Caring for our environment

Disposal of the packing
material

The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed safely and kept
out of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger suffocation!

Rather than just throwing these materi
als away, please ensure they are of
fered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances contain materials which
can be recycled. Please contact your
dealer, your local waste collection cen
tre or scrap merchant about potential
recycling schemes.

Ensure that the appliance presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal. See the appropriate ad
vice in the "Warning and safety instruc
tions".

Warning and safety instructions

Read the operating instructions be
fore using this machine for the first
time. They contain important infor
mation about the safety, use and
maintenance of the machine. This
way you will avoid the risk of acci
dents and damage to the machine.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and ensure that new
users are familiar with the content.

Correct usage

Only use the washing machine to

wash items which are specified by
the manufacturer to be machine-wash­able on the wash-care label, and tex­tiles composed of hand-washable wool
or wool blend fabrics as well as satin,
lace, silk and other hand-washable gar­ments.
Any other applications may be danger­ous. The manufacturer is not liable for
damage resulting from improper use or
operation.

This appliance should not be oper

ated by children. Supervise its use
by the elderly or infirm.

supply. If in any doubt, consult a quali
fied electrician.

The electrical safety of this appli

ance can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between the ma
chine and an effective earthing system
which complies with local and national
regulations. It is most important that this
basic safety requirement is regularly
tested by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re
sponsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec
tric shock).

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

The machine is built in accordance

with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in un­foreseen dangers for the user, for which
the manufacturer cannot accept re­sponsibility. Repairs should only be un
dertaken by a Miele approved
engineer.

-

Ensure current is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or repair
work is being carried out.

Technical safety

Before setting up the machine,

check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not install and use a dam
aged machine.

Before connecting the machine,

ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (fusing, voltage and fre
quency) match the mains electricity

8

The machine is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply

when:
–

-

-

it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or

–

it is switched off at the mains, or

–

the mains fuse is withdrawn.

Warning and safety instructions

This machine must only be con

nected to the on-site water supply
using a new hose kit. Old hoses must
not be re-used. Check the hose regu
larly for signs of wear and tear. Change
in good time to avoid the risk of leaks
and subsequent damage.

Faulty components must only be

exchanged for Miele original spare
parts. Only when these parts are fitted
can the safety standards of the ma
chine be guaranteed.

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the appli­ance and its surroundings in a clean
condition at all times. Any damage
which may be caused by cockroaches
or other vermin will not be covered by
the appliance guarantee.

Use

This equipment is not designed for

maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess
ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.

-

Before using the machine for the

first time, check that the transit fit
ting at the rear of the machine has been
removed (see section on "Installation").
During spinning, a transit fitting which is
still in place may result in damage to
both the machine and adjacent furni
ture or appliances.

Turn off the stopcock if the ma

chine is to be left for any length of
time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is
no floor drain (gully) in the immediate
vicinity.

Flooding danger.

If hooking the drain hose into a
wash basin, check that the water can
drain off quickly enough to prevent the
sink from overflowing.
Make sure the drain hose is secure, so
that the force of the water flowing out of
the hose does not dislodge it. Other­wise this will result in flooding.

Take care to ensure that foreign ob-

jects (e.g. nails, needles, coins,
paper clips, etc.) do not find their way
into the machine with the washing (e.g.
in pockets). Foreign objects can dam
age components of the machine, which
in turn can result in damage to the
washing.

-

-

-

-

Do not install your washing ma

chine in rooms where temperatures
below freezing may occur. Frozen
hoses may burst under pressure. The
reliability of the electronic control sys
tem may be impaired at temperatures
below freezing point.

Warning and safety instructions

If the correct amount of detergent

is dispensed, the machine should
not need to be descaled. If, however,
you do wish to descale the machine
only use proprietary non-corrosive
descaling agents and strictly observe
the instructions on the packaging. If in
doubt, contact the Miele Customer Ser
vice Dept. or your Miele Dealer.

