Descaling
When descaling the oven, only use
descaling agents with a citric acid
base or the descaling tablets
available from Miele. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. Do not
use vinegar. It will damage the
appliance.
The display will show a message
stating that the appliance needs to be
descaled.
The display will also show that after "x"
numbers of uses the appliance will be
locked if not descaled.
Once locked the appliance cannot be
used until the descaling program has
been run.
If you want to descale before the
appliance is locked, select the function
"Descaling".
^ Contact Miele or visit the online store
to order descaling tablets or use a
household descaling agent
containing citric acid.
^ Dilute the descaling agent with water
to make 1 quart (1 Liter) of solution in
the steam generator. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
^ Push the steam generator into the
appliance until it engages.
^ Follow the prompts.
The descaling can be canceled during
the first minute. After that the process
cannot be stopped.

the descaling process! If it is turned
off before the end of the program
the entire process will have to be
restarted.
At the end of the process
^ Open the door.

generator.
