The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
Do not force the drum door open. The
door handle is fitted with an safety
device to ensure that the door lock functions
correctly.
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.
Testing must be carried out with the burner
switched on and switched off.
Using the washer-extractor
This machine is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are supervised
whilst using it or have been shown how to
use it correctly by a person responsible for
their safety.
This machine is not a toy! To avoid the
risk of injury never allow children to play
on or near the machine, or to operate it
themselves.
Remember that the porthole glass will be
hot when washing at very high
temperatures. Do not let children touch it.
Always close the door after use. This
way you will avoid the danger of:
– children climbing onto or into the dryer or
hiding things in it.
– pets or other small animals climbing into it.
The best materials are used in the
manufacture of this machine, and every
care is taken to check all parts. However,
with time, deterioration of parts can occur,
especially with such components as hoses,
giving rise to leaks. Check the inlet hoses
regularly for signs of wear and tear. Change
in good time to avoid the risk of leaks and
subsequent damage.
Local regulations regarding regular
inspection and maintenance of this
machine must be observed. A log book
should be kept with the machine.
Gas-heated washer-extractors
Important After installation, maintenance,
conversion, repairs and before using for the
first time it is essential that a test for possible
leakages is carried out. All components
which carry gas must be checked, including
the gas valve and burner jets.
Particular attention must be paid to the test
nipple on the gas valve.
Always make sure that the drum is
stationary before reaching into the
machine to remove laundry. Reaching into a
moving drum is extremely dangerous.
Take care in the area of the hinges of the
drum door. Danger of injury.
The drum door must be able to be
opened to its fullest extent. This area
must not be restricted by doors or structural
features.
The water used for washing is a suds
solution and is not drinking water.
The suds solution must be drained away via
an appropriate drainage system.
The washer-extractor may only be
operated without supervision if there is a
floor drain (gully) in the immediate vacinity.
M.-Nr. 06 533 414 5
Warning and Safety instructions
It is the operator's responsiblity to ensure
that the standard of disinfection in thermal
as well as chemo thermal procedures is
maintained (in accordance with § 18 IFSG and
national health and safety regulations) by
carrying out suitable validation tests. These
procedures should be checked on a regular
basis, either thermo-electrically using loggers,
or bacteriologically with bio indicators. The
operator must pay particular attention to
maintaining the correct parameters in the
procedure, including temperature and with
chemo thermal programmes, the chemical
concentration used. Disinfection programmes
must not be interrupted, as this can have a
limiting effect on the disinfection result.
It is particularly important to observe
manufacturer's instructions when using a
combination of cleaning agents and special
application products. Only use the product
for the application described by the
manufacturer, to avoid any material damage
or the occurrence of strong chemical
reactions.
Confirm with the detergent manufacturer that
their product can be used in combination
with another type of product.
Only use dyes, colour run and dye
removers specified as being suitable for
use in washing machines. Always observe
the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Laundry that was soiled with biological
oils or fat should be washed using a
suitable detergent and /or wash programme.
It must also be inspected after washing. If
oils or fat are not sufficiently removed they
could cause the laundry to self ignite during
the drying process. This type of soiling
should be removed using specialist
detergents and/or programmes.
Do not use a pressure washer or hose to
clean the machine.
Further notes
Cleaning and disinfecting agents often
contain chlorine-based substances. Do
not let such agents come into contact with
the stainless steel surfaces, as the chlorine
can have a corrosive effect. Use
chlorine-free agents for washing and
disinfecting and also for cleaning stainless
steel surfaces to protect them from
corrosion.
If in doubt, confirm with the manufacturer
that their product is suitable. If any agent
containing chlorine comes into contact with
the stainless steel surfaces, wipe it away
immediately with clean water. Then dry with
a soft cloth.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the effect of a chemical cleaning
agent on laundry or the machine, even when
the use of such agents is recommended.
Please note that changes to the product
which have not been made known by the
manufacturer can affect the quality of the
wash result.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted when
expressly approved by Miele. If spare
parts or accessories from other
manufacturers are used, this will invalidate
the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept
liability.
Any additional components used, e.g.
suction devices for liquid agents,
electronic water meters or dispenser
monitors, must conform to Safety Class II.
If connected to an external PC,
this must conform to
EN 60950-1:2001 (IEC 60950-1:2001).
6 M.-Nr. 06 533 414
Warning and Safety instructions
Chlorine and component damage
Notes on using chlorine bleach and
perchlorethylene
Frequent use of chlorine increases the
risk of component damage.
The use of agents containing chlorine, such
as sodium hypochlorite and chlorine bleach
in powder form, can damage the protective
upper surface of stainless steel and cause
corrosion to components. Factors affecting
this are chlorine concentration levels,
contact time and temperature. It is therefore
advisable to avoid the use of such agents.
Oxygen based bleaching agents should be
used instead.
If, however, chlorine based bleaching
agents have to be used for particular types
of soiling, then anti-chlorine measures must
also be carried out. If this is not done
irreparable damage can occur to
components in the machine and to laundry.
Disposing of your old machine
Before disposing of an old machine, first
make the door lock unusable. This way
you will prevent children from accidentally
locking themselves in and endangering their
lives.
All personnel working with this machine
must be fully trained in all aspects of its
use and safety.
Keep these instructions in a safe and
accessible place.
Anti-chlorine treatment
Anti-chlorine treatment has to be carried out
immediately after chlorine bleach has been
used. The use of hydrogen peroxide or an
oxygen based cleaning or bleaching agent
is recommended and the laundry should not
be drained in between.
With thiosulfate, especially when used with
hard water, gypsum can form, which can
lead to incrustations on laundry or deposits
in the machine. The use of hydrogen
peroxide is preferable as it aids the chorline
neutralising process.
The exact quantity of additives and the
treatment temperatures required must be set
and tested on site in accordance with the
dosage recommendations of the detergent
and additive manufacturers. The laundry
must also be tested to check whether it
contains any active chlorine residues.
M.-Nr. 06 533 414 7
Caring for the environment
Disposing of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the
machine during transportation. The materials
used are environmentally friendly for
disposal.
Rather than just throwing these materials
away, please ensure that they are recycled.
Packaging materials such as plastic
,
film and bags must be kept out of the
reach of babies and children. Danger of
suffocation.
Disposing 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 dispose of your old it with your
general waste.
Tips on saving energy
To save energy and water, try to load the
maximum for the programme selected.
Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading
gives a poorer quality of wash result and
may cause unnecessary creasing.
Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly
spun before drying. This saves time and
energy.
Carrying out the final rinse with hot water
helps to reduce the residual moisture level,
and the residual heat in the laundry will help
keep processing time down in the dryer,
thus saving energy.
Follow detergent manufacturer's advice
regarding the right amount of detergent to
use.
This will depend on the size of the load, the
water hardness level and the amount of
soiling in the laundry.
Chose the correct programme (with
pre-wash or intensive options selected) and
the correct temperature.
Please dispose of it at your local community
waste collection/recycling centre.
Please contact your dealer, your local waste
collection centre or scrap merchant about
recycling schemes.
Please store it out of the reach of children
whilst awaiting disposal.

