8 Correct application Correct application This dishwasher complies with current safety requirements. Inappropriate 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 powerful cleaning performance is intended for commercial use in Guest houses Clubs 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 incorrect use or operation. This dishwasher is intended for stationary, indoor use only. The special inserts should only be used for their specific application. This dishwasher is not suitable for the reprocessing of medical products or devices. 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. 8

9 Correct installation Warning and Safety instructions Do not install this dishwasher in an area where there is a risk of explosion 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 adjacent cabinetry. In order to reduce the risk of damage from condensation, the furniture in the area around the dishwasher should be designed for commercial use. Technical safety This dishwasher must only be installed, commissioned, repaired and then maintained by the Miele 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 Service Department or an authorised Miele Service dealer. Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guarantee the correct functioning and safety of the appliance. The electrical safety of this dishwasher can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installation 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"). 9

10 Warning and Safety instructions Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Do not open the dishwasher casing. Tampering with electrical connections 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 special cable available from Miele. For safety reasons this must only be done by the Miele 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 stopcock 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 electricity supply. 10

11 Correct use Warning and Safety instructions This dishwasher is designed for operation with water and cleaning agents suitable for use in commercial dishwashers only. Organic solvents 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 dishwashers. 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 dishwasher 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 containers 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 immediately. When using cleaning agents and specialised products, it is essential 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 reactions and material damage (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion). Do not inhale or ingest powder cleaning agent. Dishwasher cleaning agents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. 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. 11

12 Warning and Safety instructions To avoid material damage and corrosion, do not allow any acids or solutions containing chlorides or metals which are not rust-proof to get into the wash cabinet. 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 positioning 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. 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 residual chemical agent in the cabinet. Seek medical advice immediately 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 manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee and Miele cannot accept liability. Only use Miele baskets and inserts with this dishwasher. Using baskets and inserts made by other manufacturers, or making modifications to Miele accessories can cause unsatisfactory cleaning results, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage would not be covered by the guarantee. 12

13 Warning and Safety instructions Symbols used Warning: Observe the operating instructions Warning: Danger of electric shock Disposal of your old dishwasher For safety and environmental reasons, dispose of all chemical agents 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 dishwasher, 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. 13

14 Caring for the environment 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 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 machine Electrical and electronic machines often contain valuable materials. They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your machine. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste. Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal. 14

24 Opening and closing the door Comfort door locking mechanism This dishwasher is equipped with a Comfort door locking mechanism. This door locking mechanism helps drying by opening the door by a few centimetres at the end of the programme (except Super short, Reactivation, Cold and Drain).This function can also be deactivated (see "Settings, Drying"). Opening the door The door can only be opened if the dishwasher is connected to the electrical supply and is switched on (the LED in the button is lit up). The control panel also serves as a door handle. Press the button to open the door. The LED in the button will go out as soon as the door is unlocked. Grasp the handle underneath the control panel and lower the door to open. Pressing the button during operation can interrupt the programme (see "Operation, Interrupting a programme"). A programme which is already running should only be interrupted if strictly necessary, e.g. if the wash load is moving about significantly. 24

25 Closing the door Push the baskets right in. Opening and closing the door Raise the door upwards and push it gently until the catch audibly engages. The door will be drawn automatically into its final closed position by the closing mechanism. Do not put your hand inside the door as it is closing. Danger of injury. If the door cannot be closed properly by the mechanism because it is obstructed by crockery or similar, the Door blocked message or F 433 will appear in the display (see "Problem solving guide") and the mechanism will open. Remove the obstruction from the vicinity of the door. If too much force is used when closing the door, the Comfort door locking mechanism will reopen the door. The dishwasher can only be guaranteed as waterproof if the automatic closing mechanism has drawn the door into the final closed position. 25

26 Opening and closing the door Opening the door using the emergency release The emergency release may only be used when it is no longer possible to open the door normally. If the emergency release is operated during a programme cycle, hot water can escape. Danger of scalding and burning. The emergency release mechanism is located on the right beside the door lock between the door and the lid of the machine (or the worktop, with built-under machines). The emergency release is operated using the tool supplied in the accessory pack with the operating instructions. Insert the tool for the emergency release into the gap between the lid and the door to the right of the lock. The right hand edge of the tool should ideally be aligned with the right hand edge of the display. Push the slider for the emergency release backwards with the tool until the door opens slightly. If you push against the door of the dishwasher at the same time, less force will be needed to operate the emergency release. When the door has been opened using the emergency release, the following message will appear in the display: Emergency release - Door opened Confirm the message after the door has been released from the closing mechanism. The last programme used will then appear in the display. 26

