Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packaging
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally 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. Ensure that any plastic
wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of
babies and young children. Danger of
suffocation.
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. You are also responsible for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance prior to
disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
This washing machine complies with all current local and national
safety requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to
personal injury and damage to property.
Read the operating instructions carefully before using the washing
machine. They contain important information on safety,
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance. This prevents
both personal injury and damage to the washing machine.
In accordance with standard IEC60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in
“Installation”, as well as in the “Warning and Safety instructions”.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them
on to any future owner.
Correct application
This washing machine is designed for domestic use and for use in
similar environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed &
breakfasts and other typical living quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels,
motels or bed & breakfasts.
The washing machine is not suitable for outdoor use.
It must only be used to wash garments which have been declared
suitable for washing by the manufacturer indicated on the garment
care label. Any other use is not permitted. Miele cannot be held
liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or
operation.
This washing machine is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning its use by a person
responsible for their safety.
Warning and Safety instructions
8
Safety with children
Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
Older children may only use the appliance when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
Cleaning work may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the washing machine
and do not let them play with it.
Technical safety
Please observe the instructions in “Installation” and “Technical
data”.
Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally
visible damage. Do not install or use a damaged machine.
Before connecting the washing machine, ensure that the
connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and
frequency) matches the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation with a self-sufficient or non-
mains synchronous energy supply system (e.g. isolated networks,
back-up systems) is possible. A requirement for the operation is that
the energy supply system complies with all current local and national
requirements that apply to stand-alone, solar and/or battery
systems.
The protective measures provided in the installation and in this Miele
product must also be assured in their function and operation in
isolated operation or in non-mains synchronous operation, or
replaced with equivalent measures in the installation.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
The electrical safety of this washing machine can only be
guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing system which complies with current local and national
safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly tested and, where there is any
doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a
qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the
consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric
shock).
Do not connect the washing machine to the mains electricity
supply by a multi-socket adapter, extension lead or similar. These do
not guarantee the required safety of the machine (fire hazard due to
the risk of overheating).
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
Miele replacement parts are used.
The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so
that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply if
necessary.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician, otherwise any
subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
If the connection cable is faulty, it must only be replaced by a
Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the washing
machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
- it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or
- it is switched off at the mains circuit breaker.
The machine must only be connected to the on-site water supply
using a new hose kit. Old hose kits must not be re-used. Check the
condition of the hoses regularly so that you can replace them in
good time and avoid the risk of any water damage.
The water flow pressure must be at least 100kPa and must not
exceed 1000kPa.
This washing machine must not be installed and operated in
mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).
Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which
may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered
by the machine warranty.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
Correct use
Do not install the washing machine in a room where there is a risk
of frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the
electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below
freezing point.
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the transit
bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see “Installation
- Removing the transit bars”). During spinning, a transit bar which is
still in place may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent
furniture or appliances.
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time
(e.g. holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the
immediate vicinity.
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a laundry washtub, check that the
water can drain off quickly enough to prevent the laundry tub 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.
Take care to ensure that foreign 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.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Take care when opening the drum door after using the steam
function. There is a danger of burning due to escaping steam and
the high temperature of the surface of the drum as well as the
porthole glass. Stand back away from the machine and wait until the
steam has dissipated.
The maximum load for this washing machine is 9.0 kg (dry
weight). See the “Programme chart” for the maximum recommended
loads for individual programmes.
If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine
should not need to be descaled. If, however, you do wish to descale
it, only use a proprietary natural citric acid based descaling agent.
Miele recommends using Miele descaler for washing machines
which is available to order online at shop.miele.com (depending on
country) or from Miele. Strictly observe the instructions on the
packaging.
Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning
agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being
washed in the machine.
Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing
benzine, in this machine, as this may result in damage to component
parts and create toxic fumes. Such agents also pose a fire and
explosion hazard.
Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing
benzine, to clean the external surfaces of the machine. They can
cause damage to plastic surfaces.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for
use in a domestic washing machine. Always observe the
manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds which
can cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use these products in
this machine.
If detergent comes into contact with the eyes, rinse them
thoroughly with lukewarm water immediately. If swallowed, seek
medical assistance immediately and retain the packaging or label for
reference. Those with skin problems or sensitive skin should avoid
their skin coming into contact with detergent.
Accessories and spare parts
Only use original Miele accessories and spare parts. If other parts
are used, warranty, performance and product liability claims will be
invalidated.
A Miele tumble dryer can be stacked on top of a Miele washing
machine using the appropriate stacking kit (available as an optional
accessory). Please make sure you order the correct one for the Miele
washing machine and Miele tumble dryer.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the
discontinuation of your washing machine.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Miele@home
Your washing machine is equipped
with an integrated Wi-Fi module.
In order to use it you need:
- a Wi-Fi network
- the Miele@mobile App
- a Miele user account. The user
account can be created via the
Miele@mobile App.
The Miele@mobile App will guide you
as you connect your washing machine
to your home Wi-Fi network.
Once your washing machine is
connected to your Wi-Fi network, you
can use the App, for example, to carry
out the following activities:
- Operate your washing machine
remotely
- Access information about the
operating status of your washing
machine
- Access information about a
programme sequence on your
washing machine
Connecting your washing machine to
your Wi-Fi network will increase energy
consumption, even when the washing

