Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and
safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if
disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that
may be stored on the appliance being
disposed of. Please ensure that your
old appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.

Warning and safety instructions
This washing machine complies with all current local and national
safety requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to personal injury and damage to property.
Read the operating instructions carefully before using the washing
machine. They contain important information on safety, installation, use and maintenance. This prevents both personal injury and
damage to the washing machine.
In accordance with standard IEC60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the
chapter on installing the washing machine as well as the safety instructions and warnings.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these instructions.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them
on to any future owner.
When instructing other people how to use the washing machine,
they must be made aware of these safety and warning instructions.
Appropriate use
The washing machine is only suitable for washing fabrics with a
care label stating that they are suitable for machine washing. Any
other applications may be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be
held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or
operation of the machine.
This washing machine must be used as described in the operating
instructions and must be checked on a regular basis to make sure it
is functioning correctly. Maintenance must be carried out when necessary.
The washing machine is not suitable for outdoor use.
This washing machine may also be operated in public areas.
7
Warning and safety instructions
This washing machine can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown
how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequences of incorrect operation.
Children under the age of 8 must not be allowed near the washing
machine unless they are constantly supervised.
Children over the age of 8 may only use the washing machine
without supervision if its operation has been clearly explained to
them and they are able to use it safely. Children must be able to understand and recognise the possible dangers caused by incorrect
operation.

Warning and safety instructions
Technical safety
Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally
visible damage. Do not set up or use a damaged washing machine.
The electrical safety of the washing machine can only be guaran-
teed when correctly earthed.
It is most important that this basic safety requirement is tested and
in case of any doubt the on-site wiring system should be inspected
by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system.
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,
otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty.
Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
The machine must be isolated from the electricity supply when
cleaning and maintaining the machine and in the event of a fault:
- switch off at the wall and disconnect the plug from the socket, or
- disconnect the fuse at the mains circuit board, or
- unscrew the on-site screw-in fuse.
See “Installation – Electrical connection”.
9
Warning and safety instructions
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from
danger.
The washing machine must only be connected to the on-site wa-
ter supply using a new hose kit. Old hoses must not be re-used.
Check the hose regularly for signs of wear. Replace it in good time to
avoid the risk of leaks and subsequent damage.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-
ginal spare parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of
the machine when Miele replacement parts are used.
For reasons of safety, do not connect the machine to the mains
electricity supply by an extension lead, multi-socket adapter, or similar. These can overheat and are a fire hazard.
In the case of commercial use, all relevant national provisions and
regulations (DGUV in Germany) relating to accident insurance are applicable to this machine. It is recommended to carry out testing in
accordance with national regulations (e.g. the regulatory framework
described in DGUV100-500/Chapter 2.6/Section 4). The test book
required for the documentation is available from Miele.
The machine must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
Please observe the instructions in “Installation” and “Technical
data”.
If the washing machine is equipped with an electrical plug con-
nection, it must be easily accessible after installation so that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply if necessary.
10
Warning and safety instructions
If the appliance is hard wired, an on-site all pole circuit breaker
must always be accessible to disconnect the washing machine from
the mains.
This washing machine is supplied with a special lamp to cope
with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must
only be used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for
room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised person or the Miele Service Department.
Reliable and safe operation of this washing machine can only be
assured if it has been correctly connected to the mains electricity
supply.
Correct use
The maximum dry laundry weight is 7.0kg. The maximum recom-
mended loads for individual programmes are given in the Programme
chart.
Do not install your washing machine in a room where temperat-
ures 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 washing machine have been removed (see “Installation – Removing transit bars”). During spinning, transit bars
which are still in place may result in damage to both the machine
and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Close the stopcock if the machine is to be left for any length of
time (e.g. while on holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully)
in the immediate vicinity.
11
Warning and safety instructions
Danger of flooding! If hooking the drain hose into a wash basin,
check that the water can drain off quickly enough to prevent the sink
from overflowing. Hook the hose over the edge and secure. If the
hose is unsecured, the force of the water flowing out of it can dislodge it from the basin.
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, pa-
per clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds container, drum). Damaged components can damage 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
it, only use special non-corrosive descaling agents and strictly observe the instructions on the packaging. Special descaling agent is
available from your Miele dealer or from Miele Service. Strictly observe the instructions for the descaling agent.
For textiles that have been treated with solvent-based detergents,
always check whether they can be washed in a washing machine. To
check whether this is possible, refer to safety notes, information concerning the product's environmental properties, and other information.
Never use solvent based detergents, e.g. those containing ben-
zine, in this machine. Doing so may result in damage to component
parts and create toxic fumes. Risk of fire and explosion.
Benzine, petrol, paraffin, or any easily flammable liquid must not
be stored or used near the machine. Risk of fire and explosion
12
Warning and safety instructions
Only use dyes suitable for use in a washing machine. Always ob-
serve 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 washing machine.
Avoid contact between stainless steel surfaces (front, lid, casing)
and liquid detergents or disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or
sodium hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on
stainless steel. Aggressive vapours containing chlorine can also be
corrosive. Do not store open containers of these agents near the machine.
Do not use a pressure washer or hose to clean the washing ma-
chine.
It is particularly important to observe 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.
If detergent has come into contact with the eyes, rinse out imme-
diately with plenty of lukewarm water. If detergent has accidentally
been ingested, seek medical advice immediately. People with damaged or sensitive skin should avoid contact with detergent.
When adding or removing laundry during the main wash, your skin
may come into contact with detergent, particularly if the detergent is
dispensed externally. Take care when placing your hands inside the
drum. If suds have come into contact with the skin, rinse off immediately with lukewarm water.
13
Warning and safety instructions
Accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by
Miele. If other parts are used, warranty, performance, and product liability claims will be invalidated.

