Caring for the environment

Caring for the environment

Caring for the environment means sav­ing water, energy and detergent when
washing. This machine is equipped
with the Hydromatic System and the
Ball Valve for economical use of re­sources. These systems offer a variety
of technical innovations e.g. the drum
ribs, which are designed to enable
economical washing without compromi­sing on results.

The automatic load control facility en­ables loads of between 1 and 5 kg to
be washed using only as much water
and electricity as is required for an ef­fective wash.

Spinning at the high speed of
1200 rpm reduces drying times and en­ergy consumption if laundry is dried in
a tumble dryer after washing.

Economy tips

To help you wash most economically,
remember the following tips:

Always wash with the maximum
laundry load specified for each pro­gramme. This uses the energy to the
best advantage.

Only use the correct amount of deter­gent required for the water hardness
level in your area, as recommended
by the manufacturer.

If laundry is not heavily stained, se­lect a lower temperature setting than
indicated on the laundry care label
(but when using a lower temperature
do not select the “short”-option).

Lightly soiled laundry can be
washed using a “short”-programme
(additional temperature reduction
not recommended).

5

Before using for the first time

Important:
the appliance must be properly in­stalled and connected to the water
and electricity supply according to
local and national regulations.

For further information read the instruc­tions on pages 31 - 37

Check that the transit fitting at the
rear has been removed.

Before using for the first time prime
the ball valve as follows:

Switch on the machine.
Turn the selector switch to “Starch”.
Once the drum starts turning: set the

programme selector to “Drain”.
When the water has drained: turn the

programme selector to the “Fin­ish/Start” position.

Switch the machine off.

The ball valve is operational.

Any residual lubricants and water
from testing still in the machine
should be flushed out as follows:

Do not load any laundry in the ma­chine.
Add a little detergent to compart­ment j.
Switch on the machine.
Turn the programme selector switch
to the “Cottons 60°C” programme.
Press the “Short” button.
The residues will have been flushed
out once the programme has fin­ished.

Water hardness reminder.

The amount of detergent will depend
on various factors including the water
hardness level in your area. Set the
water hardness dial located in the
detergent dispenser box as a reminder.

Turn the dial to the required setting.
Use the spatula supplied with the
machine. It is located at the rear of
the dispenser drawer facia (see
page 23).

If you do not know how hard the water
is in your catchment area, please con­tact your local water authority.

Warning and Safety Instructions

This appliance is designed and in­tended only for normal household use
in the U.K. It should never be operated
by children. Supervise its use by the el­derly or infirm.

Read the operating instructions through
before using this machine for the first
time, as this is for your safety and the
protection of the machine. They give
notes on the safety, the use and the
maintenance of the machine.

Further warning and safety instructions
are given in the text as appropriate.

...before using for the first time

Do not install your washing ma-

chine in rooms where sub-zero
temperatures may occur. Frozen hoses
may burst under pressure.
The reliability of the electronic control
system 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 page 31).
During spinning, a transit fitting which
is still in position may result in damage
to both the machine and adjacent furni­ture or appliances.

If the drain hose is attached to a

wash basin or sink, make sure it is
secure, (see illustration in the sec­tion“Guide to the machine”),
so that the force of the water flowing
out of the hose does not dislodge it, as
this will otherwise result in flooding.
If hooking the hose into a wash basin,
check that the water can drain off

quickly enough to prevent the sink from
overflowing.

Keep these operating instructions
in a safe place.

...when using your machine

Only wash items which are de-

clared by the manufacturer to be
machine-washable on the care label
(textile care G.B. laundry care, AUS),
(see Care labels on page 10).

Descaling agents contain acid.

Only use proprietary non-corrosive
descaling agents and strictly observe
the manufacturer’s instructions. After
descaling, always run several full rinse
cycles to remove any acid residue and
to protect component parts from corro­sion.

Never use detergents containing

solvents in this machine, as this
may result in damage to component
parts and create toxic fumes. Such
detergents also pose a fire and explo­sion hazard.

Textiles which have been pre-

treated in detergents containing
solvents must be thoroughly rinsed in
clean water before being washed in
this machine.

