
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which
may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered
by the warranty.
Correct installation

The dishwasher must be installed and connected in accordance
with the installation instructions and the supplied installation plan.

Be careful before and while installing the dishwasher.
Some metal parts pose a risk of injury/cutting. Wear
protective gloves.

The dishwasher must be correctly aligned horizontally to ensure
trouble-free operation.

In order to ensure stability, built-under and integrated dishwashers
must only be installed under a continuous countertop which is
secured to adjacent cabinetry.

The dishwasher must only be built into a tall unit if additional
safety precautions are taken. In order to safely install the appliance
in a tall unit, please use the "Tall unit installation kit" and observe the
installation plan provided. Otherwise there is the danger of the unit
tipping over.

The door springs must be evenly adjusted on both sides. They are
correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left half
open (approx. 45° opening angle). The door must not fall open on its
own beyond this point.
The appliance must only be operated with properly adjusted door
springs.
If the door cannot be adjusted properly, contact Miele customer
service.
The maximum weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the
factory fitted door springs is 10–12 kg (depending on model).
