This instruction book applies to several different dishwasher models.

The specific dishwasher models are referred to as follows:

Standard = 80.5 cm high dishwashers (integrated)

and 84.5 cm high dishwashers (freestanding)

XXL = 84.5 cm high dishwashers

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 not designed for commercial use. It is intended for use in domestic households and in similar working and residential environments.
The dishwasher is not intended for outdoor use.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specified in these operating instructions, for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery.

Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.

The appliance can only be used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appliance unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the dishwasher if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance unsupervised.

Keep very young children away from it at all times and supervise them whilst you are using it. To prevent the risk of injury, do not allow them to play with it or use the controls. There is a danger that children playing might shut themselves in the dishwasher.

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.

Seek medical attention immediately if your child has swallowed or inhaled detergent.

Technical safety

Before setting up the appliance, check it for any externally visible damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged appliance. It 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 is 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 and any adjustment has been made to the door springs.

Before connecting the appliance, check that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is observed 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 adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

The appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.

The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical component. The housing must not be dipped in water.
There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not 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 it can be seen that this is 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 dishwasher 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, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the guarantee.
▶ Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guarantee the safety standards of the appliance.
▶ 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 special cable available from Miele. For safety reasons this must only be fitted by Miele Service or a Miele approved service technician.
In 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 covered by the guarantee.

Correct installation

The dishwasher must be installed and connected in compliance with the diagram supplied.

Take care, both before and during installation of the dishwasher, not to cut yourself on the metal parts. Danger of injury. Wear protective gloves.

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.

The door springs must be adjusted equally on both sides. They are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left open at 45^ . It is important that the door is held in place by the springs and cannot fall open.

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. Seek medical attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
▶ Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over it.
Dishes can be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow them to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading.
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.

Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent. This 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, as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water 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 original spare parts and accessories with this dishwasher. Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers 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.

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing has been 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 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
  – Polypropylene (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

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.

Warning symbol for a waste bin with crossed lines indicating no waste and a solid black rectangle below.

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.

To enable sorting by type of plastic for recycling, all plastic parts of the appliance are labelled with international standard symbols.

Energy saving dishwashing

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 water supply 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 ECO programme for energy-saving dishwashing. This programme is the most efficient in terms of its combined energy and water consumption at cleaning normally soiled crockery.

■ Follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations on detergent dosage.

■ When using powder or liquid detergent you can use 13 less detergent if baskets are only half full.

To open the door

Illustration of a hand pointing at a line on a surface (no text or symbols)

■ 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.

Display

Sprache

OK

General

The display is used to select or set the following:

• the programme
• extras
• the delay start time
• settings

During a programme, the display shows the following:

– the stage the programme is at
– the estimated time left for the programme to run
– any relevant fault messages and notes

To save energy, the dishwasher switches off after a few minutes if you do not press any buttons during this time (see "Operation, Standby"). Press the Ⓐ button to switch the dishwasher back on again.

Settings menu

The Settings menu is used to alter the dishwasher's electronics to suit different requirements.

You access the settings menu by pressing a specific button combination. See "Settings menu" for more details.

In the Settings menu, the normal functions of the buttons next to the display are switched off so that these buttons can be used to select and confirm Setting options.

The arrows on the left and right of the display, indicate further options. You can use the left or right of the three buttons next to the display, as appropriate, to select these further options.

The middle of the three buttons next to the display is used to confirm a message or setting and also to move to the next menu or to another menu level.

A tick will appear beside the option which is currently selected.

Basic settings

■ Switch the dishwasher on with the On/Off button ①.

If the dishwasher is being switched on for the first time, the welcome screen will appear.

Language

The display will then change automatically to the screen for setting the language.

See "Display" for more information about the display.

■ Select the language you want, and confirm your selection with the middle button.

A tick √ will appear next to the language that has been set.

Water hardness

The display will then change to the screen for setting the water hardness.

• 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 - German scale).

■ Select the water hardness you want, and confirm your selection with the middle button.

See "Settings, Water hardness" for further information.

Finally, two messages will appear in the display.

After confirming these, the prompts:

i Replenish rinse aid and i Replenish salt may also appear.

Press any button to confirm these. The display will change to show the main menu.

These basic settings will be saved in memory after the dishwasher has been through one complete programme.

Before using the appliance for the first time, you require:

• approx. 1 kg dishwasher salt*,
  – domestic dishwasher detergent*,
• rinse aid* formulated for domestic dishwashers.

*See "Optional accessories"

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

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 in this dishwasher is suitable for a water hardness level of up to 12.6 mmol/l (70 °d - German scale).

The water softener requires dishwasher salt.

Depending on the water hardness level ( ≤ 3.8 mmol/l, or 21 °d - German scale), dishwasher salt is not required if combination tablets are being used (see "Detergent").

