 Only wash items which have been declared by their
manufacturer as suitable for machine reprocessing may be
processed. The manufacturer's specific reprocessing instructions
must be observed.
Disposable items may not be reprocessed.
Special nozzles, irrigation sleeves, or adapters may be required for
appropriate internal cleaning, depending on the wash items. These,
together with other accessories, are available from Miele.
 Protective measures for personal safety must be observed.
Wear protective gloves when handling contaminated wash items or
use appropriate tools, e.g., tweezers.
- Arrange the wash items so that wash water can access all surfaces.
This ensures that they get properly cleaned.
- Do not place items to be cleaned inside other pieces where they
may be concealed. Do not place items so close together that
cleaning is hampered.
- The interior of lumened items must be thoroughly flushed through
with wash water.
- Ensure that wash items with long, narrow, hollow sections can be
flushed through properly before placing them in or attaching them
to an irrigation connector.
- Hollow vessels should be inverted and placed in the correct mobile
units, baskets, modules, and inserts, to ensure that water can flow
in and out of them unrestricted.
- Deep-sided wash items, e.g., trays, should be placed at an angle to
make sure water runs off them freely.
- Take apart any wash items which can be dismantled according to
the manufacturer's instructions and reprocess the individual parts
separately from each other.
- Lightweight wash items should be secured with a cover net (e.g.,
an A 6 or A 810) and small items placed in a mesh tray to prevent
them from blocking the spray arms.
- The spray arms must not be blocked by wash items which are too
tall or which hang down in their path.
- Broken glass can result in serious injury when loading or unloading.
Broken glass items must not be processed in the machine.
- Nickel and chrome-plated wash items and items made of aluminum
are not generally suitable for machine reprocessing. They require
special processing conditions.
- It is advisable to use only instruments made of special application
steel which are not susceptible to corrosion.
