Warning and Safety instructions
7
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 non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep the installation sheet and the operating instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any future owner.

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.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
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 look 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).

Warning and Safety instructions
10
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, 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).
 Reliable and safe operation of the dishwasher can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 The dishwasher must only be connected to the electricity supply
via a suitable switched socket. 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).
 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
 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 pins retract 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).
 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
 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.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when original
Miele parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by
original spare parts.
 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 be replaced
with a special cable of the same type (available from Miele) by a
Miele authorised service technician only in order to avoid a hazard.

Warning and Safety instructions
13
 This dishwasher is supplied with a special lamp (depending on the
model) to cope with particular conditions (e.g. temperature,
moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, and vibration).
This special lamp must only be used for the purpose for which it is
intended. It is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may
only be installed by a Miele authorised technician.
 In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which
may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered
by the 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
14
 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 10–12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.

Warning and Safety instructions
15
 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
16
Accessories
 Only use original Miele accessories. Using spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty,
and Miele cannot accept liability.
Transport
 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 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
20
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.
