Cleaning and Care

Cleaning the water inlet filter

A filter is incorporated into the intake hose attached to the dishwasher’s shut off valve. If your water is hard or the pipes contain sediment, this filter may clog and prevent enough water from entering the wash cabinet.

The plastic housing of the water connection contains electrical wiring.

Do not cut the intake hose or submerge it in liquid.

Installing an in-line water filter

If your water contains a large number of insoluble substances, a filter between the water valve and the intake hose connection is recommended. These filters can be purchased from Miele.

Cleaning the filter

Turn off the dishwasher and pull the plug.

Turn off the water supply.

Unscrew the intake hose.

Carefully remove the rubber seal.

Remove the filter using needle nose pliers and rinse it under running water.

Reinsert the filter and seal. Make sure they are seated correctly.

Screw the intake hose back on the water valve, checking that it is not cross-threaded.

Slowly turn on the water supply and test for leaks.
