Caring for the 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 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

Read the operating instructions before using this machine for the first time. They contain important information about the safety, installation, use and maintenance of the machine. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine. Keep these operating 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

This washer-dryer must only be used:

– to wash textiles which are declared

by the manufacturer on the care label to be machine washable, as well as hand washable woollens.

– to dry textiles which have been

washed in a water solution, marked on the manufacturer's wash care label as being suitable for tumble drying.

Any other applications may be dange rous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper or incorrect use of the appliance.

Do not let small children play with

the machine and its controls or operate it. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.

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

exchanged for 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 is not designed for

maritime use or for use in mobile installations such as caravans, aircraft etc. However it may be suitable for such usage subject to a risk assessment of the installation being carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Take care, the metal cap is hot after drying. Open the door wide

after the drying cycle. Do not touch the metal cap located on the inside of the door glass. It will still be hot and could cause a burn.

Do not install your machine in

rooms where temperatures below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst under pressure.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.

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

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 during a hot wash programme.

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.

Never use solvent based cleaning

agents 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 solvent based cleaning agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed in the machine.

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.

There is a danger of fire during drying with fabrics which:

contain rubber, foam rubber or

–

rubber like materials have been treated with inflammable

–

cleaning agents have been splashed with hair

–

lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances which contain padding or fillings

–

(e.g. pillows, jackets). If these were damaged, the filling could get out with the risk of igniting in the dryer.

Make sure that any dispensing

balls etc. are removed from laundry

before the drying programme. These dispensers can melt during the drying programme and cause damage to the machine and the laundry. Do not use liquid dispenser balls or similar if you are planning to wash and then dry in one continuous sequence.

Using accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele.

If other parts are used, guarantee, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.

Disposal of your old machine

Disconnect and remove the mains plug from the socket. Render the plug useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.

Always make sure the drum is

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

Finish

Before washing

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.

Stains etc. should be removed as soon as possible whilst still fresh. Spillages should be carefully dabbed off using a soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub!

How to wash correctly

Do not use solvent-based

cleaning agents in this machine.

Sort the laundry by colour and by

care label symbol. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam. See the "Programme overview chart" for information on which programmes to use for different fabric types.

Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times before being included in a mixed load.

– Curtains: Remove lead weights and

strips or place in a laundry bag.

– Bras: Ensure any underwiring is

securely sewn in. If not, remove it.

– 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 non-machine washable on the care label (h symbol).

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.

Page 27

Adding detergent

Detergent

All modern detergents produced for automatic washing machines are suitable, including liquid, compact (concentrated), tablets and special application detergents.

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

Instructions for use and recommended amounts for a full load are given on the detergent packaging.

The right amount to dispense will depend on the following:

– 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. –

Use a quantity of detergent as for soft water.

Washing with several components

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 This way the agents are distributed

more evenly.

Page 28

Fabric conditioners / starch formulations

Fabric conditioners, texturisers and starch

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

Texturisers are synthetic starch formulations, which stiffen items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen.

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.

Automatic dispensing of fabric conditioners, texturisers or liquid starch to laundry at the end of a programme

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

If starching frequently, clean the dispenser compartment and especially the siphon tube and conditioner channel. See "Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer".

Starched laundry tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.

Fabrics which crease easily be given a short period in the dryer.

Minimum iron shirts in 100% cotton crease during tumble drying depending on the quality of the weave. Use a short programme with a low setting. In extreme cases do not tumble dry these garments, but dry them on a hanger.

Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease more, the greater the load. This is particulary the case with delicate fabrics. Reduce the load.

Problem Possible cause Remedy

There is an excessive build-up of foam.

White residues which look like powder detergent are seen on dark textiles after washing.

Grey, greasy particles cling to washed laundry.

Too much detergent was used.

The detergent contained compounds (zeolites) to aid water softening where are not soluble in water. They have ended up on the textiles.

Insufficient amounts of detergent have been used to break down the particles of grease in heavily soiled laundry.

Problem solving guide

Follow the manufacturer's

–

instructions on dosage given on the packaging.

Take the water hardness

–

level into account. Use less detergent for

–

lightly soiled or small loads. Try and brush out the

–

residues after drying using a soft brush.

Wash dark textiles using a

–

detergent which contains no zeolites. Liquid detergents usually contain no zeolites.

– Use more detergent. – Before washing the next

load run a COTTONS 95°C programme with powder detergent but without a load.

Page 52

Problem solving guide

Problem Possible cause Remedy

Liquid detergent does not give the required result.

Limescale deposits appear on the drum surface.

The pump makes strange noises.

Liquid detergents usually contain no bleaching agents. They do not remove fruit, coffee and tea stains.

Not enough detergent was used.

This is not a fault! These noises occur at the end of a pump sequence as a normal part of the operation.

Use a general purpose

–

detergent containing a bleaching agent.