1. Preparing the laundry
Emptying pockets
Empty all pockets.
Damage due to foreign objects.
Nails, coins, paper clips, and so on
can cause damage to garments and
components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing
and remove any foreign objects.
Sorting the laundry
Sort the laundry according to colour
and the garment care label.
Pre-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains should
be cleaned as soon as possible.
Spillages should be carefully dabbed
off using a soft, colourfast cloth.
Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based detergents.
When using solvent-based deter-
gents, an explosive mixture may develop.
Never use solvent-based detergents
in the washing machine.
General tips
- Do not machine wash items which
are specified by the manufacturer as
not washable on the care label ().
- Curtains: remove rollers and lead
weights or place in a laundry bag.
- Sew in or remove any loose underwiring in bras.
- Turn garments inside out, if recommended by the manufacturer.
- Zip up or close any jackets with Velcro or hook and eye fastenings before
washing.
- Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from becoming
rolled up inside them.
- Please refer to the Programme chart
for more tips and tricks.
Damage due to solvent-based
detergents.
Detergents containing benzine, stain
remover, etc., can damage plastic
parts.
When pre-treating textiles, make sure
that any plastic parts do not come
into contact with the detergent.
26
2. Loading the washing machine
Opening the door
Reach under the door grip and pull
the door open.
Check the drum for foreign objects
before loading it with laundry.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely
into the drum.
Mixing both large and small items gives
better wash results and also helps to
distribute the load evenly during spinning.
Closing the door
Make sure that no items are caught
between the door and the seal.
The most efficient use of energy and
water is achieved when a full load is
washed. However, do not overload as
this reduces cleaning efficiency and
causes creasing.
Shut the door with a gentle swing.

