supply. If in any doubt, consult a  
qualified electrician.  
To avoid the risk of accidents and  
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 operating 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 electrical safety of this  
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.  
Correct usage  
The manufacturer cannot be held liable  
for the consequences of an inadequate  
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).  
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.  
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).  
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.  
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.  
Ensure current is not supplied to the  
appliance until after maintenance or

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  
fitting at the rear of the machine has  
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

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 Ser-  
vice 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 in this machine, as this may  
result in damage to component parts  
and create toxic fumes. Such  
detergents 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.

Your machine also has the following  
special programmes in addition to the  
standard Cottons and Minimum iron  
programmes.  
Delicates and Silks /programmes

Before using for the first time  
Before using the machine for the first  
time ensure that it is correctly  
installed and connected. See the  
relevant section under "Installation".  
Also check that the fluff 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 40°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 or the Quick wash  
programmes for small loads.

(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  
programme duration 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.  
– Instead of using the Cottons 95°C  
programme, use the Cottons 60°C  
programme. This will give an energy  
saving of between 35% and 45%.  
This combination is sufficient for  
most levels of soiling. For stubborn  
or old stains, use the Soak option.  
A wash programme together with the  
Soak option for heavily soiled  
laundry.  
– 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.

Detergent  
All modern detergents produced for  
automatic washing machines are  
suitable, including liquid, compact  
(concentrated), tablets, liquid 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 Quick wash  
The right amount to dispense will  
depend on the following:  
– The quantity of laundry.  
– The soiling level of the laundry.  
Lightly soiled  
No visible dirt or stains. Possibly  
slight body odour.  
Normally soiled  
Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight  
stains.  
Heavily soiled  
Stains and soiling clearly visible.  
– The water hardness level.  
Check with your local water supplier  
if you do not know the water  
hardness level in your area.  
programmes.  
Woollens and knitwear containing wool  
mixtures and hand-washable garments  
should be washed using a detergent  
specifically designed for washing  
woollens.  
Water softeners  
Silk should be washed using a liquid  
detergent specifically designed for  
washing woollens. Do not use  
biological detergents on silk as the  
enzymes may damage the silk!  
A water softener can be used to cut  
down on the use of detergents in  
extremely 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.  
Instructions for use and recommended  
amounts for a full load are given on the  
detergent packaging.  
Liquid detergent  
Liquid detergent should be dispensed  
using a ball provided by the manufac-  
turer for programmes without a pre-  
wash.  
Washing with several  
components  
If you wash using several components  
(e.g. special application detergents),  
dispense them into compartment jin  
the following order:  
For programmes with a pre-wash you  
will need to purchase a special con-  
tainer from the Miele Spare Parts de-  
partment which sits in the main wash  
compartment jof the detergent dis-  
penser drawer. Add liquid detergent to  
this container for the main wash and to

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 starch formulations or  
viscous liquid starch to the §

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,  
Part number 98013530, 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.  
31  
 
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.  
32  
 
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:  
Please note:  
^ The machine must be level and  
securely positioned.  
^ Do not lift the machine by the drum  
door.  
^ 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 fittings  
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.  
45  
 
Installation and connection  
^ Using the spanner supplied turn the  
left-hand transit bar 90°, then  
^ Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°,  
then  
^ withdraw the transit bar.  
^ withdraw the transit bar.  
46  
 
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.  
47  
 
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.  
50  
 
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  
reducer 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.  
51  
 
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.
