Warning and Safety instructions
Please read the operating instructions be
fore using this machine for the first time.
They contain important information about
the safety, use and maintenance of the
machine. This way you will avoid the risk
of accidents and damage to the machine.
Appropriate use of the machine
This washer extractor is only intended for
items of laundry which have not been im
pregnated with dangerous or inflammable
substances.
Only machine wash articles which pos
sess a care label stating they are suit
able for machine washing.
It is the operator’s responsibility to en
sure that the standard of disinfection in
thermal as well as chemo thermal proce
dures is maintained (in accordance with §
18 IFSG) by carrying out suitable validation
tests. These procedures should be checked
on a regular basis, either thermo-electrically
using loggers, or bacteriologically with bio
indicators. The operator must pay particular
attention to maintaining the correct parameters in the procedure, including temperature
and with chemo thermal programmes the
chemical concentration used. Disinfection
programmes must not be interrupted, as this
can have a limiting effect on the disinfection
result.
On no account must solvents of the kind
used for dry cleaning be used in this ma
chine. There may be the danger of fire or ex
plosion.
Never use or store petrol or petroleum
based substances or any easily inflam
mable substances near the machine. Do not
use the machine lid as a resting place.

Technical and electrical safety
The electrical safety of this appliance
can only be guaranteed when continuity
is complete between the appliance and an
effective earthing system which complies
with local and national regulations. It is most
important that this basic safety requirement
is regularly tested by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsi
ble for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system.
Do not damage, remove or bypass the
safety features and controls on the ma
chine.
Where there is any damage to the ma
chine or to the cable insulation the ma
chine must not be used until it has been re
paired.
Any removable outer panels must be in
place, and all moving or electrical parts
shielded before the machine is operated.
The machine is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply either when
switched off at the wall isolator, or the mains
fuse is withdrawn from the socket
Repairs to machines operating with elec-
tricity, gas or steam should only be undertaken by a suitably qualified service engineer to ensure safety. Unauthorised repairs
could be dangerous.
Faulty components should only be ex
changed for Miele original spare parts.
Only when these parts are fitted can the
safety standards of the machine be guaran
teed.
The very best materials are used in the
manufacture of this machine, and every
care is taken in its manufacture. However,
with time, deterioration of parts can occur,
especially with rubber components such as
hoses. This should be borne in mind if oper
ating the machine without supervision.
Check the inlet hoses regularly for signs of
deterioration and replace in good time, to
avoid leaks and subsequent damage.

Warning and Safety instructions
Use of the machine
This washer extractor is not intended for
use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capa
bilities, or lack of experience or knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning its use by a person
responsible for their safety.
Never allow children to play in, on or
near the washer extractor, or to operate it
themselves. Please supervise its use by the
elderly or infirm.
Remember that the door porthole glass
can become hot during the operation of
the machine. Do not let children touch it.
When washing with high temperatures
steam can be emitted from the venting
slot behind the machine.
Do not grip between the suspended
drum unit and the seal of the front panel
cut-out during spin.
Always make sure the drum is stationary
before reaching in to remove washing.
Reaching into a moving drum is extremely
dangerous.
Water used for washing and rinsing must
not be used as drinking water. It must be
discharged into a proper sewerage system.
The machine should only be operated
unsupervised when there is a floor drain
(gully) in the direct vicinity of the machine.
Disinfecting and cleaning agents often
have compounds containing chlorides in
them. If these agents dry on to stainless
steel surfaces, the residual chlorides will at
tack the steel and can cause rusting.
To protect your machine from rust damage,
we recommend only using chloride free dis
infecting and cleaning agents for washing
and disinfecting programmes and for clean
ing stainless steel surfaces of the machine
itself.
If you are not sure about a particular agent,
contact the manufacturer of that agent for
advice.
If you accidentally spill an agent containing
chlorides on the machine it should be rinsed
off with water and dried using a soft cloth.
-
-
Proprietary dyes, dye removers and
descaling agents may only be used in
this machine if the manufacturer expressly
states that they are suitable for use in a
washing machine. Follow manufacturer’s in
structions on how to use them.
Laundry that was soiled with biological
oils or fat should be washed using a suit
able detergent and/or wash programme. It
must also be inspected after washing. If oils
or fat are not sufficiently removed they could
cause the laundry to self ignite during the
drying process.
Always follow the instructions of the
chemical manufacturer when using
cleaning agents and special application
chemicals. Only use such chemicals for the
purpose and in the situation specified by the
manufacturer in order to avoid the danger of
adverse chemical reactions and material
damage.
If in doubt check the suitability of the product for use in this machine with the manufacturer before using it.
Where a chemical cleaning agent is rec-
ommended on technical application
grounds, this does not imply that the manufacturer of the machine takes responsibility
for the effect of the chemical on the material
of the items being cleaned or on the machine. Please be aware that changes in for
mulation, storage conditions etc., which may
not be publicised by the chemical producer,
can have a negative effect on the cleaning
result.
On no account use high pressure
cleaners or hose down the machine.
Use of 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
Chlorine and component damage
Notes on using chlorine bleach and per
chlorethylene
Frequent use of chlorine increases the
risk of component damage.
The use of agents containing chlorine, such
as sodium hypochlorite and chlorine bleach
in powder form, can damage the protective
surface of stainless steel and cause corro
sion. Factors affecting this are chlorine con
centration levels, contact time and tempera
ture. It is therefore advisable to avoid the use
of such agents. Oxygen based bleaching
agents should be used instead.
If, however, chlorine based bleaching
agents have to be used for particular types
of soiling, then anti-chlorine measures must
also be carried out. If this is not done irrepa
rable damage can occur to components in
the machine and to laundry.

Disposal of old machines or appliances
When disposing of an old washer extrac
tor first make it unusable. Disconnect
from all services, cut off the cable and the
plug from the cable.
Make the door lock inoperative, so that chil
dren cannot accidentally shut themselves in.
Make appropriate arrangements for the safe
disposal of the appliance.
All personnel working with this machine
must be fully trained in all aspects of its
use and safety.
Keep these instructions in a safe place.
-
-
-
Anti-chlorine treatment
Anti-chlorine treatment has to be carried out
immediately after chlorine bleach has been
used. Hydrogen peroxide and oxygen based
cleaning and bleaching agents must only be
used in programmes specified for their use.
Any wash performance problems should be
discussed with the manufacturer of the
cleaning / bleaching product in the first in
stance.
With thiosulfate, especially when used with
hard water, gypsum can form, which can
lead to incrustations on laundry or deposits
in the machine.
The exact quantity of additives and the treat
ment temperatures required must be set and
tested on site in accordance with the dos
age recommendations of the detergent and
additive manufacturers. The laundry must
also be tested to make sure it contains no
active chlorine residues after processing.

Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packing has
been selected from materials which are envi
ronmentally friendly for disposal and can
normally be recycled. Packaging e.g. cling
film, polystyrene and plastic wrappings must
be kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Rather than just throwing these materials
away, please ensure that they are recycled.
Disposal of your old machine
Electrical and electronic machines often
contain materials which, if handled or dis
posed of incorrectly, could be potentially
hazardous to human health and to the envi
ronment. They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your machine. Please
do not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
-
-
Caring for the environment
-
Please dispose of it at your local community
waste collection/recycling centre, and en
sure 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 com
petent person.
