Using chemical agents
Only use chemical agents designed specifically for use in the
machine and follow the manufacturer's instructions on their
application.
Please observe carefully any instructions relating to non-toxic
residues.
Caution when using chemical agents. Some agents may be
corrosive and irritant.
The relevant safety regulations and the chemical agent
manufacturer's safety data sheets must be observed.
Wear protective goggles and gloves.
Contact Miele for information about suitable chemical agents.
Dispensing systems
The machine is equipped with a number of internal dispensing
systems for chemical agents:
– Rinsing agent
This is dispensed via a storage reservoir in the door.
– Neutralisation agent
This is dispensed using a siphon.
– Liquid detergent
This is dispensed via a siphon.
An additional internal dispensing system can be fitted retrospectively
by Miele Service if required.
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 the following:
– Blue: for cleaning agent
– Red: for neutralising agent
– Green: for chemical disinfection agents or
an additional second cleaning agent
– White: for acidic chemical agent
– Yellow: for free choice