Before installing the washing
machine in its final location, ensure
the signal strength is sufficient for
your Wi-Fi network.
Availability of the Wi-Fi connection
The Wi-Fi connection shares a
frequency range with other appliances
(including microwave ovens and remote
control toys). This may result in
sporadic or even complete connection
failures. Therefore, a constant
availability of featured functions cannot
be guaranteed.
Miele@home availability
The ability to use the Miele App

Washing environmentally and economically
24
Energy and water consumption
- To get the most out of your machine,
load the maximum dry load size for
the wash programme you are using.
This will keep the energy and water
consumption to a minimum in relation
to the size of the load.
- Programmes that are more efficient
with regard to energy and water
consumption generally have a longer
running time. By extending the
programme running time, the wash
temperature that is actually reached
can be reduced while still providing
the same wash results.
For example, the Cottons
programme has a longer running time
than the Cottons40°C or 60°C
programme, but the Cottons
programme is more efficient in terms
of energy and water consumption.
- Use the Express 20programme for
small, lightly soiled loads.
- Modern detergents make it possible
to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.
20°C). Using lower temperature
settings will save energy.
Hygiene in the washing
machine
Washing at low temperatures and/or
using liquid detergents can cause
bacteria and odours to build up in the
washing machine. Miele therefore
recommends cleaning the washing
machine once every month.
When the message Hygiene info: Run a
programme at min. 75°C or “Clean

display, the washing machine must be
cleaned.
Information about subsequent
tumble drying
The spin speed selected affects the
residual moisture in the laundry and the
sound emissions of the washing
machine.
The higher the spin speed, the lower
the residual moisture in the laundry.
However, the sound emissions of the
washing machine will increase.
Select the highest possible spin speed
for the wash programme to save energy
in the subsequent tumble dryer cycle.
Detergent consumption
- 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.
1. Preparing the laundry
25
Empty all pockets.
Damage due to foreign objects.
Nails, coins, paper clips, and so on
can cause damage to garments and
components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing
and remove any foreign objects.
Sorting the laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by
care label. Most garments have a
textile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Useful tip: Dark textiles often contain
excess dye and should be washed
separately several times before being
included in a mixed load. Always wash
white and coloured items separately.
Pre-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains 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.
Useful tip: Please refer to the Miele
website or Miele@mobile App for more
information on stain removal.
Damage due to solvent-based
cleaning agents.
Cleaning agents containing benzine,
stain remover, etc., can damage
plastic parts.
When pre-treating garments, make
sure that any plastic parts (e.g.
buttons) do not come into contact
with cleaning agent.
Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based cleaning agents.
If solvent-based cleaning agents are
used, an explosive mixture can form.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in the washing machine.
General tips
- Curtains: remove lead weights first or
place in a laundry bag.
- Remove or sew in any loose
underwiring in bras or shirt collar
stiffeners.
- Close any zips, attach velcro
fasteners, fasten hooks and eyes etc.
before washing.
- Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from being
rolled up inside them.
Do not wash items which are specified
by the manufacturer as not washable
on the care label (symbol).

