Warning and safety instructions  
The electrical safety of this  
To avoid the risk of accidents and  
machine can only be guaranteed  
when continuity is complete between  
the machine and an effective earthing  
system which complies with local and  
national 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.  
damage to the machine please read  
these instructions carefully before  
using it for the first time. They  
contain important information on its  
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 of the  
machine.  
The manufacturer cannot be held liable  
for the consequences of an inadequate  
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).  
Correct usage  
Do not connect the machine to the  
mains electricity supply by an  
extension lead. Extension leads do not  
guarantee the required safety of the  
machine (e.g. danger of overheating).  
Only use the washing machine to  
wash items which are specified by  
the manufacturer to be machine-wash-  
able on the wash-care label, and tex-  
tiles composed of hand-washable wool  
or wool blend fabrics as well as satin,  
lace, silk and other hand-washable  
garments.  
Any other applications may be danger-  
ous. The manufacturer is not liable for  
damage resulting from improper use or  
operation.  
The machine is built in accordance  
with current safety requirements.  
Unauthorised repairs could result in  
unforeseen dangers for the user, for  
which the manufacturer cannot accept  
liability. Repairs should only be  
undertaken by a Miele approved  
technician.  
Technical safety  
Ensure current is not supplied to the  
machine until after maintenance or  
repair work has been carried out.  
Before setting up the machine,  
check it for any externally visible  
damage. Do not install and use a  
damaged machine.  
The machine is only completely  
isolated from the electricity supply  
when:  
Before connecting the machine,  
ensure that the connection data on  
the data plate match the mains  
electricity supply. If in any doubt,  
consult a qualified electrician.  
– 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and the plug is withdrawn, or  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– the mains fuse is withdrawn.  
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in  
countries where this is applicable).

below freezing point.  
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.  
Before using the machine for the  
first time, check that the transit  
fittings at the rear of the machine have  
been removed (see section on  
"Installation"). During spinning, a transit  
fitting which is still in place may result in  
damage to both the machine and  
adjacent furniture or appliances.  
If the connection cable is faulty it  
must only be replaced by a Miele  
approved service technician to protect  
the user from danger.  
Turn off the stopcock if the  
machine is to be left for any length  
of time (e.g. holiday), especially if there  
is no floor drain (gully) in the immediate  
vicinity.  
In countries where there are 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

sink from overflowing.  
Make sure the drain hose is secure, so  
that the force of the water flowing out of  
the hose does not dislodge it.  
Use  
This equipment may only be used  
in mobile installations such as  
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk  
assessment of the installation has been  
carried out by a suitably qualified  
engineer.  
Take care to ensure that foreign  
objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,  
paper clips) do not find their way into  
the machine with the laundry. These  
may damage components of the  
machine (e.g. suds container, drum),  
which in turn can result in damage to  
the laundry.

Warning and safety instructions  
If 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 strictly observe  
the instructions on the packaging. If in  
doubt, contact the Miele Customer  
Service Dept. or your Miele Dealer.  
Safety with children  
This machine is not a toy! To avoid  
the risk of injury do not allow  
children to play on or near it or to play  
with the controls. Supervise its use by  
the elderly or infirm, and supervise  
children whilst you are operating the  
machine.  
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.  
Textiles which have been  
pre-treated in solvent based  
cleaning agents must be thoroughly  
rinsed in clean water before being  
washed in the machine.  
Never use solvent based cleaning  
agents, e.g. those containing  
benzene, in this machine, as this may  
result in damage to component parts  
and create toxic fumes. Such agents  
also pose a fire and explosion hazard.  
Accessories  
Accessory parts may only be fitted  
when expressly approved by Miele.  
If other parts are used, guarantee,  
performance and product liability  
claims will be invalidated.  
Only use dyes specified by the  
manufacturer as being suitable for  
use in a domestic washing machine.  
Always observe the manufacturer's  
instructions carefully.  
Disposal of your old machine  
Before discarding an old machine,  
switch it off at the wall socket and  
unplug it. Render the plug useless. Cut  
off the cable directly behind the  
appliance to prevent misuse. This  
should be done by a competent  
person.  
Colour run and dye removers  
contain sulphur compounds which  
can cause damage such as corrosion.  
Do not use these products in this  
machine.  
The manufacturer cannot be held  
liable for damage caused by  
non-compliance with these Warning  
and Safety instructions.  
Always make sure the drum is  
stationary before reaching in to  
remove washing. Reaching into a  
moving drum is extremely dangerous.

