Warning and Safety instructions
This dishwasher complies with all current local and national safety
requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to personal injury and
damage to property. Please observe the installation sheet and read the
operating instructions carefully before setting up the dishwasher and using it
for the first time. They both contain important information on the
installation, safety, use, and maintenance of the machine. This prevents both
personal injury and damage to the dishwasher. In accordance with standard IEC
60335-1, Miele expressly and strongly advises that you read and follow the
instructions in “Installation” and in “Warning and Safety instructions”. Miele
cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by noncompliance with these
instructions. Keep the installation sheet and the operating instructions in a
safe place and pass them on to any future owner.
7
Warning and Safety instructions Correct application This appliance is designed
for domestic use and for use in similar
environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed & breakfasts, and other
typical living quarters. This does not include common/ shared facilities or
commercial facilities within hotels, motels or bed & breakfasts. This
dishwasher is not suitable for outdoor use. The dishwasher is intended for use
at altitudes of up to 4,000 m above sea level. The dishwasher must only be
used for cleaning domestic crockery and cutlery. Any other use is not
permitted. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their safety, and
are able to recognise the dangers of misuse.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Safety with children Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
Older children may only use the dishwasher if its operation has been clearly
explained to them and they are able to use it safely. They must be able to
understand and recognise the possible dangers of misuse. Cleaning work may
only be carried out by older children under the supervision of an adult.
Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher. Keep small
children away from the appliance at all times to avoid the risk of injury.
Ensure that they do not play with the appliance. There is a risk that children
may lock themselves in the dishwasher. If the automatic door opening mechanism
is active (depending on the model), keep young children away from the area in
which the door opens. There is a danger of injury in the unlikely event of a
fault with the opening mechanism. Danger of suffocation! While playing,
children may become entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping)
or pull it over their head with the risk of suffocation. Keep packaging
material away from children. Keep detergents and other household cleaning
agents out of reach of children. Some dishwasher detergents are strongly
alkaline and contain irritants and corrosive ingredients. They can be
extremely dangerous if swallowed, and can cause severe skin burns and eye
damage. They can cause burning in the mouth, nose and throat, or inhibit
breathing. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Keep children away from the
dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be detergent residues in
the cabinet or dispenser. Check that the dispenser is empty after the
completion of a programme. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has
swallowed or inhaled any detergent. Contact a Poisons Information Centre
(Australia) or the National Poisons Centre (NZ).
9
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and repairs must
only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician. Damage to the dishwasher
can compromise your safety. Before using the dishwasher and in particular
following transport, check it for any visible damage. Never use a damaged
dishwasher. The electrical safety of this dishwasher 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. If in doubt, the
electrical installation should be checked by a qualified electrician. Miele
cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system
(e.g. electric shock). Temporary or permanent operation with a self-sufficient
or nonmains synchronous energy supply system (e.g. isolated networks, back-up
systems) is possible. A requirement for the operation is that the energy
supply system complies with all current local and national requirements that
apply to stand-alone, solar and/or battery systems. The protective measures
provided in the installation and in this Miele product must also be assured in
their function and operation in isolated operation or in non-mains synchronous
operation, or replaced with equivalent measures in the installation. The
dishwasher must only be connected to the electricity supply via a suitable
switched socket using a 3-pole plug with protective contact (it must not be
hardwired). The socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher is
installed so that it can be disconnected from the electricity supply at any
time. There must be no electrical sockets concealed behind the dishwasher
because the building-in niche may be too small, creating a risk of overheating
if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against the plug (fire hazard).
10
Warning and Safety instructions
The dishwasher must not be installed underneath a cooktop. The high
temperatures radiated by cooktops could damage the dishwasher below. For the
same reason, the dishwasher must not be installed next to open fires or other
appliances that give off heat, such as heaters etc. Ensure that the connection
data on the dishwasher’s data plate (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) match
the electricity supply to prevent damage to the dishwasher. Compare these
before connecting the appliance to the mains electricity. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician. Do not connect the dishwasher to the
electricity supply until it has been fully installed and any adjustment has
been made to the door springs. The dishwasher may only be operated if the door
opening mechanism is working correctly, as otherwise there could be a danger
when the automatic door opening is activated (depending on the model). To
check that the door opening mechanism is working correctly: – The door springs
must be evenly adjusted on both sides. They are
correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left half open
(approx. 45° opening angle). The door must not fall open on its own beyond
this point. – The door locking pin retracts automatically after the drying
phase when the door is opened. Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do
not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating). Do not connect the dishwasher to the electricity supply using a
multi-socket adapter or an extension cord. The dishwasher must not be
installed and operated in mobile locations (e.g. on a ship).
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of frost. Frozen
hoses can break or burst. The reliability of the electronic control unit may
be impaired at temperatures below freezing point. To avoid any damage to the
dishwasher, it must only be operated when it is connected to a fully vented
plumbing system. The plastic housing of the water connection contains an
electrical valve. The housing must not be dipped in water. There are live
wires in the water inlet hose. Do not cut the hose, even if it is too long.
The integrated water protection system offers protection from water damage,
provided the following conditions are met: – Installation has been carried out
correctly. – The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced
when they are visibly damaged. – The tap is turned off during longer absences
from the home (e.g.
whilst on holiday). The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher
is switched off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to the
electricity supply. The water connection pressure needs to be between 50 and
1,000 kPa. A damaged dishwasher could be dangerous. If the dishwasher gets
damaged, switch it off at the mains immediately and contact Miele customer
service. The manufacturer’s warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele authorised service technician. Defective components
must be replaced with original parts. If original Miele parts are installed
correctly, Miele ensures full compliance with safety requirements and the
warranty remains valid.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the dishwasher must be
disconnected from the electricity supply (switch it off and withdraw the plug
from the socket). If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be
replaced with a specific mains connection cable of the same type (available
Miele). For safety reasons, such replacement may only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician or by Miele in order to avoid a hazard. 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 warranty. Correct installation The
dishwasher must be installed and connected in accordance with the installation
instructions and the supplied installation plan.
Be careful before and while installing the dishwasher. Some metal parts pose a
risk of injury/cutting. Wear protective gloves. The dishwasher must be
correctly aligned horizontally to ensure trouble-free operation. In order to
ensure stability, built-under and integrated dishwashers must only be
installed under a continuous countertop which is secured to adjacent
cabinetry. The dishwasher must only be built into a tall unit if additional
safety precautions are taken. In order to safely install the appliance in a
tall unit, please use the “Tall unit installation kit” and observe the
installation plan provided. Otherwise there is the danger of the unit tipping
over.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
The door springs must be evenly adjusted on both sides. They are correctly
adjusted when the door remains stationary when left half open (approx. 45°
opening angle). The door must not fall open on its own beyond this point. The
appliance must only be operated with properly adjusted door springs. If the
door cannot be adjusted properly, contact Miele customer service. The maximum
weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the factory fitted door
springs is 1012 kg (depending on model). Correct use Do not use solvents in
the dishwasher. There is a danger of explosion. Do not inhale or ingest
dishwasher detergent. Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline and
contain irritants or corrosive ingredients. They can be extremely dangerous if
swallowed, and can cause burning in the eyes, nose, mouth, and throat, or
inhibit breathing. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Do not inhale powder
detergents. Do not swallow dishwasher detergents. Seek medical advice
immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled. Contact a Poisons
Information Centre (Australia) or the National Poisons Centre (NZ). Avoid
leaving the dishwasher door open unnecessarily. You could injure yourself on
the open door or trip over it. Do not sit, stand, or lean on the open door.
The dishwasher could tip over. This could injure you or damage the dishwasher.
Dishes may be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow the dishes to cool
until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading them. Only use
detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use
washing-up liquid.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use any commercial or industrial detergents. These may cause material
damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical reaction (such as
an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction). Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir
with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious damage to the rinse
aid reservoir. Do not fill the AutoDos (depending on model) with powder or
liquid detergent. Loose detergent will damage the AutoDos. Do not fill the
salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. Dishwasher detergent will
damage the water softener. Only use special coarse-grained dishwasher salt or
other pure evaporated salts for reactivation. Other types of salt (such as
cooking salt, rock salt, agricultural grade or gritting salt) may contain
insoluble components which can impair the functioning of the water softener.
In dishwashers with a cutlery basket (depending on model), knives and forks
should be placed with the handles upwards in the basket for safety reasons.
Knives and forks placed with the handles downwards pose a danger of injury.
However, cutlery placed handle down in the cutlery basket will come out
cleaner and drier. Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot
water, such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery, should not be
cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause
them to melt or lose shape. If you use the timer option (depending on model),
the detergent compartment must be dry. Wipe dry with a cloth first if
necessary. The detergent will clump together if the detergent compartment is
not dry, and it may not be fully rinsed out. Please observe the information
listed under Technical data regarding the capacity of the dishwasher.
15
Warning and Safety instructions Accessories and spare parts Only use original
Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance, and, if applicable, product liability claims will be
invalidated. Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10 years and up to 15 years following the discontinuation of your
dishwasher. Transport Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety.
Before using the dishwasher, check it for any visible transport damage. Never
use a damaged dishwasher. Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position
so that no water flows into the electrical controls, as this would cause
faults. If you wish to transport the dishwasher, empty it and securely fasten
all loose parts such as baskets, hoses and mains connection cables. Disposal
of your old dishwasher Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot
accidentally shut themselves in. Remove or destroy the locking bracket of the
door lock, and make appropriate arrangements for the disposal of the
appliance.

Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing
process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. 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.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to
human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or
if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old
appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.
22
Using for the first time
Every dishwasher is tested at the factory. There will be residual water in the
machine from this test. It is not an indication that the dishwasher has been
used previously.
Opening the door
In some programmes the door automatically opens slightly to assist the drying
process. This function can be deactivated, if preferred (see “Settings –
AutoOpen”).
At the end of the programme, if the AutoOpen function is on, the door locking
pins automatically retract.
To prevent a technical fault, do not hold the door locking pins firmly when
they are retracting.
If the door is opened during operation, all functions are automatically
interrupted.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water. During operation, water in the dishwasher may be very hot. 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.
To open the door, reach under the door grip and pull.
Open the door fully to disengage the locking mechanism.
Risk of injury due to door
opening automatically. The door may open automatically at the end of a
programme. Keep the area around the door free of obstructions.

can then only be opened by using a lot of force.
To lock the door, push the slide underneath the door grip to the right.
To unlock the door, push the slide to the left.
24
Using for the first time
Miele@home
Your dishwasher is equipped with an integrated Wi-Fi module. To use this
feature, you will need: – a Wi-Fi network – the Miele App – a Miele user
account. The user
account can be created via the Miele App. The Miele App will guide you as you
connect your dishwasher to your home Wi-Fi network. Once your dishwasher is
connected to your Wi-Fi network, you can use the App to carry out the
following tasks: – Control your dishwasher remotely – Call up information on
the operating status of your dishwasher – Call up information on the programme
sequence of your dishwasher Connecting the dishwasher to your WiFi network
will increase energy consumption, even when the dishwasher is switched off.
Make sure that your Wi-Fi network signal strength is strong enough at the
installation site of your dishwasher.
Availability of the Wi-Fi connection The Wi-Fi connection shares a frequency
range with other appliances (including microwave ovens and remote control
toys). This may result in sporadic or even complete connection failures.
Therefore, a constant availability of featured functions cannot be guaranteed.
Miele@home availability The ability to use the Miele App depends on the
availability of the Miele@home service in your country. The Miele@home service
is not available in every country. For information about availability, please
visit www.miele.com.
Miele App You can download the Miele App from the Apple App Store® or the
Google Play StoreTM free of charge (only functional in selected countries).

