– Water consumption and energy  
usage are determined by the size of  
the load.  
– Do not exceed the amounts of  
detergent recommended by the  
manufacturer on the packaging.  
To make the most out of your  
machine, load the maximum dry load

Brief instructions  
^ Sort the laundry by colour and by  
care label. Most garments have a  
textile care label in the collar or side  
seam.  
The headings numbered A, B, C, . . .  
show the operating sequence and can  
be used as brief instructions.  
Dark textiles often contain excess dye  
and should be washed separately  
several times before being included in a  
mixed load. Always wash whites and  
coloureds separately.  
Separate washing  
ASort the laundry  
– Curtains: Remove lead weights first  
or place in a laundry bag.  
– Underwiring and collar stiffeners: Any  
loose wiring in bras, shirt collar  
stiffeners, etc. should be removed or  
sewn in.  
– Knitted garments, trousers and jeans,  
T-shirts and sweat shirts: Turn inside  
out, if recommended by the  
manufacturer.  
^ Empty all pockets.  
– Close any zips, fasten hooks and  
eyes etc before washing.  
,Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,  
paper clips, etc.) can cause damage  
to garments and components in the  
machine.  
– Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases  
to prevent small items from being  
trapped inside them.  
Do not wash any items in this machine  
which are specified by the  
manufacturer as non-machine  
washable on the care label. (h  
symbol)  
^ Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should  
be cleaned as soon as possible,  
preferably whilst still fresh. Spillages  
should be carefully dabbed off using  
a soft colourfast cloth. Do not rub!  
Badly soiled areas can be pre-treated  
with liquid detergent, stain removers  
etc. first, following the manufacturer's  
instructions. With particularly stubborn  
stains ask your dry cleaner for advice.

the drum continues to turn at intervals  
for up to 30 minutes to help prevent  
creasing. The door can be opened and  
laundry removed at any time during the

Detergent  
All modern detergents produced for  
automatic washing machines are  
suitable, including liquid, compact  
(concentrated), tablets and special  
application detergents. Use dispensing  
aids, e.g. balls, if these are supplied  
with the detergent. Tablets are suitable  
for full loads but note that it may be  
impractical to reduce tablets for smaller  
loads. Some tablets do not dissolve as  
rapidly as others and may not be  
suitable for programmes with short  
durations.

WASHING  
The right amount to dispense will  
depend on the following:  
Washing with several components  
If you wash using several components  
(e.g. special application detergents),  
we recommend always dispensing the  
agents into compartment j in the  
following order:  
– The soiling level of the laundry  
Lightly soiled  
No visible dirt or stains.  
Normally soiled  
1. Detergent  
Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight  
stains.  
2. Water softeners  
3. Stain remover  
Heavily soiled  
Stains and soiling clearly visible.  
This way the agents are distributed  
more evenly.  
– The water hardness level.  
Check with your local water supplier  
if you do not know the hardness level  
in your area.  
– The quantity of the laundry (add the  
recommended amount of detergent).  
Water softeners  
A water softener can be used to cut  
down on the use of detergents in hard  
water areas. Dispense according to the  
amount specified on the packaging.  
First add detergent and then the water  
softener.  
Use a quantity of detergent as for soft  
water.  
Miele do not recommend connecting  
the machine to a household water  
softener.

DRYING  
Separate drying  
– Down-filled garments have linings  
which have a tendency to shrink,  
depending on the quality of the item.  
They can be partially dried using the  
Smoothing programme.  
The separate drying programme must  
be used if the load in the wash  
programme is greater than the  
maximum load permitted for drying,  
or if you only want to dry part of the  
load that was washed.  
– Pure linen should only be machine  
dried if specified as suitable by the  
manufacturer on the care label, as  
the surface of the fabric may

otherwise tend to roughen. They can  
be partially dried using the

Smoothing programme.  
r Dry at a low temperature  
(select the Low temperature extra  
option)  
– Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts and  
underwear) tend to shrink depending  
on their quality.Do not over-dry these  
textiles. When purchasing these  
s Do not tumble dry  
garments it is advisable to take their  
shrinkage properties into account.  
If there is no symbol, dry at your own  
risk applying the following principles:  
– Starched laundry can be dried in the  
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual  
finish, double the amount of starch  
should be used.  
– Cottons and minimum iron items  
should be dried using the  
appropriate programme.  
– Delicate fabrics, e.g. acrylics, should  
be dried at a low temperature (select  
the Low temperature extra option).  
– Minimum iron fabrics and 100%  
cotton shirts or blouses tend to  
crease more, the larger the load. This  
is particulary the case with delicate  
fabrics. If in doubt, reduce the load or  
use the Shirts programme.  
Tips on drying  
Do not put soaking wet items into the  
tumble dryer. Spin them thoroughly  
after washing using the appropriate  
spin speed.  
– New dark coloured garments should  
be washed and dried separately from  
light coloured garments to avoid the  
danger of colours running and  
discolouring other garments. Dark  
coloured fibres can also settle on  
light coloured garments and vice  
versa.  
– Woollens and wool blends tend to  
become matted and shrink if dried in  
a tumble dryer. They can be partially  
dried using the Woollens programme.

