Automatic hood start
Closing the hood automatically starts a washing programme. The automatic hood start can be deactivated by an authorised service technician (P572). Every washing programme will then need to be started by pressing the start button.
PTD 901 LIFT (version) – automatic hood
The hood opens automatically after every washing programme and can be closed again using the start button on the front cover.
PTD 901 ECO (version)
Note: Cold water connection required.
In the ECO module there is a fan motor and heat exchanger above the warewasher. The fan motor extracts warm humid air (= vapours) from the wash chamber and transfers the energy gained to the cold inlet water via the heat exchanger. A waste water heat exchanger provides an additional energy gain.
Integral water softener (optional)
Warewasher with built-in salt container for regeneration salt. The regeneration salt softens the inlet water and thus prevents a build-up of limescale inside the warewasher and on the items being washed.

3.3 Display
Operating the display is similar to operating the display of a smartphone. The display responds to light touches. Therefore, operate the display only with your fingers and do not use any sharp objects. You can also operate the display and start button with wet hands or rubber gloves.

Ø Wear protective clothing, protective gloves and protective goggles.
Use only products that are suitable for commercial warewashers. We recommend Miele products that are specially adapted to Miele warewashers. The correct dosage is based on the information on the product packaging.
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure that water on the items being washed drains off after washing as a thin film. This ensures that the wash items dry quickly.
Rinse aid is dosed automatically by an integrated dosing device.
Detergent
A detergent is necessary to dissolve the leftovers and dirt on the wash items. Detergent is dosed automatically by an (optional) integrated or external dosing
device.
To avoid damaging the warewasher and to achieve a good wash result:
– Do not use acidic detergents.
– Do not use foaming products (e.g. manual washing-up liquid) for pre-treating the wash items.
3.8 Suction tube with level control
A suction tube is needed to suck out the chemicals from the containers.
– Do not place the suction tube for the rinse aid in the container with detergent or vice versa.
– Only use the suction tube with sufficiently stable containers. Narrow and tall containers can tip as soon as the suction tube is pulled.
– Do not pull on the dosing hose or main power cable, as this may lead to a defect.Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Fig 7

4.1.6 Descale
If the warewasher is operated with hard water and without water treatment, then the boiler, the interior of the machine, all the water lines and other components may develop scale. Grease residues and dirt that remain in the machine can contribute towards hygiene risks, while scaling can lead to failure of heating elements. Regular removal of these coatings is recommended.
The interior of the warewasher can be descaled using the descaling programme. We recommend running the descaling programme at the end of every working day, as the machine’s tank is emptied when the programme starts and ends.
For descaling, you need an acid-based descaler suitable for commercial warewashers.
The water lines and the boiler can be descaled only by an authorised service technician.

5.1 Installing the warewasher
The installation site must be frost-resistant to prevent the water supply systems from freezing.

  • Install the warewasher horizontally using a spirit level.
  • Adjust any unevenness of the base using the height-adjustable machine feet.

5.2 Connecting the warewasher
The warewasher and any other relevant additional devices must be connected in adherence to local standards and regulations by an electrical company authorised by the relevant electricity supplier.
5.2.1 Water connection
The water-related safety should be as per DIN EN 61770. The warewasher can be connected to a fresh water pipe without an intermediate connection to other safety
equipment.
Connecting the inlet water hose
Important notes:
– Do not shorten, alter or damage the inlet water hose.
– Use only the inlet water hose supplied. Old existing inlet water hoses may not be re-used.
– Do not kink the inlet water hose when connecting it.Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Fig 28

  • Connect the inlet water hose (4) and the dirt trap (3) to the warewasher and the on-site water supply (1).
  • Only for Australia and New Zealand:

Installation according to AS/NZS 3500.1 and AS/NZS 3500.2:
Connect the dual check valve (2) to the dirt trap (3) and the on-site water supply (1).

5.2.2 Electrical connection
Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Icon 3 Danger
Electric shock from live components
A fatal electric shock can occur when the warewasher and its additional devices are connected to the electrical mains supply.

