Miele M.-NR. 04 390 922 Dishwasher User Manual


 
Turning off.
At the end of a program:
Turn the program selector knob to
the “STOP” position.
If any appliance will not be used for an
extended period (e.g. while on vaca-
tion), it is recommended that the water
supply valve be shut off.
Your Miele dishwasher is designed
to shut off the water flow and drain
the machine in the rare event of a
valve failure. In order for this func-
tion to be active, the door must be
shut, the machine must be “ON”,
and the Program knob must be in
the “STOP” position.
Sequence indicator (20).
Once a program has started, the se-
quence indicator lamps (20) show the
actual program stage reached by the
dishwasher.
Note:
When required, the water softener
reactivation process is performed
before the wash program. It may
last several minutes and occurs in
intervals.
During this process only the “Sof-
tener” indicator will be on.
The hardness of the water supply will
dictate how often (after how many
washes) the water softener needs to be
reactivated. For example, with a water
hardness of 21 gr/gal, reactivation will
take place after every 3 programs. With
a water hardness of 8 gr/gal, reactivation
will only take place after 11 programs.
Interrupting a program.
A program can be interrupted by open-
ing the door.
If the door is then closed, the program
will continue from the point it was at be-
fore the door was opened.
Warning!
The water in the dishwasher may
be hot, and steam may be present!
Only open the door if absolutely
necessary and exercise extreme
caution when doing so. The danger
of burns and scalding exists.
Once the door has been opened,
allow 20-30 seconds for the inter-
nal temperature to equalize before
closing it again, and make sure it
clicks into place.
Changing a program.
A program can be changed at any
time. The new program will start as
soon as it has been selected.
Turn the program selector knob to
the desired program.
If you wish to start the new program at
its beginning:
Turn the program selector knob to
“STOP”,
(a point will appear in the display
field).
Select the new program and press
“START”.
It may be necessary to add additional
detergent, depending on where the
original program was interrupted.
Operating the dishwasher.
