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 to prevent misuse.
Caring for the environment

This washing 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 washing
machine, please read these instructions carefully before using it
for the first time. They contain important information on its
installation, safety, use and maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users
are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner.
Correct application
~This washing machine is designed for domestic use and for use
in similar environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed &
breakfasts and other typical living quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels,
motels or bed & breakfasts. It must only be used to wash garments
which have been declared suitable for washing by the manufacturer
indicated on the garment care label.
Any other use may be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or
operation.
~The washing machine is not suitable for outdoor use.
~This washing machine is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning its use by a person
responsible for their safety.
~This washing machine must not be installed and operated in
mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).
Warning and Safety instructions
7
Safety with children
~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.
~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.
Warning and Safety instructions
8
Technical safety
~Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally
visible damage.
Do not install or use a damaged washing machine.
~Before connecting the washing machine, ensure that the
connection data on the data plate (voltage and rated load) match
the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
~The electrical safety of this washing machine can only be
guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing system which complies with current 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 household 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).
~Do not connect the washing machine to the mains electricity
supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~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.
~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.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
~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.
Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after
maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
~If the connection cable is faulty, it must only be replaced by a
Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.
~In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the washing
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 mains, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
~The Miele "Water protection 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.
~In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine 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 machine warranty.
~Do not make any alterations to the washing machine unless
authorised to do so by Miele.