If the water in your area is very soft and constantly lower than

you do not need to add dishwasher salt. The water softener must, however, 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, as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water softener.

■ When filling the salt reservoir only open the door halfway to ensure that all the salt gets into the reservoir.

Diagram showing a device with a downward arrow and labeled components, likely illustrating a process or state change.

■ Press the button on the lid of the salt reservoir in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.

Salt Salt Zn Zn Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt Salt

■ 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 immediately without any crockery in the dishwasher to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet (do not use the Turbo function if your dishwasher has this feature).

"Replenish salt" message

■ Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for reactivation when the
→ Replenish salt message appears.
(If it appears during a programme, wait until the end of the programme).
■ Confirm by pressing the middle button.

The "Replenish salt" message will go out.

After the salt reservoir has been filled, the "Replenish salt" message may still appear in the display if the salt concentration has not yet reached the correct level.

If this is the case, press the middle button again.

The replenish salt message will not appear if the dishwasher has been programmed for a water hardness level of less than 0.7 mmol/l (4 °d German scale).

After filling the salt reservoir, run the Quick wash programme immediately (without any crockery in the dishwasher, and without selecting the Turbo function) to remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.

If you only ever use combination products containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch the reminders off if you wish (see "Settings menu - Replenish salt and rinse aid reminders").

If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to replenish the salt and rinse aid and to switch the reminders back on.

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 will always cause serious damage to the reservoir.

Alternatively, it is possible to use

- Household vinegar with a max. 5% acid content

or

- Liquid citric acid with 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 containing 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.

Illustration of a hand inserting a plug into a washing machine (no text or symbols)

■ 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.

You can adjust the rinse aid dosage for best results (see Settings menu, Rinse aid).

Replenish rinse aid message

When the ✦ Replenish rinse aid message appears, the reservoir contains sufficient rinse aid for 2 - 3 programmes only.

■ Add rinse aid in plenty of time.
■ Confirm by pressing the middle button.

The "Replenish rinse aid" message will go out.

If you only ever use combination products containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch the reminders off if you wish (see "Settings menu - Replenish salt and rinse aid reminders").

If you switch to using detergent that does not contain salt or rinse aid, it is important to remember to replenish the salt and rinse aid and to switch the reminders back on.

Note

Remove coarse food residues from crockery.

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.

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 (except when running the Tall items 65 °C programme, if available).

Line drawing of a basket filled with various items including cans, bulbs, and a coin (no text or symbols)

■ 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.

■ Pull the rail upwards and click it back into position at the required height.

Use the low setting for small glasses and tumblers.

Use the high setting for tall glasses and glasses with stems.

Adjusting the upper basket

In order to gain more space for taller pieces of crockery in the lower 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 being left in deep dishes etc. Ensure, however, that the basket can slide smoothly in and out of the cabinet. It is better to adjust the basket before loading it.

■ Pull out the upper basket.

Detergent

△ Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.

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 loosen 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 amount of load and level of soiling.
• Tab detergents. These are suitable for most levels of soiling.

You can also buy combination products. In addition to detergent, these products contain rinse aid and salt substitutes. They 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 "5 in 1", "7 in 1", "All in 1", etc.

Refer to the manufacturer's packaging as to whether combination products are suitable for the water hardness level in your area.

Please note that the cleaning and drying results of combination detergents can vary greatly.

For optimum cleaning and drying results, use Miele dishwasher detergent and add Miele salt and Miele rinse aid separately. See "Optional accessories".

Dispensing

■ Follow the dosage recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.
■ Unless directed otherwise, use one detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml detergent to compartment II, depending on the level of soiling. With very heavy soiling you can also add a small amount of detergent to compartment I (see "Programme chart").
- Tabs may not dissolve completely when the Quick wash 40°C programme is used.

Failure to dispense the recommended amount of detergent may impair cleaning results.

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.

Illustration of a hand using a tool to press food into a digital device (no text or symbols visible)

■ 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.

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/Off button ①.

One of the programmes will appear in the display and the appropriate indicator light will come on. After a short while, the estimated programme duration for the programme selected will appear in the display.

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.

■ Select the programme required with the programme selector button.

The indicator light next to the selected programme will come on.

You can now select additional functions (see "Additional functions").

Starting the programme

■ Start the programme by closing the door.

The In-operation indicator light comes on to show that a programme has started.

If any additional functions are selected, the appropriate indicators will also light up.

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.

Display

The duration of the programme selected appears in hours and minutes in the display before the programme begins. During the programme, the time left until the end of the programme is displayed.

Symbols appear to indicate which stage the programme is at:

Pre-wash / Soak

Main wash

Interim rinse

Final rinse

Drying

Finished

The time displayed may vary with the same programme. This can be due, among other factors, to the water temperature at each intake, the reactivation process, the type of detergent, 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 takes the new conditions into account, and calculates the time required.

