The Miele "Waterproof system"protects from water damage

provided the following conditions havebeen met:

– the machine is correctly plumbed inand connected to the electricitysupply.

– if a fault has been identified, themachine must be examined by acompetent person before further use,and repaired if necessary.

Faulty components must only beexchanged for Miele original spare

parts. Only when these parts are fittedcan the safety standards of themachine be guaranteed.

If the connection cable is faulty itmust only be replaced by a Miele

approved service technician to protectthe user from danger.

In countries where there are areaswhich may be subject to infestation

by cockroaches or other vermin, payparticular attention to keeping theappliance and its surroundings in aclean condition at all times. Anydamage which may be caused bycockroaches or other vermin will not becovered by the appliance guarantee.

UseThis equipment is not designed formaritime use or for use in mobile

installations such as caravans, aircraftetc. However it may be suitable forsuch usage subject to a riskassessment of the installation beingcarried out by a suitably qualifiedengineer.

Take care, the metal cap is hotafter drying. Open the door wide

after the drying cycle. Do not touch themetal cap located on the inside of thedoor glass. It will still be hot and couldcause a burn.

Do not install your machine inrooms where temperatures below

freezing may occur. Frozen hoses mayburst under pressure.The reliability ofthe electronic control unit may beimpaired at temperatures belowfreezing point.

Before using the machine for thefirst time, check that the transit

fitting at the rear of the machine hasbeen removed (see section on"Installation"). During spinning, a transitfitting which is still in place may result indamage to both the machine andadjacent furniture or appliances.

Turn off the stopcock if the machineis to be left for any length of time

(e.g. holiday), especially if there is nofloor drain (gully) in the immediate vicinity.

Flooding danger. If hooking the drainhose into a wash basin, check that

the water can drain off quickly enough toprevent the sink from overflowing. Makesure the drain hose is secure, so that theforce of the water flowing out of the hosedoes not dislodge it.

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

paper clips) do not find their way intothe machine with the laundry. Thesemay damage components of themachine (e.g. suds container, drum),which in turn can result in damage tothe laundry.

For machines with a 'porthole'door, remember that the porthole

glass will be hot when washing at veryhigh temperatures.Do not let children touch it during a hotwash programme.

If the correct amount of detergentis dispensed, the machine should

not need to be descaled. If, however,you do wish to descale the machineonly use proprietary non-corrosivedescaling agents and strictly observethe instructions on the packaging. If indoubt contact the Miele Customer Ser-vice Dept. or your Miele Dealer.

Never use solvent based cleaningagents in this machine, as this may

result in damage to component partsand create toxic fumes. Suchdetergents also pose a fire andexplosion hazard.

Textiles which have beenpre-treated in solvent based

cleaning agents must be thoroughlyrinsed in clean water before beingwashed in the machine.

Only use dyes specified by themanufacturer as being suitable for

use in a domestic washing machine.Always observe the manufacturer'sinstructions carefully.

Colour run and dye removerscontain sulphur compounds which

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

Always make sure the drum isstationary before reaching in to

remove laundry. Reaching into amoving drum is extremely dangerous.

– Ideally load the maximum amountspecified for the programme you areusing.This way energy and waterconsumption will be kept to aminimum.

– Use the QUICK WASH programmefor small loads.

– Use the Short wash option for lightlysoiled laundry.

– A main wash (programme withoutpre-wash) is sufficient for cleaningnormally soiled laundry.

– Use the Soak option for heavilysoiled laundry. The washtemperature can be reduced for themain wash when using the additonalsoak option.

– Use the additional option Soakinstead of Pre-wash with heavilysoiled laundry. If Soak is followed im-mediately by a main wash the samesuds are used.

– Do not exceed the amounts ofdetergent which may berecommended by the manufactureron the packaging.

– Reduce the amount of detergent withsmaller loads (approx. 1/3 less thanthe amount recommended can beused when washing a half load).