Extras
You can add Extras to the wash programmes.
Not all Extras can be selected with
every programme. If an Extra is not listed, it is not permitted for use with the
wash programme in question.
Selecting Extras
Touch the Extras sensor control.
Select one or more of the Extras
available.
Confirm with the OK sensor control if
several Extras are available.
Pre-wash
A Pre-wash can be added for heavily
soiled laundry. Coarse soiling is
loosened and removed before the main
wash.
Pre-rinse
The laundry is rinsed before the main
wash to remove larger quantities of soiling, e.g. dust, sand.
Rinse plus
An extra rinse can be activated to
achieve a better wash result.
Intensive
For hard-wearing laundry that is very
heavily soiled. Cleaning efficiency is increased through more intense mechanical action and the application of more
heat energy.
Water plus
The water level in the main wash and
the rinses will be increased.
Pre-ironing
In order to reduce creasing, the laundry
undergoes a smoothing process at the
end of the programme. Reducing the
maximum load by 50% will achieve a
better result. Small loads achieve a better result.
The textiles must be suitable for drying
in a tumble dryer and suitable for
ironing .
Rinse hold
The laundry is not spun after the final
rinse and remains in the rinse water.
This helps prevent creasing if the laundry is not going to be removed from the
drum immediately after the end of the
programme.
Soak
For heavily soiled and stained items
with protein stains. The soak duration is
10minutes.
50
Starch stop
Water is drained out of the machine before the last rinse and the programme
stops. The prepared starch is added
directly to the drum. The programme is
continued with the Start/Stop sensor
control.
Special features in the programme sequence
Spinning
Final spin speed
When a programme is selected, the
maximum spin speed for this wash programme is shown in the display.
You can reduce the final spin speed.
However, you cannot select a final spin
speed higher than that shown in the

Interim spin
There is a spin cycle after the main
wash and between the rinses. A reduction in the final spin speed will also reduce the interim spin speed as appropriate.
Omitting the interim spin and the final spin
Select the programme setting Spin
speed 0.
After the last rinse, the water will be
pumped away and the anti-crease
phase will switch on.
Anti-crease
At the end of the programme, the drum
continues to turn at intervals for up to
30minutes to help prevent creasing.
The washing machine can be opened at
any time.
There is no anti-crease phase at the
end of some programmes.

Problem solving guide
An unsatisfactory wash result
ProblemCause and remedy
Liquid detergent does
not give the required
result.
White residues which
look like powder detergent are seen on dark
textiles after washing.
Textiles with particularly
greasy soiling are not
properly clean.
Liquid detergents usually contain no bleaching
agents. They do not remove fruit, coffee, and tea
stains.
Use a general purpose powder detergent contain-
ing a bleaching agent.
Pour stain removers into the drawer in the dis-
penser compartment and liquid detergent into a
dispenser ball.
Never put stain removers and liquid detergent to-
gether in the dispenser drawer.
The detergent contained compounds (zeolites) to aid
water softening which are not soluble in water. These
have ended up on the laundry.
Try to brush off the residues with a soft brush once
the laundry is dry.
In future, wash dark textiles using a detergent
which contains no zeolites. Liquid detergents usually contain no zeolites.
Select a programme with pre-wash. Use liquid de-
tergent for the pre-wash.
Continue to use universal powder detergent for the
main wash.
Grey, greasy particles
cling to washed laundry.
60
The use of heavy-duty detergent is recommended in
the main wash for very heavily soiled work clothing.
Please seek advice from the detergent manufacturer.
Insufficient amounts of detergent were used. The
laundry was heavily soiled with grease (oils, ointments).
Use more detergent or use liquid detergent with
this type of soiled laundry.
Before washing the next load, run a 60°C pro-
gramme with liquid detergent but without a load.
General problems
ProblemCause and remedy
The machine shakes
during the spin cycle.
Strange pump noises
can be heard.
Large amounts of detergent residue remain in the detergent
dispenser drawer.
Fabric softener is not
completely dispensed
or too much water remains in the compartment.
The display is in a different language.
The laundry has not
been spun properly.
The laundry is still
wet.
The drum remains
stationary but the
programme keeps
running.
The machine feet are not level and not secured.
Level the machine and adjust the feet correctly.
This is not a fault. These slurping noises occur at the
start and end of a pump sequence as a normal part of
the operation.
The water pressure is too low.
Clean the filters in the water inlet.
Powder detergent used in conjunction with water
softeners tends to become sticky.
Clean the detergent dispenser drawer and, in future,
add detergent into the drawer first, and then add the
water softener.
The siphon tube is not correctly positioned or is
clogged.
Clean the siphon, see “Cleaning and care – Cleaning
the detergent dispenser compartment”.
A different language has been selected.
Switch the washing machine off and on again.
The selected operator language appears in the display.
The operator language has been changed.