Textiles which have been

pre-treated in solvent based clean
ing agents must be thoroughly rinsed in
clean water before being washed in the
machine.

Never use solvent based cleaning

agents in this machine, as this may
result in damage to component parts
and create toxic fumes. Such deter­gents also pose a fire and explosion
hazard.

Only use dyes specified by the

manufacturer as being suitable for
use in a domestic washing machine. Al­ways observe the manufacturer's in­structions carefully.

Always make sure the drum is sta

tionary before reaching in to re
move washing. Reaching into a moving
drum is extremely dangerous.

Accessories

-

-

Accessory parts may only be fitted

when expressly approved by Miele.
If other parts are used, guarantee, per
formance and product liability claims
will be invalidated.

Disposal of your old machine

Before discarding an old machine

unplug it. Render the plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the ap­pliance to prevent misuse. This should
be done by a competent person.

-

-

-

Colour run and dye removers con

tain sulphur compounds which can
cause damage such as corrosion. Do
not use these products in this machine.

For machines with a ‘porthole’

door, remember that the porthole
glass will be hot when washing at very
high temperatures. Do not let children
touch it.

Washing environmentally and economically

Water consumption and energy us

–

age are determined by the size of the
load. Load to the maximum recom
mended for the programme selected.

The washing times can vary consid

–

erably due to the automatic load ad
justment feature. Depending on the
amount of the load, the main wash
may be shortened and one rinse
omitted.

Use the

–

programme or the
programme for smaller amounts of
laundry.

– To save energy wash normally and

lightly soiled laundry at lower tem­peratures. The 95°C Cottons
programme is probably only needed
in exceptional circumstances, e.g.
for oil based stains or where a very
hot wash is required.

– A main wash (programme without

pre-wash) is sufficient to clean nor­mally soiled laundry.

How to wash correctly

Brief guide

The headings numbered (A,B,C,...)
show the operating sequence and can
be used as a brief guide.

Before washing
A Sort the laundry.

^ Empty all pockets.

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,
paper clips, etc.) can cause dam
age to textiles and components in
the machine.

-

Dark textiles often contain excess dye
and should be washed separately sev
eral times before being included in a
mixed load. Always wash whites and
coloureds separately.

Delicate textiles should be washed sep
arately in a delicates programme (use a
washing bag where appropriate).

Do not wash any items in this machine
which are specified by the manufac
turer as non-machine washable on the
care label. (h symbol)

Pre-treat the laundry

Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and
cuffs, and water soluble stains can be
pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter­gent or detergent mixed into a solution
or paste.

With particularly stubborn stains ask
your dry cleaner for advice. Do not
used solvent-based cleaning agents in
this machine.

–

Curtains:
Remove lead weights and strips or
place in a laundry bag.

-

-

-

Most garments have a textile care label
in the collar or side seam. Sort the
washing by care label symbols. (See
"Programmes - Care symbols" for their
explanation).

–

Underwiring and collar stiffeners:
Any loose wiring in bras, shirt collar
stiffeners, etc. should be removed or
sewn in.

–

Knitted garments, trousers and
jeans, T-shirts and sweat shirts:
Turn inside out, if recommended by
the manufacturer.

–

Close any zips, fasten hooks and
eyes etc. before washing.

–

Fasten duvet covers to prevent
smaller items rolling up inside them.

How to wash correctly

B Press the Door button.
C Load the drum.

Unfold washing and load loosely in the
drum. To achieve best results it is ad
visable to make up mixed loads con
sisting of both large and small items.
This improves the washing effect and
helps distribute the load evenly to keep
the machine stable and reduce the
noise level during spinning.

Overloading reduces the wash result
and causes more creasing.

Adding detergent

All modern detergents produced for
automatic washing machines are suit
able, including liquid, compact (con

-

­centrated), tablets, liquid tablets and
special application detergents. Use dis
pensing aids, e.g. balls, if these are
supplied with the detergent. Tablets are
suitable for full loads, but note that it
may be impractical to reduce tablets by
proportion to suit smaller loads.