Do not use dye removers as these

contain sulphur compounds which
may damage washing machines.

7

War n ing and Safety Instructions

Dyes must be specified as suitable

for use in washing machines. Al­ways observe the manufacturer’s in­structions.

If washing at very high tempera-

tures remember that the porthole
glass will be hot.
Do not let children touch it during a
wash programme.

The machine should only be oper-

ated unsupervised if there is a floor
drain in the immediate vicinity.

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. This should be borne in mind if
operating the machine without supervi­sion. Check the hose regularly for signs
of wear, and change in good time, to
avoid leaks and subsequent damage.

...in the event of faults

Electrical appliances should only

be repaired by suitably competent
personnel. Incorrectly repaired ma­chines may pose a considerable risk to
the user.

Disconnect the machine from the

mains power supply by switching
off at the wall socket, unplugging, or
withdrawing the mains fuse.

Always make sure the drum is sta-

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

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,

paper clips etc.) can cause dam­age to textiles and components in the
machine. Take care to empty all
pockets etc. so that these do not go
into the machine.

8

Empty all pockets.

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,
paper clips etc.) can cause dam­age to textiles and components in
the machine.

Sort the laundry

Most garments have a textile care label
in the collar or side seam. Sort the
laundry by care label symbols.
Only wash items in this machine which
are declared by the manufacturer as
being machine washable on the textile
care label.
Dark textiles often contain“excess
dye,” and should be washed separ­ately several times before being in­cluded in a mixed load.
Delicate textiles should be washed sep­arately in a delicates programme.
Only wash textiles made from wool or
wool mixtures if they are declared as
being suitable for machine washing on
the textile care label.

Preparing the wash load

Pre-treating the washing

Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and
cuffs, and water soluble stains, can be
pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter­gent or detergent mixed into a solution
or paste.
With particularly stubborn stains ask
your Dry Cleaner for advice.
Do not use detergents containing sol­vents in this machine.

Loading the drum

Unfold laundry and load loosely in the
drum. To achieve best results it is advis­able to make up mixed loads consist­ing of both large and small items. This
improves the washing effect and helps
distribute the load evenly to keep the
machine stable and reduce the noise
level during spinning.
It is advisable to weigh the load first to
make best use of the machine’s capac­ity.

Maximum load weights are noted
below:

COTTONS. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5.0 kg

MINIMUM IRON . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.5 kg

DELICATES/SYNTHETICS. . . . . 1.0 kg

WOOL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.0 kg

QUICK WASH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.5 kg

With curtains: Remove lead weights
and strips or place in a laundry bag.
Woollens and knitted garments should
be turned inside out if the manufacturer
recommends it.

Close the drum door

Make sure that there is no obstruction
between the drum door and seal.

Adding detergent

All modern detergents produced for
automatic washing machines are suit­able, including liquid, compact (con­centrated) and special application
detergents. Use dispensing aids e.g.
balls if these are supplied with the
detergent. Woollens and knitware con­taining wool mixtures should be
washed using a detergent specifically
designed for washing woollens.

Add the right amount of detergent as
recommended on the packaging The
amount dispensed will depend on the
following:

– the quantity of laundry
– the water hardness level
– the level of soiling

It is important to dispense the cor­rect amount, because...

...too little detergent results in the follow­ing:

– The laundry will not get properly

clean and will in time become grey

and hard to the touch.
– Greasy particles cling to the laundry.
– Lime deposits on the heater ele-

ments.

...too much detergent results in the fol­lowing:

Water is taken in through compartment
j in the main wash. If the capacity of
compartment j is insufficient for the
amount of detergent needed where
water hardness is above 380 mg/l (in
hardness area 4), the Customer Ser­vice Engineer can adjust the machine
so that water can also be taken in
through compartment i to take deter­gent into the main wash.

