Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally 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. Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children.
Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old appliance
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. You are also responsible for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Cleaning and care
23
Cleaning the heater plate
Regular cleaning and maintenance of the heater plate is essential for
the protection of the drive motor and the roller cover. Please follow
the notes in the Miele Ironing Handbook on ironing and cleaning and
care. The heater plate must be waxed every time it is cleaned. Failure
to do so can result in a considerable reduction of the lifespan of the
flatwork ironer.
The heater plate is made of aluminium.
For this reason, do not use coarse scouring agents or abrasive
cleaning cloths.
Only use the Miele cleaning set for cleaning. It includes a cleaning
cloth, waxing cloth, and ironer wax. The set is available to order as
an optional accessory.
Detergent and starch deposits can stick to the heater plate. It should
therefore be cleaned before starting work, depending on the degree
of soiling.
The ironers PM 1210, PM 1214 (from serial No. 120610687 onwards)
and PM 1217 (from serial No. 120610797 onwards) all come with a
cleaning and waxing indicator (red indicator symbol ).
When the red indicator symbol lights up, it is necessary to run
the cleaning programme to clean and wax the heater plate.
Starting the
cleaning
programme
Press and hold the button for more than 3 seconds.
The cleaning programme is started. 80 °C is shown in the display.
If the current temperature of the ironer is higher than 80 °C, the
symbol appears and the ironer is cooled down. You can start cleaning
as soon as the symbol has gone out and a temperature of 80 °C is
displayed.
Cleaning and care
24
Cleaning with the
cleaning cloth
Use the Miele cleaning cloth for cleaning the heater plate.
As the cleaning cloth is narrower than the heater plate, the entire
plate cannot be cleaned in one go. It is necessary to feed the
cleaning cloth through the ironer several times, gradually moving it
down the width of the heater plate.
Useful tip: Stubborn soiling such as starch deposits can be removed
by passing a cloth soaked in lukewarm water through the ironer.

waxing function, the timer for the prompt to clean and wax the heater
plate (red indicator symbol ) is reset.
Waxing using the
waxing cloth
Sprinkle some wax into the pocket of the waxing cloth.
Use the wax sparingly to prevent the roller cover becoming too
smooth.
Close the pocket.
Press the button to start the waxing process.
Lay the pocket with the rubberised side facing downwards (i.e.
towards the roller) and feed it into the flatwork ironer when hot
(heater plate temperature approx. 180 °C).
Do not feed the waxing cloth with the rubberised side facing
upwards (i.e. towards the heater plate).

The waxing mode is deactivated.
Useful tip: To maintain the smooth surface of the heater plate, it
should be waxed after every working day.
Always carry out cleaning in the cleaning programme and waxing in
waxing mode, as otherwise the ironer's maintenance interval will not
be reset. The maintenance interval is only reset once cleaning and
waxing have been carried out completely in the corresponding
mode.
Roller padding
Before removing the roller cover for cleaning or replacing, switch off
the flatwork ironer and allow the heater plate to cool down.