Installation
Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface, being far less prone
to vibration during the spin cycle than
wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.
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:
Install the machine on a plywood
base (at least 70x60x3cm). The
base should span several joists and
be bolted to the joists and not only to
the floorboards.
Tip: If possible, install the machine in a
corner of the room. This is usually the
most stable part of the floor.

Water connection
Cold water connection
The washing machine should be connected to a mains water supply in accordance with current local and national
safety regulations. The German authorities do not require it to have a non-return valve as the washing machine has
been designed to comply with DIN regulations.
In the U.K. both the hot and cold water supplies must be connected to
the mains water connection with the
provided double check valve. Hot
water temperature must not exceed
60 °C.
The flow pressure must amount to a
minimum of 100kPa and must not exceed 1000kPa. If the pressure exceeds
1000kPa, a pressure reducing valve
must be installed.
For the connection, a stopcock with a
¾" screw thread is required. If this type
of stopcock is not available, only a
qualified installer may connect the
washing machine to the mains water
supply.
Switching to cold water operation
If the washing machine is not connected to a hot water point, you will have to
configure the settings Main wash water,
Pre-wash water and Rinse water to cold
(see “Supervisor level”).
Unscrew the hot water hose.
Screw on the stopper provided.
Maintenance
Only use genuine Miele hoses that have
been tested to withstand pressure of at
least 7000kPa should you ever need a
replacement.
A filter is located in the intake point
to protect the water inlet valve.
Neither filter may be removed.
Hose extension
Longer hoses are available from Miele
or from your Miele dealer as accessories.
The connection point is subject to
mains water pressure.
Turn on the stopcock slowly and
check for leaks. Correct the position
of the washer and screw thread if appropriate.
78
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Hot water connection*
The hot water temperature must not exceed 70°C (60 °C in the UK).
To minimise energy consumption during
operation with hot water, the washing
machine should be connected to a suitable hot water ring circuit. So-called
“transmission pipes” (single pipes to
hot water generators) can result in any
water remaining in the pipes cooling
down if not in constant use. More energy would then be consumed to heat
the liquid up again.
The same connection requirements as
for cold water also apply to hot water.
The inlet hose is connected to the stopcock.
The washing machine cannot only be
connected to a hot water connection.
* Some machine versions do not come
with a hot water hose.
Switching to hot water operation
If the washing machine is due to be
connected to a hot water point, you can
configure the settings Main wash water,
Pre-wash water and Rinse water to hot
(see “Supervisor level”).
Unscrew the stopper from the hot
water valve.
Screw on the hot water hose.

Drainage
Drain valve
The machine is drained using a motorised drain valve. A DN70 angle connector can be used for draining the machine via an on-site floor drain (gully
with odour trap).
Drain pump
The suds are drained through a drain
pump with a 1m delivery head. For the
water to drain freely, the hose must be
free of kinks. The elbow piece (accessory) can be hooked onto the end of the
hose.
Drainage options
1. Connected securely to a plastic drain
pipe with a rubber nipple (there is no
need to use a siphon).
2. Connected securely to a washbasin
with a plastic nipple.
3. Connected securely to a floor drain
(gully).
If required, the hose can be extended to
a length of up to 5m. Accessories are
available from Miele or from your Miele
dealer.
For a drain height of more than 1m (up
to a max. of 1.6m), a replacement drain
pump is available from Miele or from
your Miele dealer.

connection process must be performed
by a qualified electrician.
The plug connector or isolator switch
should be easily accessible at all times.
Risk of electric shock.
If the washing machine is disconnected from the mains, protective measures must be taken to ensure that the
point of disconnection cannot accidentally be switched on again.
Make sure the isolator is lockable or
the point of disconnection is monitored at all times.
New connections, modifications to the
system, or servicing of the earthing
conductor, including determining the
correct fuse amperage, must be carried
out by a qualified electrician, as they
are familiar with the pertinent regulations and the specific requirements of
the electric utility company.
If converting the washing machine to
an alternative voltage, observe the
instructions in the wiring diagram.
Conversion must be performed by
Miele Service or by an authorised
Miele dealer.
If the machine is hard wired, an all pole
circuit breaker must be provided onsite. When switched off there must be
an all-pole contact gap of at least 3mm