– Load recognition can cause theduration of a programme to varygreatly. The main wash may beshortened and a rinse cycle omitteddepending on the amount of laundry.

– Select a high spin speed for thewash programme, as well as for theThermospin, if tumble drying thelaundry afterwards. This saves timeand energy.

Separate washing

Make sure that the DRYINGprogramme selector is at theFinishposition. Otherwise the dryingprogramme set will follow on fromthe washing programme.

Before washingA Sort the laundry

^ Empty all pockets.

,Foreign objects (e.g. nails,coins, paper clips, etc.) can causedamage to garments andcomponents in the machine.

^ Stains etc. should be removed assoon as possible whilst still fresh.Spillages should be carefully dabbedoff using a soft, colourfast cloth. Donot rub!

Badly soiled areas can be pre-treatedwith liquid detergent, stain removersetc. first, following the manufacturer'sinstructions. With particularly stubbornstains ask your dry cleaner for advice.

,Do not use solvent-basedcleaning agents in this machine.

^ Sort the laundry by colour and bycare label symbol. Most garmentshave a textile care label in the collaror side seam. See the "Programmeoverview chart" for information onwhich programmes to use fordifferent fabric types.

Dark textiles often contain excess dyeand should be washed separatelyseveral times before being included ina mixed load.

– Curtains: Remove lead weights andstrips or place in a laundry bag.

– Bras: Ensure any underwiring issecurely sewn in. If not, remove it.

– Knitted garments, trousers andjeans, T-shirts and sweat shirts: Turninside out, if recommended by themanufacturer.

– Close any zips, fasten hooks andeyes etc before washing.

– Fasten duvet covers etc. to preventsmall items from being rolled upinside them.

Do not wash any items in this machinewhich are specified by themanufacturer as non-machinewashable on the care label (hsymbol).


19

B Switch the machine on

^ Press in the I-ON/0-OFF button.

C Open the drum door

^ Press the Door button and open thedrum door.

D Load the drum

^ Unfold the laundry and load looselyin the drum. To achieve best resultsmake up mixed loads consisting ofboth large and small items.

Do not exceed the maximum load forthe programme selected. This uses theenergy and water to the bestadvantage. Exceeding the maximumload will result in poorer wash resultsand an increased level of creasing.

E Close the drum door

Make sure that no garments are caughtbetween the drum door and seal.

F Open the stopcock

Select a programmeG Select the wash programme.

^ Turn the programme selector to therequired programme.

H Select a spin speed.

^ Press the "Spin" button repeatedlyuntil the indicator lamp for the spinspeed you want comes on.

In some programmes, the maximumspin speed is limited. The machine willnot allow a higher spin speed to beselected.


20

Selecting additional options for thewash programme

I Select additional option(s)

^ Press the required addtional optionbutton(s).

Additional options which are notcompatible with the basic programmecannot be selected. The indicator lampwill go out when the option button isreleased.

Soak

For heavily soiled and stained itemswith dried-on stains, or ones whichcan be bleached out, (e.g. blood,fats and oils, cocoa).

Duration of soak:2 hours.

Detergent dispensing when selectingthe soak option:

The amount to dispense will depend onwhich programme is to follow on fromthe soak process.

For programmes without a pre-wash:

– Add the total amount to compartmentj or directly into the drum on top ofthe laundry.

For programmes with a pre-wash:

– Add 1/4 of the detergent for the soakand pre-wash into compartment i,and 3/4 into compartment j for themain wash.

Pre-wash

For heavily soiled and stained items.

Water plus

The water level increases in allsections of the COTTONS / MINIMUMIRON and QUICK WASH 40°Cprogrammes.

– for particularly delicate fabrics.– if more water is required for

dispensing the detergent.– where a higher quality rinse is

required.

Short

For lightly soiled items.

This shortens the programme runningtime. In the COTTONS and MINIMUMIRON programmes only two rinses arecarried out with a higher water level.


