User Maintenance Instructions To prevent accidents and appliance damage, read these instructions before installation or use.
Cleaning and Care Exterior Check and clean your dishwasher regularly. This will help avoid faults and problems. ,Abrasive cleaning agents, all-purpose cleaners, thinner or ammonium cleaners should not be used on the dishwasher. They will damage the surface. Wash cabinet Generally, the wash cabinet is self cleaning if the correct amount of detergent is used. The wash cabinet can be cleaned with a dishwasher cleaner such as "Dis Cleaner" available from your Miele dealer, Miele or online at www.miele.com.
Cleaning and Care Indicator reflector The reflector of the optical interface is located in the steam deflector beneath the counter top. ^ Clean as necessary with a damp cloth. Control panel ^ Clean the control panel as necessary with a damp cloth. ,The appliance front and controls are not scratch proof. Remove spills immediately.
Cleaning and Care Triple filter system Cleaning the triple filter The triple filter system in the base of the wash cabinet prevents food from being redeposited on dishes. It also protects the circulation pump from damage caused by foreign objects (e.g. broken glass, bones, etc.). During normal use, the filter system is self-cleaning. ,The machine must not be used without all the filters in place! ^ Check and clean the filter system periodically for any trapped or foreign objects.
Cleaning and Care To clean the underside of the filter the flap must be opened. ^ Return the filter so it lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet. ^ Push the clips together a and open the flap b. ^ Lock the filter by turning the handle clockwise. ^ Rinse under running water. ^ Close the flap so that the clip engages. ,The triple filter system must be inserted and locked. Large particles could get in the circulation system and cause blockage.
Cleaning and Care Cleaning the spray arms Sometimes particles of food get stuck in the spray arm jets. The spray arms should be inspected and cleaned every 4 - 6 months. ^ Turn off the dishwasher before cleaning. Removing the spray arms ^ Remove the cutlery tray (if present). ^ Push the upper spray arm up to engage the inner ratchet and unscrew the spray arm. ^ Lift up the middle spray arm, a, to engage the ratchet and unscrew the spray arm, b. ^ Remove the lower basket.
Cleaning and Care Cleaning the water inlet filter A filter is incorporated into the intake hose attached to the dishwasher’s shut off valve. If your water is hard or the pipes contain sediment, this filter may clog and prevent enough water from entering the wash cabinet. ,The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical wiring. Do not cut the intake hose or submerge it in liquid.
Cleaning and Care Cleaning the drain pump and non-return valve If the dishwasher is not completely drained at the end of a program, the drain pump or non-return valve may be blocked. ^ Turn off the dishwasher and pull the plug. ^ Remove the triple filter (see "Triple filter system"). ^ Use a cup or bowl to scoop water out of the wash cabinet. The drain pump is beneath the non-return valve (see arrow). ^ Remove all foreign objects from the drain pump (glass or bone splinters).