Woollens and knitwear containing wool
mixtures and hand-washable garments
should be washed using a detergent
specifically designed for washing
woollens.

Silk should be washed using a liquid
detergent specifically designed for
washing woollens. Do not use biologi­cal detergents on silk as the enzymes
may damage the silk!

Add detergent according to the amount
recommended on the packaging. The
right amount to dispense will depend
on the following:

–

The quantity of laundry.

–

The soiling level of the laundry.
Lightly soiled

No visible dirt or stains. Possibly
slight body odour.

Normally soiled
Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight
stains.

i = Compartment soak/pre-wash.

This compartment is also used
for starch formulations when
starching separately.

j = Compartment main wash
p = Compartment fabric conditioner

Water is taken in through compartment
i in the pre-wash.

Water is taken in through compartment
j in the main wash. If the capacity of
compartment j is insufficient for the
amount of detergent needed for a
COTTONS programme (e.g. in very
hard water areas), the machine can be
programmed so that water and deter
gent can also be taken into the main
wash through compartment i , see
"Programmable functions", "Activating
compartment i".

-

Water softeners

A water softener can be used to cut
down on the use of detergents in ex
tremely hard water areas. Dispense ac
cording to the amount specified on the
packaging. First add detergent and
then the water softener.

Use a quantity of detergent as for soft
water.

Miele do not recommend connecting
the machine to a household water soft
ener.

If you wash using several components
(e.g. special application detergents),
we recommend always dispensing the
agents into compartment j in the fol­lowing order:

1. Detergent

2. Water softener

3. Stain remover
This way the agents are distributed

more efficiently.

-

Fabric conditioners,
texturisers, liquid starch

Fabric conditioners make garments soft
and fluffy to handle and help prevent
static cling when tumble drying.

Texturisers are synthetic starch formula

Top-up rinse (programmable):

At the end of the main wash additional water flows into the drum, and the suds are cooled slightly. Hot
water might damage plastic drain pipes.

Graduated rinsing:

The suds are cooled at the end of the wash cycle by water flowing in and being pumped away at inter
vals thereby minimising crease formation.

Rinse and interim spin:

There is a spin between the rinses.

Final spin:

The maximum spin speed according to the programme can be selected with the Spin button. In the
programmes MINIMUM IRON, DELICATES, and MIXED WASH, the spin speed is automatically limited
to the above stated maximum spin speed.

Anti-crease, loosen:

The anti-crease action guards against the tendency for creases to set in if laundry is not removed from
the drum as soon as a programme has finished. There is drum movement twice a minute. The door
can be opened and laundry removed at any time during the anticrease phase.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the washing machine

Clean the casing with a mild

^

non-abrasive detergent or soap and
water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Clean the facia panel and lid with a

^

damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
The drum can be cleaned using a

^

suitable proprietary stainless steel
cleaner.

Do not use abrasive cleaners, glass
cleaners or all-purpose cleaners.
These might cause damage to the
plastic surfaces because of the
chemicals they contain.

E-cloth

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,
Part Number 98013530, which is suit­able for cleaning surfaces such as
stainless steel, glass, plastic and
chrome without the use of chemicals.

Extra cleaning

Carrying out a hot wash (70°C or
above) with powder detergent approx.
once every six weeks will help to en
sure that no deposits build up in the
machine. These can occur when wash
ing is mainly done at low temperatures,
and also lead to unpleasant smells. If
you have no reason to wash laundry oc
casionally at this high temperature, then
carry out a 95°C COTTONS programme
as a cleaning cycle with powder deter
gent and no washing, at regular inter
vals.

Cleaning the fluff (drain) filter
and pump

Check the fluff (drain) filter initially after
3-4 washes to ascertain how often it is
likely to require cleaning.

With normal cleaning approx. 2 litres of
water run out.

Cleaning and care

If the drain outlet is clogged, more wa
ter will be retained in the machine (up
to 25 litres).

