IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-treatments with cleaning agents can create foam, as can cer-
tain types of soiling and process chemicals. Foam can have an ad-
verse effect on the cleaning result.
Processes must be set up such that foam cannot escape from the
wash cabinet. It would hinder the correct functioning of the machine.
The process used must be monitored on a regular basis by the su-
pervisor to check foaming levels.
To avoid the risk of damage to the machine and its accessories
caused by process chemicals, soiling, and any reaction between the
two, please read the notes in "Chemical processes and technology".
Even when a process chemical, e.g., detergent, is recommended,
the machine manufacturer takes no responsibility for the effect of
such chemicals on the wash items.
Please note that changes in product formulation, storage conditions,
etc., which are not announced by manufacturers of process chemi-
cals may impair the quality of cleaning results.
When using process chemicals, always consult the instructions is-
sued by individual manufacturers. Process chemicals must only be
used for the purpose they are designed for by the manufacturer to
avoid any material damage or the occurrence of very strong chemical
reactions, such as an oxyhydrogen explosion.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on storage and dis-
posal of process chemicals.
Particles ≥ 200 μm are removed by the filters in the wash chamber.
Smaller particles may find their way into the circulation system.
In critical applications where very stringent requirements have to
be met, it is strongly recommended that all the relevant factors for the
process, such as process chemicals, water quality, etc., are dis-
cussed with Miele.
If the cleaning result is subject to particularly stringent require-
ments, e.g., in chemical analysis, regular quality control should be
carried out by the operator to ensure that required standards of
cleanliness are being achieved.
The mobile units, modules, and inserts that hold the wash items
must be used only as intended.
The interior of lumened wash items must be thoroughly flushed
through with wash water.
Secure small and light items with cover nets or place in a mesh
tray for small items, so that they do not block the spray arms.
Empty any containers or utensils before loading them.
