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.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection/recycling centre, and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

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.

Warning and Safety instructions

This machine conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, use and maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner.

Correct application

Only use the 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 cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.

This machine must be used as described in these operating instructions and must be checked on a

regular basis to make sure it is functioning correctly. Maintenance must be carried out when necessary.

This machine is not intended for use by persons (including children)

with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowldege, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their safety.

Safety with children

Keep children away from the machine at all times. It is not a toy!

To avoid the risk of injury do not allow children to play on or near it or to play with its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm, and supervise children whilst you are using it.

Older children may only use the machine if its operation has been

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally

visible damage.

Do not install or use a damaged machine.

Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between the machine and an effective earthing system which complies with current 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 household 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).

Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the machine (e.g. danger of overheating).

Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user,

for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved service technician.

Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

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 mains, or

the mains fuse has been withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse removed (in countries where this is applicable).

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 risk of leaks and subsequent damage.

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original

spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.

If the connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect

the user from danger.

In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation

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

7

Warning and Safety instructions

If this machine is being used in a commercial environment please

ensure that all relevant health and safety regulations are obeyed.

This machine may only be used in mobile installations such as ships if

a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Correct application

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"). 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.

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.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

How to wash correctly

Brief instructions

The headings numbered A, B, C, . . .

show the operating sequence and can be used as brief instructions.

A Sort the laundry

^ Empty all pockets.

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

Removing marks

^Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be removed 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.

^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.

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 etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.

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

15

How to wash correctly

B Load the drum

^Press the a button and open the drum door.

The interior drum lighting will come on.

^Unfold the laundry and load loosely in 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 garments are caught between the drum door and seal.

C Select a language

^ Select the language you want.

D Select a programme

Select a programme from the

Programme selection menu.

^If Pre-wash is available for the programme, select it if wished.

Payment system

If your machine has a payment system, the amount of credit required will appear in the display.

Credit will be lost if the door is opened or the programme cancelled after it has started.

16

How to wash correctly

E Add detergent

Take the level of soiling and water hardness into account. It is important to dispense the correct amount, because

too little detergent results in:

Laundry not getting properly clean and with time it may become grey and hard to the touch.

Greasy particles clinging to the laundry.

Limescale deposits on the heater elements.

too much detergent results in:

Excessive foam which causes a low level of agitation and poor wash, rinse and spin results.

A burden to the environment.

See "Detergent" for further information.

^Pull out the detergent drawer and add detergent to the compartments as follows:

i= Detergent for the pre-wash (1/4 of the total amount recommended). This compartment is also used for starch formulations when starching separately.

j = Detergent for the main wash

§= Fabric conditioner or liquid starch

^ Close the detergent drawer.

17

How to wash correctly

F Start the programme

The Start button will flash as soon as a programme can be started.

^ Press the Start button.

The Start button will light up.

The estimated programme duration will appear in the display. This will count down in one minute steps. During the first 10 minutes the machine measures how much water is being absorbed by the laundry. The programme duration may be shorter depending on this absorbency rate.

The programme sequence is also shown in the display. The washer-extractor shows you when each section of the programme is reached.

The drum lighting switches off once the programme has started.

G Remove the laundry

Only remove laundry from the machine once the drum has stopped turning. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous and could result in injury.

If laundry is not removed immediately the programme has finished, the anti-crease phase will begin and the drum will turn at intervals to help prevent creasing.

Anti-crease will flash alternately with Finish in the display to indicate that the programme has finished.

^Press the a button to open the drum door.

^Remove the laundry.

Check that all items have been removed from the drum. Items left in the drum could discolour other items in the next wash or become discoloured themselves.

^Check the folds in the door seal for any small articles, e.g. buttons which might be lodged there.

^Close the drum door. Otherwise there is the danger of objects being placed inadvertently in the drum. If these remained unnoticed and were washed in the next load, they could damage the laundry.