Water Softeners

A water softener can be used to cut
down on the use of detergents in water
hardness ranges 2 - 4. Dispense ac­cording to the amount specified on the
packaging. First add detergent and
then the water softener. Detergent can
be dosed as for water hardness range

1.
We recommend: if you wash using sev-

eral components (e.g. special applica­tion detergents), dispense the agents
in the following order into compartment
j :

1. Detergent

2. Water softener

3. Stain salts
This way the agents are distributed bet-

ter.

– Excessive foam.
– Low level of agitation.
– Poor washing and rinsing results.

11

Fabric conditioners / starch formulations

Fabric conditioners make garments
soft and fluffy to handle and help pre­vent static cling when tumble drying.
Dispense according to the manufac­turer’s recommendations.

Open the lid of compartment p .
Add fabric conditioner, but do not ex-

ceed the max. level.

Texturiser and liquid starch formula­tions

These synthetic starch formulations
give body to items e.g. shirts, table­cloths and bed linen. Add starch formu­lations to the fabric conditioner com­partment following the same procedure
as for fabric conditioner.

Powder starch

Prepare and dispense the starch sol­ution in accordance with the manu­facturer’s instructions.

Add to compartment i .
Turn the programme selector switch

to the “Starch” position.

If preferred select “rinse hold” to pre­vent creasing. The laundry remains sus­pended in the last rinse water.

To continue the programme:

Select “Drain” or “Spin”.

Close the compartment lid and push
in the dispenser drawer.

The conditioner is automatically dis­pensed in the last rinse. At the end of
the programme a small amount of
water remains in the fabric conditioner
compartment.

Cleaning and Care

Cleaning the drain pump and fluff fil­ter

Check the fluff filter initially after 3 - 4
washes to ascertain how often it is
likely to require cleaning.

Take the flap opener from behind the
detergent dispenser drawer.

Place a 2 litre capacity dish under­neath the drain fixture.

Turn the fluff filter lid round 2-3 times.
Do not take it right out.
Approx. 2 litres of water will drain out
of the hose.

If the drain outlet is clogged, more
water will be retained in the machine,
(max. 25l). In this case, screw the fluff
filter back into position and empty the
dish before repeating the procedure as
often as necessary.

Open the fluff filter flap.

Caution: if laundry has been
washed at a high temperature,
water draining out of the machine
will still be hot!

23

Cleaning and Care

Once the flow of water ceases,
remove the fluff filter completely and
clean it.

Programmes

Remove any foreign bodies (e.g. but­tons, coins, etc.) and fluff.

Turn the impeller by hand to check
that it is free to rotate. Any foreign ob­jects causing an obstruction should
be removed.

24

Clean inside the fluff filter housing.

Remove any deposits of lime scale and
detergent or foreign bodies from the

Cleaning and Care

The washing machine has two inlet filters to
protect the inlet valve:

To clean the filter in the inlet hose:

Close the stopcock.

Carefully unscrew the knurled coup-

ling connecting the inlet hose to the

stopcock anti-clockwise, using pliers

if necessary.

Remove the rubber seal from the re-

cess.

the surface, or if it has been otherwise
damaged.

If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose able to withstand pressure up to
70 bar. Miele’s own hoses meet this re­quirement.

To clean the filter in the water inlet
valve:

Using pliers, carefully loosen the
ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve,
and unscrew.

Using pointed pliers, take hold of the

plastic filter bar and remove the filter.

Clean under running water and care-

fully remove any grit particles.

Put the filter and seal back in the

reverse order and reconnect the

hose. Turn on the stopcock and

check the connection is watertight.
Inspect the inlet hose which is sub-

jected to high pressure while the ma­chine is in operation. The hose should
be replaced if there are small cracks in

Use water pump pliers to withdraw
the plastic filter by the bar (see illus­tration). Clean and put back.

The two filters - one in the pressure
hose union and one in the inlet con­nection to the solenoid valve - must
not be removed.

The siphon tube is either incorrectly po­sitioned or clogged. Clean as de­scribed on page 22.

Excessive build-up of foam

To avoid this problem from the outset,
take note of the following points:

Follow the manufacturer’s dosage

recommendations on packaging

carefully.

Take the water hardness level into ac-

count.

