Disposal of packing materials
The packing materials protect the
washer from damage during shipping.
They have been selected with an eye to
environmental compatibility and
efficient disposal, and should be
recycled.
Returning packaging to the materials
cycle helps conserve raw materials and
reduces waste. The packing materials
can be returned to your dealer.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Old electric and electronic equipment
often contains valuable materials.
However, they may also contain harmful
substances that were necessary for
safe use. Improperly disposing of these
items in your household waste can be
detrimental to health and the
environment. This is why it is important
NEVER to dispose of your old
appliance with the regular household
garbage.
Instead, please contact your local
community waste collection point to
return and recycle electric and
electronic appliances. Your dealer
should be able to provide you with
details.
If the appliance is being stored for
disposal, please make sure it has been
child-proofed.

This washer complies with all
applicable safety laws and
regulations. Inappropriate use can,
however, lead to personal injury and
property damage.
Please thoroughly read these
instructions before first using the
appliance. They contain important
information on the safe installation,
operation, and care of your
appliance. They are intended to
help prevent personal injury and
damage to the appliance.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and pass them on to
any future owner.
The W 1753 meets all CSA
requirements. This machine is not
approved for use in the United
States.
Proper use
~The washing machine is designed
for household use only and only for
washing textiles whose fabric care label
states that they can be washed. Other
uses may be dangerous. Miele will not
be held liable for damage caused by
improper use or incorrect operation.
~Individuals who are incapable of
using the appliance safely because of
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or because of a lack of
experience or knowledge, must not use
this appliance without supervision or
instruction by a responsible person.
Children around the appliance
~Supervise any children in the vicinity
of the appliance. Never allow children
to play with the appliance.
~Children must not use the washer
unsupervised unless they have
received sufficient instruction to
operate it safely. They must be able to
recognize the potential hazards of
improper operation.
~Remember that high wash
temperatures will make the porthole
glass hot.
Teach children not to touch the glass
while the washer is in operation.
Important safety instructions

Technical safety
~Check the washer for externally
visible damage before installation.
Do not install or operate a damaged
washer.
~Before plugging in the appliance,
you must make sure that the electrical
rating (fuse amperage, voltage and
connected load in watts, indicated on
the data plate) matches the household
electrical supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
~The washer can only be considered
safe if it has been connected to a
properly installed grounding system, as
per code.
It is crucial to have this essential safety
requirement tested, and to have the
household wiring checked by a
professional if there is any doubt.
Miele will not be held liable for any
damage or harm caused by a missing
or incomplete grounding system.
~For safety reasons, do not use
extension cords (danger of fire from
overheating).
~Use only genuine Miele replacement
parts to replace defective components.
Only these parts are guaranteed to
meet applicable safety requirements.
~Unauthorized repairs may create
unforeseeable risks for the user, for
which Miele assumes no liability.
Repairs should be carried out only by
authorized Miele technicians -
otherwise, associated damage will not
be covered by the warranty.
~If the power cord is damaged it
must be replaced by an authorized
Miele technician to prevent danger to
the user.
~In the event of a fault, or for care
and cleaning, the washer is only
considered disconnected from the
power supply, when
– the plug is completed removed from
the socket, or
– the circuit breaker for the house
wiring system is completely shut off,
or
– the screw-out fuse in the house
wiring system is unscrewed and
removed.
~Use only a new hose kit to attach the
washer to the household water supply.
Old hosing should not be re-used.
Important safety instructions

~The appliance is not designed for
use in non-stationary locations (for
example, on ships). However, this use
may be possible if a qualified specialist
determines that the appliance can be
used safely in the location in question.
~Make no modifications to the washer
that are not expressly authorized by
Miele.
Proper use
~Do not place the washer in a room
where there is a risk of frost occurring.
Frozen hoses can split or burst, and the
reliability of the electronics can be
reduced below the freezing point.
~Before using the washer for the first
time, remove the shipping rods on the
back of the appliance (see "Installation
and connection" under "Removing the
transport fittings"). Failure to remove the
shipping rods can damage the washer
and any surrounding furniture or
devices during spinning.
~For extended absences (e.g., a
vacation), close the taps, especially if
there is no gully near the washer.
~Danger of flooding!
Before hanging the drain hose in the
washbasin, make sure the water will
drain away quickly enough.
Secure the hose from slipping. The
force of the water exiting the hose can
cause an unsecured hose to pop out of
the basin.
~Ensure that no foreign bodies (e.g.,
nails, needles, coins, paper clips) are in
the wash. Foreign bodies can damage
the appliance components (e.g., suds
container, washer drum). Damaged
components, in turn, can damage
laundry items.
~Proper dosing of the detergent will
eliminate the need to remove lime
deposits. However, if heavy limescale
nonetheless forms on your washer, be
sure to select a special descaling agent
with corrosion protection. This special
product can be obtained from your
Miele dealer or from Miele Customer
Service. Closely follow the instructions
on the product package.
Important safety instructions

~Textiles that have been pre-treated
with solvent-based cleaners must be
rinsed thoroughly in water before you
wash them.
~NEVER use solvent-based cleaners
(e.g., benzine) in the washing machine.
The use of such products can damage
the appliance and generate noxious
fumes. Fire hazard and danger of
explosion!
~NEVER use solvent-based cleaners
(e.g., benzine) on or around the
washing machine. Splatters can
damage the plastic surfaces of the
appliance.
~Do not use dyes unless they are
recommended for use in washing
machines. Dyes are to be used in
reasonable (household) quantities only.
Closely follow the manufacturer's
instructions.
~Colour removers contain sulphur
compounds, which can lead to
corrosion. Therefore, do not use colour
removers in the washer.
~If liquid detergent comes into
contact with the eyes, immediately flush
with copious amounts of lukewarm
water. If accidentally swallowed, imme-
diately seek medical attention. Persons
with sensitive or damaged skin should
avoid contact with liquid detergents.
Accessories
~Only use accessories that are
expressly authorized by Miele.
If other parts are used, the appliance
warranty and any associated
performance and/or product liability
claims become null and void.
The manufacturer will not be held
liable for damage caused by failure
to comply with the safety instructions
and warnings.
