Adding detergent

Only use detergents formulated for
domestic dishwashers.  Do not use
washing up liquid.

Please note
Dishwasher detergents contain irri-
tant or corrosive ingredients.  They
can cause burning in the mouth
and throat if swallowed, or inhibit
breathing. Keep children away from
detergent and from the dishwasher
when the door is open.  There could
still be detergent residues in the
cabinet. 
To avoid the danger of children com-
ing into contact with the dishwasher
detergent:
only put it into the detergent dispen-
ser just before starting the pro-
gramme.

Selecting detergent

Recently almost all detergent manufac-
turers have launched new detergents
with a different composition, in addition
to standard types.

Should you experience difficulties when
using these types of products, please
contact Miele Customer and Technical
Services Department, or the detergent
manufacturer’s own Advisory Service.

These new dishwashing detergents, al-
though welcome from an ecological
point of view, react to a different degree
from conventional products to water
hardness.  The drawbacks may only
become apparent after a prolonged
period of use.

The following problems may occur:

– White deposits on crockery and

inner cabinet.

– Increased etching in the form of a

bluish sheen on the surface of glass-
ware.

– Discolouration of silverware.

Appearances of this nature are 
generally caused by the detergent
used and are not attributable to any
malfunctioning of the dishwasher it-
self.