21

J Adding detergent

It is important to dispense the correctamount, because... . .

. . . too little detergent results in:

– Laundry not being cleaned properlyand with time it may become greyand hard to the touch.

– Greasy particles clinging to thelaundry.

– Limescale deposits on the heaterelements.

. . . too much detergent results in:

– Excessive foam, which causes a lowlevel of agitation and poor wash,rinse and spin results.

– Higher water consumption becausean extra rinse is automaticallyactivated.

– A burden to the environment.

Add detergent for the pre-wash tocompartment i and to compartmentj for the main wash. If the capacity ofcompartment j is not sufficient (e.g.in water hardness area III), some of themain wash detergent can be added tocompartment i.

^ Pull out the detergent drawer andplace detergent in the compartmentsas follows:

i = Pre-wash(if selected, 1/4 of the totalamount recommended for theprogramme)

j = Main washincluding the Soak periodif selected

p = Fabric conditioner orliquid starch.

See "Detergent" section for furtherinformation.

DetergentAll modern detergents produced forautomatic washing machines aresuitable, including liquid, compact(concentrated), tablets and specialapplication detergents.

Woollens and knitwear containing woolmixtures and hand-washable garmentsshould be washed using a detergentspecifically designed for washingwoollens.

Instructions for use and recommendedamounts for a full load are given on thedetergent packaging.

The right amount to dispense willdepend on the following:

– The soiling level of the laundry.

Lightly soiledNo visible dirt or stains. Possiblyslight body odour.

Normally soiledVisibly dirty and/or just a few slightstains.

Heavily soiledStains and soiling clearly visible.

– The quantity of laundry

– The water hardness level in the areaIf you do not know the hardness levelcontact your local water authoritywho will be able to advise you.

Fabric conditioners, texturisersand starchFabric conditioners make garments softand fluffy to handle and help preventstatic cling when tumble drying.

Texturisers are synthetic starchformulations, which stiffen items oflaundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bedlinen.

Starch stiffens and gives body to itemsof laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths andbed linen.

^ Dispense according to the amountspecified on the packaging.

Automatic dispensing of fabricconditioners, texturisers or liquidstarch to laundry at the end of aprogramme

^ Open the lid to compartment p andadd conditioner, texturiser or starch.Do not exceed the maximum levelmark.

^ Close the lid and push the dispenserdrawer back in.

The conditioner or liquid starch isautomatically dispensed in the lastrinse. At the end of the programme asmall amount of water remains incompartment p.

If starching frequently, clean thedispenser compartment andespecially the siphon tube andconditioner channel. See "Cleaningthe detergent dispenser drawer".

Tips on drying^ Before drying check the drying

symbol on the wash care label.

q Dry at normal temperature

r Dry at low temperature(select the Drying/low tempadditional option)

s Do not tumble dry

If there is no symbol, dry at your ownrisk applying the following principles:

– Cottons and minimum iron itemsshould be dried using theappropriate programme.

– Delicate fabrics, e.g. acrylics, shouldbe dried at a low temperature (selectthe Drying/low temp additionaloption).

The following fabrics should not betumble dried:

– Woollens and wool blendsthese fabrics tend to become mattedand shrink.

– Items filled with downthe fine fabric interior tends to shrink,depending on the quality involved.

– Pure linenshould only be machine dried ifspecified as suitable by themanufacturer on the wash care label,as the surface of the fabric mayotherwise tend to roughen.

Woven and loopknit materials (e.g.T-Shirts, knitted garments) tend toshrink to varying extents depending ontheir quality. Therefore: to preventfurther shrinkage do not over-dry thesetextiles. When purchasing thesegarments it is advisable to take theirshrinkage properties into account.

Starched laundry can be dried in thetumble dryer. To achieve the usualfinish, double the amount of starchshould be used.

Fabrics which crease easily should onlybe given a short period in the dryer.