Pour stain removers into

–

compartment j and liquid detergent into a dispensing ball (Remember to remove

the dispensing ball before drying!).

Never put stain

–

removers and liquid detergent together in the dispenser drawer.

– Use a descaling agent,

suitable for use in washing machines, to remove the limescale deposits.

– Use the correct amount

of detergent for the water hardness level.

Problem solving guide

Opening the drum door in the event of a blocked drain outlet and/or power failure

Switch the machine off.

There is a yellow filter flap opener behind the detergent drawer fascia panel.

^ Remove the opener.

Blocked drain outlet

If the drain outlet is clogged, a large amount of water will be retained in the machine (up to 25 litres).

Caution: If laundry has been

washed at a high temperature, water draining out of the machine will still be hot. Danger of scalding!

Use it to open the access flap.

^ Place a suitable container under the

access flap.

Turn the fluff filter lid round 2-3 times. Do not take it right out.

With large volumes of water the container will need to be emptied several times. Secure the fluff filter back into position and empty the container before repeating the procedure. To stop the flow of water: Tighten the fluff filter lid again.

Page 54

Problem solving guide

Once the flow of water ceases:

^ Remove the fluff filter completely. ^ Clean the fluff filter thoroughly.

Opening the drum door

Always make sure that the drum

is stationary before reaching into the machine to remove laundry. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.

^ Pull the emergency release

downwards (see illustration). The drum door will open.

Check that the impeller can turn easily. Remove any foreign objects (e.g. buttons, coins, etc.) and fluff. Clean the fluff filter housing.

Replace the fluff filter.

Make sure it is securely tightened. Otherwise there is a risk of water leakage during use.

Installation and connection

Installation surface

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

Please note the following:

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 the use of 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 pipes and

cables beforehand! The most stable part of the floor is

usually in the corner.

Installation

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

Do not lift the machine by the drum

door.

Ensure that the machine feet and

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

If the machine is installed on a raised plinth, it has to be secured against slippage during spin using retaining clips (available from the Miele Spare Parts Dept). Otherwise there is the danger of the machine moving about.

Removing the transit fitting

A Turn the left-hand transit bar 90°.

C Withdraw the two bars together with

the support plate.

B Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°.

D Plug the holes with the plastic caps

supplied.

The machine must not be moved without the transit fitting in place. Store the transit fitting in a safe place for future use. It must be re-fitted if the machine is to be moved again (e.g. when moving house).

Re-fitting is carried out by reversing the procedure.

Page 59

Levelling the machine

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

Installation and connection

Loosen counternut 2 with a

screwdriver by turning it anti-clockwise, then unscrew foot 1 together with the counternut.

^ Put the machine back on all four feet.

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

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

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

Gently tip the machine and prop it up using a solid wooden wedge for example, to ensure stability.

Make sure the machine does not slip as this could cause injury.

^ Use a spirit level to check the

machine is standing level.

^ Hold the foot 1 firm using a pipe

wrench and using a screwdriver turn the counternut 2 to the right 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.

Installation and connection

The Miele Waterproof system

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

The system consists of three main components:

1) the inlet hose

2) the electronic unit and the washing machine housing

3) the drain hose

1) Inlet hose

– The inlet hose is fitted with an

additional electrical safety valve which works like an automatic stopcock and is housed in the inlet hose connection box.

– It is pressure proof to between 70

and 100 bar.

– The inlet hose has 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 safety valves, preventing any more water from 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 in and pumps the excess 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 this protective sleeve. A float switches off the safety valve, preventing any more water from flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.

Page 62

Installation and connection

Connection to the water supply

Installation

For the Miele Waterproof system to function correctly, it may only be fitted in the positions shown in the illustrations above.

The machine should be connected to a mains water supply in accordance with local and national safety regulations. The German authorities do not require it to have a non-return valve as the washer-dryer has been designed to comply with DIN regulations.

The machine is designed to operate with a flow pressure of between 1 and 10 bar. If it is higher than 10 bar 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 point is subject to mains water pressure. Turn on the stopcock slowly and check for leaks. Correct the position of the washer and union if appropriate.

The appliance is not suitable for connection to a hot water supply and connection to a household water softener is not recommended.

Page 63

Installation and connection

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.

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

Do not get wet.

Page 64

Installation and connection

Maintenance and care

If you intend to unscrew the Miele Waterproof system hose from the stopcock it is essential to disconnect the machine from the electricity supply first.

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

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

Extension hose

A 4.5 m Miele Waterproof system extension hose is available from your Miele Dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department as an optional extra.

Page 65

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 is 1.5 m long. It 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.

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink.

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.

If required the drain hose can be extended to a length of 5 metres. The accessories required can be purchased from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.

For draining the water away with a delivery head over 1 metre (and up to a max. of 1.8 metres) a 2nd "Duo-drain pump" is available together with the corresponding kit from your Miele Dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