27 Reactivation Filling the salt reservoir In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs to operate with soft mains water. Hard water results in the build-up of calcium deposits on the load and in the dishwasher. Mains water with a hardness of more than 0.7 mmol/l (4 dh German scale) must be softened. This occurs automatically in the integrated water softener. The water softener must be set to the exact hardness of the mains water. Your local water authority will be able to tell you the exact degree of hardness of the mains water supply. For future servicing it is useful to make a note of your water hardness level. Enter your water hardness level here: dh or mmol/l The water softener must be reactivated at regular intervals. Special reactivation salt is required for this. If the hardness of your water is constantly less than 0.7 mmol/l (= 4 dh German scale), salt is not required for the water softener. However the water softener must still be set. Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid cleaning agent. Dishwasher cleaning agent will damage the water softener. Only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, or pure evaporated salt. Other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the water softener. 27

28 Filling the salt reservoir Setting the water hardness level The water softener can be set between mmol/l (0-70 dh). Select the Further settings menu. Select Water hardness and confirm your choice with the OK button. Water hardness 19 dh (0-70 dh) The factory default for the water softener is set to a hardness of 3.4 mmol/l (19 dh). When adjusting the setting, please consult the following table. Where the water hardness fluctuates, e.g. between mmol/l (8-17 dh), always programme the dishwasher to the higher value, 3.1 mmol/l (17 dh) in this example. Use the (higher) and (lower) arrow buttons to set the water hardness required and confirm your entry using the OK button. 28

29 Filling the salt reservoir Settings dh f mmol/l Display dh f mmol/l Display *) *) Factory default setting 29

30 Filling the salt reservoir Add salt reminder Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt for reactivation as soon as the reminder appears in the display. Confirm the message shown with the OK button. If salt is not added, the symbol indicating a lack of salt will appear beside the programme name on the right. The refill reminder will appear again at the end of every programme. Refill reminders can be displayed during the programme cycle by pressing the OK button. If there are no further refill reminders, the symbol in the display will go out after a few seconds when the salt is refilled. The salt refill reminder is deactivated if the dishwasher is set to a water hardness of mmol/l (0-4 dh). Machine lock-out in case of lack of salt If the refill salt reminder is ignored for several programme cycles and the salt is not refilled, the dishwasher will lock itself against further use until it is refilled. The following message will appear in the display shortly before this happens: Machine locking out Insufficient salt K OK Only a few more programme cycles are possible, depending on the programme selected and water hardness level set. The dishwasher is locked against operation if further programme cycles are run without salt being refilled. Salt container empty, Programme locked out K OK When reactivation salt is added the machine will unlock itself after a few seconds. 30

31 Filling the salt reservoir Filling the salt reservoir When filling the salt reservoir only open the door halfway to ensure that all the salt gets into the reservoir. Press the button on the lid of the salt reservoir in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open. Lift up the funnel. Do not fill the reservoir with water. Add salt only until the funnel of the salt reservoir is full, so that it can close properly. The salt reservoir will take approx. 2 kg of salt on the first fill depending on the degree of coarseness. Subsequent refills may take less salt, as there may still be salt remaining in the reservoir. 31

32 Filling the salt reservoir Do not add any more than 2 kg of salt. As the salt reservoir is being filled, displaced water may run out. Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and the seal around it, and then close the flap. To avoid corrosion in the cabinet, run the Cold programme (without any crockery in the dishwasher) immediately after refilling the salt reservoir to remove any traces of salt. 32