it. Danger of burning!  
After drying  
^ Remove the laundry.  
Rinse out fluff programme  
The fluff which occurs during drying  
can collect in the drum and also in the  
suds container. It is best to rinse out this  
fluff before the machine is used again  
so that it cannot be deposited on the  
next load (e.g. fluff from dark garments  
being deposited on lighter coloured  
items) or cause a blockage.  
The Rinse out fluff programme must  
not be used for rinsing laundry. Make  
sure that there is no laundry in the  
drum before starting this programme.  
^ Check the folds in the door seal for any  
small articles, e.g. buttons which might  
be lodged there. Remove any fluff from  
drying from around the door seal.  
^ Switch the machine on.  
^ Turn the programme selector to the  
Rinse out fluff programme.  
Check that all items have been  
removed from the drum. Items left  
behind could colour run, shrink or be  
damaged in the next washing or  
drying programme.  
^ Press the Start/Stop button.  
The fluff will be rinsed out after a few  
minutes.  
^ Remove any remaining fluff from  
around the door seal.  
Important: Always remove the laundry  
before switching the machine off. This  
is important to ensure that the load  
size indicator works correctly the next  
time the machine is used.  
^ Switch the machine off.  
The load size sensor must be  
recalibrated to zero after running the  
Rinse out fluff programme. See

Cleaning and care  
Extra cleaning  
,Disconnect the machine from the  
electricity supply by switching off at  
the wall socket and withdrawing the  
plug before any cleaning and  
maintenance work.  
Carry out a hot wash (70°C or above)  
with powder detergent approx. every 6  
weeks to help prevent deposits building  
up in the machine. These can occur  
when washing is mainly done at low  
temperatures, and also lead to  
Cleaning the machine  
unpleasant smells. If you have no  
reason to wash occasionally at this high  
temperature, then run a Cottons 95°C  
programme with detergent but no  
laundry at regular intervals.  
,Do not use solvents, abrasive  
cleaners, glass cleaners or  
all-purpose cleaning agents.  
These might damage plastic  
surfaces and other components  
because of the chemicals they  
contain.  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
drawer  
Remove detergent residues regularly.  
,The machine must not be hosed  
down.  
^ Clean the casing with a mild  
non-abrasive cleaning agent or soap  
and water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.  
^ The drum can be cleaned using a  
suitable proprietary stainless-steel  
cleaning agent following the  
manufacturer's instructions on the  
packaging.  
^ Pull out the detergent dispenser  
drawer until a resistance is felt. Press  
down the release catch and at the  
same time pull the drawer right out of  
the machine.  
E-Cloth  
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from  
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,  
or via the internet (depending on  
country), which is suitable for cleaning  
surfaces such as stainless steel, glass,  
plastic and chrome without the use of  
chemicals.  
^ Clean the detergent drawer with  
warm water.

Cleaning and care  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
drawer housing  
^ Clean the siphon.  
^ Use a bottle brush to remove  
detergent residues and limescale  
from the jets inside the detergent  
dispenser drawer housing.  
1. Remove the siphon from  
compartment § and rinse under  
warm running water. Clean the  
siphon tube in the same way.  
2. Replace the siphon.  
Descaling the machine  
It the correct amount of detergent is  
dispensed, the machine should not  
need to be descaled. If, however, you  
do wish to descale the machine, only  
use proprietary non-corrosive descaling  
agents and striclty observe the  
instructions on the packaging. A special  
descaling agent is available to order  
from the Miele Spare Parts Department  
or via the internet (depending on  
country).  
If starching frequently, thoroughly  
clean the siphon and siphon tube  
regularly. A build-up of starch will  
cause them to get clogged.

Installation and connection  
Installation surface  
Installing the washer-dryer  
A concrete floor is the most suitable  
installation surface, being far less  
prone to vibration during the spin cycle  
than wooden floorboards or a carpeted  
surface.  
To manoeuvre the machine out of its  
packing case to its installlation site,  
hold it by the edge of the lid where it  
protrudes to the rear of the machine as  
well as by the handle recesses at the  
front.  
Please note the following points:  
,Ensure that the machine feet and  
the floor are dry to prevent the  
machine from slipping during the  
spin cycle.  
^ The machine must be level and  
securely positioned.  
^ To avoid vibrations during spinning,  
the machine should not be installed  
on soft floor coverings.  
Removing the transit fittings  
If installing on a wooden joist floor:  
^ We recommend a plywood base (at  
least 59x52x3 cm) The base should  
span several joists and be bolted to  
the joists and not only to the  
floorboards. Check for the presence  
of pipes and cables first.  
If possible, install the machine in a  
corner, as this is usually the most stable  
part of the floor.  
,If the machine is installed on a  
raised plinth, it has to be secured  
against slippage during spinning  
using retaining clips (available from  
the Miele Spare Parts Dept).  
^ To remove the left and right covers  
1. Use a screwdriver to prise out the  
cover as illustrated.  
2. Pull the cover forwards to remove.

