Correct application
8
This commercial dishwasher complies with all current local and
national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead
to personal injury and material damage.
Read the operating instructions carefully before using the
commercial dishwasher for the first time. They contain important
information on the safety, use and maintenance of the machine.
This way you will prevent the risk of accidents and damage to the
commercial dishwasher. Keep these operating instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any future owner.
 This dishwasher with its short programme running times and
powerful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in
– restaurants
– guest houses
– hotels
– active kitchens
– and other similar commercial environments.
 This machine is designed exclusively for use as a “dishwasher” for
cleaning loads as described in these instructions. Alterations or
conversions to the machine, or using it for purposes other than those
for which it was designed, are not permitted and could be dangerous.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or
improper use or operation.
 This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.
 The special inserts should only be used for their specific
application.
 This dishwasher is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical
products or devices.
 This dishwasher can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown
how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the
consequences of incorrect operation.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
Correct installation
 Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of
explosion or freezing conditions.
 To ensure stability a built-under dishwasher must only be installed
beneath a continuous worktop that is bolted to the adjacent
cabinetry.
 In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the
furniture in the surrounding area around the dishwasher should be
suitably designed.
Technical safety
 This dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired
and maintained by Miele Professional Service or a suitably qualified
service technician. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
 This dishwasher must only be operated by appropriately trained
personnel. They must be instructed and trained regularly.
 Before using the dishwasher, check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not use a damaged dishwasher. This could be
dangerous.
 In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the
power supply immediately and call the Miele Customer Service
Department, a Miele dealer or a suitably qualified service technician.
 Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele
original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele
guarantee the correct functioning and safety of the appliance.
 The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed when
correctly earthed. If in any doubt, please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held
liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g.
electric shock).
 Please follow the advice on installation in these instructions and
the separate Installation diagram.
 Before connecting the appliance, ensure that the connection data
on the data plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rating) match the
mains electrical supply.
 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. See “Electrical connection”.
 Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply via a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the machine (e.g. danger of overheating).

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 Warning. Do not open the casing of the dishwasher. Any contact
with live connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical
components of the dishwasher will endanger your safety and may
lead to machine malfunctions.
 The dishwasher must not be used if the electrical connection cable
is damaged. A damaged connection cable may only be replaced by a
suitable connection cable of the same type. For safety reasons, such
replacement may only be carried out by the Miele Customer Service
Department or a qualified service technician.
 The dishwasher must be disconnected from the mains electricity
supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
 The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical
components. It must not be dipped in water.
 There are electrical wires in the water inlet hose. Do not shorten
the water inlet hose, even if it is too long.
 The integrated Waterproof system offers protection from water
damage, provided that the following conditions are met:
– Installation has been carried out correctly.
– The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced
where it can be seen that this is necessary.
– The stopcocks have been turned off during longer periods of
inactivity (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.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
Correct use
 This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and cleaning
agents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Organic
solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used in it.
This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic components
in the dishwasher and cause liquids to leak out of it.
 Unsuitable cleaning agents could adversely affect components of
the dishwasher or the items being cleaned.
 Do not sit, stand or lean on the opened door. This would tip or
damage the dishwasher.
 After any plumbing work the water pipework to the dishwasher will
need to be vented. If this is not done, components can be damaged.
 Please be aware that the dishwasher may be operating at high
temperatures. When the door is opened there is a danger of burning
or scalding. Items, baskets and inserts must be allowed to cool down
before they are unloaded. Any water remaining in containers could
still be very hot. Empty them into the wash chamber before taking
them out.
 The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.
 Pre-treating items (for example with washing-up liquid and other
cleaning agents) as well as some types of soiling and some cleaning
agents can cause a build-up of foam in the wash cabinet. Foam can
have an adverse effect on the cleaning result.
 Foam escaping from the wash cabinet can cause damage to the
dishwasher. If foam escapes the programme must be cancelled
immediately and the machine must be disconnected from the mains
electrical supply.
 When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is
essential that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Cleaning
agents must only be used for the purpose they are designed for by
the manufacturer to avoid any material damage or the occurrence of
strong chemical reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).
 Do not inhale or ingest powder cleaning agent. Dishwasher
cleaning agents 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 cleaning agent has
been swallowed or inhaled.
 Miele cannot be held liable for any effect chemical cleaning agents
may have on the material of the items being cleaned. Observe the
cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions with regard to storage
conditions, use and dosage.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
 To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or
solutions containing chlorides or metals which are not rust-proof to
get into the wash cabinet.
 Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease
or paint in the dishwasher. These materials will cause damage to the
dishwasher.
 Do not clean the dishwasher or near vicinity with a hose or a
pressure washer.
 Ensure that the outer casing of the machine does not come into
contact with solutions or steam containing acid to avoid any
corrosion damage.
 Be careful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and
positioning them in the dishwasher that you do not hurt yourself or
create a danger for others. Sharp knives, forks, etc. should be placed
in baskets with the pointed ends facing downwards.
 Remove any coarse food deposits and empty out any containers
or utensils before loading them in the dishwasher.
Safety with children
 Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the dishwasher.
Never allow children to play with the machine. There is a danger that
children might shut themselves in the dishwasher.
 Children must not be allowed to operate this dishwasher.
 Keep children away from chemical agents. These contain irritant
and corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the mouth, or
inhibit breathing. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be residual chemical agent in the wash
cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately if a child has swallowed or
inhaled chemical agent.
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.
 Only use Miele baskets and inserts with this dishwasher. Using
baskets and inserts made by other manufacturers, or making
modifications to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning
results, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage
would not be covered by the guarantee.

Danger of electric shock
Disposal of your old dishwasher
 For safety and environmental reasons, dispose of all chemical
agents according to the manufacturer's instructions and to safety
regulations. Safety goggles and protective gloves should be worn.
 Remove or disable the door lock prior to disposal of the
dishwasher, so that children cannot become trapped inside (see
“Caring for the environment”).
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Caring for the environment
14
Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage
during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected
from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and
should 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.
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, or contact
your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law,
depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your
old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to
disposal.
