Descaling
Only use the descaling tablets
supplied with the appliance. These
have been specially formulated and
are available from the Miele Spare
Parts Department or via the internet
on www.miele-shop.com.
Other types of descaling agents will
damage the oven.
Follow the instructions on the
package carefully to avoid
damaging the oven.
Clean the oven interior after
descaling to ensure that all traces of
descaling agent have been
removed.
The descaling process takes about
90 minutes. Follow the instructions in
the display.
^ Dissolve one descaling tablet in
approx. 600 ml of cold mains tap
water.
^
Place the universal tray on the top
shelf level to collect the descaling
solution after it has been used.
^
Select the "Descale" option.
A plastic tube (with clip) is supplied
with your oven so that you do not
have to hold the container with the
descaling agent underneath the
water intake tube.
^ Attach the plastic tube to the end of
the water intake tube. Place the other
end in the bottom of the descaling
solution container, and secure the
plastic tube to the container with the
clip.
^ Close the door.
^ Start the suction process with the
sensor next to "OK".
The progress of the descaling process
will be indicated by illuminated
segments in the bar in the display. You
can hear the pump.
The amount of solution specified can
be more than the amount which is
actually required, which means that
some of the solution will be left in the
container at the end of descaling. Top
the container up with approx. 300 ml of
water, as the system will need to draw
in some more liquid during the
activation phase.
