Warning and Safety Instructions  
The best materials are used in the  
manufacture of this machine, and  
Before using the machine for the  
first time, check that the transit fit-  
every care is taken to check all parts.  
However, with time, deterioration of  
parts can occur, especially with such  
components as hoses, giving rise to  
leaks. This should be borne in mind if  
operating the machine without supervi-  
sion. Check the hose regularly for signs  
of wear, and change in good time, to  
avoid leaks and subsequent damage.  
ting at the rear of the machine has  
been removed (see section on “Installa-  
tion”). During spinning, a transit fitting  
which is still in place may result in dam-  
age to both the machine and adjacent  
furniture or appliances.  
Turn off the stopcock if the ma-  
chine will be left for any length of  
time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is  
no floor drain (gully) in the immediate vi-  
cinity.  
Faulty components must only be  
exchanged for Miele original spare  
parts. Only when these parts are fitted  
can the safety standards of the ma-  
chine be guaranteed.  
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.  
Use  
Make sure the drain hose is secure, so  
that the force of the water flowing out of  
the hose does not dislodge it. Other-  
wise this will result in flooding.  
Do not install your washing ma-  
chine in rooms where tempera-  
tures below freezing may occur.  
Frozen hoses may burst under press-  
ure. The reliability of the electronic con-  
trol system may be impaired at tem-  
peratures below freezing point.  
Take care to ensure that foreign ob-  
jects (e.g. nails, needles, coins,  
paper clips, etc.) do not find their way  
into the machine with the washing (e.g.  
in pockets). Foreign objects can dam-  
age components of the machine, which  
in turn can result in damage to the  
washing.  
In countries where there are areas  
which may be subject to infesta-  
tion by cockroaches or other vermin,  
pay particular attention to keeping the  
appliance and its surroundings in a  
clean condition at all times. Any dam-  
age which may be caused by cock-  
roaches or other vermin will not be  
covered by the appliance guarantee.

Washing environmentally and economically  
Washing environmentally and economically  
Caring for the environment means sav-  
ing water, energy and detergent when  
washing but without compromising on  
results.  
Economy tips  
To help you wash most economically,  
remember the following tips:  
– The automatic load control facility  
allows you to wash individual loads  
of between 1 and 5 kg. Ideally wash  
with the maximum load specified for  
each programme. This uses the en-  
ergy to the best advantage.  
The key to a good wash result is finding  
the best combination of amount of  
detergent, temperature, length of pro-  
gramme and the machine’s technology.  
If necessary, some programmes take  
longer to achieve this effect. With the  
"Hydromatic" system, the drum can re-  
volve at different speeds. Longer and  
slower action together with pauses for  
steeping, work towards a good result.  
– Only use the correct amount of deter-  
gent required for the water hardness  
level in your area, according to the  
detergent manufacturer’s recommen-  
dations.  
The automatic load control facility en-  
sures the correct water level for the  
type of fabric and laundry load being  
washed. Sometimes it even appears  
that there is no water in the drum.  
– If washing is not heavily stained, se-  
lect a lower temperature setting than  
indicated on the wash care label but  
do not additionally select "Short".  
– Use the "Short wash" option for wash-  
ing that is only very lightly soiled, but  
do not additionally reduce the tem-  
perature.  
Normally, main wash is sufficient for a  
clean result, so a pre-wash is not auto-  
matically included in the programmes.  
If it is wanted, a simple press on the  
pre-wash selector includes it.  
– Using the additional "Soak" option  
allows you to reduce the tempera-  
ture used in the main wash.

The amount of detergent will depend  
on various factors including the  
water hardness level in your area.  
The dial located in the detergent dis-  
penser box can be turned to the rele-  
vant setting as a water hardness re-  
minder, (using 1 = soft, 4 = very  
hard).  
Do not load the machine.

the dispenser drawer.  
If you do not know how hard the water  
is in your catchment area, please con-  
tact your local water authority.

Brief guide to correct washing  
Brief guide to correct washing  
The headings numbered (1,2,3,...)  
eral times before being included in a  
mixed load.  
offer a brief step by step guide to the  
operating sequence.  
Delicate textiles should be washed sep-  
arately in a delicates programme.  
Before washing  
1 Prepare the wash load  
Only wash textiles made from wool or  
wool mixtures if the textile care label  
states that they are suitable for ma-  
chine washing.  
Pre-treating the washing  
Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and  
cuffs, and water soluble stains can be  
pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter-  
gent or detergent mixed into a solution  
or paste.  
With particularly stubborn stains ask  
your Dry Cleaner for advice.  
Do not use solvent based cleaning  
agents in this machine.  
2 Open the door by pressing the door  
button  
Empty all pockets.  
Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,  
paper clips etc) can cause damage  
to textiles and components in the  
machine.  
Sort the washing  
Most textiles have a care label in the  
collar or side seam. Sort the washing  
by care label symbols. (See Symbols  
chart). Only wash items in this machine  
which are declared by the manufac-  
turer as being machine washable on  
the textile care label.  
Dark textiles often contain excess dye  
and should be washed separately sev-

3Load the drum  
4 Close the drum door.  
Make sure no items of washing are  
caught between the drum door and  
the door seal.  
Unfold washing and load loosely in the  
drum. To achieve best results it is advis-  
able to make up mixed loads consist-  
ing of both large and small items.  
This improves the washing effect and  
helps distribute the load evenly during  
spin.  
5Turn on the stopcock  
(if it is not already on)  
6 Add detergent.  
Overloading reduces the wash result  
and causes more creasing.  
See Section on Detergent for details.