33 Rinsing agent Adding rinsing agent Rinsing agent is necessary to ensure water does not cling and leave marks on crockery during the drying phase and helps crockery dry faster after it has been washed. Rinsing agent can be poured into the reservoir in the door or can be dispensed via an external dispensing DOS module (Optional accessory - see "DOS module"). Only fill the rinsing agent reservoir with rinsing agent. Do not fill it with washing-up liquid or powder or liquid detergent. This will seriously damage the reservoir. Conversion to the external DOS module must be carried out only by Miele Service or by an authorised Miele Service Dealer. In the Beer glasses programme the final rinse is carried out without rinsing agent. Add rinsing agent reminder Refill rinsing agent at the end of a programme as soon as the message appears in the display. Refill rinsing agent K OK Confirm the message shown with the OK button. Universal Temperature Duration : 55 C 23 Min If rinsing agent is not added, the symbol indicating a lack of rinsing agent will appear beside the programme name on the right. The refill reminder will be displayed again at the end of every subsequent programme. Refill reminders can be displayed during the programme cycle by pressing the OK button. If there are no further refill reminders, the symbol in the display will go out a few seconds after the rinsing agent has been refilled. 33

34 Adding rinsing agent Adding rinsing agent Open the door fully. Unscrew the lid of the rinsing agent reservoir Add rinsing agent only until it is up to the maximum mark on the edge of the reservoir. The reservoir holds approx. 300 ml. Screw the lid of the rinsing agent reservoir back on securely so that water cannot get into the reservoir during the wash cycle. Wipe up any spilled rinsing agent. This prevents over-foaming occurring during the next programme. You can adjust the dosage for best results (see "Further settings, Additional functions"). 34

35 Areas of application Loading the dishwasher Remove coarse food residues from crockery. There is no need to rinse items under running water. Notes Ensure that no acid or solvent residues, especially hydrochloric acid or chlorides, get inside the wash cabinet. Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or paint in the dishwasher. These substances will damage the dishwasher. Crockery can be loaded into the appropriate places in the baskets, but the following notes should be observed: Load the crockery so that water can access all surfaces. This ensures that they get properly cleaned. Load plates symmetrically in the upper and lower baskets with the concave surface towards the centre of the basket (as shown on the following pages). Do not place crockery and cutlery inside other pieces where they may be concealed. Make sure that all items are securely positioned. Hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. must be inverted in the basket. Tall, narrow, hollow items should be placed in the centre of the basket if possible to ensure better water coverage. Wide based items should be placed at an angle so that water can run off them freely. The spray arms must not be blocked by items which are too tall or hang through the baskets. If in doubt, test for free movement by manually rotating the spray arms. Make sure that small items cannot fall through the holders in the baskets. Small items, e.g. lids, should therefore be placed in the cutlery basket. 35

36 Areas of application Items not suitable for dishwashers: We recommend Please note: Wooden cutlery and crockery or items with wooden parts: these may discolour and fade. The glue used in these items is not dishwasher-proof and wooden handles may come loose after being washed in a dishwasher. Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware: such items are not suitable for dishwashers. Plastic items which are not heat resistant: the high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape. Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items: these may discolour or become matt. Colours painted over a glaze: these may fade after a number of washes. Delicate glassware and glassware containing lead crystal: clouding may occur over time. When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher-proof. Clouding may occur on glasses after frequent washing. If delicate glassware is washed in the dishwasher ensure that only a special glass-care programme with very low temperatures (see programme chart) is selected and that suitable cleaning agent is used. This will reduce the risk of clouding. Silver and aluminium which has been in contact with foods containing sulphur can discolour. Aluminium components (e.g. grease filters) must not be cleaned with caustic alkaline commercial or industrial cleaning agents. These may damage the material, or in extreme cases, there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical reaction (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction). 36

37 Upper basket Areas of application Use the upper basket for small, lightweight and delicate items such as cups, saucers, glasses, dessert bowls etc. Light, heat resistant plastic items can also be loaded in the upper basket. O 891 upper basket With insert E 810 for e.g. 20 cups, 33 saucers or 17 dessert plates. Cup rack The cup rack can be set at two different widths so that it can also accommodate large cups. Pull the cup rack upwards and click it back into position at the required width. 37