Minimum iron shirts in 100% cotton maycrease during tumble drying dependingon the quality of the weave. Use a shortprogramme with a low setting. Inextreme cases do not tumble dry thesegarments, but dry them on a hanger.

Minimum iron fabrics tend to creasemore, the greater the load. This isparticulary the case with delicatefabrics. Reduce the load.

New dark coloured garments shouldbe dried separately from light colouredgarments to avoid the danger ofcolours running.

There is an excessivebuild-up of foam.

Too much detergentwas used.

– Follow the manufacturer'sinstructions on dosagegiven on the packaging.

– Take the water hardnesslevel into account.

– Use less detergent forlightly soiled or small loads.

White residues whichlook like powderdetergent are seen ondark textiles afterwashing.

The detergentcontained compounds(zeolites) to aid watersoftening where are notsoluble in water. Theyhave ended up on thetextiles.

– Try and brush out theresidues after drying usinga soft brush.

– Wash dark textiles using adetergent which containsno zeolites. Liquiddetergents usually containno zeolites.

Grey, greasy particlescling to washedlaundry.

Insufficient amounts ofdetergent have beenused to break down theparticles of grease inheavily soiled laundry.

– Use more detergent.– Before washing the next

load run a COTTONS 95°Cprogramme with powderdetergent but without aload.


51


Liquid detergent doesnot give the requiredresult.

Liquid detergents usuallycontain no bleachingagents. They do notremove fruit, coffee andtea stains.

– Use a general purposedetergent containing ableaching agent.

– Pour stain removers intocompartment j andliquid detergent into adispensing ball(Remember to removethe dispensing ballbefore drying!).

– Never put stainremovers and liquiddetergent together in thedispenser drawer.

Limescale depositsappear on the drumsurface.

Installation and connection

56

Installation surfaceA concrete floor is the most suitableinstallation surface. It is far less proneto vibration during the spin cycle thanwooden floorboards or a carpetedsurface.

Please note the following:

^ The machine must be level andsecurely positioned.

^ To avoid vibrations during spinningthe machine should not be installedon soft floor coverings.

If installing on a wooden joist floor:

^ We recommend the use of a plywoodbase at least 59x52x3 cm. The baseshould span several joists and bebolted to the joists and not only to thefloorboards. Check for pipes andcables beforehand!

The most stable part of the floor isusually in the corner.

,If the machine is installed on araised plinth, it has to be securedagainst slippage during spin usingretaining clips (available from theMiele Spare Parts Dept). Otherwisethere is the danger of the machinemoving about.

InstallationLift the machine from its packagingbase and move it to its site. Please notethe following:

^ Do not lift the machine by the drumdoor.

,Ensure that the machine feet andthe floor area are dry to prevent themachine from slipping during thespin cycle.

Removing the transit fitting

A Turn the left-hand transit bar 90°.

B Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°.

C Withdraw the two bars together withthe support plate.

D Plug the holes with the plastic capssupplied.

The machine must not be movedwithout the transit fitting in place.Store the transit fitting in a safeplace for future use. It must bere-fitted if the machine is to bemoved again (e.g. when movinghouse).

Re-fitting is carried out by reversing theprocedure.


58

Levelling the machineThe machine must stand perfectly levelon all four feet to ensure safe andproper operation.

Incorrect installation may increaseelectricity and water consumption andmay cause the machine to move about.

The four adjustable feet are used tolevel the machine. All four feet arescrewed in when the machine isdelivered.

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

^ Gently tip the machine and prop it upusing a solid wooden wedge forexample, to ensure stability.

,Make sure the machine does notslip as this could cause injury.

^ Loosen counternut 2 with ascrewdriver by turning itanti-clockwise, then unscrew foot 1together with the counternut.

^ Put the machine back on all four feet.

^ Use a spirit level to check themachine is standing level.

^ Hold the foot 1 firm using a pipewrench and using a screwdriver turnthe counternut 2 to the right firmly upagainst the housing.

