Caring for the environment
Disposing 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 of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old machine
Electrical and electronic machines
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your machine.
Please do not therefore dispose or it
with your household waste.
It should be unplugged or disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by a
competent person.
Energy saving tips
Energy and water consumption
Water consumption and energy
–
usage are determined by the size of
the load.
To make the most out of your
machine load the maximum dry load
for the programme you are using.
– If smaller loads are washed using the
Cottons programmes, the automatic
load recognition system will reduce
the amount of water, time and energy
used.
Detergent
– Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
–
Reduce the amount of detergent for
smaller loads.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

~
damage.
Do not install or use a damaged machine.
The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed
~
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It
is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and
regularly tested, and where there is any doubt the on-site wiring
system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
~
user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele approved service technician. If this is not
done, any resultant damage will not be covered by the guarantee.
Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after
maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
~
do so by Miele.
In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, 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 isolator switch, or
–
it is switched off at the mains, or
–
the mains fuse has been withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse is
removed (in countries where this is applicable).
8
Warning and Safety instructions
This machine must only be connected to the on-site water supply
~
using a new hose kit. Old hoses must not be re-used. Check the
hose regularly for signs of wear. Change in good time to avoid the

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The maximum load of dry laundry for this machine is 6.5 kg. See
~
the "Programme chart" for the maximum recommended loads in
individual programmes.
Do not install your machine in rooms where temperatures below
~
freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability
of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below
freezing point.
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the transit
~
bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see section on
"Installation and connection"). During spinning, a transit bar which is
still in place may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent
furniture or appliances.
Turn off the stopcock if the machine 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.
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,
~
paper clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds
container, drum), which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
11
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. A special
descaling agent is available to order from your Miele Dealer or the
Miele Spare Parts Department.
Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning
~
agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being
washed in the machine.
Never use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing
~
benzine, in this machine, as this may result in damage to component
parts and create toxic fumes. Such agents also pose a fire and
explosion hazard.
Benzine, petrol, paraffin, or any easily flammable liquid must not
~
be stored or used near the machine. Fire and explosion risk!
Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for
~
use in a washing machine. Always observe the manufacturer's
instructions carefully.
Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds which
~
can cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use these products in
this machine.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Avoid contact of stainless steel surfaces (front, lid, casing) with
~
liquid cleaning and disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or
sodium hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on
stainless steel.
Aggressive vapours containing chlorine bleach can also be
corrosive. Do not store open containers of these agents near the
machine.
Do not use a high pressure cleaner or hose to clean the machine.
~
It is particularly important to observe the manufacturer's
~
instructions when using a combination of cleaning agents and
special application products. Products must only be used for
applications approved by the manufacturer to avoid any material
damage or the occurrence of strong chemical reactions
Accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by
~
Miele. If other parts are used, guarantee, performance and product
liability claims will be invalidated.
A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked on top of a Miele washing
~

Notes and tips on laundry care
1. Sort the laundry
Empty all pockets.
^
Foreign objects (e.g. nails,
,
coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause
damage to textiles and to
components in the machine.
Removing marks
^ Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should
be cleaned as soon as possible,
preferably whilst still fresh. Spillages
should be carefully dabbed off using
a soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub.
Badly soiled areas can be pre-treated
with liquid detergent, stain removers
etc. first, following the manufacturer's
instructions. With particularly stubborn
stains ask your dry cleaner for advice.
,
Do not use solvent-based
cleaning agents in this machine.
Sorting laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by
^
care label. Most garments have a
textile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Dark textiles often contain excess dye
and should be washed separately
several times before being included in
a mixed load. Always wash whites and
coloureds separately.
General tips
Curtains: Remove lead weights first
–
or place in a laundry bag.
– 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, pillow cases
etc. to prevent small items from
being rolled up inside them.
–
Further tips can be found under
"Programme chart".
Do not wash any items in this machine
which are specified by the
manufacturer as not washable on the
care label (h symbol).

Notes and tips on laundry care
2. Load the drum
Switch the machine on with the On/
^
Off button K.
Press the a button and open the
^
drum door.
The interior drum lighting will come
on.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely
^
into the drum. Mixing both large and
small items gives better wash results
and also helps distribute the load
evenly during spinning.
The most efficient use of energy and
water is achieved when a full load is
washed. However, do not overload as
this causes creases and reduces
cleaning efficiency.
^ Shut the door with a gentle swing.
,
Make sure that no items are
caught between the door and the
drum.
3. Select a programme
^
Select the most appropriate
programme for the load being
washed (see "Programme chart").
Pre-wash
For laundry with large amounts of dirt
(e.g. dust, sand).
Spin
Final spin
Laundry is spun after the final rinse.
The maximum final spin speed is
determined by the individual
programme and cannot be changed.
See chart.
Rinse and interim spin
There is a spin after the main wash and
between the rinses. You cannot alter
the spin speed.
Payment system
If your machine is connected to a
payment system, the amount of credit
required will appear in the display.
Credit will be lost if, after the
programme has started, the door is
opened or the programme cancelled
(depending on how the machine was
set up).
