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 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

Before using for the first time
Your washing machine is equipped with an integrated WiFi module.
In order to use it you need:
-a WiFi network
-the Miele@mobile App
-a Miele user account. The user account can be created via the Miele@mobile App.
The Miele@mobile App will guide you as you connect your washing machine to your home WiFi network.
Once your washing machine is connected to your WiFi network you can use the App, for example, to carry the following activities:
-Operate your washing machine remotely
-Access information about the operating status of your washing machine
-Access information about a programme sequence on your washing machine
Connecting your washing machine to your WiFi network will increase energy consumption, even when the washing machine is switched off.
Before installing the washing machine in its final location, ensure the signal strength is sufficient for your WiFi network.
The WiFi connection shares a frequency range with other appliances (including microwave ovens and remote control toys). This can give rise to sporadic or even complete connection failures. Therefore, the availability of featured functions cannot be guaranteed.
The ability to use the Miele app depends on the availability of the Miele@home service in your country.
The Miele@home service is not available in every country.
For information about availability, please visit www.miele.com.
The Miele App is available to download free of charge from the Apple App Store® or from the Google Play Store™.

4. Starting the calibration pro-
gramme
For optimum water and energy consumption and excellent wash results, it is important to calibrate the washing machine.
To do this, the Cottons programme must be run without laundry and without detergent.

20
-To get the most out of your machine, load the maximum dry load size for the wash programme you are using. This will keep the energy and water consumption to a minimum in relation to the size of the load.
-Programmes that are more efficient with regard to energy and water consumption generally have a longer running time. By extending the programme running time, the wash temperature that is actually reached can be reduced while still providing the same wash results.
For example, the
ECO 40-60 programme has a longer running time than the Cottons 40 °C or 60 °C programme. The
ECO 40-60 programme is more efficient in terms of energy and water consumption but has a longer running time.
-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.
Hygiene in the washing ma-
chine
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.
When the message Hygiene info: run a
programme at min. 75 °C or the “Clean ma-
chine” programme appears in the display,
the washing machine must be cleaned.
Information about subsequent
tumble drying
The spin speed selected affects the residual moisture in the laundry and the sound emissions of the washing machine.
The higher the spin speed, the lower the residual moisture in the laundry. However, the sound emissions of the washing machine will increase.
Select the highest possible spin speed for the wash programme to save energy in the subsequent tumble dryer cycle.
-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).
21
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.
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-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains 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: Stains (e.g. blood, egg, coffee, tea) can be pre-treated using some handy tricks which can be found in the Miele guide to laundry care.
Damage due to solvent-based cleaning agents
Cleaning agents containing benzine, stain remover, etc., can damage plastic parts.
When pre-treating textiles, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) do not come into contact with cleaning agent.
Risk of explosion due to solventbased cleaning agents.
When using solvent-based cleaning agents, an explosive mixture may develop.
Never use solvent-based cleaning agents in the washing 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).

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.

SmartStart |
Setting the time period |
The SmartStart function lets you define a period of time during which your washing machine will start automatically. The appliance will start on receipt of a signal, e.g. from your energy supplier, that indicates that the electricity tariff is particularly economical.
This function is active when the
SmartGrid setting is switched on.
The time period can be defined between 15 minutes and 24 hours. During this period, the washing machine waits for the signal from the energy supplier. If no signal is sent during the defined period, the washing machine starts the wash programme.
If you have activated the SmartGrid function in Settings, SmartStart in instead of Start in will appear in the display when you touch the sensor control (see “Settings – SmartGrid”).
The procedure for setting this is the same as for setting the time for delay start.
Use the sensor controls to enter the hour and confirm your entry with the OK sensor control.
The hour will be saved and the minute number block will be highlighted.
Use the sensor controls to enter the minutes and confirm your entry with the OK sensor control.
Press the Start/Add laundry sensor control to start the wash programme with SmartStart.