For lightly soiled articles or a small
load, reduce the amount of deter­gent accordingly.
Pre-soaked items should be rinsed
thoroughly before washing.

The “Pre-wash” indicator lamp is
flashing.

Start the programme again.
If the indicator still flashes call the Ser­vice Department.

The “Main wash” indicator lamp
flashes during, or after the end of a
programme.

If this occurs again with the next pro­gramme there is a technical fault. Call
the Service Department.

Laundry is either not spun at all or
not spun satisfactorily.

The selected spin speed was too low.

The machine was not able to distrib-

ute the laundry load evenly. To pro-

tect the machine, laundry was either

only spun at a reduced speed or not

at all.

Large items which tangle or roll up in

the drum (e.g. bath mats) can cause

an imbalance during the spin cycle.

For safety reasons, the machine

does not spin if this is the case. At-

tempts to build up spin speed are re-

peated, however, until the time allo-

cated to spinning has expired.

It is therefore important to make up

mixed loads consisting of large and

small items.

The fluff filter may be clogged.

Clean the filter and the pump as de-

scribed on page 23-24.

Problem solving guide

Programme selection

The machine shakes during the spin
cycle.

The most likely cause is that the four
machine feet are not resting securely
on the floor. Level the machine as
shown on page 33.

Weak floorboards not only lead to ex­cessive noise but also to shaking dur­ing the spin cycle (see page 31 for ad­vice).

Lime deposits are visible on the sur­face of the drum.

Use a descaling agent to remove the
deposits. Consult the manufacturer’s
instructions before use to ensure that
the product is suitable for use in
washing machines.
Take the water hardness level into ac­count when dispensing detergent.

Opening the drum door in the event
of a power failure

Switch off the washing machine.
Open the drain panel and drain off

any water as described on page 23
if there is water still in the drum.

Pull the ring of the door mechanism
downwards, and the door will open.

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

The following basic programmes are
available:

Cottons

Low water level for washing and rins­ing; 4 rinses; final spin max.
1200 rpm.

Minimum iron

Low water level for washing, medium
water level for rinsing; 3 rinses; final
spin max. 900 rpm.

Delicates

High water level for washing and rins­ing; 3 rinses; final spin max. 600 rpm.

Woollens

Medium water level for washing,
higher water level for rinsing; 3
rinses; final spin max. 900 rpm.
Reduced drum movement.

By selecting one or more of the push­button functions basic programmes
can be tailored to the type of laundry
being washed.

“With pre-wash”

for heavily soiled and stained
laundry items.

“Water plus”

This is recommended if the water
level with the “Gentle action” option
is not sufficient for particularly deli­cate fabrics,

if more water is required for dispens­ing the detergent,

for washing and rinsing cottons and
minimum iron items,

for washing delicate items.

“Gentle action”

For gentle washing of slightly soiled
laundry items, e.g. delicate fabrics
which tend to pill (i.e. form
knobbles). Drum movement is re­duced by half.

“Short”

For lightly soiled laundry items. The
length of the main wash is short­ened. An additional reduction in tem­perature is not recommended as this
may lead to poorer washing results.

Selecting the spin speed

Set the selector switch to the
highest appropriate setting to save
energy if laundry is to be dried in the
tumble drier. The spin speed in the
“Minimum iron” and “Woollens” pro­grammes is automatically limited to
900 rpm, and in the “Delicates” pro­gramme to 600 rpm.

“Rinse hold setting”

Laundry remains suspended in
water at the end of the programme.
If the washing is to be spun, turn the
spin speed selector from “Rinse
hold” to the appropriate spin speed,
or turn the programme selector
switch to “Drain”.

Problem solving guide

Grey greasy particles cling to
washed laundry.

The wash load was heavily soiled with
greasy substances such as ointments
or lotions, and the amount of detergent
was insufficient to break down the par­ticles of grease.

In future, either add up to 50% more
detergent to the main wash when
washing loads of this nature or use
liquid detergent in programmes up
to 60°C.

Before washing the next load, run a
Cottons 60°C programme with liquid
detergent without a load to clean the
machine.

Brown stains appear on the laundry
after washing.

