not need to be descaled. If, however,
you do wish to descale the machine
only use proprietary non-corrosive de-
scaling agents and strictly observe the
instructions. Consult the Miele Cus-
tomer Service Department.
This machine is intended for do-
mestic use, and the guarantee is
on this understanding. If the machine is

Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by
Miele. If other parts are used, guaran-
tee, performance and product liability
claims may be invalidated.
Never use solvent based cleaning
agents in this machine, as this may
result in damage to component parts
and create toxic fumes. Such deter-
gents also pose a fire and explosion ha-
zard.
Disposal of your old machine
Only use dyes specified by the
manufacturer as being suitable for
use in a washing machine. Always ob-
serve the manufacturer’s instructions
carefully.
Before discarding an old machine
unplug it. Render the plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the ap-
pliance to prevent misuse.

Washing environmentally and economically
Washing environmentally and economically
Caring for the environment means sav-
ing water, energy and detergent when
washing but without compromising on
results.
Economy tips
To help you wash most economically,
remember the following tips:
– The automatic load control facility
allows you to wash individual loads
of between 1 and 5 kg. Ideally wash
with the maximum load specified for
each programme. This uses the en-
ergy to the best advantage.
The key to a good wash result is finding
the best combination of amount of
detergent, temperature, length of pro-
gramme and the machine’s technology.
If necessary, some programmes take
longer to achieve this effect. With the
"Hydromatic" system, the drum can re-
volve at different speeds. Longer and
slower action together with pauses for
steeping, work towards a good result.
– Only use the correct amount of deter-
gent required for the water hardness
level in your area, according to the
detergent manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.
The automatic load control facility en-
sures the correct water level for the
type of fabric and laundry load being
washed. Sometimes it even appears
that there is no water in the drum.
– If washing is not heavily stained, se-
lect a lower temperature setting than
indicated on the wash care label but
do not additionally select "Short".
– Use the "Short wash" option for wash-
ing that is only very lightly soiled, but
do not additionally reduce the tem-
perature.
Normally, main wash is sufficient for a
clean result, so a pre-wash is not auto-
matically included in the programmes.
If it is wanted, a simple press on the
pre-wash selector includes it.
– Using the additional "Soak" option
allows you to reduce the tempera-
ture used in the main wash.

show the operating sequense and can
be used as a brief guide.
Before washing
Delicate textiles should be washed sep-
arately in a delicates programme.
1 Prepare the wash load
Any loose wiring in bras etc., should be
removed or sewn in.
Only wash textiles made from wool or
wool mixtures if the textile care label
states that they are suitable for ma-
chine washing.
Pre-treating the washing
Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and
cuffs, and water soluble stains can be
pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter-
gent or detergent mixed into a solution
or paste.
With particularly stubborn stains ask
your Dry Cleaner for advice.
Do not use solvent based cleaning
agents in this machine.
Empty all pockets.
Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,
paper clips etc) can cause damage
to textiles and components in the
machine.
2 Open the door by pressing on the
"Door" button.
Sort the washing
Most garments have a textile care label
in the collar or side seam. Sort the
washing by care label symbols. (See
the Section on these symbols for their
explanation).
Only wash items in this machine which
are declared by the manufacturer as
being machine washable on the textile
care label.

3 Load the drum.
To start a programme
Unfold washing and load loosely in the
drum. To achieve best results it is advis-
able to make up mixed loads consist-
ing of both large and small items.
This improves the washing effect and
helps distribute the load evenly to keep
the machine stable and reduce the
noise level during spinning.
1 Press the I-ON/0-OFF button.
2 Select the required basic
programme.
See page 13 for details of the Memory
function.
Overloading reduces the wash result
and causes more creasing.
3 Select an additional option
if required.
For a delayed start, see Section on the
"Delay start" and "time left display" for
details.

1) A 4th rinse automatically switches in if there is too much foam in the drum, or if a spin speed lower
than 800 rpm has been selected.
2) Increasing the water level:
The water level can be increased from a low level to a higher level by pressing the “Water plus” button.
Top-up rinse:
Additional water flows into the drum, and the suds are cooled slightly. Hot water might damage plastic
drain pipes.
Graduated rinsing:
The suds are cooled at the end of the wash cycle by water flowing in and being pumped away at inter-
vals. This minimises the danger of creasing, by avoiding sudden temperature changes.
WOOL:
Wool is susceptible to damage from movement when it is wet. Drum movement times during the pro-
gram are shorter, and the drum rotates more slowly.

Rinse and interim spin:
There is a spin between the rinses.
Final spin:
The maximum spin speed according to the programme can be selected with the SPIN “+” or “–” touch
pads. In the programmes MINIMUM IRON, and WOOL the spin speed is automatically limited to 900
rpm and in the DELICATES programme to 600 rpm. A lower speed can be selected.
Anti-crease, spin and loosen:
The anti-crease action guards against the tendency for creases to set in when fabrics have been left in
water for a long time. There is drum movement twice a minute. The anti-crease phase can be can-
celled by pressing in the “Door” button.
Rinse hold:
Interim rinse and spin is carried out in the relevant programmes.
At the end of the final rinse the washing remains suspended in water, if “Rinse hold” was selected
under the SPIN options.This helps to reduce the possibility of creasing, if the washing is left for some
time before being taken out of the machine.
Without final spin:
Interim rinse and spin is carried out in the relevant programmes.Washing is not spun after the final
rinse, but the water is drained away, and the machine goes straight into the anti-crease stage.

