"U" dishwashers The built-under ("U") dishwashers use the integrated ("i") dishwashers as the basic machine. By using a GDU decor kit the "i"dishwasher can be converted into a "U" model dishwasher.

[. . . ] The wash program will begin. 30 Operating the dishwasher Program sequence indication. During the wash program, the program knob will move around the dial and show which section of the wash cycle has been reached. ­ Pre-wash (not shown) ­ Main wash ­ Interim rinse ­ Final rinse ­ Drying The dial will remain stationary during the heating stages of the wash and rinse cycles, until the required temperatures have been reached. When the program has been completed, the dial will be in the End position. If the dishes are not immediately needed, leaving the door closed will allow the fan to run a few minutes longer to remove any remaining moisture. Note: If a program is ended prematurely, important program steps (e. g. The "RINSE & HOLD" program has been completed when the program dial stops just before the starting point of the "INTENSIVE" program. Program interruption A program is interrupted as soon as the door is opened. If the door is closed again, the program will proceed from its previous position. Warning The water in the dishwasher may be hot, and steam may be present!Only open the door if absolutely necessary and exercise extreme caution when doing so. Once the door has been opened, allow 20-30 seconds for the internal temperature to equalize before closing it again, and make sure it clicks into place. 31 Unloading the dishwasher Unloading the dishwasher Dishes tend to break and chip easier when they are hot. Allow the dishes to cool down until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading them. Screw the inlet hose back onto the water valve, making certain it is not cross-threaded. Slowly turn on the valve and test for leaks. 37 Cleaning and care Installing an in-line water filter. If your water supply contains a large number of insoluble substances, we recommend installing a filter between the valve and the inlet hose connection. These filters can be obtained from the Miele Parts Department. Cleaning the control panel. The control panel can be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive, all purpose, or glass cleaners, as their use may damage the plastic surfaces. Cleaning the wash cabinet In general the wash cabinet is selfcleaning, provided that the correct amount of dishwasher detergent is used. However if there are lime scale or grease deposits, these can be removed with a dishwasher cleaner. Cleaning the door panel. Plastic laminate panels should be cleaned using a suitable, non-abrasive cleaning agent, or mild soapy water. Panels made from wood should be cleaned using a soft damp cloth and an appropriate wood cleaner. Cleaning the door and the door seal Wipe the door seal regularly with a damp cloth and remove any particles of food. Wipe away residues of food and drink spillage from the sides of the dishwasher door. These are outside of the wash cabinet and are not reached by water from the spray arms. 38 Checking the water level Checking the water level Checking the water level. If the water pressure is less than 14. 5 psi (1 bar), too little water may flow into the wash cabinet. To check the water level, open the water valve completely and run the RINSE & HOLD program once (without dishes), to bring water into the system. After approximately 3 minutes, open the door and remove the lower basket from the machine. The water level is correct when dimension "X" is at least 1/8" (4 mm). If it measures less, the water intake time must be increased. 39 Checking the water level Increasing the water intake time. Position the program knob vertically, then pull it off. Using a small screwdriver, turn the adjusting slot on the right hand side of the spindle carefully counterclockwise until it clicks into position. [. . . ] A 2" x 4" (60 x 115 mm) cutout in either the side or bottom of the cabinet adjoining the dishwasher is necessary if the valve box needs to be passed through. Plumbing Existing plumbing: If the standard 3/8" copper plumbing for a dishwasher already exists with a compression fitting and valve as pictured: Cut the 3/8" copper tubing after the valve. Install the 3/8" compression to 3/4" MHT (Male Hose Thread) adapter (supplied with the machine), as illustrated. Electrical wiring and components should not come into contact with any plumbing fixtures or hoses. Do not, under any circumstances, cut the intake hose. If the hose is cut, the dishwasher will not work, you will have a water leak and you could be injured. [. . . ]
