Correct use

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
offices, lunch rooms, clubhouses, workshops, large kitchens and
similar professional environments.
It is also suitable for use in domestic households and in similar
residential environments; for example, by customers in hotels,
motels, bed and breakfasts and other related establishments.
 The dishwasher is subsequently referred to as a dishwasher in
these operating instructions.
Glasses, cutlery and crockery are referred to generally as crockery
when not more specifically defined.
 The term “process chemicals” refers to all chemical agents
required for reprocessing the load items.
 This dishwasher is not intended for continuous use.
 This dishwasher may not be used to clean medical products or
devices.
 This machine is designed exclusively for use as a “dishwasher” for
cleaning loads as described in these instructions. Conversions,
modifications and any other use are not permitted.
 This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only.

Correct use
10
 The special inserts should only be used for their specific
application.
 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.
 This dishwasher is supplied with a special lamp (depending on the
model) to cope with particular conditions (e.g. in terms of
temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and
vibration). This lamp must only be used for the purpose for which it
is intended. The lamp is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement
lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised technician or by the
Miele Customer Service Department.
This dishwasher contains several light sources in energy efficiency
class D.
The lighting control element is integrated into the appliance control
and cannot be removed separately. As a result, electricity
consumption cannot be measured separately.
