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 IEC60335-1, 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.
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.
Children may not carry out cleaning or maintenance on the wash-
ing machine unsupervised.
Always supervise any children in the vicinity of the washing ma-
chine. Never allow children to play with the washing machine.
Disinfection programmes must not be interrupted, as this can
have a limiting effect on the disinfection result. It is the operator's re­sponsibility to ensure that the standard of disinfection in thermal as well as chemo thermal procedures is maintained by carrying out suit­able validation tests.
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”.
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 7.0kg. 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.

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.
Miele tumble dryers and Miele washing machines can be installed
as a washer-dryer stack. This requires a Miele washer-dryer stacking kit which can be purchased separately. Please ensure that the washer-dryer connection kit is suitable for the Miele tumble dryer and the Miele washing machine.
If installing the machine on a Miele plinth (available as an optional
accessory), please make sure you order the correct one for this washing machine.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these warning and safety instructions.

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.

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 10minutes.
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 chart.

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 30minutes 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.
51

Problem solving guide

An unsatisfactory wash result

Problem Cause 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

Problem Cause 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. Select the language you require (see “Language” un-

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 100kPa and must not ex­ceed 1000kPa. If the pressure exceeds 1000kPa, 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 7000kPa 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.

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 DN70 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 1m 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 5m. Accessories are available from Miele or from your Miele dealer.
For a drain height of more than 1m (up to a max. of 1.6m), a replacement drain pump is available from Miele or from your Miele dealer.

Electrical connection

This description applies to washing machines both with and without a mains plug.
The following applies to washing ma­chines with a mains plug:
- The washing machine is ready to be connected.
- The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply if neces­sary.

supply voltage. The data plate indicates the nominal
power consumption and the appro­priate fuse rating.
Compare the specifications on the data plate with those of the mains electricity supply and make sure that they match.
The washing machine may only be con­nected to a permanent electrical system that conforms to the national and local codes and regulations.
Do not connect the machine to an ex­tension lead or multi-socket adapter as they do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

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 3mm in the isolator switch (including mini­ature circuit breaker, switch, fuses and
