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
such as:
– Shops
– Offices and showrooms
and by residents in establishments
such as:
–Hostels and guest houses.
~The dishwaher 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
~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 also
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.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
~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.
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).
Warning and Safety instructions
8
~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
submerged in water.
~There are electrical 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 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 appliance could be
dangerous. If the dishwasher gets
damaged, switch it off at the mains and
call your Miele Dealer or the Miele Ser-
vice 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. Only when these parts are
fitted can the safety standards of the
appliance be guaranteed.
~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 the Miele
Service Department or a Miele
authorised 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.

Installation
~The dishwasher must be installed
and connected in compliance with the
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.
~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. Consult a doctor immediate-
ly 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.
