IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by improper use of this appliance.
Read the operating instructions before using this machine for the first time. They contain important information about the safety, use and maintenance of the machine. Doing so will prevent injury and damage to the dryer.
Save these instructions and pass them on to any future user.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
Technical Safety
Check the packaging, the washer and accessories for any signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (fusing, voltage and frequency) match the mains electrical supply. If in doubt contact an electrician.
The appliance must be grounded. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply with an extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements. Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user which is not covered by the manufacturer. Repairs should only be performed by a Miele approved technician.
Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being performed. The machine is only completely isolated from the electrical supply when it is turned off at the main switch and the plug is pulled or by tripping the circuit breaker.
Connect the washer, to the water mains. Do not use old hoses. Inspect the intake hoses regularly for damage. They should be replaced as needed to prevent water damage.
Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele spare parts to maintain safety standards. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.
If the power cord is damaged it must only be replaced by a Miele Service technician with a genuine Miele power cord.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use
The washer must be operated, maintained and checked for function on a regular basis according to the Operating and Installation instructions.
Only use the washing machine to wash items which are specified by the manufacturer to be machine washable on the fabric care label. Any other applications may cause undesirable results. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use of the appliance.
Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned, washed soaked or spotted with gasoline, organic substances dry-cleaning solvents, or any other flammable substances. These articles give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Do not add these items to the washload.
This appliance is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile installations such as recreational vehicles or aircraft. However, under certain conditions it may be possible for installation in these applications. Please contact the Miele Technical Service Department with specific requirements.
Do not install this machine in rooms where temperatures below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst under pressure. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing.
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the shipping struts at the rear of the machine have been removed (see "Installation"). If the shipping struts are still in place during spinning, damage may result to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Turn off the water supply if the machine is to be left for any length of time (e.g. vacation).
Overflow hazard!
Check that the drain can accommodate the water flow before operating the washer.
Make certain the drain hose is secured in the drain, otherwise the force of the expelled water could cause the drain hose to come out of the drain.
Be sure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do not find their way into the machine. These items may damage the machine, which may also cause damage to the laundry.
Persons which lack physical, sensory or mental abilities or experience with the machine should not use it without supervision or instruction by a responsible person.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine should not need to be descaled. If the washer needs to be descaled, use a descaling agent with corrosion protection. These special descaling agents can be purchased from the Miele Service department. Use as directed.
Never use solvent based cleaning agents in this machine, this may result in damage and create toxic fumes.
They will present a fire and explosion hazard.
Items which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed in the machine.
Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in a washing machine. Use as directed by the manufacturer.
Dye removers may contain sulphur compounds which cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use dye removers in this machine.
The drum door glass will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do not touch the glass. Danger of burns!
The stainless steel casing must not come in contact with liquid cleaning or disinfection agents containing chlorine. They may cause corrosion. Do not store open containers of this agent next to the machine.
Children
Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
Do not let children access the appliance or its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm. If allowing older children to use the appliance without supervision please ensure that they are aware of how the appliance works and understand the dangers of improper use.
Using accessories
Accessories must only be installed once approved by Miele. Installing unapproved parts may void the warranty and product liability.
Disposal of an old appliance
Disconnect the machine from the electrical supply. Render the plug useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by non observance of the Important Safety Instructions in this manual.

Too much detergent may cause:
–oversudsing with minimal drum movement; poor wash, rinse and spin results.
–higher environmental burden.
See "Detergent" for more information.

Program sequence
The washer is equipped with an electronic control which determines the load size automatically. The washer determines the required water consumption for each load depending on quantity and water absorbency of the laundry. Different program sequences and wash times will result.
The program sequence shown here represents the basic program with a maximum load. Possible "Extras" are not considered.
The washer’s sequence display will indicate the current cycle of the selected wash programs.
Special features in the program sequence:
Anti-crease
The drum continues to turn up to
30 minutes after the program ends to prevent creases. The washer can be opened at any time. Exception: The program "Woollens" has no anti-crease feature.
1)Pre-rinse
To rinse dust, a pre-wash without detergent is automatically added to the program.
2)High Spin
Before the wash program starts, a high spin is carried out to remove air
from the pillows. After the spin the water is taken in by compartment for the main wash.
3)Outerwear
The items will be spun only after the main wash.
4)Pre-rinse
To remove heavy soiling the laundry will be pre-rinsed twice.
