Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

TwinDos
The washing machine has an integrated detergent dispensing unit.
The TwinDos system can be used in two ways:
1. with the Miele 2 Phase System or
2. with any other liquid detergent and/or fabric conditioner.
The Miele 2 Phase system
The Miele 2 Phase system uses a base detergent (UltraPhase 1) and a detergent enhancer (UltraPhase 2). In order to achieve optimum results, the agents are dispensed separately during the wash process. The 2 Phase system cleans both white and coloured textiles thoroughly. UltraPhase 1 and
UltraPhase 2 single use cartridges are available to order from Miele or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com (see end of this booklet for contact details).
Liquid detergent/Fabric conditioner
Refillable TwinDos containers are required for liquid detergent and/or fabric conditioner. These are available to order from Miele or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com (see end of this booklet for details).
How TwinDos works
Automatic detergent dispensing for a wash cycle is activated via the Dos sensor.
Tip: The washing machine is delivered pre-set for the Miele 2 Phase system for hardness range II ().
The settings only need to be changed if you wish to use a different detergent or if the water hardness is different.
See "Settings - TwinDos" for more information.
Automatic dispensing cannot be selected with some programmes, depending on the detergent present in the TwinDos system. For example, automatic dispensing cannot be activated for the Woollens programme if the Miele 2 Phase system is being used. This prevents woollen garments being damaged by a detergent which is not suitable for washing wool.
21
Washing environmentally and economically
Energy and water consumption
– Water consumption and energy usage are determined by the size of the load.
To make the most of your machine, load the maximum dry load for the programme you are using.
– When smaller amounts of laundry are washed, the automatic load recognition system will reduce the amount of water and energy used.
– Use the Express 20 programme for small, lightly soiled loads.
– Modern detergents make it possible to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20 °C). Washing using lower temperature settings will save energy.
– To maintain the hygiene of the machine, carry out a hot wash (60 °C or above) using powder detergent at regular intervals. Hygiene info will appear in the display to remind you to carry out a hot wash.
Detergent
– For precise dispensing use automatic detergent dispensing.
– Adjust the dosage to the degree of soiling of the laundry.
– Do not exceed the amounts of detergent recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.
When drying with a tumble dryer
Selecting the highest possible spin speed for the wash programme will save energy when drying in a tumble dryer afterwards.
22
Washing environmentally and economically
EcoFeedback
You can call up information about the energy and water consumption of your washing machine with the EcoFeedback sensor.
The following information will appear in the display:
– an estimate of the energy and water consumption before the programme begins.
– the actual energy and water consumption during the programme or at the end of the programme.
1. Estimate
After selecting a programme, touch the EcoFeedback sensor.
The estimated energy and water consumption levels will be displayed as bar charts.
Estimated consumption
Energy _ _ _ _ _ _
Water
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
2. Actual consumption
You can view the actual amount of energy and water used by the programme which has just been run both during and at the end of the programme.
Touch the EcoFeedback sensor.
Consumption
Energy 0,8 kWh
Water 64 l
The consumption will alter as the programme progresses.
If the door is opened or the washing machine has switched off automatically at the end of the programme, the data will revert to the estimated consumption.
Tip: You can view the consumption data for the last wash programme in
Settings under Consumption.
The more bars () visible, the higher the energy or water consumption.
The estimate will vary depending on the wash programme, temperature and any options selected.
The display will change automatically or you can return to the standard display by touching the OK sensor.

1. Prepare the laundry
Tip: Badly soiled areas can be pretreated with liquid detergent, stain removers etc. first, following the manufacturer's instructions. With particularly stubborn stains ask your dry cleaner for advice.
Solvent-based cleaners (e.g.
benzine) can damage plastic parts.
When pre-treating garments, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g.
buttons) are protected from cleaning agent.
Empty all pockets.
Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause damage to garments and to components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing and remove any foreign objects.
Chemical (solvent-based) cleaning agents can cause severe damage to the washing machine.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine.
Sort the laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam.
Tip: 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.
Pre-treat stains
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.
General tips
– 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.
– Close any zips, attach velcro fasteners, fasten hooks and eyes etc.
before washing.

