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.
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 mac hine if the drum is turning. Y ou ma y seriously injure your self.
Changing the program sequence T o cancel a pr ogram: ^ T ur n the program selector to “Finish/Start”. T o interrupt a pr ogram: ^ Press the “ON/OFF” buttton. T o continue the program, turn the ma - chine back on. T o change an incorrectl y selected program: ^ T ur n the program selector switch to “Finish/Start”.
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 .

INST ALLA TION INSTRUCTIONS Installation surface A concrete floor is the most suitable surface for a washing machine. Con - crete 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.
Any residual water left in the machine fr om the factory test - ing process can be flushed out as follo ws: ^ Do not put any laundry in the ma - chine. ^ Place 1/4 of the recommended amount of detergent in compartment j . ^ T ur n on the machine. ^ Press the “Rapid wash” button.
Plumbing Connections Connect the cold water intake hose (blue mark) to the cold water valve and the hot water intake hose (red mark) to the hot water valve. T ur n on the valves and check for leaks. The water pressur e must be within 15-145 psi (1-10 bar).
