The residual water drawer is dish-
washer-safe or can be washed by
hand using warm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
Make sure the metal discs (contacts)
at the top of the residual water
drawer are clean and dry. These
metal discs send a signal to the
steam ironing system when the re-
sidual water drawer is full or if it is in-
serted into the tower.
The discs will not function correctly if
they are dirty or damp.
Slide the residual water drawer back
into the tower until it clicks into place.
Steam cannot be produced until the
empty residual water drawer is re-
placed in the tower. Steam is only
available again when the message
Ready for use
appears in the dis-
play .
Cleaning and care
Descaling
The steam ironing system must be de-
scaled regularly to ensure that it func-
tions correctly. The steam ironing sys-
tem has an automatic descaling func-
tion to assist you.
The interval for descaling depends on
the water hardness level set. Descaling
is required more frequently with hard
water than with soft water.
We recommend using the Miele de-
scaling tablets. These have been
specially developed for use with
Miele appliances to optimise the de-
scaling process.
Other descaling agents, which con-
tain other acids besides citric acid
and/or other undesirable substances,
such as chlorides for example, could
damage the steam ironing system.
Moreover, the required descaling ef-
fect cannot be guaranteed.
You will need 2 descaling tablets to de-
scale the appliance.
Miele descaling tablets are available to
order from Miele (see "Optional ac-
cessories").
The iron or steamer must not be con-
nected during descaling of the steam
ironing system.
The steam ironing system can be left
unattended during descaling,
provided that the iron or steamer is
not connected.