5. Adding detergent
32
There are several options for adding
detergent.
TwinDos
The washing machine is equipped with
the TwinDos system.
TwinDos has to be activated as
described in “Before using for the first
time”.
How UltraPhase1 and UltraPhase2
work
UltraPhase1 is a liquid detergent which
dissolves dirt and removes the most
common stains. UltraPhase2 is a
bleaching agent and removes stubborn
stains. For the best washing result,
these two agents are dispensed at
separate times during the wash
process. UltraPhase1 and UltraPhase2
clean white and coloured fabrics
thoroughly. UltraPhase1 and
UltraPhase2 single use cartridges are
available to order from Miele or via the
internet at shop.miele.com (see the end
of this booklet for details).
Activating TwinDos dispensing
TwinDos dispensing is automatically
activated for all programmes in which
dispensing is possible.
Useful tip: The detergent dispensing
quantities are preset. If too much foam
builds up, the dispensing quantity can
be reduced via Settings TwinDos.
Changing TwinDos dispensing
You can change the suggested colour
composition of the laundry.
Touch the sensor for White items or
Coloured items.
Deactivating TwinDos dispensing
Touch the TwinDos sensor.
The sensor is only dimly lit and
dispensing is deactivated.
Using other methods to remove
stains
If you wish to use additional methods of
stain removal, you have the following
options:
- Using the Booster cap and activating
CapDosing.
- Add stain remover to the
compartment.
5. Adding detergent
33
Selecting the degree of soiling
The level of soiling in laundry is divided
into three settings:
- Light
No visible soiling or stains.
- Normal
Visibly soiled and/or just a few slight
stains.
- Heavy
Heavily soiled and/or clearly visible
stains.
The dispensing amount for TwinDos
and the amount of water required for
rinsing is preset for the Normal level
of soiling.
Touch the sensor to select a
different level of soiling.
The amount of detergent and water will
be adjusted to suit the selected level of
soiling.
5. Adding detergent
34
Detergent dispenser drawer
Any detergent suitable for automatic
front loading washing machines can be
used with this appliance. Please
observe the instructions for use and
dosage on the detergent packaging.
Ensure that TwinDos dispensing is
deactivated.
Filling with detergent
Pull out the detergent drawer and add
detergents to the compartments.
Detergent for the pre-wash (divide
the total recommended amount as
follows: add ⅓ to compartment
and ⅔ to compartment )
Detergent for the main wash and
soaking
Fabric softener, liquid starch, or
capsules
See “Detergent” for further information.
Adding fabric softener
Add fabric softener or liquid starch to
the compartment. Do not exceed
the maximum level mark.
It will be automatically dispensed in the
final rinse. At the end of the programme
a small amount of water remains in the
fabric softener compartment.
Starch can make the siphon tube
sticky.
If starching frequently, thoroughly
clean the dispenser compartment,
especially the siphon tube, regularly.
5. Adding detergent
35
Tips on dosing
Adjust the detergent dosage to the level
of soiling of the laundry and the size of
the load. Reduce the amount of
detergent with smaller loads (e.g.
reduce the amount of detergent by ⅓
when washing a half load).
Too little detergent results in:
- laundry not getting properly clean
and with time it may become grey
and hard to the touch.
- a build-up of mould in the washing
machine.
- grease not being completely removed
from the laundry.
- limescale deposits on the heater
elements.
Too much detergent results in:
- poor wash, rinse, and spin results.
- a higher water consumption as an
extra rinse cycle is automatically
activated.
- a greater burden on the environment.
Using liquid detergent with a pre-
wash
Liquid detergent cannot be used for the
main wash if the pre-wash has been
selected.
Use TwinDos dispensing if you are
activating the pre-wash.
Using detergent tablets or pods
Always put detergent tablets or pods
directly in the drum with the laundry.
They cannot be added via the detergent
dispenser drawer.
See “Detergent” for further information
on detergents and dosage.
5. Adding detergent
36
CapDosing
Three different types of capsule are
available:
= Fabric care (e.g. fabric
softener)
= Additives (e.g. booster)
= Detergent (for the main wash
only)
Each capsule contains the correct
amount for one wash cycle.
You can order the capsules online at
shop.miele.com (depending on country)
or from Miele (see the end of this
booklet for contact details).
Capsules pose a health risk.
The ingredients of capsules can be
hazardous to health if they are
swallowed or come into contact with
skin.
Keep capsules out of the reach of
children.
Activating CapDosing
Touch the sensor.
The following appears in the display:
OK
No Cap

and do not re-use it.
The wash programme will dispense the
contents of the capsule at the correct
time.
Water intake to the compartment
is solely via the capsule.
No additional fabric softener may be
added to the compartment when
using a capsule.
Remove the empty capsule at the
end of the programme.
For technical reasons a small amount
of water will remain in the capsule.

