General tips
– Dark fabrics often bleed the first few
times they are washed. They should
be washed separately several times
before being included in a mixed
load.
– Remove any lead weights or strips
from curtains before washing.
– Loose under-wires should be
removed or sewn in place before
washing.
– Woolens and knitted garments
should be turned inside out.
^ Empty all pockets.
– Close zippers and hooks and eyes
before washing.
,Foreign objects left in pockets
(e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.)
can cause damage to clothes and
the machine.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened in order to
prevent small items from getting
trapped inside of them.
^ Pre-treat stains.
Do not machine wash items if it is not
recommended on the fabric care label.
Tough stains (blood, egg, coffee, tea
etc.) or badly soiled areas (collars and
cuffs) should be pre-treated with a stain
remover or a paste made of powder
detergent and warm water. Dab stains
with a damp light colored cloth. Do not
rub.
,Do not use chemical solvents in
the machine.

The amount of detergent used

Water softener
If the water hardness level is between II
and III, you can soften the water to
reduce detergent consumption.
Normal soiling
Some visible soiling or a few light stains
Heavy soiling
Very visible soiling or stains
The detergent packaging should
indicate the correct amount to use in
your machine. Add the detergent, then
add the water softener. From then on
you can then use the recommended
amount of detergent for water hardness

The size of the load and the water

Installation
Installation site
^ Install the unit on a 27 9/16" x 23 5/8" x
1 3/16" (70 x 60 x 3 cm) plywood
base. Ideally the base should be
large enough to span several joists
and should be anchored to the joists
and not just the floor boards.
The appliance is not intended to be
mounted in a wall or other vertical
surface of a building or cabinet. The
unit is allowed for built-in
application.
It is best to install the washer in the
corner of a room, where the stability of
the floor is at its greatest.
,The machine may not be
operated without the lid in place.
Installation
^ Use the front washer feet and the
rear excess end to transport the
washer from its shipping pallet to the
installation site.
Do not lift the washer by the drum
door.
,Do not install the machine
directly next to or over an open floor
drain or drain channel. Moisture can
penetrate the machine and damage
electrical parts.
A concrete floor is the most suitable
surface for the washer. Concrete floors
are less prone to vibration during the
spin cycle than wooden floors.
,Ensure that the machine’s feet
and the floor are dry to prevent
slippage during the spin cycle.
Removing the shipping struts
,If the machine is installed on a
masonry or concrete base it must
be secured with retaining clips to
prevent the washer from vibrating off
the stand during the spin cycle.
^ The machine must be leveled and
securely positioned.
^ To avoid vibration while spinning, the
machine should not be installed on
soft floor coverings.
In case the installation must be on a
wooden joist floor:
^ Remove the left and right rotary
protectors.
1. Unhook the rotary protector with a
screw driver.
2. Remove the rotary protectors.

,Movement of the washer without
the shipping struts in place should
be kept to a minimum. The shipping
struts should be stored on the back
of the washer for future use. They
must be reinstalled before moving
the machine.
Installing the shipping struts
^ Reinstall the struts by reversing the
installation procedure.
^ Close the holes with the rotary
protectors and their caps.
^ Fasten the shipping struts at the rear
side of the washer. Take care to
insert the drill holes, b, into the
clamps, a.

Leveling the washer
Adjust the four leveling feet
The washer is leveled by adjusting the
four feet. The machine is boxed with the
feet completely screwed in.
To ensure smooth operation the washer
must be level.
Failure to level the machine can result
in increased water and energy
consumption as well as the washer
"banging" during the spin cycle or
"walking" across the floor during use.
^ Turn the locking nut, 2, counter-
clockwise with the enclosed
combination wrench. Unscrew each
of the four feet as much as necessary
by turning both the foot, 1, and the
locking nut, 2, to the left.
^ Check that the machine stands level.
^ Once level, hold the foot, 1, steady
with a wrench. Turn the locking nut,
2, with the combination wrench
towards the machine.
,All four locking nuts must be
tight against the bottom of the
machine. In addition, check to see
that the feet were not inadvertently
unscrewed while tightening the nuts.
Running a machine that is not level
or whose feet are not tight may
cause damage to both the machine
and its surrounding area.

Washer/ Dryer Stack
Installation on a base
The machine can be installed on an
open or closed steel base, or on a
concrete base. Concrete is
recommended.
^ Secure the two front feet of the
washer with the supplied retaining
clips when installing on a concrete
base.
^ Read the supplied Installation
manual.
Coin mechanism
The dryer can be equipped with a coin
mechanism*.
The Miele washing machine can be
installed as part of a washer-dryer
stack in combination with a Miele
tumble dryer. An appropriate stacking
kit* is required.
The reprogramming necessary for the
coin mechanism must be done by a
Miele Service Technician.
Empty the coin mechanism
regularly. Coins or tokens may get
jammed.
Installation of the stacking kit must be
performed by a Miele Service
Technician.
Reinstallation of the machine lid
Do not install devices to auto-
matically turn the washer off, e.g. a
clock timer. The washer must be
connected to the power supply to
open the door.
When reinstalling the appliance lid,
check the firm fit of the cover at the rear
bracket for a safe transport of the dryer.
The supplied sticker must be affixed at
or near by the washer: "This washer
must be connected to the power supply
to open the drum door. Do not use
force to open the door."

The water pressure must be between
14.5 -145 psi (1 -10 bar). If the water
pressure is greater than 145 psi

Installation
Drainage
If necessary the drain hose can be
extended up to 16’ 5" (5 m). The hose
extension can be purchased from your
Miele dealer or Miele.
There are two drainage extras for this
machine:
Drain valve
The drain pump must be replaced for
drain heights over 3 ft (1 m). The
maximum allowable drain height is 5 ft
11 in (1.8 m). A stronger pump for
these heights can be purchased from
your Miele dealer or Miele.
The machine is drained with a
motorized drain valve. A connection
can be made to an on-site floor drain
(gully with an air gap) on an angle.
Drain pump
The wash water is drained using a
pump with a 3 ft (1 m) delivery height.
Make sure there are no kinks in the
drain hose. The elbow on the end of the
drain hose can be turned or removed if
necessary.
Possible connections:
1. Directly into a sink: Hook the hose
over the edge of the sink and secure
it firmly (e.g. by tying the hose to the
water faucet).
2. To a stand pipe: Place the drain
hose into a 11/2" (4 cm) stand pipe
and secure it firmly.
3. To a floor drain: The machine is
equipped with an air gap/
anti-siphoning system so that no
minimum drain height is required.