Adding detergent  
Adding detergent  
All modern detergents produced for  
...too much results in the following:  
automatic washing machines are suit-  
able, including liquid, compact (con-  
centrated) and special application  
detergents. Use dispensing aids, e.g.  
balls, if these are supplied with the  
detergent. Woollens and knitwear con-  
taining wool mixtures should be  
washed using a detergent specifically  
designed for washing woollens.  
Amounts of detergent are recom-  
mended on the packaging. The right  
amount to dispense will depend on the  
following:  
– Excessive foam.  
– Low level of agitation.  
– Poor washing and rinsing results.  
Water is taken in through compartment  
i in the pre-wash.  
Water is taken in through compartment  
j in the main wash. If the capacity of  
compartment j is insufficient for the  
amount of detergent needed (e.g. in  
very hard water areas), the Customer

2) Increasing the water level:  
The water level can be increased from a low level to a higher level by pressing the “Water plus” button.  
3) Top-up rinse:  
Additional water flows into the drum, and the suds are cooled slightly. Hot water might damage plastic  
drain pipes.  
Graduated rinsing:  
The suds are cooled at the end of the wash cycle by water flowing in and being pumped away at inter-  
vals. This minimises the danger of creasing, by avoiding sudden temperature changes.  
WOOLLENS:  
Wool is susceptible to damage from movement when it is wet. Drum movement times during the pro-  
gramme are shorter, and the drum rotates more slowly.

The following options are additionally  
available for certain wash programmes:  
pressed in to give an additional option.  
“Soak”  
– For heavily soiled and stained items  
with dried on stains, or ones which  
can be bleached out, (e.g. blood,  
fats and oils, cocoa).  
– Soak duration: 2 hours.  
When the “Door” button is pushed in,  
all the other buttons spring out again,  
and the additional options are can-  
celled.  
Amount of detergent for "Soak"  
The amount of detergent recom-  
mended by the detergent manufac-  
turers should be distributed according  
to to the wash programme which is to  
be run after the “Soak” process.  
Programmes without pre-wash:  
Add the total amount of detergent to  
compartment j or directly into the  
drum on top of the laundry.  
Programmes with pre-wash:  
1/4 of the detergent should be added  
to compartment i for the soak and  
pre-wash, and 3/4 added to compart-  
ment j for the main wash.

Additional options  
“With pre-wash”  
Spin  
– For heavily soiled and stained items.  
The final spin speed is selected by turn-  
ing the spin speed selector to the set-  
ting required, but also depends on the  
basic wash programme chosen.  
“Water plus”  
– This is recommended for particularly  
delicate fabrics, and  
“Without final spin”  
– if more water is required for dispens-  
ing the detergent.  
Interim rinse and spin is carried out in  
the relevant programmes.  
– the water level increases in all sec-  
tions of the programmes COTTONS,  
MINIMUM IRON and QUICK WASH  
40°C.  
Washing is not spun after the final  
rinse, but the water is drained away,  
and the machine goes straight into the  
anti-crease stage.  
“Short wash”  
“Rinse hold”  
– The length of the main wash is short-  
ened for lightly soiled items. An addi-  
tional reduction in temperature is not  
recommended as this may lead to  
poorer wash results.  
Interim rinse and spin is carried out in  
the relevant programmes.  
At the end of the final rinse the washing  
remains suspended in water.  
This helps to reduce the possibility of  
creasing, if the washing is left for some  
time before being taken out of the ma-  
chine.  
– In the COTTONS and MINIMUM  
IRON programmes only two rinse  
cycles are carried out at high water  
level.  
To continue the programme:  
Turn the spin speed selector to the re-  
quired setting.  
The maximum spin speed is automati-  
cally limited according to the basic  
wash programme chosen.

Cleaning and care  
Cleaning the fluff filter and  
pump  
Check the fluff filter initially after 3 - 4  
washes to ascertain how often it is  
likely to require cleaning.  
With normal cleaning approx. 2 litres of  
water run out.  
If the drain outlet is clogged, more  
water will be retained in the machine  
(up to 25 litres).  
Caution: if laundry has been  
washed at a high temperature,  
water draining out of the machine  
will still be hot!  
Open the flap  
Place a dish under the drain fixture.  
Take the (yellow) filter flap opener from  
behind the detergent drawer facia  
panel, (see illustration above).  
Turn the fluff filter lid round 2 - 3  
times. Do not take it right out.  
With large volumes of water when the  
dish is full, screw the fluff filter back  
into position and empty the dish before  
repeating the procedure.

