    							This appliance conforms to 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 appliance, please
    read these instructions carefully
    before using it for the first time. They
    contain important information on its
    safety, use and maintenance.
    Keep these instructions in a safe
    place for future reference, and pass
    them on to any future user.
    Correct usage
    This dishwasher is intended
    exclusively for cleaning domestic
    crockery and cutlery in a domestic
    household. Using it for purposes other
    than those for which it was designed,
    as well as any alterations or
    conversions to the appliance would be
    unauthorised and could cause harm.
    The manufacturer cannot be held liable
    for damage resulting from improper or
    incorrect use of the appliance.
    Transport
    Should you ever need to move the
    dishwasher, e.g. when moving
    house, note the following:
    –
    Empty the dishwasher,
    –
    Secure any loose parts, e. g. hoses,
    mains cable, cutlery baskets, lower
    basket
    –
    Transport the dishwasher in the
    upright position only.
    Delivery
    Before setting up the appliance,
    check it for any externally visible
    damage. Under no circumstances
    should you use a damaged appliance.
    A damaged appliance could be
    dangerous.
    Please ensure that the packaging
    material is offered for recycling.
    Installation
    The dishwasher must be installed
    and connected in compliance with
    the installation plan.
    The dishwasher must only be
    plugged into the electricity supply
    via a suitable switched socket. The
    electrical socket must be easily
    accessible after the dishwasher is
    installed so that it can be disconnected
    from the electricity supply at any time.
    (See Electrical connection).
    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.
    In order to ensure stability,
    built-under and integrated
    dishwashers must only be installed
    under a continuous worktop which is
    secured to adjacent cabinetry.
    Warning and Safety instructions
    7
     
    						
    							The dishwasher must not be
    installed under a hob. The high
    radiant temperatures which are
    sometimes generated by a hob could
    damage the dishwasher. For the same
    reason it should not be installed next to
    open fires or other appliances which
    give off heat, such as heaters etc.
    If you want to convert your
    freestanding dishwasher to a
    built-under (U) model, you will need to
    order the appropriate conversion kit. If
    you remove the existing plinth, you
    must replace it with a U-model plinth.
    This is necessary to avoid the risk of
    injury caused by protruding metal
    parts.
    Do not connect the dishwasher to
    the mains supply until it has been
    fully installed.
    Before connecting the appliance,
    check that the connection data on
    the data plate (voltage and connected
    load) match the mains electricity
    supply. If in any doubt, consult a
    qualified electrician.
    The electrical safety of this
    appliance can only be guaranteed
    when continuity is complete between
    the appliance and an effective earthing
    system. It is most important that this
    basic safety requirement is regularly
    tested and where there is any doubt,
    the electrical system in the house
    should be checked by a qualified
    electrician.
    The manufacturer cannot be held liable
    for the consequences of an inadequate
    earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
    This equipment may only be used
    in mobile installations such as
    ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
    assessment of the installation has been
    carried out by a suitably qualified
    engineer.
    A damaged appliance could be
    dangerous. Switch off at the mains
    and call your Miele supplier or the Miele
    Service Department.
    The plastic housing of the water
    connection contains an electrical
    component. The housing must therefore
    not be dipped in water.
    There are live wires in the water
    inlet hose. Never cut the water inlet
    hose, even if it is too long.
    Do not connect the appliance to
    the mains electricity supply by an
    extension lead. Extension leads do not
    guarantee the required safety of the
    appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
    Use
    Do not use solvents in the
    dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
    Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher
    detergent! Dishwasher detergents
    can cause burning in the nose, mouth
    and throat if swallowed, or inhibit
    breathing. Consult a doctor immediate-
    ly if detergent has been swallowed or
    inhaled.
    Warning and Safety instructions
    8
     
    						
    							Avoid leaving the door open
    unnecessarily, as you could trip
    over it.
    Do not sit or lean on the opened
    door. This could cause the
    dishwasher to tip and be damaged and
    you could get injured.
    Only use detergent and rinse aid
    formulated for domestic
    dishwashers. Do not use washing-up
    liquid.
    In an appliance with a cutlery
    basket (depending on model)
    cutlery is cleaned and dried more
    efficiently if placed in the basket with
    the handles downwards. However, to
    avoid the risk of injury place knives and
    forks etc. with the handles upwards.
    Please only use special coarse
    grained dishwasher salt for
    reactivation, as other salts may contain
    insoluble additives which can impair
    the functioning of the softener.
    Plastic items which cannot
    withstand being washed in hot
    water, such as disposable plastic
    containers, or plastic cutlery and
    crockery should not be cleaned in the
    dishwasher. The high temperatures in
    the dishwasher may cause them to melt
    or lose shape.
    On models with Delay start, make
    sure that the dispenser is dry
    before adding detergent. Wipe dry if
    necessary. Detergent will clog if poured
    into a damp dispenser and may not be
    thoroughly dispensed.
    Do not use liquid detergent when
    selecting Delay start, as it can run into
    the dishwasher before it is required.
    Safety with children
    This appliance is not a toy! To
    avoid the risk of injury do not allow
    children to play in or around the
    dishwasher, or to operate it. There is
    also a danger that children playing
    might shut themselves in the
    dishwasher.
    Keep children away from
    detergents. Dishwasher detergents
    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 detergent residues
    in the cabinet.
    Consult a doctor immediately if your
    child has swallowed or inhaled
    detergent.
    Warning and Safety instructions
    9
     
    						
    							To avoid damage to the
    appliance and other materials
    Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir
    with powder or liquid detergent.
    This will cause serious damage to the
    reservoir.
    Inadvertently filling the salt
    reservoir with powder or liquid
    dishwasher detergent always leads to
    serious damage to the water softener.
    Make sure you have picked up the
    correct packet of dishwasher salt
    before filling the salt reservoir!
    Do not use commercial or industrial
    detergents as these may damage
    material and there is a risk of severe
    chemical reaction.
    The Miele Waterproof System offers
    protection from water damage,
    provided the following conditions are
    met:
    – The dishwasher is correctly installed
    and plumbed in.
    –
    The dishwasher is properly
    maintained and parts are replaced
    where it can be seen that this is
    necessary.
    –
    The stopcock has been turned off
    when the appliance is not used for a
    longer period of time (e.g. during
    holidays).
    The Waterproof system will work even if
    the appliance is switched off. However,
    the appliance must remain connected
    to the electricity supply.
    In countries where there are 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 caused by cockroaches or
    other vermin will not be covered by the
    guarantee.
    Repairs and maintenance
    Repairs may only be carried out by
    suitably qualified and competent
    technicians in accordance with current
    local and national safety requirements.
    Repairs and other work by unqualified
    persons could be dangerous.
    Always disconnect the appliance
    from the electrical supply for
