Cleaning and care
Descale
118
For optimum cleaning results we recommend that you use
Original Miele descaling tablets to descale your steam combi
oven (see "Optional accessories"). A proprietary citric acid
based descaling agent can also be used. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions on the packaging regarding
safety and dosage.
Ensure that the descaling agent does not come into
contact with the metal surfaces as this could cause marks.
Wipe descaling agent away immediately.
The appliance needs to be descaled after a certain number
of operating hours. When it needs descaling the number 10
will appear in the display when the appliance is switched on.
The number indicates that the appliance can be used 10
more times before it has to be descaled.
The appliance will lock after the last remaining cooking
process and it must be descaled before it is used again.
We recommend descaling before it locks out.
^ Switch the appliance on and select "Further programmes >
Maintenance > Descale".
^ Fill the water container with 1.0 litre of fresh tap water and
add the correct amount of descaler.
^ Push the water container into the appliance until it
connects.
^ Confirm the message shown with OK.
The descaling process will now begin, and the time
remaining will count down in the display.
It is only possible to cancel the descaling process during
the first minute.
Do not switch the appliance off during the descaling
process. If if is switched off before the end of the process,
the whole process will have to be started from the
beginning again.
During the course of the descaling process, the water
container needs to be rinsed and filled with fresh water.
Follow the instructions in the display.
