Surface- mounted design (SMD) technology allows Miele Novotronic components to be extremely durable and reliable.
  • Page 14: Touchtronic

    This series of Miele dishwashers is operated by pushing a single button – no separate temperature or drying selections – just turn the machine on, select a program and Miele does the rest. All models now include a Pots and Pans program and a Water Management System, designed to maximize cleaning results and optimize water and energy conservation.
  • Page 15: Integrated

    Fully integrated (Incognito) dishwashers are designed to blend into the surrounding cabinetry. The operator controls are only available when the door is opened. Each dishwasher is shipped with a bracket for securing a custom cabinet panel. An optional Miele stainless-steel SCVi panel is also available.
