Dispensing systems
Risk to health due to
process chemicals.
Some process chemicals may be
corrosive and irritant substances.
Swallowing process chemicals can cause
chemical burns in the mouth and throat or
lead to asphyxiation. If process chemicals
get into the eyes, they can irritate or burn
them.
Observe the relevant safety regulations
issued by the process chemical
manufacturers when handling process
chemicals and take all the protective
measures stipulated by the process
chemical manufacturers.
Depending on the model, dishwashers are
equipped with multiple dispensing systems
for process chemicals:
- Cleaning agent
Cleaning agent can be dispensed in
powder form, as a tablet or in liquid form.
Powder cleaning agent and tablets are
dispensed via the door dispenser with the
symbol. Depending on the model,
liquid cleaning agent is dispensed either
via an internal dispensing system or via an
external dispensing module (DOS
module).
- Rinsing agent
Depending on the model, rinsing agent
can be dispensed via the door dispenser
with the symbol or via an external
dispensing module (DOS module).
External dispensing modules (DOS
modules) can be retrofitted at any time by
the Miele Customer Service Department,
provided that corresponding DOS module
connections are available.
Cleaning agent and rinsing agent
Dispensing module
In addition to the internal dispensing
systems, up to two additional external
dispensing systems (modules) DOS can be
connected for dispensing liquid process
chemicals.
Labelling of the siphons
Liquid process chemicals from external
containers are dispensed by siphons. Colour
coding the siphons can be helpful for correct
dispensing.
Specific types of soiling may require
different combinations of cleaning agents
and additives. The Miele Customer Service
Department will be able to advise you.
Connecting dispensing modules
The dispensing module is supplied with its
own installation instructions.
Power supply connection for DOS 1,
cleaning agent (depending on the model).
Power supply connection for DOS 4,
rinsing agent (depending on the model).
Connections for dispensing hoses.
Damage caused by incorrect voltage.
Before fitting the dispensing module,
compare the connection data (voltage and
frequency) on the module data plate with
that on the data plate of your dishwasher.
If the data does not match, the module
could sustain damage.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Connect the module to the machine's
power supply.