Programme duration  
After the start of a programme, the  
estimated programme duration will  
appear in the display in hours and  
minutes.  
During the first 10 minutes the washing  
machine measures how much water is  
being absorbed by the laundry and  
uses this to calculate the load. The  
programme duration may be longer or  
shorter depending on this absorbency  
rate.

Before using for the first time  
Before using the machine for the first  
time ensure that it is correctly  
installed and connected. See  
"Installation and connection". Also  
check that the drain filter is securely  
tightened. Otherwise there is a risk  
of water leakage during use.  
For safety reasons spinning is not  
possible until the machine has been  
prepared for using for the first time. To  
activate the spinning function you must  
run a wash programme without laundry  
and without detergent.  
Using detergent could result in an  
excessive build-up of foam.  
This also activates the ball valve. The  
ball valve prevents detergent escaping  
from the suds container into the sump  
during a wash programme, thus making  
maximum use of the detergent.  
^ Open the stopcock.  
^ Press the I-On/0-Off button in.  
^ Turn the programme selector to  
Cottons 60°C.  
^ Press Start.  
When this programme has finished turn  
the programme selector to Finish. Your  
washing machine is ready for using for  
the first time.

Washing environmentally and economically  
Energy and water consumption  
Detergent  
– 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  
for the programme you are using.  
– Reduce the amount of detergent with  
smaller loads (approx. 1/3 less than  
the amount recommended can be  
used when washing a half load).  
– Use the Automatic and Express  
programmes for small loads.  
Additional options  
(Short, Soak, Pre-wash)  
– When smaller amounts of laundry are  
washed using the Cottons  
programmes, the automatic load  
recognition system will reduce the  
amount of water, time and energy  
used. This may mean that the time  
left shown in the display is adjusted  
during the course of the wash  
programme.  
Select:  
– A wash programme together with the  
Short option for light to normal soiling  
where there are no obvious marks.  
– A wash programme without any  
additional options for normal to  
heavy soiling with visible staining.  
– Using the Cottons 60°C programme  
instead of the Cottons 95°C  
– A wash programme together with the  
Soak option for heavily soiled  
laundry.  
programme will give energy savings  
of between 35% and 45%. This is  
sufficient for most levels of soiling.  
For stubborn or old stains, use the  
Soak option.  
– The Pre-wash additional option for  
laundry with large amounts of dirt  
(e.g. dust, sand).  
– Use the additional option Soak  
instead of Pre-wash. If Soak is  
followed immediately by a main  
wash, the same suds are used.  
When drying with a tumble dryer  
– Selecting the highest possible spin  
speed for the wash programme will  
save energy when drying in a tumble  
dryer afterwards.

Programme sequence  
This washing machine has fully  
electronic controls with automatic load  
recognition. It takes in the right amount  
of water required for the programme  
depending on the amount of laundry  
and its absorbency rate. This means  
that programme cycles and durations  
can vary.  
Special features in the programme  
sequences:  
Anti-crease:  
At the end of every programme, with  
the exception of the Woollens  
programme, 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 anti-crease phase.  
The programme sequences outlined in  
the chart are based on the basic  
programme with a full load. Additional  
options which can be selected have not  
been taken into account.  
1)  
The water level in the rinses is  
increased when a temperature below  
60°C is selected.  
The programme sequence display  
shows the stage the programme has  
reached.  
A third rinse is carried out if:  
– there is too much foam in the drum  
– a spin speed lower than 700 rpm has  
been selected  
– Without spin has been selected  
2) A third rinse is carried out if:  
Without spin has been selected

