Correct application
8
Correct application
This dishwasher complies with current safety requirements. Inap‐
propriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to
property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the dishwasher,
please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first
time. They contain important information on its safety, installation,
use and maintenance. Keep these instructions in a safe place and
pass them on to any future owner.
This dishwasher with its short programme running times and pow‐
erful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in
– Hotels and restaurants
– Child care facilities
– Nursing homes
– and other similar commercial environments.
This appliance is designed exclusively for use as a "dishwasher"
for cleaning crockery, glassware and cutlery only, as described in
these instructions. Alterations or conversions to the dishwasher, or
using it for purposes other than those for which it is designed, are not
permitted and could be dangerous.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by improper or incor‐
rect use or operation.
This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.
The special inserts should only be used for their specific applica‐
tion.
This dishwasher is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical
products or devices.
This dishwasher can only be used by people with reduced physi‐
cal, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowl‐
edge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how
to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequen‐
ces of incorrect operation.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
Correct installation
Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of ex‐
plosion or freezing conditions.
To ensure the stability of built-under dishwashers, they must only
be installed beneath a continuous worktop that is bolted to the adja‐
cent cabinetry.
In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the furni‐
ture in the area around the dishwasher should be designed for com‐
mercial use.
Technical safety
This dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired
and then maintained by the Miele Professional Service Department or
an authorised Miele Service dealer. Installation, repair and other work
by unqualified persons could be dangerous and Miele will not be held
liable.
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. Under no circumstances should you use it if it has been
damaged. It could be dangerous.
In the event of a damaged or leaking dishwasher, switch off at the
mains immediately and call the Miele Professional Service Depart‐
ment or an authorised Miele Service dealer.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele origi‐
nal spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guarantee
the safety standards of the appliance.
The electrical safety of this dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re‐
quirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installa‐
tion 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").

Warning and Safety instructions
10
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the re‐
quired safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not open the dishwasher casing. Tampering with electrical con‐
nections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to
the user and can cause operational faults.
The dishwasher must not be used if the electrical connection cable
is damaged. If the cable is damaged it must be replaced with a spe‐
cial cable available from Miele. For safety reasons this must only be
done by the Miele Professional Service Department or an authorised
Miele Service dealer.
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 the following conditions are met:
– installation has been carried out correctly,
– the dishwasher is properly maintained and parts replaced where it
can be seen that this is necessary,
– the tap has been turned off during longer periods of inactivity (e.g.
whilst on holiday).
The Waterproof system will work even if the dishwasher is switched
off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to the electrici‐
ty 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 sol‐
vents 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.
Only use cleaning agents formulated for use in commercial dish‐
washers. Using unsuitable cleaning agents could adversely affect
components in the dishwasher, as well as items being cleaned.
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dish‐
washer to tip up and be damaged or cause an injury.
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. If the door is opened there is a danger of burning or
scalding. Crockery, cutlery, baskets and inserts must be allowed to
cool down before they are unloaded. Any water remaining in contain‐
ers could still be very hot. Empty them into the wash cabinet 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 im‐
mediately.
When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is essen‐
tial that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Cleaning agents
must only be used for the purpose they are designed for and in the
situation specified, to avoid such dangers as serious chemical reac‐
tions and material damage (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).
Do not inhale or ingest powder cleaning agent. Dishwasher clean‐
ing agents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause
burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breath‐
ing. 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 chloride to get into the wash cabinet. Similarly
avoid any materials with a corrosive effect.
Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, grease or paint in
the dishwasher. These substances could damage the dishwasher.
Do not hose the dishwasher or near vicinity down to clean it, e.g.
with a hosepipe or a pressure washer.
Ensure that the stainless steel outer casing of the appliance 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 posi‐
tioning 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.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could
present a tripping hazard.
Safety with children
Supervise children when they are anywhere near this dishwasher.
Do not let them play with it. There is a danger that children playing
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,
nose and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Keep children away
from the dishwasher when the door is open. There could still be re‐
sidual chemical agent in the cabinet. Seek medical advice immediate‐
ly 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 manu‐
facturers will invalidate the guarantee and Miele cannot accept liabili‐
ty.
Only use Miele baskets and inserts with this dishwasher. Using
baskets and inserts made by other manufacturers, or making modifi‐
cations to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning re‐
sults, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage
would not be covered by the guarantee.

Disposal of your old dishwasher
For safety and environmental reasons, dispose of all process
chemicals 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 dishwash‐
er, 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 dishwasher 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 man‐
ufacturing 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.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials.
They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incor‐
rectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the en‐
vironment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of
your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your house‐
hold waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recy‐
cling centre or contact your Dealer for advice.
Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for
disposal.