Caution: If laundry has been washed
at a high temperature, water drain
ing out of the machine will still be
hot.

Take the (yellow) filter flap opener from
behind the detergent drawer facia
panel, (see illustration above).

-

-

Open the flap.

^
^ Place a dish under the drain fixture.

^

Turn the fluff filter lid round 2-3 times.
Do not take it right out.

With large volumes of water, when the
dish is full screw the fluff filter back into
position, and empty the dish before re
peating the procedure.

-

41

Cleaning and care

Once the flow of water ceases, re

^

move the fluff filter completely.

^ Clean the fluff filter thoroughly.
^ Remove any foreign objects (e.g.

buttons, coins, etc.) and fluff.

^ Turn the impeller by hand to check

that it is free to rotate. Any foreign ob­jects causing an obstruction should
be removed.

-

Clean the inside of the fluff filter hous

^

ing.

Remove any deposits of limescale and
detergent or foreign objects from the
thread of the filter housing and filter unit
(as these objects can cause a leakage
of water). Deposits of limescale are of­ten a sign of underdosage of powder.

^ Put the fluff filter back in place and

secure it.

Make sure the fluff filter is securely
tightened. Otherwise there is a risk
of water leakage during use.

After cleaning

^

Pour approx. 2 litres of water into the
detergent dispenser compartment
j to reactivate the ball valve which
keeps detergent in circulation in the
suds.

-

42

Cleaning and care

To clean the water inlet filters

The washing machine has two filters to
protect the inlet valves.These filters
should be checked every 6 months or
so, or more often if there are frequent
interruptions to the water supply.

To clean the filter in the union in the
open end of the inlet hose:

First turn off the stopcock.

^

Unscrew the threaded union connect

^

ing the free end of the inlet hose to
the stopcock.

Inspect the inlet hose which is sub
jected to high pressure while the ma
chine is in operation. The hose should
be replaced if there are small cracks in
the surface, or if it has been otherwise
damaged.
If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose able to withstand pressure of at
least 70 bar. Miele’s own hoses meet
this requirement.

To clean the filter in the water inlet

-

valve:

Using pliers, carefully loosen the

^

ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve,
and unscrew.

-

-

^

Remove the rubber seal from the re
cess.

^

Using pointed pliers, take hold

of the plastic filter bar, remove the fil

ter and clean.

^

Put the filter and seal back in the re
verse order and reconnect the hose.

Turn on the stopcock and check the
connection is watertight.

-

^

Use water pump pliers to withdraw
the plastic filter by the bar (see illus

­tration). Clean, put back and secure.

­The two filters must be put back in

place after cleaning.

Installation

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable in
stallation surface for a washing ma
chine, being far less prone to vibration
during the spin cycle than wooden
floorboards or a surface with "soft"
properties.

Please note the following points:

The machine must be level and se

^

curely positioned.
To avoid vibrations during spinning,

^

the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.

^ If installing on a wooden joist floor, we

recommend a plywood base at least
30 mm thick, 590 x 520 mm wide.
The base should span several joists
and be bolted to the joists, not only to
the floorboards. Check for the pres­ence of pipes and cables first.
The most stable part of the floor is
usually in the corner.

-

-

Installation

Lift the machine from its packaging

­base and move it to its site. Please
note:

Do not lift the machine by the

^

drum door.
Ensure that the machine feet and the

^

floor are dry to prevent the machine
from slipping during the spin cycle.

Removing the transit fitting

,

If the machine is installed on a
raised plinth, it has to be secured
against slippage during spin using
retaining clips (available from the
Miele Spare Parts Dept).

52

A Turn the left-hand transit bar 90°.

Installation

B Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°.

C Withdraw the two bars together with

the support plate.

D Plug the two holes with the plastic

caps supplied.

The washing machine must not

,

be moved without the transit bars in
place.
Store the transit bars in a safe place
for future use. They must be re-fitted
if the machine is to be moved again
(e.g.when moving house).

Re-fitting the transit bars

Re-fitting is carried out by reversing the
procedure.