An excessively high manganese or iron
content in the water supply can cause
stains of this nature to appear on the
laundry, in particular when low-phos­phate detergent is used.

Laundry washed with liquid deter­gent is not cleaned.

Liquid detergent does not contain any
bleaching agents capable of removing
stains, e.g. fruit, coffee and tea stains.

To remove such stains, use a

general-purpose washing powder

which contains bleach or enzymes,

or pre-treat laundry.

pour stain remover according to

manufacturer’s instructions into com-

partment j of the detergent dispen-

ser and dispense the liquid deter-

gent directly using a proprietary

dispensing aid.
Never pour stain remover and liquid

detergent into the same compartment.

Have the quality of the water supply
checked and take remedial action if
necessary.

After washing, knobbles (pilling) ap­pear on the fabric

In normal everyday wear of certain fab­rics pilling may occur. The Gentle ac­tion function should be selected when
washing these fabrics, or another pro­gramme with higher water levels and re­duced agitation to lessen the risk of fur­ther pilling.

After sales service

Adding detergent

In the event of any faults which cannot
be remedied, or if the appliance is
under guarantee, please contact:

Your Miele Dealer or
The nearest Miele Service Depart-

ment (see back cover for the ad­dress).

When contacting the Service Depart­ment, please quote the Model and Ser­ial nos. of your appliance, both of
which are shown on the dataplate
visible above the sight glass on the in­side of the door.

Example:

All modern detergents produced for
automatic washing machines are suit­able, including liquid, compact (con­centrated) and special application
detergents. Use dispensing aids e.g.
balls if these are supplied with the
detergent. Woollens and knitware con­taining wool mixtures should be
washed using a detergent specifically
designed for washing woollens.

Add the right amount of detergent as
recommended on the packaging The
amount dispensed will depend on the
following:

– the quantity of laundry
– the water hardness level
– the level of soiling

It is important to dispense the cor­rect amount, because...

...too little detergent results in the follow­ing:

– The laundry will not get properly

clean and will in time become grey

and hard to the touch.
– Greasy particles cling to the laundry.
– Lime deposits on the heater ele-

ments.

...too much detergent results in the fol­lowing:

– Excessive foam.
– Low level of agitation.
– Poor washing and rinsing results.

Water is taken in through compartment
j in the main wash. If the capacity of
compartment j is insufficient for the
amount of detergent needed where
water hardness is above 380 mg/l (in
hardness area 4), the Customer Ser­vice Engineer can adjust the machine
so that water can also be taken in
through compartment i to take deter­gent into the main wash.

Water Softeners

A water softener can be used to cut
down on the use of detergents in water
hardness ranges 2 - 4. Dispense ac­cording to the amount specified on the
packaging. First add detergent and
then the water softener. Detergent can
be dosed as for water hardness range

1.
We recommend: if you wash using sev-

eral components (e.g. special applica­tion detergents), dispense the agents
in the following order into compartment
j :

1. Detergent

2. Water softener

3. Stain salts
This way the agents are distributed bet-

ter.

Installation

Installation surface

Experience has shown that a concrete
floor is the most suitable for a washing
machine. Concrete floors are far less
prone to vibration during the spin cycle
than wooden floorboards.

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 installation must be on a wooden
joist floor: we recommend the use of
a plywood base (at least
59x52x3 cm). Ideally the base
should be large enough to span sev­eral joists and should be bolted to
the joists and not just the floor­boards. Check for presence of pipes
and cables first.

As a general rule, we recommend
the installation of the machine (or
washer/dryer stack) in the corner of
a room where the stablity of the floor
is at its greatest.

Ensure that the machine feet and the
floor are dry to prevent the machine
from slipping during the spin cycle.

Removing the transit fitting.

Using combination pliers, pull out
the retaining clips on the right and
left of the support plate.

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

Installation

Lift the machine from its packaging
base and move it to its site. Please
note:

Do not lift the machine by the drum
door.

Using a pipe wrench turn the left­hand transit bar 90° anti-clockwise
and the right-hand transit bar clock­wise.

31

Installation

Withdraw the two bars together with
the support plate.

