WASHING
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.
,Do not use solvent-based
cleaning agents in this machine.

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

– 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.

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.

Installation and connection
Levelling the machine
,To avoid the risk of injury the
holes for the transit bars must be
covered after the transit bars have
been removed.
The machine must stand perfectly level
on all four feet to ensure safe and
proper operation.
Incorrect installation may increase
electricity and water consumption and
may cause the machine to move about.
False values may also show in the Load
and Detergent display.
^ Fit the covers on to the two holes.
Then plug the holes as shown with
the caps.
,The machine must not be moved
without the transit fittings in place.
Store 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.

– 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.

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.

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.
