Caring for our environment

Disposal 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 they are offered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance or machine

Electrical and electronic appliances / 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 appliance or machine. Please do not therefore dispose of your old machine or appliance 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. The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.

Warning and safety instructions

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 of the machine.

Correct usage

Only use the washing 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 is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.

Technical safety

Before setting up the machine,

check it for any externally visible damage. Do not install and 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.

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

extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (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 technician. Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

Warning and safety instructions

The Miele "Waterproof system"

protects from water damage provided the following conditions have been met:

the machine is correctly plumbed in

–

and connected to the electricity supply.

if a fault has been identified, the

–

machine must be examined by a competent person before further use, and repaired if necessary.

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 appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.

Use

This equipment may only be used

in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Do not install your washing

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 fitting at the rear of the machine has been removed (see section on "Installation"). During spinning, a transit fitting 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. Otherwise this will result in flooding.

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.

Page 8

Warning and safety instructions

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. If in doubt, contact the Miele Customer Ser vice Dept. or your Miele Dealer.

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, e.g. those containing benzene, 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 domestic 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.

Always make sure the drum is

stationary before reaching in to remove washing. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.

Safety with children

This machine is not a toy! To avoid

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

machine.

For machines with a ‘porthole’

door, remember that the porthole glass will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do not let children touch it.

Accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted

when expressly approved by Miele. If other parts are used, guarantee, performance and product liability claims may be invalidated.

Disposal of your old machine

Before discarding an old machine

switch it off at the wall socket and unplug it. Render the plug useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse. This should be done by a competent person.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

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.

Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be cleaned 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.

If you use a solvent-based cleaning agent (e.g. one containing benzene) to pre-treat a stain, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) are protected, and that the cleaning agent is rinsed off before washing the garment in the machine.

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 first. 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)

Programme sequence

This washing machine has fully electronic controls with automatic load recognition. It takes in the right amount of water required for the programme depending on the amount of laundry and its absorbency rate. This means that programme cycles and durations can vary.

The programme sequences outlined below are based on the basic programme with a full load. Extras which can be selected have not been taken into account.

The programme sequence display shows the stage the programme has reached.

Special features in the programme sequences:

Anti-crease: At the end of every programme, with

the exception of

Woollens

, the drum continues to turn at intervals for up to 30 minutes to help prevent creasing. The door can be opened and laundry removed at any time during the anti-crease phase.

A third rinse is carried out if:

there is too much foam in the drum

– – a spin speed lower than 700 rpm has

been selected.

Without spin

Detergent

All modern detergents produced for automatic front loading washing machines are suitable, including liquid, compact (concentrated), tablets and special application detergents. Use dispensing aids, e.g. balls, if these are supplied with the detergent.

Woollens and knitwear containing wool mixtures and hand-washable garments should be washed using a detergent specifically designed for washing woollens.

Silk should be washed using a liquid detergent specifically designed for washing woollens. Do not use biological detergents on silk as the enzymes may damage the silk!

Add detergent according to the amount recommended on the packaging. Detergent designed for vertical axis top loading washing machines are not suitable for use in Miele washing machines as they may cause oversudsing.

The soiling level of the laundry.

–

Lightly soiled No visible dirt or stains. Possibly slight body odour.

Normally soiled Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight stains.

Heavily soiled Stains and soiling clearly visible.

Water softeners

A water softener such as Calgon can be used to cut down on the use of detergents in extremely hard water areas. Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging. First add detergent and then the water softener.

Use a quantity of detergent as for soft water.

Washing with several components

The right amount to dispense will depend on the following:

–

The quantity of laundry (follow the machine’s dispensing recommendation and reduce the amount of detergent with smaller loads as indicated on the display)

If you wash using several components (e.g. special application detergents), we recommend always dispensing the agents into compartment j in the following order:

1. Detergent

2. Water softener

3. Stain remover, e.g. Biotex This way the agents are distributed

more efficiently.

Page 31

Fabric conditioners and liquid starch

Fabric conditioners make garments soft and fluffy to handle and help prevent static cling when tumble drying.

Starch stiffens and gives body to items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen.

Dispense according to the amount

specified on the packaging.

Cleaning and care

Disconnect the machine from the

mains electricity supply and withdraw the plug from the socket before cleaning the machine.

The washing machine must not

be hosed down.