Spinning
Final spin speed in the programme
When a programme is selected the optimum spin speed for that programme will appear in the display.
For programmes marked with a * in the chart, the optimum spin speed is not the maximum spin speed.
You can reduce the final spin speed.
However, you cannot select a final spin speed higher than that shown in the chart.
Rinse and interim spin
There is a spin after the main wash and between the rinses. A reduction in the final spin speed will also reduce the interim spin speed. If a spin speed of less than 700 rpm is selected for the
Cottons programme, an additional rinse is introduced.
35
Spinning
To omit the final spin (Rinse hold)
Use the Further options button to select the Rinse hold setting. The laundry is not spun after the final rinse and remains in the final rinse water. This helps prevent creasing if the laundry is not going to be removed from the drum immediately after the end of the programme.
– To start the final spin:
The washing machine will display the maximum spin speed possible. You can select a spin speed lower than this. Start the final spin by pressing the Start/Stop button.
– To end the programme:
Use the Spin speed button to select the 0 rpm setting (Without spin) and press the Start/Stop button.
The water will drain away.
To omit rinse and interim spin and the final spin
Press the Spin speed button.
Select the
0 rpm setting.
After the last rinse, the water will be pumped away and the anti-crease phase will switch in.
In some programmes an additional rinse is introduced with this setting.

ProgrammeManager
The ProgrammeManager option can be used to customise the washing programmes to suit your requirements.
Intensive
For hard-wearing laundry that is very heavily soiled. Cleaning efficiency is increased through more intense mechanical action and the application of more heat energy.
ECO
This option reduces energy consumption whilst maintaining cleaning efficiency. This is achieved by increasing the wash duration and at the same time reducing the wash temperature selected.
Extra gentle
This option decreases mechanical action in order to reduce creasing.
Extra quiet
This option reduces noise levels during the programme. Use this if you want to wash during quiet periods (for instance when children are sleeping). The machine will activate the "Rinse hold" option and not spin. The programme duration is longer.
AllergoWash
This option should be used where high standards of hygiene are required. More energy is used to lengthen temperature holding times and more water is used to increase rinsing efficiency.
Not all ProgrammeManager options are suitable for use with every programme. Please refer to the "Wash programme chart -
ProgrammeManager" for a list of suitable programmes.
49
Options
Steam smoothing
Steam is injected into the drum at the end of the wash process. Reducing the maximum load by 50% will give a better result. For steam smoothing to work properly there needs to be a certain amount of residual moisture still present in the laundry and so the final spin speed is adjusted accordingly.
The garments must be suitable for drying in a tumble dryer and suitable for ironing .
Short
Use this option for light soiling with no visible staining.
The wash duration is reduced.
Stains
In order to clean stained laundry more effectively you can choose from a list of various types of stains. The wash programme will then adapt to the types of stains selected. You can select a maximum of three stains per wash cycle.
Further options
Soak
For heavily soiled and stained items with protein stains.
A duration of between 30 minutes and
5 hours in 30 minute increments can be chosen for the soak process. See
"Settings" for more information.
The factory default setting is
30 minutes.
Rinse hold
The laundry is not spun after the final rinse and remains in the final rinse water. This helps prevent creasing if the laundry is not going to be removed from the drum immediately after the end of the programme.
Pre-wash
For laundry with large amounts of dirt, e.g. dust and sand.
Water plus
The water level in the wash and rinse stages is increased.
You can select by how much the water level is increased, see "Settings, Water plus level".
Extra rinse
An additional rinse cycle is carried out to give a better rinse result.