26
Using for the first time
Setting the water hardness The display will change to the screen for setting
the water hardness. – The dishwasher needs to be
programmed to the correct water hardness for 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 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 15
°dH – German scale), always programme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7
mmol/l or 15 °dH 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 The dishwasher is programmed at
the factory for a water hardness level of 0.36 mmol/l (2 °dH – German scale).
Set the water hardness level in your area and confirm with OK.
Activating AutoDos The display changes to the settings screen for AutoDos (see
“Detergents Automatic dispensing/AutoDos”).
Even if you do not wish to use AutoDos, you must remove the transport locking
device from the PowerDisk compartment before running the first programme (see
“Detergents – Activating AutoDos”).
You can activate AutoDos. If you do not wish to use AutoDos, you can manually
dispense the detergent via the detergent compartment (see “Detergents – Manual
detergent dispensing”). Select the setting you want and
confirm with OK. This setting applies to all programmes and can be changed at
any time using the AutoDos sensor.
See “Settings – Water hardness” for more information.
27
Using for the first time
Finally, prompts will appear in the display. After confirming these prompts
with OK, the messages Refill salt and Refill rinse aid may appear. Add salt
and rinse aid if necessary
(see “Using for the first time Dishwasher salt” and “Rinse aid”). Select OK to
confirm the messages. When a programme is selected, it will appear briefly in
the display and the relevant indicator light will come on. Next, the estimated
energy and water consumption may be shown for the selected programme for
several seconds. Finally, the display will show the estimated programme
duration for the programme selected.
28
Using for the first time
Dishwasher salt
In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate
with soft (low limescale) water. Hard water results in the build-up of calcium
deposits on crockery and in the appliance. Water with a hardness level higher
than 0.9 mmol/l (5 °dH German scale) must be softened. This occurs
automatically in the integrated water softener. The water softener is suitable
for a water hardness level of up to 12.5 mmol/l (70 °dH – German scale). The
water softener requires reactivation salt. Depending on the water hardness
level (< 3.8 mmol/l, or < 21 °dH German scale), dishwasher salt is not
required if combination detergents are being used (see “Detergents – Types of
detergents”).
If the water in your area is very soft and constantly lower than 0.9 mmol/l (5
°dH – German scale) you do not need to add dishwasher salt. The salt refill
indicator will automatically switch off after the water hardness has been set
accordingly (see “Settings – Water hardness”).
Damage to the water softener
from detergents. Dishwasher detergents will damage the water softener. Do not
fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
Damage caused by using
unsuitable salts. Other types of salt (such as cooking salt, rock salt,
agricultural grade or gritting salt) may contain insoluble components which
can impair the functioning of the water softener. Only use special coarse-
grained dishwasher salt or other pure evaporated salts for reactivation.
If you only ever use combination detergent products in your dishwasher, you can switch off both refill reminders if you wish (see “Settings – Refill reminders”). Please make sure that if you stop using combination detergents, you refill the dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch the refill reminders back on if required.
29
Using for the first time
Filling the salt reservoir Before filling the salt reservoir for the first
time, you must fill it with approx. 2 litres of water to enable the salt to
dissolve. Once the dishwasher has been used, there is always sufficient water
in the salt reservoir. Remove the lower basket from the
wash cabinet and unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Risk of corrosion due to saline
solution. Water or saline solution will run out of the reservoir when the cap
is opened. Saline solution that runs out can cause corrosion in the wash
cabinet and to the dishwasher load. The salt reservoir should therefore only
be opened to replenish the salt.
Fill the salt reservoir with approx. 2 l of water (first use only).
Place the funnel provided on the salt reservoir and carefully fill with
dishwasher salt until the reservoir is full. The salt reservoir holds up to 2
kg of salt, depending on the type of salt used.
Clean off salt residues from around the salt reservoir opening. Next, screw
the salt reservoir cap on again firmly.
Immediately after filling the salt container, run the 65 °C QuickPowerWash
programme with the Express option and without any load in the dishwasher to
dissolve and remove any traces of salt from the wash cabinet.
30
Replenishing salt When Refill salt appears in the
display wait until the end of the programme and then refill the salt
reservoir.
Confirm with OK. The salt refill indicator will go out.
Risk of corrosion due to saline
solution. Saline solution that runs out can cause corrosion in the wash
cabinet and to the dishwasher load. Each time you have opened the salt
reservoir lid, immediately run the 65 °C QuickPowerWash programme with the
Express option and without any dishes. This will dissolve and remove any
traces of salt from the wash cabinet.
Using for the first time
After the salt reservoir has been filled, the refill reminder may still appear
in the display if the salt concentration has not yet reached the correct
level. In this case, confirm with OK again. The salt refill indicator is
deactivated if the dishwasher is set to a water hardness below 0.9 mmol/l (5
°dH German scale).
31
Using for the first time
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water does not cling to and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase, and it helps crockery dry faster after it
has been washed. Rinse aid is poured into the storage reservoir and the amount
set is dispensed automatically.
Damage caused by washing-up
liquid or detergents. Dishwasher detergent will destroy the rinse aid
reservoir. Only fill rinse aid designed for domestic dishwashers into the
reservoir.
Alternatively, you can use liquid citric acid with up to 10% acid content. The
dishes will be more moist and stained than with rinse aid.
Damage caused by acids.
The dishwasher can be damaged by acids with a higher concentration. Never use
citric acid or vinegar with a higher acid content (e.g. vinegar essence 25%
acid).
If you only ever use combination detergent products in your dishwasher, you do not need to fill the rinse aid reservoir. However, the best rinsing and drying results will be achieved by using a detergent together with separate dishwasher salt and rinse aid. If you want to permanently use combination detergent products in your dishwasher, you can switch off the refill reminders for salt and rinse aid if you wish (see “Settings – Refill reminders”). Please make sure that if you stop using combination detergents, you refill the dishwasher salt and rinse aid. Switch the refill reminders back on if required.
32
Using for the first time
Adding rinse aid
Lift the yellow catch on the lid of the rinse aid container .
The lid will spring open.
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 – Rinse
aid”).
Refilling rinse aid When the Refill rinse aid message appears, the reservoir
only contains sufficient rinse aid for another 2 – 3 programmes. Add rinse aid
in good time. Confirm with OK. The refill rinse aid reminder will go out.
Only add rinse aid until the fill level indicator (see arrow) turns dark when
the door is open horizontally.
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.

authority will be able to advise you of the water hardness level in your area.
– Where the water hardness fluctuates, e.g. between 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 15
°dH – German scale), always programme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7
mmol/l or 15 °dH in this example).
If the water hardness in your area is available in a unit other than °dH, you
can convert the values as follows: 1 °dH = 0.18 mmol/l = 1.78°fH
Setting the water hardness Select the water hardness level in
your area and confirm with OK.

AutoDos (automatic dispensing)
Automatic dispensing automatically adjusts the amount of detergent to the
selected programme. In the Auto 45 65 °C programme, the quantity is adjusted
depending on the degree of soiling of the crockery. If you want to extend the
service life of the PowerDisk, you can reduce the dispensing quantity. The
programme’s cleaning performance may decrease as a result. If you want to
improve the cleaning performance, you can increase the dispensing quantity.
This reduces the service life of the PowerDisk.