External casing and fascia panel

Clean the casing with a mild

non-abrasive cleaning agent or soap and water using a well wrung-out cloth. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

^ The drum can be cleaned using a

suitable proprietary stainless-steel cleaning agent following the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.

Extra cleaning

Carry out a hot wash (70°C or above) with powder detergent approx. every 6 weeks to help prevent deposits building up in the machine. These can occur when washing is mainly done at low temperatures, and also lead to unpleasant smells. If you have no reason to wash occasionally at this high temperature, then run a Cottons 95°C programme with detergent but no laundry at regular intervals.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

Remove detergent residues regularly.

Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-purpose cleaning agents. These might damage plastic surfaces and other components because of the chemicals they contain.

E-Cloth

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department, which is suitable for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals. It can be washed 300 times.

Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer until a resistance is felt. Press down the release catch and at the same time pull the drawer right out of the machine.

Clean the detergent drawer with warm water.

Page 33

Clean the siphon.

1. Remove the siphon from compartment § and rinse under warm running water. Clean the siphon tube in the same way.

2. Replace the siphon.

If starching frequently, thoroughly clean the siphon and siphon tube regularly. A build-up of starch will cause them to get clogged.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer housing

^ Use a bottle brush to remove

detergent residues and limescale from the jets inside the detergent dispenser drawer housing.

Page 34

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the filter in the water inlet

The washing machine has a filter to protect the water inlet valve.

The accessible filter in the union in the open end of the inlet hose should be checked every six months, or more often if there are frequent interruptions to the external water supply.

First turn off the stopcock.

Unscrew the threaded union

connecting the free end of the inlet hose to the stopcock.

^ Remove the rubber seal 1 from the

recess.

^ Using pointed pliers, take hold of the

plastic filter bar 2 and remove.

^ Clean the plastic filter. ^ Put the filter and seal back in the

reverse order and reconnect the hose.

Turn on the stopcock and check the connection is watertight. If water drips out, tighten the connection.

Never forget to put the filter back in place after cleaning.

Installation and connection

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface for a washing machine, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.

Please note the following points:

The machine must be level and

securely positioned. To avoid vibrations during spinning,

the machine should not be installed

on soft floor coverings. If installing on a wooden joist floor: ^ we recommend a plywood base

(at least 59x52x3 cm). The base

should span several joists and be

bolted to the joists and not only to the

floorboards. Check for the presence

of pipes and cables. If possible, install the machine in a

corner, as this is usually the most stable part of the floor.

Installing the washing machine

To manoeuvre the machine out of its packing case to its installation site hold it by the edge of the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the washing machine as well as by the handle recesses at the front.

Please note:

Do not lift the machine by the drum

door.

Ensure that the machine feet and

the floor are dry to prevent the machine from slipping during the spin cycle.

Removing the transit fittings

If the machine is installed on a raised plinth, it has to be secured against slippage during spinning using retaining clips (available from the Miele Spare Parts Dept).

To remove the left and right covers

1. Use a screwdriver to prise out the cover as illustrated.

2. Pull the cover forwards to remove.

Page 48

Installation and connection

Using the spanner supplied turn the

Fit the covers on to the two holes.

Then plug the holes as shown with the caps.

Installation and connection

The washing machine must not

be moved without the transit bars in place. Store the transit bars as shown or keep them in a safe place for future use. They must be re-fitted if the machine is to be moved again (e.g.when moving house).

Re-fitting the transit bars

Re-fitting is carried out by reversing the procedure.

Secure the transit bars to the back of the washing machine. Make sure that holes b are fitted over retainers a.

Page 50

Installation and connection

Levelling the machine

The machine must stand perfectly level on all four feet to ensure safe and proper operation.

Using the spanner supplied turn

counter nut 2 in a clockwise direction. Then turn counter nut 2 together with foot 1 to unscrew.

Incorrect installation may increase electricity and water consumption and may cause the machine to move about.

False values may also show in the Load % and Detergent % display.

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

The four adjustable screw feet are used to level the machine. All four feet are screwed in when the machine is delivered.

^ Use a spirit level to check the

machine is standing level.

^ Hold foot 1 securely with a pipe

wrench. Turn counter nut 2 again using the spanner supplied until it sits firmly up against the housing.

All four counternuts must be firmly up against the housing. Please also check this for the feet which did not need adjustment. Otherwise there is the danger of the machine moving about.

Page 52

Installation and connection

The Miele Waterproof system

The Miele Waterproof system protects all parts of the washing machine from water damage.