Detergent  
The correct detergent  
All modern detergents produced for automatic washing machines are suitable.  
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.  
Do not use biological detergents on silk as the enzymes may damage the silk!  
Instructions for use and recommended amounts for a full load are given on the  
detergent packaging.  
Liquid detergent should be dispensed using a ball provided by the manufacturer  
for programmes without a pre-wash.  
For programmes with a pre-wash you will need to purchase a special container  
from the Miele Spare Parts department which sits in the main wash compartment  
j of the detergent dispenser drawer. Add liquid detergent to this container for  
the main wash and to compartment i for the pre-wash.

Detergent  
The right amount to dispense will  
depend on the following:  
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.  
– The quantity of laundry.  
– The soiling level of the laundry.  
Lightly soiled  
No visible dirt or stains.  
Normally soiled  
Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight  
stains.  
Use a quantity of detergent as for soft  
water.  
Miele do not recommend connecting  
the machine to a household water  
softener.  
Heavily soiled  
Visible dirt and stains and/or dried on  
soiling.  
– The water hardness level.  
Check with your local water supplier  
if you do not know the hardness level  
in your area.  
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:  
1. Detergent  
2. Water softener  
3. Stain remover  
This way the agents are distributed  
more evenly.

Fabric conditioners and liquid  
starch  
If starching frequently, the dispenser  
compartment and especially the  
siphon tube and conditioner channel  
will need regular cleaning to remove  
any residual starch. See "Cleaning  
the detergent dispenser drawer".  
Do not add powder starch  
formulations or viscous liquid starch  
to the § compartment as it will clog  
up. See below.  
Fabric conditioners make garments soft  
to handle and help prevent static cling  
when tumble drying.  
Starch stiffens and gives body to items  
of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and  
bed linen.  
Automatic dispensing of fabric  
conditioner or liquid starch to  
laundry at the end of a programme  
Adding fabric conditioner or starch  
separately  
^ Dispense in accordance with  
manufacturer's instructions on the  
packaging.  
^ Add powder or viscose starch to  
compartment i.  
^ Add the fabric conditioner or liquid  
starch to compartment §.  
^ Turn the programme selector to  
Separate rinse/Starch  
^ Add the fabric conditioner or liquid  
starch to compartment §. Do not  
exceed the maximum level mark.  
^ Select a spin speed.  
^ Press the Start button.  
It will be automatically dispensed in the  
last rinse. At the end of the programme  
a small amount of water remains in the  
fabric conditioner compartment §.  
Colour run and dye removers /  
dyes  
^ Do not use colour run or dye  
removers in this washing machine.  
^ Dyes suitable for use in domestic  
washing machines can be used.  
However, please note that the salt  
used in the dyeing process can  
cause corrosion to stainless steel  
components in the machine if you  
dye frequently. Always observe the  
manufacturer's instructions carefully.

Cleaning and care  
Extra cleaning  
,Disconnect the machine from the  
mains electricity supply and  
withdraw the plug from the socket  
prior to cleaning the machine.  
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  
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.  
^ Clean the casing with a mild  
non-abrasive detergent or soap and  
water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.  
^ Clean the fascia panel with a damp  
cloth and 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.  
,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.  
The washing machine must not be  
hosed down.  
E-Cloth  
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from  
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,  
which is suitable for cleaning surfaces  
such as stainless steel, glass, plastic  
and chrome without the use of  
chemicals. It can be washed 300 times.

Cleaning and care  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
drawer  
Remove detergent residues regularly.  
^ Clean the siphon.  
1. Remove the siphon from  
compartment §. Wash under  
running warm water. Clean the  
siphon tube in the same way.  
^ 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.  
2. Replace the siphon.  
Over time, detergent residue can build  
up in the water jets in the top of the  
detergent drawer housing.  
^ Clean the detergent drawer with  
warm water.  
^ Before replacing the detergent  
drawer, use a bottle brush or similar  
to clean them out.