in the compartment designated for them.
This is to ensure that the agent is added
automatically at the second rinse. Liquid
bleaching agents should only be used with
coloureds if the textile manufacturer's wash
care label states that the textile is colour fast
and suitable for bleaching.
A 3rd rinse cycle must be programmed in
if bleach is to be used (see Profitronic
programming manual).
Detergent dispensing
It is important to avoid adding too much
detergent as this causes excessive foam.
Do not use detergents which create a lot
–
of foam.
Follow the detergent manufacturer's
–
instructions for use.
The right amount to dispense will depend on
the following:
The amount of laundry
–
The water hardness level
–
The soiling level of the laundry
–
The amount to dispense
Take the water hardness into account and
follow the detergent manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging.

Frequent use of chlorine increases the
risk of component damage.
Only use dyes, colour run, dye removers
and descaling agents which are specified
as being suitable for use in washing
machines. Always observe the
manufacturer's instructions carefully.

IV very hard above 3.8 above 21
Check with your local water supplier if you
do not know the hardness level in your area.
Gas heated machines
On gas heated machines the suds solution
is pumped around the heater elements. This
additional agitation of the suds solution
creates foam. It is therefore important to use
a low-foaming detergent and not to use too
much detergent.
If over-foaming occurs use a reduced foam
detergent or call in a detergent application
specialist.