Additional options
Additional options
The following options are additionally
available for certain wash progammes:
“With pre-wash”
– For heavily soiled and stained items.
“Soak”
“Short wash”
– Shorter main wash time.
– For heavily soiled and stained items
with dried on stains, or ones which
cannot be bleached out, (e.g. blood,
fats and oils, cocoa).
– For lightly soiled items. An additional
reduction in temperature is not rec-
ommended as this may lead to
poorer wash results.
– Soak duration: 2 hours.
– In the COTTONS and MINIMUM
IRON programmes only two rinse
cycles are carried out at high water
level.
Adding detergent for "Soak"
The amount of detergent recom-
mended by the detergent manufac-
turers should be distributed according
to to the wash programme which is to
be run after the "Soak" process.
“Gentle action"
– Drum action is reduced.
– Programmes without pre-wash:
– For gentle washing of slightly soiled
items.
Add the total amount of detergent to
compartment j or directly into the
drum on top of the laundry.
– The programmes Delicates and
Wool have reduced drum action pro-
grammed in automatically.
– Programmes with pre-wash:
1/4 of the detergent should be added
to compartment i for the soak and
pre-wash, and 3/4 added to compart-
ment j for the main wash.
“Water plus”
– the water level increases in all sec-
tions of the programmes COTTONS,
MINIMUM IRON and QUICK WASH
40°C.
– This is recommended for particularly
delicate fabrics, and
– if more water is required for dispens-
ing the detergent.

Installation
Installation
Installation surface
Removing the transit fitting
A concrete floor is the most suitable in-
stallation surface for a washing ma-
chine, being far less prone to vibration
during the spin cycle than wooden
floorboards or a surface with "soft"
properties.
Please note the following points:
The machine must be level and se-
curely positioned.
To avoid vibrations during spinning,
the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.
Turn the left-hand transit
bar 90°.
If installing on a wooden joist floor,
we recommend a plywood base at
least 30 mm thick, 590 x 520 mm
wide. The base should span several
joists and be bolted to the joists, not
only to the floorboards. Check for the
presence of pipes and cables first.
The most stable part of a floor is
usually in the corner.
If the machine is installed on a
raised plinth, it must be secured
against slippage during spin using
retaining clips (available from the
Miele Spare Parts Dept).
Turn the right-hand transit bar
90°.
Installation
Lift the machine from its packaging
base and move it to its site. Please
note:
Do not lift the machine by the drum
door.
Ensure that the machine feet and the
floor are dry to prevent the machine
from slipping during the spin cycle.

The machine is designed to operate
with a minumum water pressure of 1
bar. There is a minimum flow pressure
of 1 bar if 5 litres of water flow into a
suitable container in 15 seconds. The
static water pressure must not exceed
10 bar. If it is higher than 10 bar it is es-
sential to fit a reducer valve.
Connection to water supply
Fitting
The machine should be connected to a
mains water supply in accordance with
standard regulations. In Germany the
washing machine is not required to
have a non-return valve as it has been
designed to comply with DVGW regula-
tions.

The Miele “Waterproof system” con-
nected between the stopcock and the
machine offers the safest protection
against water leaks.
Function
At the heart of this leak protection sys-
tem there is an electric safety valve,
which works like an automatic stop-
cock. The Miele “Waterproof system”
protects from water damage in the fol-
lowing cases:
For the “Waterproof system” to function
correctly, it may only be fitted in the po-
sitions shown (see illustrations).
Connection to the mains water supply
should incorporate a mains stopcock
with 3/4" thread. The stopcock should
be fitted by a qualified plumber.
Protection in the event of a leaking ma-
chine
Any leaking water is collected in a
sump in the base of the appliance. A
float switch switches the safety valve
off electrically, no more water will flow
in.
The connection point is subject to
mains water pressure. Turn on the
stopcock slowly and check for
leaks. Correct the position of the
washer and union if appropriate.
Protection in the event of a leaking water
inlet hose
The “Waterproof system” is NOT
suitable for connection to a hot
water supply.
Leaking water is fed into the sump
through the protective covering which
surrounds the inlet hose as a “second
skin”. The float switch switches off the
water supply.
Maintenance
NB.If you intend to unscrew the “Water-
proof system” unit from the mains water
supply it is essential that the machine is
first disconnected from the electricity
supply.
The protective sleeve of the hose must
not be damaged (see illustration).
Only use a genuine Miele “Waterproof
system” able to withstand pressure of
up to 70 bar, should you ever need a re-
placement.
The “Waterproof system” with a hose
length of approx. 4.5 metres is avail-
able as an optional extra.
The two dirt filters - one at the inlet
point - one in the solenoid valve
inlet, must not be removed.

Connection to the drainage system
Drain hose connection:
The machine drains via a drain pump
with a delivery head of 1 metre.
Direct into a sink: Hook the hose
over the edge and secure. Make
sure that the water can flow freely to
avoid flooding and to prevent water
from being sucked back into the ma-
chine.
The drain hose is 1.5 m long. It must
not be kinked as this restricts drainage.
The Swivel elbow at the end of the
hose can be turned in either direction,
or can be detached if required with a
sharp twist and pull.
Connected to a standpipe.
Connected to a plastic drain pipe
with a rubber nipple. There is no
need to use a non-return valve.
Allow the water to drain off into a
floor drain.
If required, the drain hose can be ex-
tended to a length of 5 m. The necess-
ary parts can be purchased from the
Miele Spareparts department.
For a delivery head of more than 1 m
(up to a maximum of 1.8 m) a second
