Descale
The frequency of descaling will depend
on the water hardness level in your
area.
The descaling process can be run at
any time.
However, to ensure that the oven
functions correctly, you will be
automatically prompted to run the
descaling process for the steam
injection system after a certain number
of programmes.
The oven will count down in the display
the last 10 programmes that can be run
before it needs to be descaled. You will
then not be able to run any function or
automatic programme using moisture
assistance.
These functions can only be used again
after you have carried out a descaling
process. All other functions and
automatic programmes without
moisture assistance can still be used.
Descaling process sequence
Once the descaling process has been
started it must be completed through
to the end. It cannot be cancelled.
Descaling takes approx. 90 minutes and
consists of several steps:
1. Preparing the descaling process
2. Drawing in the descaling solution
3. Activation phase
4. Rinse 1
5. Rinse 2
6. Rinse 3
7. Residual water evaporation
Preparing the descaling process
You will need a container of approx.
1 litre capacity.
A plastic tube (with suction cup) is
supplied with your oven so that you
do not have to hold the container with
the descaling agent underneath the
water intake pipe.
We recommend using the descaling
tablets supplied. They have been
specially developed for Miele for
optimum results.
Tip:
Miele descaling tablets are
available to order from the Miele
webshop, from the Miele Customer
Service Department or from your Miele
dealer.