53

Installation

Levelling the machine

The machine must stand perfectly level
on all four feet to ensure safe and
proper operation.

With a screwdriver loosen and turn

^

the foot 1 together with the
counternut 2 to the left, (see illustra­tion below) and screw out.

^ Put the machine back on all four feet.

Incorrect installation may increase elec­tricity and water consumption and may
cause the machine to move about.

The four adjustable screw feet are used
to level the machine. All four feet are
screwed in when the machine is deliv
ered.

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

^

Gently tip the machine and prop it up
using a solid wooden wedge for ex
ample, to ensure stability.

Make sure the machine does not slip
as this could cause injury.

-

-

^ Use a spirit level to check the ma-

chine is standing level.

^ Hold the foot 1 firm using a pipe

wrench and turn the counternut 2 to
the right firmly up against the housing
with a screwdriver.

All four counternuts must be firmly
up against the housing. Please also
check this for the feet which did not
need adjustment. Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine moving
about.

54

Installation

Building under a worktop

A special building under conversion

^

kit* is required which includes a
cover plate to replace the machine’s
lid.

Fitting instructions are supplied with

^

the conversion kit.
N.B. Cover plate
The cover plate must be fitted in place

of the machine’s lid to ensure electrical
safety . However, if you wish to push
your machine under a worktop and
there is space to do this without re
moving the lid, the conversion kit is not
necessary. Otherwise the conversion kit
is essential.

^ For installation under a work surface

900/910 mm from the floor, a raising

kit* is also required.
^ To ensure electrical safety the con-

version kit and raising kit must be fit-

ted by a suitably qualified installer.

-

Washer and Dryer stack

A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked
with the washing machine. A WTV
stacking kit* is necessary and can be
purchased from the Miele Spare Parts
Department.

* All parts marked with a * are available
from the Miele Spare Parts or Sales De
partment, and must be fitted by a suit
ably competent person according to
the instructions supplied with the kit.

Connections for electricity, water and

drainage should be installed in such

a way that they remain accessible

when the machine is in place.

55

Installation

Connection to water supply

The machine should be connected to a
mains water supply in accordance with
standard regulations. In Germany the
washing machine is not required to
have a non-return valve as it has been
designed to comply with the relevant
German DIN standard.

Connection to the mains water supply
should incorporate a mains stopcock

3

with

/4’’ thread. The stopcock should

be fitted by a qualified plumber.
The approx. 1.5 m long

hose should be connected to the stop­cock via the

3

/4" threaded union.

This pressure hose is not suitable for
connection to a hot water supply.
Please make sure the washer sits cor­rectly in the union.

The connection point is subject to
mains water pressure. Turn on the stop­cock slowly and check for leaks.

3

/8" pressure

Longer hoses 2.5 or 4 metres in length
are available as optional extras.

The machine is designed to operate
with a water flow pressure of 1 bar mini
mum up to 10 bar maximum. The static
water pressure must not exceed 10 bar.
If it is higher than 10 bar it is essential
to fit a reducer valve.

There is a minimum flow pressure of 1
bar pressure if 5 litres of water flow into
a suitable container in 15 seconds.

The two dirt filters - one in the open end
of the inlet hose, one at the inlet point in
the solenoid valve must not be re­moved.

-

If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose able to withstand pressure of at
least 70 bar. This also applies to all
fixtures and fittings used. Miele origi
nal parts fulfil this condition.

with a delivery head of 1 metre.

The drain hose is 1.5 m long. It must
not be kinked as this restricts drainage.
The swivel elbow at the end of the hose
can be turned in either direction, or can
be detached if required, with a sharp
twist and pull.

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink or basin:

Please note the following

away freely without hindrance. Other
wise there is a risk of water overflow
ing or of some of the drained water
being sucked back into the machine.

2. Connected securely to a plastic drain
pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no
need to use a non-return valve.

3. Connected securely to a standpipe.

. Connected securely to a floor gully.