Caring for the environment
Economical dishwashing
This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in its use of water and
electricity. You can support the economical operation of your appliance by
following these tips: – Washing in a dishwasher generally
uses less water and energy than washing dishes by hand. – Pre-rinsing dishes
under running water is not necessary and unnecessarily increases water and
energy consumption. – For the most economical dishwashing, make full use of
the basket capacity without overloading the dishwasher. This results in the
most economical use of the dishwasher in terms of energy and water
consumption. – Choose the programme to suit the type of crockery being washed
and the degree of soiling (see “Programme chart”). – Select the ECO programme
for energy-saving dishwashing. This programme is the most efficient in terms
of its combined energy and water consumption for cleaning dishes with a normal
level of soiling. – Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations on
detergent dosage. – When using powder or liquid detergent, you can use 1/3
less detergent if the baskets are only half full.
– You can connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply. A hot water connection is particularly suitable with energy-saving water heating sources, such as solar water heaters. If the water is heated by electricity, we recommend connection to cold water.
45
Caring for the environment
EcoFeedback consumption display
The “Consumption” function is used for calling up information about the energy
and water consumption of your dishwasher (see “Settings Consumption
(EcoFeedback)”). The following information can be viewed in the display: – An
estimate of the consumption
before the programme begins – The actual consumption at the end of
the programme – The total consumption of the
dishwasher to date
1. Consumption estimate After a programme has been selected, first the name
of the programme and after a few seconds the estimated energy consumption and
water consumption will appear in the display. The estimated consumption will
be shown as a bar chart. The more bars are shown ( ), the higher the energy or
water consumption. The values are influenced by the programme, any programme
options selected, the ambient conditions and the size of the load. The display
will change automatically from showing the estimated consumption to showing
the time remaining.
The estimated consumption function is activated as standard. It can be
deactivated, if preferred (see “Settings Consumption (EcoFeedback)”). 2.
Displaying consumption At the end of the programme, you can call up the actual
energy and water consumption for the programme that has just been run. Confirm
the message Consumption
(OK) with OK.
Switching the dishwasher off at the end of the programme will delete the
actual consumption values for the programme that has just been run.
3. Total consumption You can call up the total consumption of energy and
water for all programmes you have run on your dishwasher to date (see
“Settings – Consumption (EcoFeedback)”).

Loading the dishwasher
General information
Remove coarse food residues from crockery. There is no need to pre-rinse items
under running water.
Damage can be caused by ash,
sand, wax, lubricating grease, or paint. These substances will contaminate the
dishwasher and can then no longer be removed. Do not wash items soiled with
these substances in the dishwasher.
Dishes can be loaded anywhere in the baskets. However, please try to observe
the following notes: – Do not place dishes and utensils
inside other items where they will cover one another. – Load the crockery so
that water can access all surfaces. This ensures that they will get properly
cleaned. – Make sure that all items are securely positioned. – Hollow items
such as cups, glasses, and saucepans etc. must be inverted in the baskets. –
Tall and narrow, hollow items such as champagne glasses should be placed in
the centre of the basket rather than in the corners. This ensures the hollow
items are more easily accessed by the water jets. – 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 that are too tall or hang
through the baskets. 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 such as lids should therefore be placed in the cutlery tray or
cutlery basket (depending on model).
Some foods such as carrots, tomatoes, or tomato sauce may contain natural
dyes. These dyes can discolour plastic items in the dishwasher if large
quantities of these foods are in contact with the crockery inside the machine.
The stability of plastic items is not affected by this discolouration. Washing
silverware can also cause plastic items to discolour.
47
Loading the dishwasher
Items not suitable for washing in the dishwasher: – Wooden cutlery and
crockery or
items with wooden parts. These may discolour and fade. Furthermore, the glue
used in these items is not dishwasher safe. Wooden handles may come loose
after being washed in the dishwasher. – Craft items, antiques, valuable vases,
and decorative glassware. Such items are not suitable for dishwashers. –
Plastic items that are not heat resistant. The high temperatures in the
dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape. – Copper, brass, tin, and
aluminium items. These may discolour or become dull. – Colours painted over a
glaze. These may fade after a number of washes. – Delicate glassware and
glassware containing lead crystal. Clouding may occur over time. Silverware
Silver can discolour when in contact with foods containing sulphur. These
include egg yolk, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, fish brine, and
marinades. Silverware previously cleaned with a silver polish may still be
damp or spotted at the end of a programme, as water has not run off smoothly.
Useful tip: Rub the silverware dry with a cloth.
Damage due to caustic alkaline
detergents. Aluminium parts (e.g. the grease filters of rangehoods) can be
damaged by caustic alkaline detergents. In extreme cases, there is a risk of
an explosive chemical reaction (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas
reaction). Aluminium components must not be cleaned in the dishwasher with
caustic alkaline commercial or industrial detergents.
Useful tip: When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are
dishwasher safe if you want to wash them in the dishwasher.
Glass care – Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing in the dishwasher. When washing delicate glassware in the
dishwasher, select a special glass care programme with a low temperature (see
“Programme chart”). This will reduce the risk of clouding. – Purchase
glassware that is dishwasher safe (e.g. Riedel glassware). – Use detergents
with glass protective additives.

See “Loading the dishwasher Loading examples” for examples of how to load
crockery and cutlery. Load cutlery into the 3D MultiFlex tray
or the cutlery basket (depending on model).
Loading the 3D MultiFlex tray To make unloading easier, cutlery should be
grouped in zones: one for knives, one for forks, one for spoons, etc. Spoon
heads should be placed to rest on the serrated retainers on the base of the
tray to ensure that water runs off them freely.
You can push the left insert to the middle in order to accommodate tall items
and long stemmed glasses in the upper basket. You can put large and long
cutlery in the recessed centre part of the tray.
Arrange tall items (such as cake servers) so that they do not block the upper
spray arm. You can adjust the height of the righthand insert to create more
space in the right-hand part of the tray for larger cutlery items or smaller
pieces of crockery.
If spoon handles do not fit between the holders, lay them the other way round.
Pull the insert inwards by the yellow handle and click it into place in one of the two positions.
53
Loading the dishwasher
Loading the cutlery basket
The cutlery basket can be placed anywhere on the front rows of spikes in the
left or right corner of the lower basket. To avoid the risk of injury, knives
and
forks should be placed with the handles upwards in the cutlery basket.
However, cutlery placed handle down in the cutlery basket will come out
cleaner and drier. Place small items of cutlery in the individual slots on
three sides of the cutlery basket.
Loading the cutlery insert for the cutlery basket Use the insert supplied for
heavily soiled items of cutlery. As this insert separates the items, they do
not overlap and can be more easily accessed by the water jets.
Fit the insert onto the cutlery basket if required.
Place cutlery into the insert with the handles facing downwards.
Arrange them evenly along the insert.