32

Plug the two holes with the plastic
caps supplied.

The machine should not be moved with­out the transit fitting in place.

The transit fitting should be stored
in a safe place for future use. It
must be re-fitted if the machine is to
be moved again. Re-fitting is car­ried out by reversing the procedure.

Washer-Dryer stack

A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked
with this washing machine. A stacking
kit* can be purchased from the Miele
Spare Parts Department.

All parts marked * are available from
the Miele Spare Parts or Sales Depart­ment.

Empty all pockets.

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,
paper clips etc.) can cause dam­age to textiles and components in
the machine.

Sort the laundry

Most garments have a textile care label
in the collar or side seam. Sort the
laundry by care label symbols.
Only wash items in this machine which
are declared by the manufacturer as
being machine washable on the textile
care label.
Dark textiles often contain“excess
dye,” and should be washed separ­ately several times before being in­cluded in a mixed load.
Delicate textiles should be washed sep­arately in a delicates programme.
Only wash textiles made from wool or
wool mixtures if they are declared as
being suitable for machine washing on
the textile care label.

Preparing the wash load

Pre-treating the washing

Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and
cuffs, and water soluble stains, can be
pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter­gent or detergent mixed into a solution
or paste.
With particularly stubborn stains ask
your Dry Cleaner for advice.
Do not use detergents containing sol­vents in this machine.

Loading the drum

Unfold laundry and load loosely in the
drum. To achieve best results it is advis­able to make up mixed loads consist­ing of both large and small items. This
improves the washing effect and helps
distribute the load evenly to keep the
machine stable and reduce the noise
level during spinning.
It is advisable to weigh the load first to
make best use of the machine’s capac­ity.

Maximum load weights are noted
below:

COTTONS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5.0 kg

MINIMUM IRON . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.5 kg

DELICATES/SYNTHETICS. . . . . 1.0 kg

WOOL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.0 kg

QUICK WASH . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.5 kg

With curtains: Remove lead weights
and strips or place in a laundry bag.

WARNING

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.

This appliance is designed and in­tended only for normal household use
in the U.K. It should never be operated
by children. Supervise its use by the el­derly or infirm.

Read the operating instructions through
before using this machine for the first
time, as this is for your safety and the
protection of the machine. They give
notes on the safety, the use and the
maintenance of the machine.

Further warning and safety instructions
are given in the text as appropriate.

...before using for the first time

Do not install your washing ma-

chine in rooms where sub-zero
temperatures may occur. Frozen hoses
may burst under pressure.
The reliability of the electronic control
system 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 page 31).
During spinning, a transit fitting which
is still in position may result in damage
to both the machine and adjacent furni­ture or appliances.

If the drain hose is attached to a

wash basin or sink, make sure it is
secure, (see illustration in the sec­tion“Guide to the machine”),
so that the force of the water flowing
out of the hose does not dislodge it, as
this will otherwise result in flooding.
If hooking the hose into a wash basin,
check that the water can drain off

quickly enough to prevent the sink from
overflowing.

Keep these operating instructions
in a safe place.

...when using your machine

Only wash items which are de-

clared by the manufacturer to be
machine-washable on the care label
(textile care G.B. laundry care, AUS),
(see Care labels on page 10).

Descaling agents contain acid.

Only use proprietary non-corrosive
descaling agents and strictly observe
the manufacturer’s instructions. After
descaling, always run several full rinse
cycles to remove any acid residue and
to protect component parts from corro­sion.

Never use detergents containing

solvents in this machine, as this
may result in damage to component
parts and create toxic fumes. Such
detergents also pose a fire and explo­sion hazard.

Textiles which have been pre-

treated in detergents containing
solvents must be thoroughly rinsed in
clean water before being washed in
this machine.

Do not use dye removers as these

contain sulphur compounds which
may damage washing machines.

Electrical connection

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
If this machine or appliance is fitted

with a non-rewireable plug, the follow­ing information applies:

If the socket outlets are not suitable for
the plug supplied with this product, it
must be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted.