The system consists of three main components:

1) the inlet hoses

2) the electronic unit and the washing machine housing

3) the drain hose

1) Inlet hoses

– The inlet hoses are fitted with

additional electrical safety valves which work like automatic stopcocks and are housed in the inlet hose connection boxes.

– They are pressure proof to between

7000 and 10000 kPa.

– The inlet hoses have a protective

sleeve.

2) Electronic unit and washing machine housing

Sump

–

Any leaking water is collected in a sump in the base of the appliance. A float switches off the water inlet valves, preventing water flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.

Overflow protection

–

This prevents the washing machine taking in too much water. If the water level exceeds a certain level, the drain pump switches on and pumps the water away.

3) Drain hose

The drain hose is protected by a ventilation system which prevents the washing machine from being emptied completely.

Any leaking water from the inlet hose is fed into the sump through the protective covering which surrounds the inlet hose as a "second skin". The float switches off the safety valves, preventing water flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.

Page 53

Installation and connection

Connection to the water supply

The plastic casing of the safety

valve contains electrical components. The Waterproof system must only be connected to its own stopcock. It must not be connected to mixer taps or similar and must not be fitted in areas where there is the risk of water or other liquids reaching it. A flexible metal extension hose, available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department as an optional extra, should be used if necessary.

The machine should be connected to a mains water supply in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Connection to a household water softener is not recommended.

The machine is designed to operate with a flow pressure of between 100 and 1000 kPa. If it is higher than 1000 kPa it is essential to fit a reducer valve.

Connection to the mains water supply should incorporate a mains stopcock

with

/4" thread. The stopcock should

be fitted by a qualified plumber.

The connection points are

subject to mains water pressure. Turn on the stopcocks slowly and check for leaks. Correct the position of the washer and union if appropriate.

Maintenance and care

Do not dip into any liquid.

The protective sleeve of the hose must not be damaged or kinked.

Only use a Miele Waterproof system hose should you need a replacement.

In order to protect the water inlet valve, the dirt filter in the water inlet valve connection must not be removed.

Extension hose

A 1.5 metre long (metal) extension hose is available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department as an optional extra.

This hose is tested to withstand pressures of up to 14000 kPa and can be used as a flexible extension to the water supply.

Page 54

Installation and connection

Connection to the water supply

The washing machine must always be connected to the mains water supply (inlet hose with blue dots).

Cold water connection (mains water supply)

The inlet hose with blue dots is used for mains water connection.

Hot water connection

The inlet hose with red dots is used for connection to the hot water supply.

Useful hints when connecting to the hot and cold water supply.

The maximum temperature at the

–

stocpcock must not exceed 60C. The ideal temperature is 55C.

When connected to the hot (and

–

cold) water supply, after some time the washing machine will switch over to the mains (cold) water supply if no hot water is being supplied. However, this can lead to a poor washing result.

The conditions for connection are described on the following pages.

This appliance incorporates backflow protection complying with AS/NZS 3500.1.2. No further backflow protection required for connection to the water supply.

Page 55

Installation and connection

Connection to the drainage system

The machine drains via a drain pump with a delivery head of 1 metre*.

The drain hose must not be kinked as this restricts drainage. The swivel elbow at the end of the hose can be turned in either direction, or can be detached if required, with a sharp twist and pull.

If required, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 5 m. The necessary parts can be purchased from the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele dealer.

* For a delivery head of more than 1 m (up to a maximum of 1.8 m) a second duo-drain pump is available with the corresponding kit from the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele Dealer.

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink or basin:

Please note the following

Hook the hose over the edge and

–

secure. Make sure that the water can drain

–

away freely without hindrance. Otherwise there is a risk of water overflowing or of some of the drained water being sucked back into the machine.

2. Connected securely to a plastic drain pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no need to use a non-return valve.

3. Connected securely to a standpipe.

4. Connected securely to a floor gully.

Page 56

Installation and connection

Electrical connection

The washing machine is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug for connection to a 230-240V mains supply. The voltage, rated load and plug rating are given on the data plate. Please ensure these match the household mains supply.

The accesibility of the plug must be always ensured, in order to separate the washing machine from the mains.

All electrical work should be carried out only by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations.

For extra safety it is advisable to install a residual current device (RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA.

Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation work has been carried out.

Connection should be made via a suitable switching socket which is easily accessible after installation, in order to separate the washing machine from the mains.

Do not connect via an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