Standby

To save energy, the dishwasher will switch to Standby mode a few minutes after the last time a button has been pressed or a few minutes after the end of the programme. The display and the indicator lights will go out and only the On/Off indictator light Ⓘ will flash slowly.

■ Press the On/Off button Ⓐ to switch the display and indicators back on again.

If the dishwasher is not switched off at the end of the programme, it will switch off completely after a few minutes in Standby mode (see "Settings menu, Optimise standby").

The dishwasher will not switch into Standby mode whilst a programme is running, if salt or rinse aid needs to be replenished or there is a fault.

If you only use combination products containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch off the reminders to replenish salt and rinse aid so that the dishwasher will go into Standby despite a lack of salt or rinse aid (see "Before using for the first time"). You cannot switch off fault messages.

At the end of the programme

At the end of a programme, the In-operation indicator light will be visible flashing slowly with the door shut.

After the door is opened, ⏻ Finished will appear in the display.

The drying fan will continue to run for a few minutes at the end of the Quick wash programme.

You can now empty the dishwasher.

The In-operation indicator light will go out 10 minutes 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.

Switching off

At the end of a programme:

■ Open the door.

■ Switch the dishwasher off using the On/Off button ①.

The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until it is switched off with the On/Off button ①.

If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e. g. whilst on holiday, the stopcock should be closed.

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.

Interrupting a programme

A programme is interrupted as soon as the door is opened.

If 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.

Changing a programme

If the detergent dispenser flap has already opened, do not change the programme.

If a programme has already started and you wish to change it, proceed as follows:

■ Open the door.
■ Switch the dishwasher off using the On/Off button ①.
■ Switch the dishwasher on again with the On/Off button ①.
■ Select the programme required with the programme selector button.
■ Start the programme by closing the door.

The In-operation indicator light comes on to show that a programme has been started.

Intensive lower basket

The Intensive lower basket additional function allows you to wash heavily soiled items in the lower basket while washing more delicate items in the upper basket.

Cleaning performance in the lower basket is intensified in programmes where this function is available. Depending on the programme, this can mean that the running time varies slightly.

■ Open the door.
■ Switch the dishwasher on with the On/Off button ①.

The On/Off indicator light ① comes on.

■ Select a programme.
■ Press the Intensive lower basket button.

The Intensive lower basket indicator light will come on if the function is available for the programme which has been selected.

■ Start the programme by closing the door.

Once set, the function will remain active for the programme selected until the setting is changed.

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 when Turbo has been selected.

If a full programme is not yet required the Turbo function can be used in conjunction with the Quick wash programme to rinse dirty crockery, using cold water only and without a drying cycle.

■ Open the door.

■ Switch the dishwasher on with the On/Off button ①.

The On/Off indicator light ① comes on.

■ Select a programme.

■ Press the Turbo button.

The Turbo indicator light will come on if the function is available for the programme which has been selected.

■ Start the programme by closing the door.

Once selected, the function will remain active for all programmes until the setting is changed.

Delay start

The start time of a programme can be delayed, e.g. to benefit from economy rates of electricity. A delay start time of between 30 minutes and 24 hours can be selected. The delay start time is set in 30 minute steps.

When using the Delay start function, make sure that the detergent compartment is dry before adding detergent. Wipe dry with a cloth if necessary. If the compartment is wet, powder detergent can become lumpy and stick to the dispenser, with the result that it is not fully dispensed.

Do not use liquid detergent when selecting Delay start, as it can run into the dishwasher before it is required.

■ Open the door.
■ Switch the dishwasher on using the On/Off button ①.

The On/Off indicator light ① comes on.

■ Select the programme required with the programme selector button.

■ Press the ◆ button.

The last delay start time used will appear in the display. The ◆ indicator lights up.

■ Set the required time using the 🔊 button.

If the ◆ button is kept pressed in, the time will increase automatically up to 24:00 h. To start at 30 minutes again, press the ◆ button twice.

■ Close the door.

If, after you have set the delay start time, you do not press close the door within a few seconds, the display will revert to showing the programme duration. You will have to enter the delay start time again.

The delay start time then counts down to the start time selected in minute stages.

At the end of the delay period, the programme selected begins automatically. The time left for a programme to run then shows in the display, the ◆ indicator light goes out, and the indicator light for the programme selected comes on.

Starting a programme before the Delay start period has elapsed:

A programme can be started before the Delay start period has elapsed.

Proceed as follows:

■ Open the door.
■ Switch the dishwasher off using the On/Off button ①.
■ Switch the dishwasher on again with the On/Off button ①.
■ Start the programme by closing the door.

The In-operation indicator light comes on to show that a programme has been started.