Cleaning and care  
Cleaning the water inlet filters  
To clean the filter in the water inlet  
valve:  
The washing machine has two filters to  
protect the inlet valves.  
^ Using pliers, carefully loosen the  
ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve  
and unscrew.  
These filters should be checked every  
six months or so, or more often if there  
are frequent interruptions to the water  
supply.  
To clean the filter in the union in the  
open end of the inlet hose:  
^ First turn off the stopcock.  
^ Use pointed nose pliers to withdraw  
the plastic filter by the bar (see  
illustration). Clean, put back and  
secure.  
The two filters must be put back in  
place after cleaning.  
^ Unscrew the threaded union  
connecting the free end of the inlet  
hose to the stopcock.  
^ Remove the rubber seal 1 from the  
recess.  
^ Using pointed pliers, take hold of the  
plastic filter bar 2, remove the filter  
and clean it.  
^ Put the filter and seal back in the  
reverse order and reconnect the  
hose.  
^ Turn on the stopcock and check the  
connection is watertight. If it leaks,  
tighten the connection.

Installation and connection  
Installation surface  
Installing the washing machine  
A concrete floor is the most suitable  
installation surface for a washing  
machine, 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 installation site hold  
it by the edge of the lid where it  
protrudes to the rear of the washing  
machine as well as by the handle  
recesses at the front.  
Please note the following points:  
Do not lift the machine by the drum  
door.  
^ The machine must be level and  
securely positioned.  
^ To avoid vibrations during spinning,  
the machine should not be installed  
on soft floor coverings.  
,Ensure that the machine feet and  
the floor are dry to prevent the  
machine from slipping during the  
spin cycle.  
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.  
Removing the transit bars  
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.

Installation and connection  
,The washing machine must not  
be moved without the transit bars in  
place.  
Store the transit bars as shown or  
keep them in a safe place for future  
use. They must be re-fitted if the  
machine is to be moved again  
(e.g.when moving house).  
Re-fitting the transit bars  
Re-fitting is carried out by reversing the  
procedure.  
^ Fit the covers on to the two holes.  
Then plug the holes as shown with  
the caps.  
^ Secure the transit bars to the back of  
the washing machine. Make sure that  
holes b are fitted over retainers a.

Installation and connection  
Levelling the machine  
The machine must stand perfectly level  
on all four feet to ensure safe and  
proper operation.  
^ Using the spanner supplied turn  
counter nut 2 in a clockwise  
direction. Then turn counter nut 2  
together with foot 1 to unscrew.  
^ Use a spirit level to check the  
machine is standing level.  
Incorrect installation may increase  
electricity and water consumption and  
may cause the machine to move about.  
^ 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.  
Screwing out and adjusting the feet  
The four adjustable screw feet are used  
to level the machine. All four feet are  
screwed in when the machine is  
delivered.  
,All four counternuts must be  
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 washing machine  
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 the washing 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  
washing machine from being  
emptied completely.  
2) the electronic unit and the washing  
machine housing  
3) the drain hose  
1) Inlet hose  
The inlet hose can withstand  
pressure of more than 7,000 kPa.  
2) Electronic unit and washing  
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 two dirt filters - one in the  
open end of the inlet hose, one at  
the inlet point in the machine 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  
washing machine has been designed  
to comply with DIN regulations.  
Extension hose  
– Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length  
are available from your Miele dealer  
or the Miele Spare Parts Department  
as optional extras.  
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  
pressure reducing valve.  
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.  
The washing 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 should  
you ever need a replacement or  
extension. These are tested to  
withstand pressure of at least  
7,000 kPa.

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*.  
– Hook the hose over the edge and  
secure.  
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.  
– 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 be 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.  
* For a delivery head of more than 1 m  
(up to a maximum of 1.8 m) a second  
duo-drain pump is available with the  
corresponding kit from the Miele Spare  
Parts Department or your Miele Dealer.  
3. Connected securely to a standpipe.  
4. Connected securely to a floor gully.