The plug cut from the flexible cord
should be disposed of and on no ac­count be inserted into a 13 A socket
elsewhere in the house (electric shock
hazard).

The fuse cover must be refitted when
changing the fuse, and if the fuse
cover is lost, the plug must not be used
until a suitable replacement is ob­tained. The colour of the correct re­placement cover is that of the coloured
insert in the base of the plug, or the col­our that is embossed in words in the
base of the plug (as applicable to the
design of plug fitted).

The correct fuse rating of the replace­ment fuses that are ASTA approved to
BS 1362 should be fitted. Replacement
fuse covers may be purchased from
your local electrical suppliers, elec­tricity showroom, or Miele Service
Agent.

(The German standard version is sup­plied with a 2 m long cable and
moulded plug for connection to a
220/230 V single phase supply. It must
only be connected via a fused

Plumbing

Caring for the environment

Connection to water supply

The machine should be connected to a
mains water supply in accordance with
standard regulations. The German auth­orities do not require it to have a non-re­turn valve as the washing machine has
been designed to comply with DVGW
regulations (German Association of
Gas and Water Engineers, see data
plate).

Connection to a mains water supply
should be carried out by a qualified
plumber and should incorporate a
mains stopcock with 3/4" thread

The 1.5 m long 3/8" pressure hose
should be connected to the stopcock
via the 3/4" threaded union.

If connection is to be made to a stop­cock with a short 3/4" thread, the extra
washers enclosed should also be in­serted in the inlet hose union to com­pensate.

The connection points are subject to
mains water pressure. Turn on the stop­cock slowly and check for leaks. Cor­rect the positioning of the washers and
screw unions if appropriate.

If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose able to withstand pressure of up
to 70 bar. This also applies to all fittings
used. Miele original parts fulfil this con­dition.

Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are
available as optional extras.

The pressure hose and solenoid inlet
valve are designed for a water flow­pressures of between 1 and 10 bar
(981 kilonewtons/m
pressures it is essential to fit a reducer
valve.

There is a minimum flow pressure of 1
bar pressure if 5 litres of water flow into
a suitable container in 15 seconds.

The two dirt filters, one at the inlet
point, one in the pressure hose
union, must not be removed.

). At higher water

Caring for the environment

Caring for the environment means sav­ing water, energy and detergent when
washing. This machine is equipped
with the Hydromatic System and the
Ball Valve for economical use of re­sources. These systems offer a variety
of technical innovations e.g. the drum
ribs, which are designed to enable
economical washing without compromi­sing on results.

The automatic load control facility en­ables loads of between 1 and 5 kg to
be washed using only as much water
and electricity as is required for an ef­fective wash.

Spinning at the high speed of
1200 rpm reduces drying times and en­ergy consumption if laundry is dried in
a tumble dryer after washing.

Economy tips

To help you wash most economically,
remember the following tips:

Always wash with the maximum
laundry load specified for each pro­gramme. This uses the energy to the
best advantage.

Only use the correct amount of deter­gent required for the water hardness
level in your area, as recommended
by the manufacturer.

If laundry is not heavily stained, se­lect a lower temperature setting than
indicated on the laundry care label
(but when using a lower temperature
do not select the “short”-option).

Lightly soiled laundry can be
washed using a “short”-programme
(additional temperature reduction
not recommended).

This hose is not suitable for use for con­nection to a hot water supply. Please
make sure that the washer sits correctly
in the union.

Connection to drainage

The machine drains via a drain pump
with a delivery head of one metre. The
hose must not be kinked as this re­stricts drainage. The hooked piece at
the end of the hose can be turned in
either direction.

Hose dimensions:

Length . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . - 1.5 m

External diameter. . . . . . . . . . . - 30 mm

External diameter

of hooked end . . . . . . . . . . . . . - 32 mm

The drain hose may be connected as
follows:

Direct into a sink: Hook the hose
over the edge and secure.
Make sure that the water can flow
away freely to avoid flooding and to
prevent water from being sucked
back into the machine.

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

Directed into a standpipe.
Allowing the water to drain off into a

floor drain.

If required, the hose can be extended
