Warning and Safety instructions

It is essential to read the operating instructions.

This washer-dryer conforms to current safety requirements.

Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and

damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the washer-dryer,

please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first

time. They contain important information on its installation, 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.

Correct application

This washer-dryer is not designed for commercial use. It is

intended for use in domestic households and in similar working and

residential environments.

It must only be used as a domestic appliance to

– wash items which are specified by the manufacturer as being

washable on the care label.

– dry items which have been washed in a water solution and which

are marked on the manufacturer's care label as being suitable for

tumble drying. If using dry cleaning kits, do so at your own risk,

and follow the instructions provided on the packaging.

Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be

dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from

incorrect or improper use or operation.

Warning and Safety instructions

The washer-dryer is not intended for outdoor use.

The washer-dryer can only be used by people with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been

shown how to use it in a safe way and understand the hazards

involved.

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the

washer-dryer unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the washer-dryer without

supervision if they have been shown how to do so in a safe way and

understand the hazards involved.

Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Before setting up the washer-dryer, check it for any externally

visible damage.

Do not install or use a damaged machine.

Before connecting the washer-dryer, ensure that the connection

data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the

mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified

electrician.

The electrical safety of this washer-dryer can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety

requirement is observed and regularly tested, and where there is

any doubt the household wiring system should be inspected by a

qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the

consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric

shock).

Do not connect the washer-dryer 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).

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 service technician,

otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the

guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

The washer-dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in

the event of a fault and during installation, maintenance and repair

work.

The Miele "Water protection system" protects from water damage

provided the following conditions have been met:

– the washer-dryer is correctly plumbed in and connected to the

electricity supply.

– if a fault has been identified, the washer-dryer must be examined

by a competent person before further use, and repaired if

necessary.

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.

If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced

by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from

danger.

The washer-dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location

(e.g. on a ship).

Do not make any alterations to the washer-dryer, unless

authorised to do so by Miele.

In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or

other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the washer-dryer

and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage

which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be

covered by the guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Do not install your washer-dryer in rooms where temperatures

below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The

reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at

temperatures below freezing point.

Before using the washer-dryer for the first time, check that the

transit bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see

"Installation and connection - Removing the transit bars"). During

spinning, a transit fitting which is still in place may result in damage

to both the washer-dryer and adjacent furniture or appliances.

Turn off the stopcock if the washer-dryer is to be left for any

length of time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is no floor drain

(gully) in the immediate vicinity.

Flooding danger. If hooking the drain hose into a wash basin,

check that the water can drain off quickly enough to prevent the sink

from overflowing. Make sure that the drain hose is secure, so that

the force of the water flowing out of the hose does not dislodge it.

Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,

paper clips) do not find their way into the washer-dryer 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.

If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the washer-dryer

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. A special

descaling agent is available to order from Miele. Follow the

instructions for use on the packaging carefully.

Warning and Safety instructions

To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be dried in this

washer-dryer:

– items which have not been washed.

– items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly

cleaned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other

deposits (such as cosmetics, lotions etc).

If items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that

these might self-ignite when heated, even after they have been

removed from the washer-dryer at the end of the programme.

– items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with

inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of

acetone, alcohol, benzine, petrol, stain remover, turpentine, wax

and wax remover or other chemicals.

– items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail

varnish remover or similar substances.

When washing such heavily soiled items, ensure that you use

sufficient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt,

wash the items several times.

To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be tumble dried:

– items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g.

professional dry-cleaning agents).

– fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or

rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex

foam rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles

and items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.

– damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,

jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of

igniting in the washer-dryer.

Warning and Safety instructions

In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling

down phase to ensure that the items are not too hot to handle when

you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry

self-igniting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down

phase has been completed.

As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the

drum.

Warning: Do not switch the washer-dryer off before the drying

programme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung

up or spread out to cool it down.

Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according

to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.

Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for

use in a domestic washer-dryer. Always observe the manufacturer's

instructions carefully.

Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds which

can cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use these products in

this washer-dryer.

Make sure that any dispensing balls etc. are removed from

laundry before the drying programme. These dispensers can melt

during the drying programme and cause damage to the

washer-dryer and the laundry. Do not use liquid dispenser balls or

similar if you are planning to wash and then dry in one continuous

sequence.

Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning

agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being

washed in the washer-dryer.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing

benzine, in this washer-dryer, as this may result in damage to

component parts and create toxic fumes. Such agents also pose a

fire and explosion hazard.

Caution, the metal cap is hot after drying. Open the door wide

after the drying cycle. Do not touch the metal cap located on the

inside of the door glass. It will still be hot and could cause a burn.

Accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by

Miele. Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers

will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by

non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

detergents on silk, as the enzymes may

damage the silk. Instructions for use

and recommended dosage amounts

are given on the detergent packaging.

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.

Liquid detergent should be dispensed

using a ball provided by the

manufacturer for programmes without a

pre-wash.

Use the same quantity of detergent as

for soft water.

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.

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:

DRYING

Separate drying

– Starched laundry can be dried in the

tumble dryer. To achieve the usual

finish, double the amount of starch

should be used.

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.

– 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.

Tips on drying

Do not put soaking wet items into

the machine to dry them; Spin them

thoroughly after washing using the

appropriate spin speed.

ASort the laundry

^ Sort the laundry according to

type of fibre / weave and the residual

moisture content. This will help

achieve an even drying result.

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.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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

washer-dryer has been designed to

comply with DIN regulations.

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.

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.

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.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Installation and connection

Connection to the drainage

system

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.

* For a delivery head of more than 1 m

(up to a max. 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.

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink or basin:

Please note:

– Hook the hose over the edge and

secure.

– Make sure that the water can drain

away freely without hindrance.
