							Read the operating instructions
before using this machine for the
first time. They contain important
information about the safety, use and
maintenance of the machine. Doing
so will prevent injury and damage to
the dryer.
Save these instructions and pass
them on to any future user.
WARNING - To reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock or injury:
Technical Safety
Check the packaging, the washer
and accessories for any signs of
damage. Do not use a damaged
appliance.
Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (circuit protection,
voltage and frequency) match the
mains electrical supply. If in doubt
contact an electrician.
The appliance must be grounded.
It is imperative that this basic
safety requirement be met.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electrical supply with an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
The machine is built in accordance
with current safety requirements.
Incorrectly repaired machines may
pose a considerable risk to the user
which is not covered by the
manufacturer. Repairs should only be
performed by a Miele approved
technician.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or
repair work is being performed. The
machine is only completely isolated
from the electrical supply when it is
turned off at the main switch and the
plug is pulled or by tripping the circuit
breaker.
Connect the washer, to the water
mains. Do not use old hoses.
Inspect the intake hoses regularly for
damage. They should be replaced as
needed to prevent water damage.
Faulty components must only be
replaced with genuine Miele spare
parts to maintain safety standards.
If the power cord is damaged it
must only be replaced by a Miele
Service technician with a genuine Miele
power cord.

							Use
Only use the washing machine to
wash items which are specified by
the manufacturer to be machine
washable on the fabric care label. Any
other applications may cause
undesirable results. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for damage
caused by improper use of the
appliance.
This appliance is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
installation in these applications. Please
contact the Miele Technical Service
Department with specific requirements.
Do not install this machine in rooms
where temperatures below freezing
may occur. Frozen hoses may burst
under pressure. The reliability of the
electronic control unit may be impaired
at temperatures below freezing.
Do not wash articles that have
been previously cleaned, washed
soaked or spotted with gasoline,
organic substances dry-cleaning
solvents, or any other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
not add these items to the washload.
Before using the machine for the
first time, check that the shipping
struts at the rear of the machine have
been removed (see Installation). If the
shipping struts are still in place during
spinning, damage may result to both
the machine and adjacent furniture or
appliances.
Turn off the water supply if the
machine is to be left for any length
of time (e.g. vacation).
Overflow hazard!
Check that the drain can
accommodate the water flow before
operating the washer.
Make certain the drain hose is secured
in the drain, otherwise the force of the
expelled water could cause the drain
hose to come out of the drain.
Be sure that foreign objects (e.g.
nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do
not find their way into the machine.
These items may damage the
machine, which may also cause
damage to the laundry.

							If the correct amount of detergent
is dispensed, the machine should
not need to be descaled. If the washer
needs to be descaled, use a descaling
agent with corrosion protection. These
special descaling agents can be
purchased from the Miele Service
department. Use as directed.
Never use solvent based cleaning
agents in this machine, this may
result in damage and create toxic
fumes. They will present a fire and
explosion hazard.
Items which have been pre-treated
in solvent based cleaning agents
must be thoroughly rinsed in clean
water before being washed in the
machine.
Only use dyes specified by the
manufacturer as being suitable for
use in a washing machine. Use as
directed by the manufacturer.
Dye removers may contain sulphur
compounds which cause damage
such as corrosion. Do not use dye
removers in this machine.
The drum door glass will be hot
when washing at very high
temperatures. Do not touch the glass.
Danger of burns!
The stainless steel casing must not
come in contact with liquid
cleaning or disinfection agents
containing chlorine. They may cause
corrosion.  Do not store open
containers of this agent next to the
machine.
Children
Close supervision is necessary
when the appliance is used near
children. Do not allow children to play
on or in the appliance.
Using accessories
Accessories must only be installed
once approved by Miele. Installing
unapproved parts may void the

from curtains before washing.
–Loose underwires should be
removed or sewn in place before
washing.
–Woolens and knitted garments
should be turned inside out.

^Load the laundry loosely into the
drum.
For best results, wash mixed loads of
small and large items. This will improve
washing effectiveness and help
distribute the load evenly.
Note:Overloading the washer will
affect wash results and cause wrinkling.^Close the drum door.
To prevent damage to the door seal
and clothing, make sure that there is
nothing caught between the drum
door and the seal.
