and

incorporate
disinfection
programmes
which
subscribe
to
regulations
issued
by
the
Robert
Koch
Institute
(RKI)
and
the
Association
for
Applied
Hygiene
(VAH).
The
precise
designations
of
programmes
are
listed
in
Ap
pendix
A.
These
strict
requirements
refer,
inter
alia,
to the
maintenance
of
temperatures
in
the
wash
liquor
during
the
disinfection
phase.
These
machines
guarantee
that
selected
temperatures
are
maintained
for
the
time
specified
in
the
relevant
programmes.
In
disinfection
program
mes,
in
particular,
temperatures
are
maintained
with
tightly
controlled
hysteresis
above
the
selected
value
in
order
to
prevent
any
drop
in
temperature
below
the
target
temperature.
These
machines
also
include
further
safety
functions
to
ensure
proper
disinfection
or
to
inform
users
if
disinfection
has
not
been
achieved:
•
Programme
lock:
The
machine
door
can
only
be
opened
at
the
end
of
a
wash
cycle.
•
If,
due
to
an
error,
the
temperature
is
not
maintained,
the
Programme
is
aborted
and
an
error
message
issued.
•
When
a
dispensing
System
with
level
sensing
is
connected,
an
empty
Container
results
in
an
aborted
Programme
and
an
appropriate
error
message.
•
No
further
water
intake
via
detergent
dispenser
after
disinfection
phase.
All
Claims
relating
to
safe
hygienic
disinfection
apply
exclusively
to
official
and
unmodified
Miele
wash
programmes
under
the
presumption
that
all
guidance
contained
in
operating
instructions
are
fully
complied
with.
Alongside
technical
specifications,
reliable
hygiene
also
requires
that
the
following
is
ensured
by
the
operator
or
the
machine's
owner:
When
using
chemo-thermal
disinfection
methods:
•
Use
of
a
disinfecting
detergent
suitable
for
disinfection
•
Compliance
with
instructions
issued
by
detergent/disinfeetant
manufacturer,
in
particular
relating
to
load-to-liquor
ratios,
in
order
to
ensure
the
correct
amount
of
detergent
is
dispensed
Chemo-thermal
disinfection
programmes
are
set
to
a
load-to-liquor
ratio
of
approx.
1
:5
for
a
nominal
load
with
average
absorbency.
A
load-to-liquor
ratio
of
approx.
1
:4
to
1
:5
applies
to
thermal
disinfection
programmes.
