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 of 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. Therefore,

please do not 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 the

appliance or the machine to prevent

misuse.

Energy saving tips

Energy and water consumption

–Water consumption and energy

usage are determined by the size of

the load.

To make the most out of your

machine load the maximum dry load

for the programme you are using.

– If smaller loads are washed using the

Cottons programmes, the automatic

load recognition system will reduce

the amount of water, time and energy

used.

– Use the Quick wash programme for

small loads.

Detergent

–Do not exceed the amounts of

detergent recommended by the

manufacturer on the packaging.

–Reduce the amount of detergent for

smaller loads.

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.

Contents

This machine conforms to current safety requirements.

Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and

damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine,

please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first

time. They contain important information on its safety, use and

maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that they are

made available to new users. They must be made aware of these

warning and safety instructions. Pass them on to any future

users/owners of the machine.

Correct application

~Only use the machine to wash items which are specified by the

manufacturer to be machine-washable on the wash-care label, and

textiles composed of hand-washable wool or wool blend fabrics as

well as satin, lace, silk and other hand-washable garments. Any

other applications may be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be

held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use of

the machine.

~This machine must be used as described in these operating

instructions and must be checked on a regular basis to make sure it

is functioning correctly. Maintenance must be carried out when

necessary.

~The washing machine is not intended for outdoor use.

Warning and Safety instructions

~This machine is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or

lack of experience or knowledge, unless they have been shown how

to use it correctly by a person responsible for their safety.

~Keep children away from the washing machine at all times. It is

not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, do not allow children to play on

or near it or to play with its controls. Supervise children whilst you

are using it.

~Older children may only use the washing machine if its operation

has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it

safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.

~It is the operator's responsibility to ensure that the standard of

disinfection in thermal as well as chemo thermal procedures is

maintained (in accordance with local authority regulations) by

carrying out suitable validation tests. Disinfection programmes must

not be interrupted, as this can have a limiting effect on the

disinfection result.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

~Before setting up the machine, check it for any externally visible

damage.

Do not install or use a damaged machine.

~The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing

system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It

is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and

regularly tested, and where there is any doubt, the on-site wiring

system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The

manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an

inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

~Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the

user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be

undertaken by a Miele approved service technician. If this is not

done, any resultant damage will not be covered by the warranty.

Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after

maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

~Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to

do so by Miele.

~In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the machine is

only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or

–it is switched off at the isolator switch, or

–it is switched off at the mains, or

–the mains fuse has been withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse is

removed (in countries where this is applicable).

Warning and Safety instructions

~This machine must only be connected to the on-site water supply

using a new hose kit. Old hoses must not be re-used. Check the

hose regularly for signs of wear. Change in good time to avoid the

risk of leaks and subsequent damage.

~Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele

original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety

standards of the machine be guaranteed.

~Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead or a multi-socket unit. These do not guarantee the

required safety of the machine (e.g. danger or overheating).

~If this machine is being used in a commercial environment,

please ensure that all relevant health and safety regulations are

obeyed.

~This washing machine must not be installed and operated in

mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).

~Please refer to the information in "Installation and connection" and

"Technical data".

~The accesibility of the plug must be always ensured in order to

separate the washing machine from the mains.

~If the washing machine is hard-wired, the isolation switch must

always be accessible to disconnect the washing machine from the

mains.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

~The maximum load capacity is 6.5 kg (dry laundry). See the

"Programme chart" for the specific load capacities of individual

programmes.

~Do not install your machine in rooms where temperatures below

freezing may occur. 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 section on

"Installation"). 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 tap 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 imme-

diate 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.