The washing machine has fully electronic controls with automatic load recognition. It takes in the right amount of water required for the programme depending on the amount of laundry and its absorbency rate.
The programme sequences shown in the chart are based on the standard programme with a full load.
The washing machine programme sequence display shows which stage of the programme has been reached.
Special features in the programme sequence
Anti-crease:
At the end of the programme the drum continues to turn at intervals for up to
30 minutes to help prevent creasing.
Exception: There is no anti-crease phase in the Woollens and Silks programmes.
The door can be opened at any time during the anti-crease phase.
1)
If a temperature of 60 °C or higher is selected, or with and temperatures, 2 rinses are carried out.
If a temperature of less than 60 °C is selected, 3 rinses are carried out.
2)
An additional rinse is carried out if:
– there is too much foam in the drum
– a spin speed lower than 700 rpm has been selected
– the spin speed has been deselected
3)
An additional rinse is carried out if:
– Additional rinse has been selected.
4)
Run-up to spin: A run-up to spin is carried out before the wash process begins to deflate down filled items.
Subsequent water intake for the main wash is through compartment .
55
Programme sequence
Cottons and Minimum iron
PowerWash 2.0, the washing technique developed by Miele, is activated in the
Cottons programme with small and medium-sized loads and in the
Minimum iron programme
How it works
Conventional washing techniques wash with more water than the laundry can absorb. This total volume of water needs to be heated.
The PowerWash 2.0 washing technique only uses slightly more water than the laundry can absorb. The water which has not been absorbed by the laundry heats up the drum and the laundry and is sprayed into the laundry over and over again. This reduces the amount of energy used.
Activation
The washing machine calculates the load at the beginning of the wash programme. PowerWash 2.0 is activated if the following conditions are present:
– there is a small to medium-sized laundry load in the Cottons programme and in the Minimum iron programme.
– the temperature selected must not be more than 60 °C.
– the final spin speed selected must not be lower than 600 rpm.
– CapDosing (, ) ) has not been selected for the main wash.
With some options (e.g. Pre-wash,
Water plus) PowerWash 2.0 is not activated.
Special features
– Drenching phase
The washing machine will spin a few times at the beginning of the programme. During spinning, the water discharged is sprayed back into the laundry in order to achieve optimum moisture penetration.
The optimum water level is set at the end of the drenching phase. If necessary, the washing machine will pump water away or take in a little more fresh water.
– Noises during the heating phase
Unusual bubbling noises can occur while the laundry and the drum are being heated.
– Use of detergent
Make sure you add the correct amount of detergent (for smaller loads).
For optimum detergent application, use the TwinDos function.
56
Washing
The figure quoted in the bucket is the maximum temperature the garment can be washed at. The number of bars under the symbol indicates the level of agitation permitted.
No bar under the symbol:

Detergent
The correct detergent
All detergents produced for automatic washing machines are suitable. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and dosage recommendations on the packaging.
For users in Asia: please use a low foaming detergent suitable for use in front-loading machines
The right amount to dispense will depend on the following:
– the soiling level of the load
– the quantity of the laundry
– the water hardness level.
Check with your local water supplier if you do not know the hardness level in your area.
Water softeners
A water softener can be used to cut down on the use of detergents in areas with water hardness levels II and III.
Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging. First add detergent and then the water softener.
You can then use the recommended amount of detergent for water hardness level I.
Water hardness levels

Dispensing aids
Use dispensing aids, (e.g. balls) if these are supplied with the detergent, particularly when using liquid detergent.
Refill packs of detergent
When purchasing detergent buy refill packs wherever possible. This helps reduce the amount of waste packaging.
Fabric conditioner and liquid starch
Fabric conditioner makes garments soft to handle and helps prevent static cling when tumble drying.
Starch stiffens and gives body to items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen.

Problem solving guide
An unsatisfactory wash result
Problem
Liquid detergent does not give the required result.
Cause and remedy
Liquid detergents usually contain no bleaching agents. They do not remove fruit, coffee and tea stains.
Use the Miele 2 Phase System. The targeted addition of UltraPhase 2 during the wash process removes stains effectively.
Use a general purpose powder detergent containing a bleaching agent.
Grey, greasy particles cling to washed laundry.
Insufficient amounts of detergent were used to break down the particles of grease in heavily soiled laundry.
Use more detergent.
Before washing the next load, run the Maintenance wash using Miele machine cleaner or a powder detergent.
White residues which look like powder detergent are seen on dark textiles after washing.
The detergent contained compounds (zeolites) to aid water softening which are not soluble in water. These have ended up on the laundry.
Try and brush off the residues with a soft brush once the laundry is dry.
Wash dark textiles using a detergent which contains no zeolites. Liquid detergents usually contain no zeolites.
Use the Dark garments programme.

