How to resolve it
The ingredients in process chemicals have
a strong influence on the longevity and
functionality (throughput) of the dispensing
system.
– Only use process chemicals supplied and
approved by Miele in this machine. The
instructions and recommendations of the
process chemicals must be observed.
– Carry out a regular visual check of the
dispensing system (suction lances, hoses,
dispensing containers etc.) for any
damage.
– Regularly check the flow rate of the
dispensing system.
– Ensure that the regular cycle of
maintenance is observed.
– Please contact Miele Service for advice.
Process chemicals can damage elastomers
and plastics in the machine and
accessories.
– Only use process chemicals supplied and
approved by Miele in this machine. The
instructions and recommendations of the
process chemicals must be observed.
– Carry out a regular visual check of any
accessible elastomers and plastics for
damage.
Hydrogen peroxide can release large
amounts of oxygen.
– Use only certified processes.
– The wash temperature must be lower than
70°C when using hydrogen peroxide.
– Please contact Miele Service for advice.
The following process chemicals can cause
large amounts of foam to build up:
– cleaning and rinsing agents that contain
tensides.
Foam can occur:
– in the program block in which the process
chemical is dispensed,
– in the subsequent program block due to
carry-over,
– in the case of rinse aid, in the subsequent
program due to carry-over.
– Process parameters in the wash program,
such as dispensing temperature, dosage
concentration etc. must be set to ensure
the whole process is foam free or very low
foaming.
– Observe the instructions of the
manufacturer of the process chemicals.