,All four counternuts must befirmly up against the housing. Pleasealso check this for the feet which didnot need adjustment. Otherwisethere is the danger of the machinemoving about.

The Miele Waterproof systemThe Miele Waterproof system protectsthe washing machine from waterdamage.

The system consists of three maincomponents:

1) the inlet hose

2) the electronic unit and the washingmachine housing

3) the drain hose

1) Inlet hose

– The inlet hose is fitted with anadditional electrical safety valvewhich works like an automaticstopcock and is housed in the inlethose connection box.

– It is pressure proof to between 70and 100 bar.

– The inlet hose has a protectivesleeve.

Any leaking water from the inlet hoseis fed into the sump through thisprotective sleeve. A float switches offthe safety valve, preventing any morewater from flowing into the machineand water in the suds container ispumped away.

2) Electronic unit and washingmachine housing

– Sump

Any leaking water is collected in asump in the base of the appliance. Afloat switches off the safety valves,preventing any more water fromflowing into the machine and water inthe suds container is pumped away.

– Overflow protection

This prevents the washing machinetaking in too much water. If the waterlevel exceeds a certain level, thedrain pump switches in and pumpsthe excess water away.

3) Drain hose

The drain hose is protected by aventilation system which prevents thewashing machine from beingemptied completely.


61

Connection to the water supply

Installation

For the Miele Waterproof system tofunction correctly, it may only be fittedin the positions shown in theillustrations above.

The machine should be connected to amains water supply in accordance withlocal and national safety regulations.The German authorities do not require itto have a non-return valve as thewasher-dryer has been designed tocomply with DIN regulations.

The machine is designed to operatewith a flow pressure of between 1 and10 bar. If it is higher than 10 bar it isessential to fit a reducer valve.

Connection to the mains water supplyshould incorporate a mains stopcockwith 3/4" thread. The stopcock shouldbe fitted by a qualified plumber.

,The connection point is subjectto mains water pressure. Turn on thestopcock slowly and check for leaks.Correct the position of the washerand union if appropriate.

The appliance is not suitable forconnection to a hot water supplyand connection to a householdwater softener is not recommended.


62

The plastic casing of the safety valve contains electrical components. TheWaterproof system must only be connected to its own stopcock. It must not beconnected to mixer taps or similar and must not be fitted in areas where thereis the risk of water or other liquids reaching it.

Do not get wet.

The protective sleeve of the hosemust not be damaged or kinked.


63

Maintenance and care

If you intend to unscrew the MieleWaterproof system hose from thestopcock it is essential to disconnectthe machine from the electricity supplyfirst.

Only use a Miele Waterproof systemhose should you need a replacement.

In order to protect the water inletvalves, the dirt filter in the water inletsafety valve connection must not beremoved.

Extension hose

A 4.5 m Miele Waterproof systemextension hose is available from yourMiele Dealer or the Miele Spare PartsDepartment as an optional extra.


64

Connection to the drainagesystemThe machine drains via a drain pumpwith a delivery head of 1 metre.The drain hose is 1.5 m long. It mustnot be kinked as this restricts drainage.The swivel elbow at the end of the hosecan be turned in either direction, or canbe detached if required, with a sharptwist and pull.

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink.

Please note the following

– Hook the hose over the edge andsecure.

– Make sure that the water can drainaway freely without hindrance.Otherwise there is a risk of wateroverflowing or of some of the drainedwater being sucked back into themachine.

2. Connected securely to a plastic drainpipe with a rubber nipple. There is noneed to use a non-return valve.

3. Connected securely to a standpipe.

4. Connected securely to a floor gully.

If required the drain hose can beextended to a length of 5 metres. Theaccessories required can bepurchased from the Miele Spare PartsDept.

For draining the water away with adelivery head over 1 metre (and up to amax. of 1.8 metres) a 2nd "Duo-drainpump" is available together with thecorresponding kit from your MieleDealer or the Miele Spare Parts Dept.


65