Detergents
Types of detergents
Damage due to unsuitable
detergents. Detergents that are not suitable for domestic dishwashers can
cause damage to the dishwasher or to the load. Only use detergents formulated
for domestic dishwashers.
Modern detergents contain various active ingredients, the most important of
which are: – Water softening complexing agents
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 are mildly alkaline and contain enzymes and oxygen-based bleaching
agents.
There are different types of detergents: – Powder and liquid gel detergents.
These detergents allow you to adjust the amount dispensed according to the
size of the load and the level of soiling. – Tablet detergents. These are
suitable for most levels of soiling. As well as the usual detergents,
combination products are also available. These contain rinse aid and water
softener (reactivation salt). Only use these combination detergents for the
water hardness levels recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging. The
cleaning and drying performance of these combination detergents can vary
greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying results, use dishwasher detergent and add salt
and rinse aid separately.
68
Risk of chemical burns from
detergent. Dishwasher detergents can cause burning on the skin and in the
eyes, nose, mouth, and throat. Avoid contact with detergents. Do not inhale or
ingest powder detergents. Do not swallow dishwasher detergent. Seek medical
attention immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled. Keep
detergents out of reach of children. Detergent residues could still be present
in the machine. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open.
Do not fill the detergent dispenser until just before starting the programme
and activate the door safety lock (depending on model).
Detergents
Detergent dispensing
There are two ways of dispensing the detergent. During automatic dispensing,
the AutoDos function will automatically dispense the required amount of
detergent for each programme once a PowerDisk has been inserted (see
“Detergents – Automatic dispensing/ AutoDos”). If you do not wish to use
AutoDos, you can manually dispense the detergent into the detergent
compartment. This means you will have to fill the required amount of detergent
into the detergent compartment before each programme (see “Detergents – Manual
detergent dispensing”).
69
Detergents
Automatic dispensing/AutoDos
Before you can use AutoDos, you must insert a PowerDisk containing powder
detergent into the PowerDisk compartment. One PowerDisk contains enough
detergent for approx. 20 cycles, depending on the selected programme.
PowerDisks are available to order directly from the Miele online store or a
Miele Experience Centre.
Risk of chemical burns from
residual detergent. Detergents have a caustic effect. This can cause health
problems and damage to surfaces. If the AutoDos is used incorrectly or leaks,
residual detergent may drip onto the floor area in front of the dishwasher.
Always remove residual detergent from in front of the dishwasher immediately.
Activating AutoDos Switch the dishwasher on with the
button. Before you use AutoDos for the first
time, remove the transport lock from the PowerDisk compartment and dispose of
it appropriately. Insert a PowerDisk (see “Automatic dispensing/AutoDos –
Inserting a PowerDisk”). The AutoDos function will be activated automatically.
The message AutoDos activated will appear in the display. This setting applies
to all programmes and can be changed at any time using the AutoDos button.
If no programme is started for 48 hours, the PowerDisk will automatically be
rotated so that the detergent does not clump together. If this happens, the
message Powder refreshing will appear in the display when the dishwasher is
switched on. No detergent is dispensed during this refreshing process.
70
Inserting a PowerDisk Switch on the dishwasher before you replace the PowerDisk so that the dishwasher recognises it. Only replace the PowerDisk when the message PowerDisk empty. Deactivate AutoDos with OK. appears.
Detergents
Slide the yellow catch of the AutoDos lid to and open it.
The message AutoDos lid open will appear in the display. Remove the empty
PowerDisk.
If the arrows in the PowerDisk holder and in the viewing window are not
pointing towards each other, remove the PowerDisk holder (see “Cleaning and
care – Cleaning the AutoDos”).
Put the holder back into place so that the arrows point towards each other and
the holder lies flat. When doing this, only hold the PowerDisk holder by the
yellow tab in the middle. Do not hold it by the side tab.
Insert the new PowerDisk and press it evenly downwards until it sits flush.
71
Detergents
The detergent powder must be dry so that it does not clump together. Do not
fill the AutoDos with any type of liquid.
In order to ensure that the AutoDos works at its best, check it each time you
replace the PowerDisk and clean it if needed (see “Cleaning and care Cleaning
the AutoDos”).
Close the AutoDos lid and slide the yellow catch until it is aligned with the
symbol.
If the PowerDisk is not in the correct starting position, it will be rotated
automatically and the AutoDos function will be activated. Wait until this
process is finished before you start a programme.
The AutoDos lid must be closed to prevent damage to the AutoDos. Always close
the AutoDos lid before you close the dishwasher door. Otherwise, the AutoDos
may be damaged.
Programmes cannot start when the AutoDos lid is open.
72
Detergents
Manual detergent dispensing
Detergent must be manually dispensed if you have deactivated automatic
dispensing using the AutoDos sensor.
Adding detergent
Detergent dispensing The detergent compartment holds a maximum of 50 ml. There
are marks in the detergent compartment to aid with dispensing: 20, 30, max.
When the door is opened to a horizontal position, they show the approximate
fill level in ml and the maximum fill height. Follow the detergent dosage
recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging. Unless directed otherwise,
use one detergent tab or add 20 to 30 ml of detergent to the detergent
compartment, depending on the degree of soiling of the crockery. If you use
less than the recommended amount of detergent, the dishes may not get properly
clean. Some tabs may not dissolve completely when the programme QuickPowerWash
is used.
Lift the yellow catch on the lid of the detergent compartment .
The lid will open. The lid will also be open at the end of the programme.
Add the detergent to the detergent compartment.
Slide the lid shut until you hear it click into place.
73
Detergents
The detergent must not cause the detergent compartment lid to get stuck. This
can prevent the lid from opening during the programme sequence. Do not
overfill the detergent compartment.
Automatic dispensing/AutoDos should be deactivated if detergent is manually
dispensed.
Ensure that the detergent packaging is properly closed after use. This
prevents the detergent from getting damp and clumping together.
You can also apply a small amount of detergent to the inner panel of the door in programmes that have a prewash stage (see “Programme chart”).
74
Operation
Switching on the dishwasher
Make sure the spray arms can rotate freely.
Close the door. Turn on the tap if it is turned off. Press the button. When a
programme is selected, it will appear briefly in the display and the relevant
indicator light will come on. Next, the estimated energy and water consumption
may be shown for the selected programme for several seconds. Then the display
will show the estimated duration of the selected programme. The Start
indicator light will flash.
Selecting a programme
Choose your programme according to the type of crockery and the degree of
soiling. The different programmes and their use are described in the
“Programme chart”. Use the programme selection
button to select the programme you want. The indicator light for the selected
programme will come on. Further programmes can be selected under . Use the
programme selection button to select the option. The first of the further
programmes will appear in the display. Use the buttons in the display to
select the programme you want. You can now select programme options (see
“Programme options”). If any programme options are selected, the appropriate
indicator lights will also light up.
75
Operation
Display of programme duration
The estimated duration of the selected programme appears in the display before
the programme begins. During the programme, the time left until the end of the
programme is displayed. Each programme stage is indicated by a symbol:
Pre-wash/Soak Main wash Interim rinse Final rinse Drying Finish
The displayed duration may vary for the same programme. It is influenced by,
for example, the temperature of the incoming water, the reactivation cycle of
the water softener, the detergent type, and the amount of dishes and how
soiled they are. When a programme is selected for the first time, the display
will show the average programme duration for a cold water connection. The
programme durations shown in the “Programme chart” refer to standard test
loads and temperatures. Each time a programme is run, the control module
calculates the programme duration depending on the temperature of the water
taken into the dishwasher and the size of the load.
Starting a programme
Press the Start button. If necessary, confirm the previously displayed message
with OK.
The programme will start. The Start indicator light will come on.
During the programme sequence, you can use OK to display the name of the
programme that is currently running.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water. During operation, water in the dishwasher may be very hot. 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.
76
Operation
At the end of the programme
The programme has finished when the display shows the message Finished. In
some programmes, if the AutoOpen function is activated, the door will
automatically open slightly (see “Settings AutoOpen”). This improves the
drying process. If the Consumption programmable function is switched on, you
can now call up the actual energy and water consumption of the programme that
has just finished (see “Caring for the environment EcoFeedback consumption
display”).
The drying fan may continue to run for a few minutes at the end of the
programme.
Risk of damage due to steam.
Steam from the dishwasher could damage the edges of delicate worktops when you
open the door at the end of the programme if the fan is no longer running. If
you have deactivated the automatic door opening function (see “Settings
AutoOpen”), but would still like to open the door at the end of the programme,
then make sure that you open the door fully.
Energy management
To save energy, the dishwasher will switch off automatically 10 minutes after
the last time a button is pressed or after the end of a programme. You can
switch the dishwasher back on with the button.
The dishwasher will not switch itself off while a programme is running or if
there is a fault.
77
Operation
Switching off the dishwasher
The dishwasher can be switched off at any time using the button.
Confirm the query Switch off with OK. Switching the dishwasher off during a
programme cancels the programme.
You can also do this to stop an ongoing timer.
Risk of damage from leaking
water. Overflowing water can cause damage. If the dishwasher is not going to
be used for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday, the tap 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. The
dishes will cool much faster if you open the door when the programme has
ended. First unload the lower basket, then
the upper basket, and finally the 3D MultiFlex tray. This will prevent water
drops from the upper basket and 3D MultiFlex tray from falling onto the dishes
in the lower basket.
78
Operation
Interrupting a programme
A programme will be 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.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water. During operation, water in the dishwasher may be very hot. 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.
Cancelling or changing a programme
If a programme is cancelled, important programme stages may be missed. A
programme should only be cancelled in the first few minutes of the programme
sequence.
If a programme has already started and you wish to cancel it, proceed as
follows: Switch the dishwasher off with the
button. Confirm the query Switch off with OK. If you would like to select
another programme: Switch the dishwasher back on with
the button. If you have dispensed detergent
manually, check whether the detergent compartment is still closed. If the lid
is already open, fill it with detergent again and close the lid. Select the
programme you want, and then start it.
79
Options
Timer
You can set the start time of a programme. The programme start time can be
delayed for between 30 minutes and 24 hours. With a start time delay between
30 minutes and 3 hours, the delay can be set in 30-minute increments. It is
set in hours for periods longer than this.
With manual detergent dispensing, the detergent can clump together if the
detergent compartment is not dry, and it may not be fully rinsed out. When
using the timer function, make sure that the detergent compartment is dry
before adding detergent. Wipe it dry with a cloth first if necessary. Do not
use liquid detergents. These can leak out.
Danger to health due to
detergent. To prevent children coming into contact with dishwasher detergent:
Do not fill the detergent dispenser until just before starting the programme,
i.e. before you activate the timer. Use the safety lock to secure the
dishwasher door.