38 Areas of application Adjusting the upper basket In order to gain more space for taller pieces of crockery in the lower or upper basket, the upper basket can be adjusted between two positions with approx. 5 cm between each position. Pull out the upper basket. Unscrew the fixing nuts on both sides. Lift or lower the basket into the desired position. Tighten the fixing nuts again. The upper basket must be level in both positions. If it is at an angle, this will obstruct the water connection. When changing the height of the upper basket, always adjust the water connection accordingly before pushing the upper basket back in. Turn the upper basket water connection to the upper or lower position. The water connection must click audibly into place. 38

44 Operation Adding cleaning agent Only use cleaning agent for commercial dishwashers. Cleaning agent can be dispensed in powder form via the powder detergent dispenser or in liquid form via an external DOS module (Optional accessory - see "DOS module"). Do not use tablet detergent. The short programme durations will not allow the tablets to dissolve properly. Powder cleaning agent Only use powder cleaning agent in the door dispenser compartment. Add powder cleaning agent to the dispenser for cleaning agent in the door before every wash programme (except Super short, Cold, Reactivation and Drain). Follow the tips on the next page. Add the appropriate amount of cleaning agent to the dispenser according to the degree of soiling of the items to be washed (observe the quantities given in the "Programme chart"). Press the opening catch on the dispenser in the direction of the arrow. The flap will spring open to the left. The flap is always open at the end of a programme. Add the required amount of powder cleaning agent and close the flap. 44

45 Operation Dispensing Always follow the recommendations of the cleaning agent manufacturer. There are markings to assist with dispensing: 20, 40. The marks indicate a level of approx. 20 or 40 ml when the door is open in the horizontal position. They also indicate the approx. level in grammes (depending on the manufacturer and the coarseness of the agent). The compartment holds a maximum of 60 ml. Tips for the Super short programme With the Super short programme, the final rinse water is not pumped out at the end of the programme in order to achieve short programme durations in continuous use. Cleaning agent cannot be rinsed out of the dispenser during the short programme time. If liquid detergent is not being dispensed, add powder cleaning agent directly onto the inside of the door. To avoid corrosion or discolouration, the wash programme must be started immediately after dispensing cleaning agent directly onto the inside of the door. 45

46 Operation DOS module In addition to the internal dispensing systems, up to two further external dispensing systems (DOS modules) can be connected for dispensing liquid chemical agents. For more information on Miele DOS modules please contact your Miele dealer or the Miele Professional Department. Labelling the siphons Liquid chemical agents from external containers are dispensed by siphons. Colour coding the siphons can be helpful for correct dispensing. Miele use and recommend: Blue: for cleaning agent Red: for rinsing agent For cleaning specific types of soiling, and for information on the optimum cleaning agents and additives to use for liquid dispensing, please contact the Miele Professional Department. Connecting DOS modules The DOS module is supplied with its own installation instructions. Power supply for DOS 1, cleaning agent. Power supply for DOS 4 rinsing agent. Connections for dispensing hoses Before fitting the DOS module compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate with that on the data plate of your machine. If the data does not match, the module could sustain damage. If in any doubt, consult an electrician. Connect the module to the electricity supply. To connect the dispensing hose, release the hose clip on a free connector and remove the safety cap. Push the dispensing hose onto the connector and secure it with a hose clip. Unused connectors must be blanked off with safety caps to prevent the leakage of wash fluid. 46

47 Operation Setting the dispensing concentration Refilling or changing containers For adjusting dispensing concentration see "Further settings / Additional functions / Dispensing systems". The DOS module is equipped with a level indicator which gives a message in the display when the level drops below the minimum. DOS Refill K OK Refill the appropriate chemical agent at the end of a programme as soon as the message appears in the display. Confirm the message shown with the OK button. Refill the container in good time to prevent the dispensing system being emptied completely. An empty dispensing system must be vented before starting the next programme. Place the container on the open cabinet door or on a surface which is easy to clean. Unscrew and remove the siphon. Place the siphon on the open cabinet door. Refill the container or replace it with a full one. Push the siphon into the opening of the container and screw it on tightly. Observe the colour coding. Wipe up any spilled chemical agent thoroughly. Place the container on the floor beside the dishwasher or in an adjacent cupboard. Vent the dispensing system if necessary. To vent the system and adjust the dosage amount, see "Further settings, Additional functions". 47

48 Operation Checking consumption Monitor the amount of chemical agents used by regularly checking the level in the container. 48