  • The warewasher and its additional devices may be connected to the electrical mains supply only by a specialist company registered within the electrical trade and approved by the energy supplier.
  • All locally applicable standards and regulations must be observed during the connection to the electrical mains supply.
  • When performing installation and maintenance work as well as repairs, unplug the warewasher from the mains supply. Check that there is no voltage present.
  • The electrical safety of this warewasher is guaranteed only if it is connected to a correctly installed protective circuit and a residual current circuit breaker. It is crucial that this basic safety requirement is tested and, in case of doubt, that the on-site installation is checked by a qualified electrician.
  • The circuit diagram must be observed.
  • The warewasher may be operated only at the voltages and frequencies specified on the rating plate.
  • For machines delivered without a plug, a fixed connection must be installed as an overriding priority.

If no notice is taken of the video, the self-cleaning programme will start automatically.Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Fig 60Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Fig 618.3 Cleaning the warewasher at the end of the working day
Cleaning the warewasher interior
Ensure that there are no rusty foreign objects in the interior of the warewasher, which could cause even “stainless steel rust-free” material to start to rust. Rust particles can come from non-rust-free wash items, from cleaning aids, damaged wire grate racks or from water pipes that are not protected against rust. The following aids may not be  used for cleaning:
– Detergents containing chlorine or acid
– Cleaning sponge or wire brush containing metal
– Abrasives or abrasive cleaning agents

  • Remove dirt with a brush or a cloth.

Cleaning the outside of the warewasher

  • Do not spray the warewasher and the surrounding area (panels, floor) with a steam jet or high-pressure cleaner.
    Ensure when cleaning the floor that the plinth of the warewasher is not flooded, to prevent an uncontrolled inflow of water.
  • Clean the display with a damp cloth.
  • Clean the external surfaces using a stainless steel cleaner and stainless steel polish.

Salt residues can have a negative effect on the wash result. It is best, therefore, to top up the regeneration salt before starting the self-cleaning programme.
Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Icon27 Caution
Damage to the water softener
Chemicals such as detergent or rinse aid or other salts such as table salt will inevitably damage the water softener.

  • Fill exclusively with regeneration salt or pure evaporated salt with a maximum grain size of 1-4 mm.

Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Icon27 Caution
Danger of rust formation in the filling area as a result of salt residues

  • After filling the regeneration salt, start a washing programme or the self-cleaning programme in order to wash away any salt residues that may be present.
  • Only fill with water when commissioning the water softener for the first time.
  • Top up the regeneration salt.

Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Fig 65

8.7 Cleaning the interior
To achieve an optimal wash result and to increase the service life of the warewasher, we recommend cleaning the interior daily.
Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Icon44 Note
Risk of rust due to foreign bodies
Damaged wire grate baskets, wash items that are not rust-free, incorrect cleaning utensils and water pipes not protected from rust can cause corroding foreign bodies to enter the interior of the warewasher. These foreign bodies can also cause the material “stainless steel” to corrode.

  • Use only undamaged wire grate baskets, suitable wash items and suitable cleaning utensils.
    The following materials must not be used for cleaning:
    – High-pressure cleaner, steam jet
    – Detergents containing chlorine or acid
    – Cleaning sponges or wire brushes containing metal
    – Abrasives or abrasive cleaning agents
  • Hose down the interior with a water hose.
  • Remove dirt with a brush or a cloth.

8.8 Descale the warewasher
If the warewasher is operated with hard water and without water treatment, then the boiler, the interior of the machine, all the water lines and components may develop scale. Grease residues and dirt that remain in the machine can contribute towards hygiene risks, while scaling can lead to failure of heating elements. Regular removal of this scaling is therefore necessary / essential.
The descaling programme can be used to descale the interior of the machine. (} 70)
The water lines and the boiler can be descaled only by an authorised service technician.
8.9 Maintenance by the customer service department
We recommend that you have an authorised service technician carry out maintenance of the warewasher at least once a year so that vulnerable components subject to ageing and wear can be checked and replaced accordingly. Original spare parts must be used for repairs or to replace consumable parts.
Consumable parts are, e.g.:
– Dosing tubes
– Inlet water hose
Miele PTD 901 Throughfeed Dishwasher Stainless steel - Icon45 Service interval
The warewasher control unit specifies the number of operating hours or wash cycles at which the pictogram for service is shown.
Note: This function is deactivated ex-factory. On request, the service technician can activate this function.

Disassembly and disposal