PowerWash 60 °C Programme for cleaning a mixed load with fresh food deposits
which have begun to dry on.
ExtraQuiet 55 °C Very quiet programme with longer duration. This programme is
suitable for a mixed load with lightly dried on food deposits.
Maintenance programme The dishwasher wash cabinet is generally self-cleaning. However, if residues or deposits occur, use the Maintenance programme to clean it. The dishwasher must not be loaded for this programme. This programme is designed for cleaning the wash cabinet using care products (dishwasher cleaner/dishwasher conditioner) (see “Optional accessories – Appliance care”). Follow the instructions on the packaging. When using dishwasher care products, no detergent should be added. For this reason, automatic dispensing (if available) is deactivated for this programme.
86
Programme options
Selecting programme options
You can use programme options to adjust the programmes. To do this, you can
select the programme options before starting the programme. Switch the
dishwasher on with the
button. The Start indicator light will flash. Select a programme as required.
Press the button for the programme
option you want. The indicator light for the relevant button will come on when
the programme option is selected. If the programme option is not compatible
with the selected programme, a message to this effect will appear in the
display. In this event, confirm the message
with OK. The selected programme option will remain active for that particular
programme until the selection is changed.
Express The Express programme option reduces the programme duration. In order
to achieve optimum cleaning results, the temperature, and therefore the energy
consumption, will increase with this option. The time by which the programme
duration is shortened varies according to the selected programme. Selecting
the Express programme option may take precedence over other selected options.
When used in combination with the QuickPowerWash programme, the Express
programme option results in a rinse designed solely for the purpose of
flushing out the wash cabinet to remove salt solution that leaked out after
refilling the salt reservoir.
87
Cleaning and care
Check the condition of your dishwasher regularly (approx. every 46 months).
This way, faults and problems can be avoided.
Damage caused by unsuitable
cleaning agents. All surfaces of this appliance are susceptible to scratching.
Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour all surfaces.
Only use cleaning agents formulated for use on the relevant surfaces.
Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely selfcleaning, provided that the correct amount of
detergent is always used. The frequent use of low-temperature wash programmes
(< 50 °C) increases the risk of contamination and odours inside the wash
cabinet. Run the Intensive 75 °C programme once a month to clean the wash
cabinet and prevent odours from developing. However, if residues such as
limescale or grease have been deposited, use the Maintenance programme to
clean the dishwasher (see “Programme chart Further programmes”) with
dishwasher cleaner (see “Optional accessories Maintenance”). Follow the
instructions on the product packaging. Miele cleaning and care products are
available to order from Miele Service or from Miele’s online store. Clean the
filters in the wash cabinet
regularly.
Hygiene cycle
If you mainly use low temperature programmes, there is a risk of bacteria and
unpleasant odours building up in the wash cabinet. If you repeatedly use low
temperature programmes, you should regularly run a high temperature programme.
This is to prevent the buildup of residues and odours. You can activate or
deactivate a Hygiene info message (see “Settings Hygiene cycle”). If you
deactivate this message, run the Intensive 75 °C programme once per month to
clean the wash cabinet and prevent odours from developing.
88
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the door and the door seal
The door seal and the sides of the dishwasher door are not accessed and
cleaned by the spray arm jets. As a result, mould can develop here. 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 the dishwasher door before closing
it.
Cleaning the control panel
The control panel should only be wiped with a damp cloth.
Cleaning the appliance front
Damage due to soiling.
Soiling that is left too long might become impossible to remove and could
cause the external surfaces to alter or discolour. It is therefore best to
remove any soiling immediately.
To avoid damaging the external surfaces, do not use the following: – 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 cleaners – oven cleaners or sprays – glass
cleaning agents – hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes, or sponges which have been previously used with
abrasive cleaning agents – dirt eraser sponges – sharp metal scrapers – steel
wool or metal scourers – steam cleaners
Clean the front with a soft sponge and a solution of warm water and a little washing-up liquid. After cleaning, wipe the front dry using a soft cloth. A clean, damp microfibre cloth (such as the Original Miele all purpose microfibre cloth) without detergent can also be used.
89
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the AutoDos
You should check that the detergent fill channel is clean every time you
replace the PowerDisk, and clean it if necessary, e.g. powder residues. This
should be done at the latest when the Clean AutoDos message is displayed. This
helps keep the AutoDos working properly. In order to ensure that the AutoDos
works at its best, check it each time you replace the PowerDisk and clean it
if needed.
Slide the yellow catch of the AutoDos lid to and open it.
Remove the PowerDisk if applicable.
Pull the PowerDisk holder upwards by the yellow tabs and remove it. When doing so, do not pull on the side tab.

