Program blocks
The wash block sequence is pre-determined and is the same as the
sequence in the program chart (see “Program charts”).
-
Pre-rinse 1
to
3
Pre-washing removes coarse stains and foam-building substances.
-
Main wash 1
and
2
Depending on the wash items, cleaning generally occurs at temper-
atures between 113°F/45°C and 149°F/65°C with the addition of an
appropriate cleaning agent.
-
Interim rinse 1
to
4
In the interim rinse stages, the process chemicals from the
previous wash blocks are rinsed off and neutralized where neces-
sary by adding appropriate neutralizing agents.
-
Final rinse 1
and
2
To avoid deposits and corrosion on the wash items, demineralized
(DI) water should preferably be used if available for the final rinse.
According to the A
0
concept of EN ISO 15883, disinfection occurs
thermally at temperatures of 176°F to 203°F/80°C to 95°C and with
relevant holding times.
-
Drying
Adequate drying reduces the risk of corrosion by residual moisture
on the wash items.
Program block parameters are accessible only to Miele Service,
with the exception of the dispensing of rinsing agent and drying pa-
rameters.
