This zeros the scale for adding more items.

What should I do if the display shows '···'?

This indicates the load exceeds 10 kg (22 lb). Remove some weight to avoid overloading.

My scale is not turning on; what could be the issue?

First, ensure the battery is inserted correctly and has charge. If the display shows nothing, replace the 9V battery. Also check the battery clip connection.

Can I use the scale to weigh hot items?

No, never place hot pots or pans on the weighing surface as it can damage the electronic unit underneath. Allow items to cool first.

How do I clean the ceramic surface?

Use a damp cloth with mild washing-up liquid. For stubborn soiling, use a ceramic cleaner. Avoid abrasive agents, scouring pads, or steam cleaners. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The maximum load capacity is 10 kg (22 lb). Weights above this will show "···" and may damage the scale.

How do I install the scale into the countertop?

Cut a hole in the worktop according to the dimensions: 266 mm (W) x 500 mm (D) for one appliance, with a minimum 50 mm safety distance from walls. Seal cut surfaces with heat-resistant sealant. Follow the detailed installation diagram in the manual.

What does the 'C 100' error mean?

'C 100' appears when you try to change the measurement unit while the scale is on. Turn off the scale, remove any weight, wait 2 minutes for auto-off, then try again.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance you should read these operating instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important notes on the safety, operation and care of the appliance.

This appliance is intended for domestic use only and is not to be used for commercial purposes.
Do not drop pots, pans or other objects on the ceramic surface.

Even a light object could cause the ceramic surface to crack or break in certain circumstances.

To avoid damage such as scratches or marks on the surface please note the following:

• Do not use knives to cut food on the weighing surface.
• Never push pots and pans etc. back and forth across the weighing surface. Soiling such as sand can also cause scratches to occur.
• Never place hot, dirty or damp containers or pans etc. on the weighing surface. Please note that soiling containing starches or acids can cause marks to appear which cannot be removed.

Never place hot pots or pans near the display area. The electronic unit underneath could get damaged.

• Keep hot pans etc away from the control. The lacquering on it is not heat-resistant.
  Do not let liquid get into the building-in frame through the gap around the appliance. This could damage the electronic unit. If liquid does get into the building-in frame, wipe it up immediately to avoid any damage or unpleasant odours building up.
  Also make sure that food particles cannot get lodged in the gap around the appliance or get into the building-in frame. This could result in an incorrect weight being shown in the display.
  Only lift the ceramic weighing surface up by the control. Do not use any metal implements to lift it up. These could scratch the frame.
  Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could cause permanent damage to the surface and to components, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability.
  While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

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!

Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.

Disposal of an old appliance

Old appliances contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your local waste collection centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling schemes.

Used batteries should be disposed of safely.

General notes

A data plate for your appliance is supplied with this documentation. It should be stuck into the space provided at the end of the instruction book.

Keep these instructions in a safe place for reference and pass them on to any future user.

Inserting the battery

Before the weighing function can be used, the battery supplied must be inserted into the appliance.

Cleaning for the first time

Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a damp cloth only and then wipe dry.

Changing from metric to imperial measurements

The weight can be displayed in kg or in lb/oz. You can only change from one to the other when the weighing function is switched off.

Altering the weight measurement unit

■ Press the control for about 5 seconds.

The measurement unit currently selected will appear in the display.

■ To change the measurement unit displayed, press the control briefly.

■ Then press the control again for approx. 5 seconds until "88888" appears in the display.

The measurement unit selected is now stored in memory.

If you try to do this with the weighing function switched on, "C 100" will appear in the display.

Remove any food which has been placed on the surface and wait 2 minutes for the weighing function to switch off automatically.

Now start again from the beginning.

Switching on and weighing

■ Switch on the weighing function by pressing the control.

"88888" will appear in the display first of all, followed automatically by

"0.000" kg or

"0: 0.0" lb/oz .

The weighing function is now ready for use.

■ If possible, the items to be weighed should be placed in the middle of the weighing surface.

The weight will appear in the display.

Calibrating

You can calibrate the weighing function, i.e. set the display back to zero, to add items to those already weighed.

■ Press the control until the zeros appear in the display.

You can calibrate it again if you want to weigh additional items.

Finally you can call up the total weight in the display by calibrating the weighing function once again and then removing all the items.

The total weight will be displayed with a (-) in front of the amount.

Over loading / under loading

If the item(s) being weighed is more than 10 kg / 22 lb "···" will appear in the display.

If the item(s) being weighed is less than 0.015 kg / 0.6 oz, a value will appear in the display. However, this value will be incorrect as the appliance is not designed for items less than 0.015 kg / 0.6 oz.

Switching off

■ Press the control until "0.000" kg or "0: 0.0" lb/oz appears in the display.

■ Switch off the weighing function by pressing the control again.

If the weighing function is not used for a period of two minutes, it will switch itself off automatically.

Replacing the battery

The battery needs replacing approx. every 2 years. When it does, the following will appear in the display:

A 9V battery PP3 is required.

Proceed as follows:

■ Lift the ceramic weighing surface up by the control.
■ Pull the weighing surface out with both hands and place it with the underside facing upwards on a clean, smooth surface.
■ Open the battery compartment lid.
■ Remove the used battery and take off the battery clip.
■ Secure the battery clip to the new battery and once connected, place the battery in the battery compartment.

■ Close the battery compartment lid firmly making sure that it clicks into place.
■ Place the weighing surface back on to the building-in frame.

Only lift the ceramic weighing surface up by the control. Do not use any metal implements to lift it up. These could scratch the frame.

Used batteries should be disposed of safely.

Under no circumstances use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could cause permanent damage to the surface and to components, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability.

Only lift the ceramic weighing surface up by the control. Do not use any metal implements to lift it up. These could scratch the frame.

Never use abrasive or aggressive cleaning agents, such as grill or oven cleaning sprays, stain or rust removers, scouring agents, pads or sponges as these could damage the surface of the appliance.

The ceramic surface of the appliance should be cleaned after each use. Also check the frame after each use and remove any food debris or liquid immediately. Clean the building-in frame regularly.

Use a damp cloth or a solution of washing up liquid and hot water, as necessary.

For more stubborn soiling, a cleaning agent specially designed for cleaning ceramic surfaces may be used. After cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp cloth to avoid smearing.

Finally, wipe dry the whole appliance using a clean, soft cloth.
