Help protect our envir onment W arning - T o reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPOR T ANT SAFETY IN - STRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
Optimal usage The key to good wash results is finding the correct combination of detergent and temperature, and then allowing the washing machine to optimize their us - age through its pr ogramming. Program lengths can vary for this reason. The fully electronic contr ols offer a com - bination of simple operation with many optional features.
Before using the first time Important: The appliance must be properly in - stalled and connected to the water and electrical supply in accordance with local and national codes. See “Installation instructions”. Make sure the shipping struts on the rear of the washer have been r e - moved.
Preparing the Laundry The headings numbered ( 1 , 2 , 3 ,...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide. Before washing 1 Prepare the wash load ^ Empty all pockets. Foreign objects accidentally left in pockets (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.
2 Press the “Door” button to open the door 3 Load the machine Unfold the laundry and place it in the drum. For best results we r ecommend washing mixed loads consisting of both large and small items. This improves washing effectiveness and helps dis - tribute the load evenly to keep the ma - chine stable and reduce noise during spinning.
End of Program After washing 1 T urn the program selector switch to “Finish/Start” 2 Press the “ON/OFF” button. 3 Press the “Door” button. Do not attempt to remove laundry from the machine if the drum is turn - ing. Y ou may seriously injure your - self.
T extile care symbols Some clothing manufacturers have started placing textile care symbols on their products. The following is an ex - planation of some of these symbols.
Adding detergent Powder detergent should be added to compartment j (main wash) and compartment i (pre wash, if selected) at the beginning of each wash cycle. Due to the design of the Miele 1/3 to 1/2 the manufacturer’s r ecommended amount of detergent is plenty for excel - lent wash results.
Adding fabric softener or starch If fabric softener is desired, it will work more ef fectively and be gentler on the clothes if it is dispensed in the final rinse cycle of the wash, rather than in the dryer with softener sheets. T o auto - matically dispense fabric softener: ^ Open the lid of compartment p .
Programs CO TT ONS For cotton fabrics without special fin - ishes. 1) W ater levels used: wash - low rinse - low 2) Rinse cycles used: Normal program - four Short program - four PERMANENT PRESS For cotton blend fabrics, polyester blends and other synthetics such as acrylic, nylon and ramie.
FINE / DELICA TES For synthetics, machine washable silks, lace or crocheted (non-woolen) items, curtains and knit gar ments. 1) W ater level used: wash - high rinse - high 2) Rinse cycles used: Normal program - three Short program - three WOOLENS For all machine washable woolens and wool blends.
Starc h For tablecloths, napkins, aprons and shirts. max load: 11 lbs (5kg) max. spin: 900 rpm Runtime: 18 min (app.) Spin For spinning wet items not washed in the machine (hand washed). Such items must be suitable for machine spinning. The spin speed can be set to a maximum of 1200 rpm.
Additional options By selecting one or more pushbutton functions, basic programs can be tai - lored to the type of laundry being washed. “Pre-wash” – Use for heavily soiled or stained laundry items. – Available in the “COTTONS”, “PER - MANENT PRESS” and “FINE / DELICA TES” programs.
Changing the program sequence T o cancel a program: ^ T ur n the Program Selector to the “Finish/Start” position. T o interrupt a program: ^ T ur n the machine off. T o r e-star t a program, turn the machine on again. T o change an incorrectly se - lected program: ^ T ur n the Program Selector to “Finish/Start”.
Cleaning and care T o clean the washing machine: ^ Clean the casing using a mild non- abrasive detergent or soap and water , and wipe dr y with a soft cloth. ^ Clean the control panel with a damp cloth. ^ If necessary , the drum can be cleaned using a stainless steel cleaner according to the manufac - turer’s instructions.
Cleaning the drain pump and lint trap Occasionally small objects, (buttons, coins, etc.), may find their way into the lint trap. If the machine does not drain completely , the lint trap should be checked to ensure that it is fr ee of for - eign objects.
^ Once the flow of water stops, remove the lint trap and clean it. ^ Remove any foreign objects (e.g. buttons, coins, etc.) or lint. ^ T ur n the drain pump impeller (in the back of the chamber) by hand to check that it rotates fr eely . ^ Clean the inside of the lint trap hous- ing.
Cleaning the water inlet filters. The washing machine has two water in - let filters to protect each inlet valve. T o c lean the filter in the inlet hose: ^ T ur n off the valve. ^ Carefully unscr ew the inlet hose from the valve by turning the connector counterclockwise using a wr ench if necessary .
Problem solving guide Any work done on the electrical components of this appliance should only be perfor med by a qualified and trained person in ac - cordance with all local and national codes and regulations. Unautho - rized repairs may r esult in personal injury and damage to the machine.
The „Pre-wash“ indicator flashes ^ Start the program again. If the indicator still flashes, call the Miele T echnical Service Department. The „Main wash“ indicator flashes during, or after the end of a program If this occurs again during the next pro - gram,call the Miele Service Depart - ment.
Excessive build-up of f oam T o avoid this problem please note: ^ Use only powder detergents, and carefully follow the manufactur er’s dosage recommendations.If foaming still occurs, cut back to 1/2 of the rec - ommended dosage. ^ For lightly soiled articles or a small load, reduce the amount of detergent accordingly .
The machine shakes during the spin cyc le If this is a new installation, check to see that the shipping struts have been re - moved from the back of the washer . If this occurs on an existing washer , the most likely cause is that the machine’s four feet are not r esting securely on the floor .
After sales service If problems occur that cannot be easily fixed, or if the appliance is under war - ranty , please contact: – The nearest Miele T echnical Service Department (see back cover).
INST ALLA TION INSTRUCTIONS Installation surface Experience has shown that a concrete floor is the most suitable surface for a washing machine. Concrete floors ar e less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floors. Please note the following points: ^ The machine must be level and se - curely positioned.
^ T ur n the right shipping strut 90° clockwise. ^ Withdraw the two struts together with the support plate. ^ Plug the two holes with the plastic caps provided. Movement of the machine without the shipping struts in place should be kept to a minimum.
Leveling the mac hine T o ensure smooth operation, it is es - sential that the machine is level. Failure to level the machine can r esult in the machine “banging” in the spin cycle or “walking” across the floor dur- ing operation. Energy and water use will also increase.
If a countertop is placed over the washer , at least a 1 / 4 gap must be left between the top of the machine and bottom of the countertop; and nothing should be within 1 / 2 ” of any other side of the washing machine.
Plumbing Connect the water supply hose (the hose marked blue) to the cold water valve. T ur n on the valve and check for leaks. The water pressur e must be within 15-145 psi (1-10 bar). If the water pres - sure is gr eater than 145 psi (10 bar), a pressur e reducer must be installed.
Electrical connection GROUNDING INSTR UCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or break - down, grounding will r educe the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric curr ent. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding con - ductor and plug.
Programmable functions The following additional functions can be programmed into the machine if de - sired: A High water level (onl y in “Cottons” rinses). Where rinse r esults are particularly im - portant.(e.g. Soap allergies) B 5th Rinse in the “Cottons” program.

Pr ogrammable functions 36 Carry out steps 1 and 2 within 4 seconds. Step 1: ^ Press the “ON/OFF” button Step 2: ^ Press the “W ater plus” button 4 times (i.
Pr ogrammable functions 37 Step 3: additional function: A High water level (Only in “Cottons” rinse cycles) ^ Set the Program selector to “Quickwash”.