PowerDisk into the wash cabinet
Use the tab (see arrow) to release the fill channel and pull it out .
90
Cleaning and care
Clean the fill channel with water and a soft brush if necessary. It is very
important that no moisture gets inside the AutoDos system during cleaning.
Dry the fill channel well so that the detergent powder does not clump
together.
Insert the fill channel until the tab clicks into place.
The AutoDos lid must close tightly so that the detergent powder does not get
wet and clump together. Make sure that all seals are clean.
Insert a PowerDisk. Close the AutoDos lid and slide the
yellow catch until it is aligned with the symbol (see “Detergents Inserting a
PowerDisk”).
Regularly check the lower spray arm for any blockages to ensure that the
detergent outlet of the AutoDos can be fully flushed out (see “Cleaning and
care – Cleaning the spray arms”).
Put the holder back into place so that the arrows in the PowerDisk holder and in the viewing window point towards each other. The holder must lie flat.
91
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the spray arms
Particles of food can get stuck in the spray arm jets and bearings. The spray
arms should therefore be inspected regularly (approx. every 24 months).
Never run a wash programme without using the spray arms.
Removing the cutlery tray (if present) In order to be able to remove the upper spray arm, you first have to remove the cutlery tray (if present). Pull out the cutlery tray.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system. Without filters, soiling can enter the circulation
system and cause a blockage. Do not run a wash programme without the lower
spray arm or without the filters fitted. When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling cannot get into the circulation system.
Switch the dishwasher off.
Press the rail safety clips on both sides of the cutlery tray together and
remove the safety clips .

combination. Without filters, coarse soiling can enter the circulation system
and cause a blockage. Do not run a wash programme without the lower spray arm
or without the filters fitted.
94
Cleaning and care
Checking the filters in the wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse soiling
from the suds solution. This prevents soiling getting into the circulation
system and re-entering the wash cabinet through the spray arms.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system. Without filters, soiling can enter the circulation
system and cause a blockage. Do not run a wash programme without the lower
spray arm or without the filters fitted. When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling cannot get into the circulation system.
Cleaning the filters
Switch the dishwasher off. Remove the lower spray arm (see
“Cleaning and care – Cleaning the spray arms”). Before removing the filter
combination, remove any coarse soiling to prevent it from entering the
circulation system.
The filters can become clogged by soiling that collects over time. The level
of soiling and the 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 sequences. Check the filter combination. Clean the filter
combination if
necessary. Then confirm the message with OK.
Remove the filter combination.

or without the filters fitted.
96
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw thread to protect the water inlet valve.
If the filter is soiled, insufficient water flows into the wash cabinet.
Risk of electric shock.
The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical valve. The
housing must not be dipped in water.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply. To do this, switch off at the
socket and withdraw the plug.
Turn off the tap. Unscrew the water inlet valve.
Carefully remove the seal from the threaded union.
Using combination or pointed pliers, take hold of the plastic filter bar and
remove the filter.
Rinse the filter under running water. Reassemble in reverse order.
Screw the threaded union securely back onto the tap. Slowly turn on the tap. If water drips out, tighten the connection.
Never forget to put the filter back in place after cleaning.
97
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the drain pump
If water remains in the wash cabinet after the end of a programme, the water
has not been pumped away. The drain pump may be blocked by foreign objects.
These foreign objects are easy to remove. Disconnect the dishwasher from the
power supply. To do this, switch off at the socket and withdraw the plug. Take
the filter combination out of the wash cabinet (see “Cleaning and care –
Cleaning the filters”). Scoop the water out of the wash cabinet using a
suitable container or utensil.
Press the catch of the drain pump cover inwards .
Tip the cover inwards until it is released .
Rinse the cover thoroughly under running water and remove all foreign objects.

care when cleaning the drain pump.
The drain pump (see arrow) is underneath the cover.
Risk of injury from glass
splinters. It is especially difficult to see glass splinters in the drain
pump. Take care when cleaning the drain pump. Carefully remove all foreign
objects from the drain pump. Check the drain pump impeller by manually turning
it. You will feel a little resistance when you turn the impeller. Refit the
cover in the reverse order of removing it. Ensure that the catch engages
correctly.