Installation and connection
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 59 x 52 x 3 cm). The base should span several joists and be bolted to the joist and not only the floorboards. Check for the presence of pipes and cables first.
Tip: If possible, install the machine in a corner, as this is usually the most stable part of the floor.
There is the danger of the washing machine moving about during spinning and falling off a plinth.
For this reason, if the machine is installed on a raised plinth (concrete or brick), it has to be secured against slippage using an MTS floor/plinth mounting kit (available from Miele).
Transporting the washing machine to its installation site
To manoeuvre the washing machine out of its packing case to its installation site, hold it by the front feet as well as by the edge of the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the machine.
Ensure that the machine feet and the floor are dry to prevent the machine from slipping during the spin cycle.
Removing the transit bars
To remove the left and right covers
1. Pull on the attached stopper,
2. then use a screwdriver to release the catches at the top and bottom.
85
Installation and connection
Using the spanner supplied, turn the left-hand transit bar 90°, then
Turn the right-hand transit bar 90°, then
pull the transit bar out.
pull the transit bar out.
86
To avoid the risk of injury, the holes for the transit bars must be covered after the transit bars have been removed.
Installation and connection
Plug the holes with the plastic caps as illustrated.
Secure the transit bars to the back of the washing machine. Make sure the top catch is located above the holder.
The washing 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.
87
Installation and connection
Levelling the machine
The washing 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 that the washing 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.
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 a danger of the machine moving about.
Using the spanner supplied turn counter nut 2 in a clockwise direction.
Then turn counter nut 2 together with foot 1 to unscrew.

Installation and connection
The water protection system
The Miele water protection system protects all parts of the washing machine from water damage.
The system consists of three main components:
– the inlet hose
– the electronic unit and drainage and overflow protection
– the drain hose
The Waterproof System (WPS)
1

5
4
3 a Two solenoid valves b Double-skinned inlet hose c Sump d Float switch e Electronic unit f Drain pump
6
Inlet hose
– The casing on the inlet hose contains two solenoid valves , which cut off the water intake directly at the stopcock. These valves provide twofold protection. In the event that one of the valves is faulty, the other valve will cut off the water intake.
Blocking the water intake at the stopcock means that the inlet hose is only under pressure whilst water is being taken into the machine. For the remainder of the time, pressure on the inlet hose is negligible.
– Protection against the solenoid valves bursting
The solenoid valves are pressure tested to between 7,000 kPa and
10,000 kPa against bursting.
– The double-skinned inlet hose has a pressure-resistant inner hose and a protective sleeve. Any leaking water is fed into the sump through this protective sleeve. A float switch closes the solenoid valves, preventing any more water flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.
90
The electronic unit and drainage and overflow protection
– Drainage protection
Any leaking water is collected in the sump in the base of the machine.
A float switch closes the solenoid valves , preventing any more water from flowing into the machine and water in the suds container is pumped away.
– Overflow protection
If the water level exceeds a certain level, the drain pump switches in and pumps the excess water away in a controlled manner.
Should the water level rise repeatedly in an uncontrolled way, the drain pump will switch on continuously, the washing machine will indicate that there is a fault and a tone will sound.
Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a ventilation system which prevents the washing machine from being emptied completely.
Installation and connection
91
Installation and connection
Connection to the water supply
The casing on the water inlet hose contains electrical components.
It must not be connected in areas where there is the risk of water or other liquids reaching it, e.g.
bathrooms.
The casing on the water inlet hose must not get wet.
The washing machine should be connected to a mains water supply in accordance with current 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 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 a ¾" threaded union. 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.
The washing machine is not suitable for connection to a hot water supply.
The protective sleeve of the hose must not be damaged or kinked.

Only use a Miele Waterproof system hose should you need a replacement.
Disconnect the machine from the electricity supply before unscrewing the waterproof system inlet hose from the stopcock.
In order to protect the water inlet valve, the dirt filter in the water inlet valve connection must not be removed.
Extension hose
A 1.5 metre long (metal) extension hose is available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department as an optional extra.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.
N.B. Using this hose will render the
Water system safety valve on the inlet hose ineffective.
Installation and connection

Installation and connection
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 be purchased from your Miele Dealer or Miele.
* 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 Miele or your Miele
Dealer for advice. If necessary, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 2.5 m. The necessary parts can be purchased from your Miele Dealer or
Miele.
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 floor gully.
4. Connected securely to a standpipe.
Please note:
Adapter
Nut

Consumption data
Note for test institutes
*
Test programme in accordance with EN 60456 and energy label with
Directive 1061/2010
Consumption data can vary from the nominal values given depending on water pressure, water hardness, water inlet temperature, room temperature, type and volume of load, fluctuations in the electricity supply and any options selected.
With the PowerWash 2.0 washing technique, during the heating phase, the temperature measured by the sensor in the suds container is higher than the actual temperature of the laundry.
The temperature measured there does not reflect the temperature of the laundry.
The consumption data shown in the EcoFeedback display can vary from the consumption data quoted here. The variations arise from component tolerances and on-site conditions e.g. fluctuations in the pressure of the water supply, mains voltage and fluctuations in the mains voltage.
