Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
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 appli-
ance
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 (by law, depending on country) 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.
6

10
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Do not install the washing machine in a room where there is a risk of frost. 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 machine have been removed (see “Installation and connection - Removing the transit bars”). During spinning, a transit bar 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.
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.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Take care when opening the drum door after using the steam function. Danger of burning due to escaping steam and the high temperature of the surface of the drum as well as the porthole glass. Stand back away from the machine and wait until the steam has dissipated.
The maximum load for this washing machine is 9 kg (dry weight). See the “Programme chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual programmes.
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 a proprietary natural citric acid based descaling agent. Miele recommends using Miele descaling agent which is available to order online at www.miele.co.uk or from Miele. Strictly observe the instructions on the packaging.
Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed in the machine.
Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing benzine, in this machine, as this may result in damage to component parts and create toxic fumes. Such agents also pose a fire and explosion hazard.
Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing benzine, to clean the surfaces of the machine. They can cause damage to plastic surfaces.
Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in a domestic washing machine. Always observe the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds which can cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use these products in this machine.
If detergent comes into contact with the eyes, rinse them thoroughly with lukewarm water immediately. If swallowed, seek medical assistance immediately and retain the packaging or label for reference. Those with skin problems or sensitive skin should avoid their skin coming into contact with detergent.
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.
A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked on top of a Miele washing machine using the appropriate stacking kit (available as an optional accessory). Please make sure you order the correct one for the Miele washing machine and Miele tumble dryer.
If installing the machine on a Miele plinth, (available as an optional accessory, depending on country), please make sure you order the correct one for this washing machine.

Washing environmentally and economically
Energy and water consumption
–To get the most out of your machine, load the maximum dry load for the programme you are using.
The energy and water consumption will be the lowest in relation to the size of the load.
–When smaller amounts of laundry are washed, the automatic load control system will reduce the amount of water and energy used.
–Use the Express 20 programme for small, lightly soiled loads.
–Modern detergents make it possible to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20 °C). Using lower temperature settings will save energy.
–Washing at low temperatures and/or using liquid detergents can cause bacteria and odours to build up in the washing machine. Miele therefore recommends cleaning the washing machine once every month.
The washing machine reminds you to do so with the following message in
the display: Hygiene info: run a pro-
gramme at min. 75 °C or the "Clean ma-
chine" programme.
Detergent
–Do not exceed the amounts of detergent recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.
–Adjust the dosage to the degree of soiling of the laundry.
–Reduce the amount of detergent with smaller loads (approx. ⅓ less than the amount recommended can be used when washing a half load).
When drying with a tumble dryer
Selecting the highest possible spin speed for the wash programme will save energy when drying in a tumble dryer afterwards.
19
Washing environmentally and economically
EcoFeedback
You can view information about the energy and water consumption of your washing machine with the sensor.
The following information will appear in the display:
–An estimate of the energy and water consumption before the programme begins.
–The actual energy and water consumption and the cost during the programme or at the end of the programme.
1. Estimate
After selecting a programme, touch the sensor.
The estimated energy and water consumption levels will be displayed as a bar chart.
|
|
|
|
OK |
|
|
|
||
The more bars visible (), the higher the energy or water consumption.
The estimate will vary depending on the wash programme, temperature and any options selected.
Touch the OK sensor or wait until the display automatically returns to the standard display.
2. Actual consumption
You can view the actual amount of energy and water used by a programme both during and at the end of the programme.
Touch the sensor.
Energy |
< 0.1 kWh |
OK |
Use the sensors to change to the estimated water consumption levels.
The consumption will alter as the programme progresses.

Tip: You can view the consumption data for the last wash programme in
Settings under Consumption.
20
1. Prepare the laundry
Empty all pockets.
Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause damage to garments and to components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing and remove any foreign objects.
Sort the laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam.
Tip: Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times before being included in a mixed load. Always wash whites and coloureds separately.
Pre-treat stains
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.
Tip: Badly soiled areas can be pretreated with liquid detergent, stain removers etc. first, following the manufacturer's instructions. With particularly stubborn stains ask your dry cleaner for advice.
Solvent-based cleaners (e.g. benzine) can damage plastic parts. When pre-treating garments, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) are protected from cleaning agent.
Chemical (solvent-based) cleaning agents can cause severe damage to the washing machine.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine.
General tips
–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.
–Close any zips, attach velcro fasteners, fasten hooks and eyes etc. before washing.
–Fasten duvet covers, pillow cases etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.
Do not wash any items in this washing machine which are specified by the manufacturer as not washable on the care label ( symbol).

22
3. Load the washing machine
Open the door |
Close the door |
Reach under the door grip and pull the door open.
Check the drum for pets or foreign objects before loading it with laundry.
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 creases.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum.
Mixing both large and small items gives better wash results and also helps distribute the load evenly during spinning.
Tip: Please note the maximum load for the different wash programmes. The relevant programme load is always shown in the display when you select a programme.
Make sure that no items are caught between the door and the seal.
Shut the door with a gentle swing.

Tips on dosing
Adjust the detergent dosage to the level of soiling of the laundry and the size of the load. Reduce the amount of detergent with smaller loads (e.g. reduce the amount of detergent by ⅓ when washing a half load).
Too little detergent:
–Results in laundry not being cleaned properly and may cause it to become grey and hard to the touch over time.
–Can lead to a build-up of mould in the washing machine.
–Results in grease not being completely removed from the laundry.
–Can lead to limescale deposits on the heater elements.
Too much detergent
–Causes poor wash, rinse, and spin results.
–Causes higher water consumption as an extra rinse cycle is automatically activated.
–Is a greater burden on the environment.
Using liquid detergent with a prewash
Liquid detergent cannot be used for the main wash if the pre-wash has been selected.
Use powder detergent for the main wash.
Using detergent tablets or pods
Always put detergent tablets or pods directly in the drum with the laundry. They cannot be added via the detergent dispenser drawer.
See “Detergent” for further information.
