Spray arm monitoring/conductivity/wash pressure
Problem Cause and remedy
Spray arm monitoring - upper
spray arm: Spray arm blocked
or excessive foaming
or
Spray arm monitoring - lower
spray arm: Spray arm blocked
or excessive foaming
or
Spray arm monitoring - mobile
unit spray arm 1 - : spray arm
blocked or excessive foaming
The rotation speed set has not been reached.
- Items are obstructing the machine or basket spray arms.
 Arrange the load so that the spray arms can turn easily
and start the programme again.
- The relevant spray arm is blocked.
 Clean the spray arm.
 Check whether the filters in the wash cabinet are clean
and correctly inserted.
 Start the programme again.
- Wash pressure is too low due to a heavy build-up of foam.
 Follow the instructions regarding foam build-up in
"Chemical processes and technology".
 Start the Rinsing programme in order to clean the wash
cabinet.
 Then reprocess the load again.
Conductivity level too high:
Actual value: µS/cm Max
value: µS/cm
Carry-over of conductive substances during reprocessing.
 Check the process.
Empty or faulty water softener or demineralisation system.
 Check external water softener or demineralisation
systems.
 Reactivate the systems if necessary.
Work on the on-site water supply.
 Contact a suitably qualified plumber.
Plumbing connections transposed.
 Observe the markings on the plumbing connections (see
"Connection to the water supply").
Conductivity level exceeds
max. value
Conductivity value cannot be determined because the
value is out of range (too low).
 Contact the Miele Service Department.
Conductivity module requires
calibration
The conductivity meter must be recalibrated.
 Contact the Miele Service Department.
Conductivity module
communication error
The connection to the conductivity module is disrupted.
 Contact the Miele Service Department.
Spray pressure exceeds
tolerance
The wash pressure differs from the reference value.
Possible causes of fluctuations in the wash pressure
include:
-Defective water connections,
-Open adapters,
-Foam build-up.
 Identify and resolve the cause of this.
 The programme is not interrupted. Nevertheless, you
must reprocess the load.