Cleaning and care  
Inspect the inlet hose which is sub-  
jected to high pressure while the ma-  
chine is in operation. The hose should  
be replaced if there are small cracks in  
the surface, or if it has been otherwise  
damaged.  
To clean the water inlet filters  
The washing machine has two filters to  
protect the inlet valves. These filters  
should be checked every 6 months or  
so, or more often if there are frequent in-  
terruptions to the water supply.  
If replacing the inlet hose only use a  
hose able to withstand pressure up to  
70 bar. Miele’s own hoses meet this re-  
quirement.  
To clean the filter in the union in the  
open end of the inlet hose:  
First turn off the stopcock.  
To clean the filter in the water inlet  
valve:  
Unscrew the threaded union con-  
necting the free end of the inlet hose  
to the stopcock.  
Remove the rubber seal from the re-  
cess.  
Using pliers, carefully loosen the  
ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve,  
and unscrew.  
Use water pump pliers to withdraw  
the plastic filter by the bar (see illus-  
tration). Clean, put back and secure.  
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the  
plastic filter bar, remove the filter and  
clean.  
Put the filter and seal back in the  
reverse order and reconnect the  
hose. Turn on the stopcock and  
check the connection is watertight.  
The two filters must be put back in  
place after cleaning.

Installation  
Installation  
Installation surface  
Ensure that the machine feet and the  
floor are dry to prevent the machine  
from slipping during the spin cycle.  
Experience has shown that a concrete  
floor is the most suitable installation sur-  
face for a washing machine. Concrete  
floors are far less prone to vibration dur-  
ing the spin cycle than wooden floor-  
boards or a surface with "soft" proper-  
ties.  
Removing the transit fitting  
Please note the following points:  
The machine must be level and se-  
curely positioned.  
To avoid vibrations during spinning,  
the machine should not be installed  
on soft floor coverings.  
If installation must be on a wooden  
joist floor, we recommend the use of  
a plywood base at least 30 mm thick  
and 59 x 52 cm wide. Ideally, the  
base should be large enough to  
span several joists and should be  
bolted to the joists and not only to  
the floorboards. Check for the

presence of pipes and cables first.  
The most stable part of a floor is  
usually in the corner.  
If the machine is installed on a  
raised plinth, it must be secured  
against slippage during spin using  
retaining clips (available from the  
Miele Spare Parts Dept).  
Installation  
Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°.  
Lift the machine from its packaging  
base and move it to its site. Please

Connection to water supply  
If replacing the inlet hose only use a  
hose able to withstand pressure of up  
to 70 bar. This also applies to all fittings  
used. Miele original parts fulfil this con-  
dition.  
The machine should be connected to a  
mains water supply in accordance with  
standard regulations. The German auth-  
orities do not require it to have a non-re-  
turn valve as the washing machine has  
been designed to comply with DVGW  
regulations (German Association of  
Gas and Water Engineers, see data  
plate).  
Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are  
available as optional extras.  
The pressure hose and solenoid inlet  
valve are designed for a water flow  
pressure of between 1 and 10 bar. At  
higher water pressures it is essential to  
fit a reducer valve.  
Connection to a mains water supply  
should be carried out by a qualified  
plumber and should incorporate a  
mains stopcock with 3/4" thread.  
There is a minimum flow pressure of 1  
bar pressure if 5 litres of water flow into  
a suitable container in 15 seconds.  
The 1.5 m long 3/8" pressure hose  
should be connected to the stopcock  
via the 3/4" threaded union.  
The two dirt filters, one in the open  
end of the inlet hose, one at the inlet  
point in the solenoid valve must not  
be removed.  
This hose is not suitable for use for con-  
nection to a hot water supply. Please  
make sure that the washer sits correctly  
in the union.  
If connection is to be made to a stop-  
cock with a short 3/4" thread, the extra  
washers enclosed should also be in-  
serted in the inlet hose union to com-  
pensate.  
The connection points are subject to  
mains water pressure. Turn on the stop-  
cock slowly and check for leaks. Cor-  
rect the positioning of the washers and  
screw unions if appropriate.

Connection to the drainage system  
Drain hose connection:  
The machine drains via a drain pump  
with a delivery head of 1 metre.  
Direct into a sink: Hook the hose  
over the edge and secure. Make  
sure that the water can flow freely to  
avoid flooding and to prevent water  
from being sucked back into the ma-  
chine.  
The drain hose is 1.5 m long. It 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.  
Connected to a standpipe.  
Connected to a plastic drain pipe  
with a rubber nipple. There is no  
need to use a non-return valve.  
Allow the water to drain off into a  
floor drain.  
If required, the hose can be extended  
to a length of 5 m. The necessary parts  
can be purchased from the Miele  
Spare Parts department.  
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