Noises
Problem Knocking noise in the wash cabinet. Rattling noise in the wash
cabinet.
Knocking noise in the water pipes
Problem solving guide
Possible cause and remedy A spray arm is knocking against a crockery piece.
Carefully open the door and rearrange the wash
items that are obstructing the spray arm. Items of crockery are not secure in
the wash cabinet. Carefully open the door and rearrange the wash
items so that they sit securely. There is a foreign object (e.g. glass shard)
in the drain pump. Remove the foreign object from the drain pump
(see “Cleaning and care – Cleaning the drain pump”). This may be caused by the
on-site installation or the cross-section of the piping. However, this will
not affect the functioning of the dishwasher in any way. If in doubt, contact
a suitably qualified plumber.

Problem solving guide
Unsatisfactory cleaning result
Problem The dishes are not clean.
There are smears on glassware and cutlery. There is a bluish sheen on the
surface of glassware. The film can be wiped off.
Possible cause and remedy
The items were not loaded correctly. See notes under “Loading the dishwasher”.
The programme was not thorough enough. Select a more intensive programme (see
“Programme chart”). Activate the “Extra clean” function (see “Settings
Extra clean”). Activate the “Second interim rinse” function (see
“Settings – 2nd interim rinse”).
Not enough detergent was dispensed. Use more detergent during manual
dispensing or
change the detergent you are using. Increase the dispensing quantity during
automatic
dispensing (if available) (see “Settings AutoDos”).
Items are blocking the path of the spray arms. Carry out a rotation check and
if needed rearrange
the items so that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The filter combination in the base of the wash cabinet is not clean or not
correctly fitted. This may have caused the spray arm jets to become blocked.
Clean and/or fit the filter combination correctly. Clean the spray arm jets if
necessary (see
“Cleaning and care – Cleaning the spray arms”).
The rinse aid dosage is set too high. Reduce the dosage (see “Settings – Rinse
aid”).

Problem solving guide
Problem Dishes are not dry or cutlery and glasses are blotchy.
Glassware has a brown or blue tinge. The film cannot be wiped off. Glassware
is dull and discoloured. The film cannot be wiped off. Tea or lipstick stains
have not been completely removed. Plastic items are discoloured.
Possible cause and remedy
The amount of rinse aid may be insufficient, or the rinse aid reservoir is
empty. Replenish the rinse aid, increase the dosage, or
change the brand of rinse aid (see “Using for the first time – Rinse aid”).
Dishes were taken out of the wash cabinet too soon. Leave dishes in longer
(see “Operation – Unloading
the dishwasher”).
The duration of the drying phase for the selected programme is not sufficient
for the crockery (particularly for plastic crockery). Select the “Extra dry”
function (see “Settings –
Extra dry”).
You have used combination products that have insufficient drying performance.
Switch to another detergent or add rinse aid (see
“Using for the first time – Rinse aid”).
Ingredients from the detergent have formed a deposit. Switch to another
detergent straight away.
The glassware is not dishwasher safe. The surface has altered. There is no
remedy.
Purchase glassware which is dishwasher safe.
The wash temperature of the selected programme was too low. Select a programme
with a higher wash
temperature.
The bleaching effect of the detergent is too low. Change your detergent.
Natural dyes, e.g. from carrots, tomatoes or tomato sauce may be the cause.
The amount of detergent used or its bleaching effect was not sufficient to
deal with natural dyes. Use more detergent (see “Detergents”).
Parts that are already discoloured will not revert to their original colour.
111
Problem solving guide
Problem White residue is visible on the dishware. Clouding has occurred on glassware and cutlery. The film can be wiped off.
Possible cause and remedy
Not enough rinse aid was added. Increase the dosage (see “Settings Rinse
aid”).
The salt reservoir is empty. Fill the salt reservoir (see “Using for the first
time –
Dishwasher salt”).
The salt reservoir cap has not been screwed on correctly. Replace it, making
sure that it screws back on
correctly.
Unsuitable combination detergents were used. Change your detergent. If using
tabs or powder
detergent, do not choose combination products and ensure you refill the
reactivation salt and rinse aid.
The water softener is programmed to a setting which is too low for the water
hardness level. Programme the water softener to a higher water
hardness level (see “Settings – Water hardness”).
Too much detergent was dispensed. Reduce the dispensing quantity during
automatic
dispensing (if available) (see “Settings AutoDos”). Activate the “Second
interim rinse” function (see
“Settings – 2nd interim rinse”).
Not enough combination detergent was dispensed. The water softener performance
is not sufficient. Increase the dispensing quantity during automatic
dispensing (if available) (see “Settings AutoDos”). Add more reactivation
salt.
112
Problem solving guide
Problem There are rust stains on cutlery.
Possible cause and remedy
The affected items are not corrosion resistant. There is no remedy.
Purchase cutlery which is dishwasher safe.
A programme was not run after dishwasher salt was added. Traces of salt have
gotten into the normal wash cycle. Always run the 65 °C QuickPowerWash
programme with the Express option selected and without any load in the
dishwasher immediately after adding dishwasher salt.
The salt reservoir cap has not been screwed on correctly. Replace it, making
sure that it screws back on
correctly.

The Miele Waterproof system
Provided that your dishwasher has been installed correctly, the Miele
Waterproof system will protect you from water damage throughout its lifetime.
Water intake
Danger to health due to rinsing
water. Water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking water. Do not
drink any water from the dishwasher.
Health risk and risk of damage
due to contaminated mains water. The quality of the water used must correspond
to the drinking water specification of the country in which the dishwasher is
being operated. Connect the dishwasher to a drinking water supply.
The dishwasher may be connected to cold or hot water (up to max. 60 °C). If energy-saving water heating sources, such as a solar water heating system, are used, we recommend connecting to the hot water. This saves both time and electricity costs. Hot water is used in all programmes. The SolarSave programme (if available) requires a hot water connection of between a minimum of 45 °C and a maximum of 60 °C (inlet temperature). The higher the water intake temperature, the better the cleaning and drying results. The intake hose is approx. 1.5 m long.