DetergentAgent

For optimum cleaning results, the dishwasher automatically adjusts the programme sequence to the type of detergent being used. Depending on the programme, this can mean that the running time and energy consumption vary slightly.

Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions on dosage.

The cleaning and drying performance of different types of detergent can vary greatly.

If you only ever use combination products containing salt and rinse aid in your dishwasher, you can switch the reminders off if you wish (see "Settings menu - Replenish salt and rinse aid reminders"). The DetergentAgent function will not be affected by this.

Please make sure that if you start using dishwasher salt and rinse aid again, you switch the reminders back on.

Check your dishwasher regularly (approx. every 4 - 6 months). This way faults and problems can be avoided.

The external surfaces of the dishwasher are susceptible to scratching.

Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the external 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*. Follow the instructions on the packaging.

If you mainly use low temperature programmes (below 50 °C), bacteria and unpleasant odours can build in the wash cabinet. To clean the wash cabinet and prevent unpleasant odours building up, run the Pots & Pans 75°C programme once month.

Make sure that you also clean the filters in the wash cabinet regularly.

Cleaning the door and the door seal

■ Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove food deposits.

■ Wipe off any food or drink residues which may have dripped onto the sides of dishwasher door before closing it.

If this is not done, mould could build up on these surfaces as they are outside the wash cabinet and so not accessed and cleaned by the spray arm jets.

Cleaning the reflector panel

The reflector panel for the In-operation indicator light is situated in the coverplate underneath the worktop.

■ The reflector panel and its plastic holder should only be wiped with a damp cloth or a suitable cleaning agent designed for use on plastic.

Cleaning the control panel and door front

⚠️ Remove any soiling immediately.

If this is not done, it might become impossible to remove and could cause the external surfaces 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 clean sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid. Then dry with a soft cloth.

To avoid damaging the 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,
  – melamine eraser blocks,
  – sharp metal scrapers,
• steam cleaning appliances.
  * See "Optional accessories"

Checking 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.

⚠ This 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.

The message Check filters will appear in the display after every 50 programme cycles (factory default setting).

You can set the interval for this message to appear to between 30 and 60 programme cycles (see "Settings menu, Check filters").

■ Check the filter combination.
■ Clean it, if necessary.
■ Confirm the message with the middle button.

The display will change to show the main menu.

Cleaning the filters

■ Switch the dishwasher off.

Diagram showing a hand operating a mechanical component with numbered parts and directional arrows indicating motion or assembly.

■ Turn the handle anti-clockwise to release the filter combination ①.

■ Lift the filter combination out of the dishwasher ②. Remove any coarse particles and rinse the filter well under running water. Use a nylon brush if necessary.

⚠️ Make sure that when cleaning the filters, no coarse soil falls into the circulation system, causing a blockage.

■ Replace the filter combination so that it lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet.

■ Then turn the handle clockwise 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 the spray arms

Particles of food can get stuck in the spray arm jets and bearings. The spray arms should therefore be inspected and cleaned regularly (approx. every 4 - 6 months).

■ Switch the dishwasher off.

Remove the spray arms as follows:

■ Take out the cutlery tray (if your dishwasher is fitted with one).
■ Push the top spray arm upwards to engage the inner ratchet. Then unscrew the spray arm.

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.

Exploded view diagram of a faucet showing internal components (no text or labels)

■ 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.

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 - Checking the filters in the wash cabinet").
■ Scoop the water out of the cabinet using a suitable container or utensil.

Electrical connection U.K.

All electrical work must be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, in accordance with current local and national safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK).

Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation work has been carried out.

The appliance is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to a 230-240V mains supply. Please ensure the connection data quoted on the data plate match the household mains supply.

Connection should be made via a suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation.

For extra safety it is advisable to protect the appliance with a suitable residual current device (RCD). Contact a qualified electrician for advice.

Do not connect via an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

This appliance must not be connected to the inverter of an autonomous power supply, e.g. a solar power system. When switching the appliance on, a surge in power could trigger the safety cut-out mechanism.

This appliance must not be used with so-called energy saving devices. These reduce the energy supply to the appliance which could then become too warm. Using such devices could alter the specification of the product.

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363

The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted).

Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

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 Without heater programme (if available) requires a hot water supply of between 45 °C (minimum) and 60 °C (maximum). The higher the water intake temperature, the better the cleaning and drying results.
• 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.

Plumbing

- The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between 30 and 1000kPa (0.3 and 10 bar). If the water pressure is lower than this, the fault message Water inlet fault will appear in the display (see Problem solving guide). If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fitted.

After connecting the dishwasher to the water supply, check that all plumbing connections are watertight.

⚠️ 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).

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.

After connecting the dishwasher to the drainage system, check that all plumbing connections are watertight.

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.
