Contents

Read the operating instructions

before using this machine for the

first time. They contain important

information about the safety, use and

maintenance of the machine. Doing

so will prevent injury and damage to

the dryer.

Save these instructions and pass

them on to any future user.

WARNING - To reduce the risk

of fire, electric shock or injury:

Technical Safety

Check the packaging, the washer

and accessories for any signs of

damage. Do not use a damaged

appliance.

Before connecting the machine,

ensure that the connection data on

the data plate (circuit protection,

voltage and frequency) match the

mains electrical supply. If in doubt

contact an electrician.

The appliance must be grounded.

It is imperative that this basic

safety requirement be met.

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electrical supply with an

extension cord. Extension cords do not

guarantee the required safety of the

appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

The machine is built in accordance

with current safety requirements.

Incorrectly repaired machines may

pose a considerable risk to the user

which is not covered by the

manufacturer. Repairs should only be

performed by a Miele approved

technician.

Ensure power is not supplied to the

appliance while maintenance or

repair work is being performed. The

machine is only completely isolated

from the electrical supply when it is

turned off at the main switch and the

plug is pulled or by tripping the circuit

breaker.

Connect the washer, to the water

mains. Do not use old hoses.

Inspect the intake hoses regularly for

damage. They should be replaced as

needed to prevent water damage.

Faulty components must only be

replaced with genuine Miele spare

parts to maintain safety standards.

If the power cord is damaged it

must only be replaced by a Miele

Service technician with a genuine Miele

power cord.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use

Only use the washing machine to

wash items which are specified by

the manufacturer to be machine

washable on the fabric care label. Any

other applications may cause

undesirable results. The manufacturer

cannot be held responsible for damage

caused by improper use of the

appliance.

This appliance is not designed for

maritime use or for use in mobile

installations such as recreational

vehicles or aircraft. However, under

certain conditions it may be possible for

installation in these applications. Please

contact the Miele Technical Service

Department with specific requirements.

Do not install this 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.

Do not wash articles that have

been previously cleaned, washed

soaked or spotted with gasoline,

organic substances dry-cleaning

solvents, or any other flammable

substances. These articles give off

vapors that could ignite or explode. Do

not add these items to the washload.

Before using the machine for the

first time, check that the shipping

struts at the rear of the machine have

been removed (see "Installation"). If the

shipping struts are still in place during

spinning, damage may result to both

the machine and adjacent furniture or

appliances.

Turn off the water supply if the

machine is to be left for any length

of time (e.g. vacation).

Overflow hazard!

Check that the drain can

accommodate the water flow before

operating the washer.

Make certain the drain hose is secured

in the drain, otherwise the force of the

expelled water could cause the drain

hose to come out of the drain.

Be sure that foreign objects (e.g.

nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do

not find their way into the machine.

These items may damage the

machine, which may also cause

damage to the laundry.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

If the correct amount of detergent

is dispensed, the machine should

not need to be descaled. If the washer

needs to be descaled, use a descaling

agent with corrosion protection. These

special descaling agents can be

purchased from the Miele Service

department. Use as directed.

Never use solvent based cleaning

agents in this machine, this may

result in damage and create toxic

fumes. They will present a fire and

explosion hazard.

Items 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 washing machine. Use as

directed by the manufacturer.

Dye removers may contain sulphur

compounds which cause damage

such as corrosion. Do not use dye

removers in this machine.

The drum door glass will be hot

when washing at very high

temperatures. Do not touch the glass.

Danger of burns!

The stainless steel casing must not

come in contact with liquid

cleaning or disinfection agents

containing chlorine. They may cause

corrosion. Do not store open

containers of this agent next to the

machine.

Children

Close supervision is necessary

when the appliance is used near

children. Do not allow children to play

on or in the appliance.

Using accessories

Accessories must only be installed

once approved by Miele. Installing

unapproved parts may void the

warranty and product liability.

can cause damage to clothes and

the machine.

^Pre-treat stains.

Tough stains (blood, egg, coffee, tea

etc.) or badly soiled areas (collars and

cuffs) should be penetrated with a stain

remover or a paste made from powder

detergent and warm water. Dab stains

with a damp light colored cloth. Do not

rub!

,Do not use chemical solvents in

the machine.

^Sort the laundry.

General tips

–Dark fabrics often bleed the first few

times they are washed. They should

be washed separately several times

before being included in a mixed

load.

–Remove any lead weights or strips

from curtains before washing.

–Loose underwires should be

removed or sewn in place before

washing.

–Woolens and knitted garments

should be turned inside out.

– Close zippers and hooks and eyes

before washing.

– Comforter covers and pillowcases

should be fastened in order to

prevent small items from getting

trapped inside of them.

Do not machine wash items if it is not

recommended on the fabric care label.

Using the washer

2. Load the laundry

^Open the drum door using the "Door"

button.

The drum light switches on.

^Load the laundry loosely into the

drum.

For best results, wash mixed loads of

small and large items. This will improve

washing effectiveness and help

distribute the load evenly.

Note: Overloading the washer will

affect wash results and cause wrinkling.

^Close the drum door.

To prevent damage to the door seal

and clothing, make sure that there is

nothing caught between the drum

door and the seal.
