							Triple filter system
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).
The filter system should be cleaned
every 4 - 6 months or whenever a
foreign object is trapped.
Cleaning the filter in the wash
cabinet

cleaning.

							Cleaning the wash cabinet
Generally, the wash cabinet is self
cleaning if the correct amount of
dishwasher detergent is used.
The wash cabinet can be cleaned with
a dishwasher cleaner such as Dis
Cleaner available from your Miele
dealer or the Miele Technical Service
Department.
Cleaning the door and door
seal
^Wipe the door seal with a damp cloth
to remove any food particles.
^Food residue and spilt liquids should
be wiped from the sides of the
dishwasher door. These are outside
of the wash cabinet and are not
cleaned by water from the spray
arms.
Cleaning the exterior
,Never use abrasive cleaners,
scouring pads, steel wool or caustic
(oven) cleaners on the dishwasher.
They will
damage the surface.
Plastic
All plastic surfaces and the control
panel can be cleaned with warm water
and liquid dish soap applied with a soft
sponge.
Wipe dry using a soft cloth.
,Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner
for stainless steel can also be used.
Apply sparingly with even pressure.
Stainless steel colored controls
These controls may become discolored
or damaged if not cleaned regularly.
Do not use a stainless steel cleaner on
the knobs or buttons.
Wood
Panels made from wood should be
cleaned using a soft damp cloth and an
appropriate wood cleaner.

							Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in 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.
Installing an in-line water filter
^If your water contains a large number
of insoluble substances, a filter
between the water valve and the
intake hose connection is
recommended. These filters can be
purchased from Miele’s Technical
Service Department.,The plastic valve housing on the
intake hose contains electrical
components and should not be
immersed, or run through water.
Cleaning the filter:
^Disconnect the dishwasher from
electricity (unplug it or trip the
circuit breaker).
^Turn off the water valve.
^Unscrew the intake hose.
^
Carefully remove the rubber seal.
^
Remove the filter using a needle nose
plier and rinse under running water.
^
Return the filter and seal. Make sure
they are seated correctly.
^
Screw the intake hose back on the
water valve, checking that it is not
cross-threaded.
^
Slowly turn on the valve and test for
leaks.
48 
						

							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.
^Remove the triple filter (see Cleaning
the filter in the wash cabinet).
^Use a jug or bowl to scoop water out
of the wash cabinet.
^
Tilt the locking clamp to the side.^Pull out the non-return valve and
rinse well under running water.
The drain pump is beneath the
non-return valve (see arrow).
^
Before returning the non-return valve,
check that the drain pump is not
blocked. Spin the propeller several
times in both directions to check for
obstructions.
^
Carefully refit the non-return valve
and secure it with the locking clamp.
^