Building under a continous worktop /  
in a kitchen run  
The four adjustable screw feet are used  
to level the machine. All four feet are  
screwed in when the machine is  
delivered.  
The fitting of building under kits must  
only be undertaken by qualified and  
competent persons, in accordance  
with the instructions supplied with  
the kit.  
If you wish to push your machine under  
a worktop and there is space to do this  
without removing the lid, the  
conversion kit is not necessary.  
Otherwise it is essential.  
– The building under conversion kit*  
includes a cover plate which must be  
fitted to ensure electrical safety.  
– When installing under a 900/910 mm  
high worktop a raising kit* is  
required.  
^ Using the spanner supplied turn  
counter nut 2 in a clockwise direction.  
Then turn counter nut 2 together with  
foot 1 to unscrew.  
– Connections for electricity, water and  
drainage should be installed in such  
a way that they remain accessible  
when the machine is in place.  
^ Use a spirit level to check the  
machine is standing level.  
^ Hold foot 1 securely with a pipe  
wrench. Turn counter nut 2 again  
using the spanner supplied until it  
sits firmly up against the housing.  
Fitting instructions are supplied with the  
conversion kit.  
All parts marked * are available from the  
Miele Spare Parts Department.  
,All four counternuts must sit  
firmly up against the housing. Please  
also check this for the feet which did  
not need adjustment. Otherwise  
there is the danger of the machine  
moving about.

Installation and connection  
The Miele water protection  
system  
– Overflow protection  
This prevents the maching taking in  
too much water. If the water level  
exceeds a certain level, the drain  
pump switches in and pumps the  
excess water away.  
The Miele water protection system  
protects machine from water damage.  
The system consists of three main  
components:  
3) Drain hose  
1) the inlet hose  
The drain hose is protected by a  
ventilation system which prevents the  
machine from being emptied  
completely.  
2) the electronic unit and the machine  
housing  
3) the drain hose  
1) Inlet hose  
– The inlet hose is tested to withstand  
pressure of more than 14,000 kPa.  
– It has a protective sleeve which is  
made from metal to protect the hose  
from damage.  
2) Electronic unit and machine  
housing  
– Sump  
Any leaking water is collected in a  
sump in the base of the machine. A  
float switches off the safety valves,  
preventing any more water flowing  
into the machine and water in the  
suds container is pumped away.

Installation and connection  
Connection to the water  
supply  
In order to protect the water inlet  
valve, the dirt filter in the water inlet  
valve connection must not be  
removed.  
The machine should be connected to a  
mains water supply in accordance with  
local and national safety regulations.  
The German authorities do not require it  
to have a non-return valve as the  
Extension hose  
A 1.5 metre long (metal) extension hose  
is available from your Miele dealer or  
the Miele Spare Parts Department as an  
optional extra.  
washer-dryer has been designed to  
comply with DIN regulations.  
The machine is designed to operate  
with a flow pressure of between  
100 kPa and 1,000 kPa. If it is higher  
than 1,000 kPa it is essential to fit a  
reducer valve.  
This hose is tested to withstand  
pressures of up to 14,000 kPa and can  
be used as a flexible extension to the  
water supply.  
Connection to the mains water supply  
should incorporate a mains stopcock  
with 3/4" thread. The stopcock should be  
fitted by a qualified plumber.  
,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.  
This machine is not suitable for  
connection to a hot water supply and  
connection to a household water  
softener is not recommended.  
Maintenance and care  
Only use a genuine Miele hose which is  
pressure tested to 14,000 kPa should  
you ever need a replacement or  
extension.

Installation and connection  
Connection to the drainage  
system  
Drain hose connection:  
1. Direct into a sink or basin.  
Please note the following:  
The machine drains via a drain pump  
with a delivery head of 1 metre. The  
drain hose 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.  
– Hook the hose over the edge and  
secure.  
– Make sure that the water can drain  
away freely without hindrance.  
Otherwise there is a risk of water  
overflowing or of some of the drained  
water being sucked back into the  
machine.  
If required the drain hose can be  
extended to a length of 5 m. The  
necessary parts can purchased from  
the Miele Spare Parts Department or  
your Miele dealer.  
2. Connected securely to a plastic drain  
pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no  
need to use a non-return valve.  
3. Connected securely to a standpipe.  
4. Connected securely to a floor gully.
