    Miele Dishwasher Issues

    Hey Brisnat81 - I haven't changed any settings on the machine - I only found out how to access the service menu after the machine started playing up to read the error codes. The increased water level setting is turned off. Jerror_Si - it could be - one menu has the component and switch tests...

    Miele Dishwasher Issues

    The machine is currently running on the automatic cycle. It's not as filled as usual, and I wouldn't say the dishes were that dirty. So far, the machine decided they needed a pre-wash which used 3.8l of water, and now it's on the main wash and added 3l of water. It added another 3.2l of...

    Miele Dishwasher Issues

    Thanks all for all the information and troubleshooting tips! I'm so grateful for the assistance! Jerrod_six - to enter the service mode (with the machine turned off), hold the ok button, and press and hold the power button till it beeps. Then press ok three times and hold the ok button until...

    Miele Dishwasher Issues

    Apologies, It's an SCVi machine with an OK button. I have been in service mode, and there are no fault codes. It lists F0000 in it - although I am assuming that means no fault code. I could be wrong. Would the pressure switch cause the cycles to run longer? I wondered if the turbidity sensor...

    Miele Dishwasher Issues

    I am looking for some advice. I have a Miele G6860 sci Dishwasher (UK model). I purchased it in March 2019, and it's been running fine up until the last few months. We've been noticing that things are not cleaning as well and it seems to be using too much water. Some days, the water level is at...

    Does Anyone Still Use Boil Wash Temps?

    I do a 90c hygiene wash every other week for dishcloths, cleaning cloths and mop heads. I clean the toilets and toilet bowls with cloths, so I like my cleaning cloths to be hygienically cleaned. I generally use Persil Colour and add Vanish 0% or some other oxygen bleach to the machine, which...

    Siemens or Schulthess - Opinions wanted

    Will do @hippo! I am sure if you contacted them and asked about it they might be able to put you in touch with someone that can supply them. @foraloysius - I'm not actually sure, the dryers they make for appartment blocks, that do reverse but I am not sure about the domestic ones. I read on...

    Siemens or Schulthess - Opinions wanted

    Hey Jon – thanks for your reply. Your videos were so helpful! The W1 takes 2hrs 29 for a Cotton 60 short and minimum iron is 2hrs 14 but I wouldn’t use them due to the rinsing. It is a disappointment about Miele, I was always a Miele fan. I am on my second dishwasher which both have been great...

    Siemens or Schulthess - Opinions wanted

    Hey Henene4, The machine is still under warranty, it came with a 5-years of which there is 2 years left. The original fault was registered in the first 9 months of owning the machine which under UK sales laws indicates it’s very likely the machine was sold with the fault in question. They...

    Siemens or Schulthess - Opinions wanted

    Thanks for all the replies and information, I really appreciate it!! I checked out the latest Siemens machines and they have really dumbed them down. Removed the turbidity and rinse sensors and the ability to change settings after the program has started. Really disappointing considering the...

    Siemens or Schulthess - Opinions wanted

    Hi All, First time post here but I have been following the forums for a while. I'm looking to gather some opinions about which brand of washing machine to buy. I currently have a Miele WCR870WPS which is three years old. I’m in Scotland UK, and we have very soft water where I live. Since I...
