Correct use
~ Do not install your washing machine 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 washing machine for the first time, check that the transit bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see section on "Installation and connection"). During spinning, a transit bar which is still in place may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
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 the drain hose is secure, so that the force of the water flowing out of the hose does not dislodge it. objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do not find their way into the machine 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. dispensed, the machine 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.

How to wash correctly

Brief instructions
The headings numbered A, B, C,. show the operating sequence and can be used as brief instructions. A Sort the laundry
,If you use a solvent-based clean-
ing agent (e.g. one containing benzene) to pre-treat a stain, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) are protected, and that the cleaning agent is rinsed off before washing the garment in the machine.
,Do not use solvent-based
cleaning agents in this machine.
^ Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam. 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. 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. Close any zips, fasten hooks and eyes etc before washing. Fasten duvet covers etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them. Do not wash any items in this machine which are specified by the manufacturer as not washable on the care label. (h symbol)

^ Empty all pockets.

,Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause damage to garments and components in the machine.
^ 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.
B Switch on the washing machine C Load the drum ^ Press the Door button to open the drum door. ^ Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum. Mixing both large and small items gives better wash results and also helps distribute the load evenly during spinning. The most efficient use of energy and water is achieved when a full load is washed. However, do not overload as this causes creases and reduces cleaning efficiency. Make sure that no items are caught between the drum door and seal. D Select a programme
^ Turn the programme selector clockwise or anti-clockwise to the required programme. The programme indicator light for the programme selected will come on. E Select a temperature / spin speed The suggested temperature and/or spin speed can be changed.

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface for a washing machine, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface. Please note: ^ The machine must be level and securely positioned. ^ To avoid vibrations during spinning, the machine should not be installed on soft floor coverings. 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. Transporting the washing machine to its installation site 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.
,Ensure that the machine feet and
the floor are dry to prevent the machine from slipping during the spin cycle.
Removing the transit bars
,If the machine is installed on a raised plinth, it has to be secured against slippage during spin using retaining clips (available from the Miele Spare Parts Dept). Otherwise there is the danger of the machine moving about.
^ To remove the left and right covers 1. Pull on the attached stopper, 2. then use a screwdriver to release the catch at the top.
^ Using the spanner supplied, turn the left-hand transit bar 90, then
^ Turn the right-hand transit bar 90, then
^ withdraw the transit bar.
Installation and connection ,To avoid the risk of injury the holes for the transit bars must be covered after the transit bars have been removed.
^ Secure the transit bars to the back of the washing machine. Make sure that the top catch is located above the holder. ^ Plug the holes with the plastic caps as illustrated.

,The machine must not be moved
without the transit bars in place. Store them as shown or keep 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.

Levelling the machine

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. Screwing out and adjusting the feet The four adjustable screw feet are used to level the machine. All four feet are screwed in when the machine is delivered.
^ Use a spirit level to check the machine is standing level. ^ Hold foot 1 securely with a pipe wrench. Turn counternut 2 again using the spanner supplied until it sits firmly up against the housing.
,All four counternuts must be
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.
^ Using the spanner supplied turn counternut 2 in a clockwise direction. Then turn counternut 2 together with foot 1 to unscrew.
Washer and Dryer stack The fitting of building-under kits and stacking kits must only be undertaken by qualified and competent persons, in accordance with the instructions supplied with the kit. Building under a continuous worktop/in a kitchen run If you wish to push your machine under a worktop and there is space to do this without removing the lid, the conversion kit is not necessary. Otherwise the conversion kit is essential. A special building-under conversion kit* is required. To ensure electrical safety, the washing machine lid must be replaced by the cover plate supplied with the conversion kit. For installation under a work surface 900/910 mm from the floor, a raising kit* is required. Connections for electricity, water and drainage should be installed in such a way that they remain accessible when the machine is in place. Fitting instructions are supplied with the conversion kit. All parts marked* are available from your Dealer, the Miele Spare Parts Department or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com. a Safety distance to wall: at least 2 cm b Height: Stacking kit with pull-out shelf: approx. 169 cm Stacking kit without pull-out shelf: approx. 170 cm Replacing the lid If the lid has been removed in order to fit a stacking kit or cover plate, ensure that, if the lid is replaced, it fits securely into the rear holders. Otherwise, it is not properly secure for transport. A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked with the washing machine. A "WTV" stacking kit* is necessary. Please note:

The Miele water protection system
The Miele water protection system protects the washing machine from water damage. The system consists of three main components: 1) the inlet hose 2) the electronic unit and the washing machine housing 3) the drain hose 1) Inlet hose The inlet hose can withstand pressure of more than 7,000 kPa. 2) Electronic unit and washing 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. Overflow protection This prevents the washing machine taking in too much water. If the water level exceeds a certain level, the drain pump switches in and pumps the excess water away. 3) Drain hose The drain hose is protected by a ventilation system which prevents the washing machine from being emptied completely.
Connection to the water supply
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 washing machine 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 pressure reducing valve. Connection to the mains water supply should incorporate a mains stopcock with 3/4" thread. The stopcock should be fitted by a qualified plumber. In order to protect the water inlet valve, the two dirt filters - one in the open end of the inlet hose, one at the inlet point in the machine - must not be removed. Extension hose Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department as optional extras.
,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.
The washing 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 should you ever need a replacement or extension. These are tested to withstand pressure of at least 7,000 kPa.
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. 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. * For a delivery head of more than 1 m (up to a max. of 1.8 m) a replacement drain pump will need to be fitted. Please contact the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele Dealer. Drain hose connection: 1. Direct into a sink or basin: Please note the following: 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. 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.

Please note:

a Adapter b Nut c Hose clip d End of the hose ^ Fit adapter a to the sink drain outlet using nut b. ^ Attach the end of the hose d to adapter a. ^ Use a screwdriver to tighten hose clip c up close to the nut.
Electrical connection U.K.
All electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation work has been carried out. The appliance is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to a 230-240V mains supply. Please ensure the connection data quoted on the data plate match the household mains supply. Connection should be made via a suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation. For extra safety it is advisable to install a suitable residual current device (RCD). Contact a qualified electrician for advice. Do not connect via an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363 The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted). Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier.