Detergent
55
The correct detergent
All detergents produced for automatic
front loading washing machines are
suitable. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions and dosage
recommendations on the packaging.
The right amount to dispense
will depend on the following:
- The soiling level of the laundry.
- The quantity of laundry.
- The water hardness level. Check with
your local water authority if you do
not know the water hardness level in
your area.
Detergent 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 softeners and liquid
starch
Fabric softeners
make garments soft to handle and help
prevent static cling when tumble drying.
Fabric shapers
are synthetic starches and give an even
stiffer hold.
Starch
stiffens and gives body to items of
laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed
linen.

An unsatisfactory wash result
Problem Possible cause and remedy
Liquid detergent does
not give the required
result.
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 or liquid detergent.
Before washing the next load, run the Clean
machine programme using the Miele IntenseClean
washing 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 does
not contain zeolites. Liquid detergents usually do
not contain zeolites.
Use the Dark garments/Denim programme.

not remove it completely.
Place a suitable container under the
access panel, e.g. a universal oven
tray.
Slowly and carefully unscrew the filter
to let the water out. Be careful not to
release too much water at once. If the
flow of water is too strong, some
water can seep into the washing
machine base and activate the water
protection system. This will prevent
the washing machine from
functioning.

Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation surface. It is 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:
Install the machine on a plywood
base (at least 59x52x3cm). 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.
Useful tip: If possible, install the
machine in a corner. This is usually the
most stable part of the floor.
Transporting the washing
machine to its installation site
Danger of injury due to
unsecured lid.
Make sure the fixings at the back of
the lid are secure. They may become
brittle due to external circumstances.
There is a danger of the lid being
pulled off when carrying the
appliance.
Before carrying the appliance, check
that the lid is secure where it
protrudes at the back.
Carry the washing machine by the
front feet and by the lid where it
protrudes at the back of the
appliance.

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
for levelling the washing machine. All
four feet are screwed in when the
appliance is delivered.
Using the spanner supplied, turn
counter nut 2 in a clockwise direction.
Then turn counter nut 2 together with
foot 1 to unscrew.
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.
Risk of damage due to
incorrectly aligned washing machine.
There is a danger of the washing
machine moving about if the feet are
not secured.
Turn all four counter nuts for the feet
until they sit firmly up against the
housing. Please also check this for
the feet which did not need
adjustment.

Installing under a continuous
worktop
Risk of electric shock due to
exposed cables.
There is a risk of coming into contact
with live parts while the lid is
removed.
Do not remove the washing machine
lid.
This washing machine (with lid intact)
can be pushed under a worktop if there
is space to do so.
Plinth
The washing machine can be installed
on a plinth with drawer (please note the
plinth may not be available in all
countries).
The plinth must be purchased as a pair
and secured to the second plinth
supporting another tumble dryer or
washing machine.

The Miele water protection
system
The Miele water protection system
protects all parts of the washing
machine and surrounds from water
damage.
The system consists of three main
components:
- the inlet hose
- the electronic unit and drainage and
overflow protection
- the drain hose
Inlet hose
- Protection against bursting
The inlet hose is tested to withstand
pressures up to 7000kPa.
Electronic unit and machine housing
- Sump: any leaking water from the
washing machine is collected in the
floor tray. There is a float switch to
close the water intake valve. The
water inlet is shut off and any water
inside the suds container is drained
away.
- Leak protection: any leaking water
that is not collected in the sump is
detected. The water inlet is shut off
and any water inside the suds
container is drained away.
- Overflow protection: this prevents the
washing machine from taking in too
much water and overflowing. If the
water level exceeds a certain level,
the drain pump switches on and
pumps the excess water away in a
controlled way.
Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a
ventilation system which prevents the
washing machine from being emptied
completely.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
85
Connection to the water supply
Connecting the water inlet
Health risk and risk of damage
due to contaminated mains water.
The quality of the water used must
correspond to the drinking water
specification of the country in which
the washing machine is being
operated.
Always connect the washing
machine to potable water.
The washing machine must be
connected to a mains water supply in
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations.
The water connection pressure needs
to be between 100kPa (1 bar) and
1000kPa (10 bar). If the water
connection pressure exceeds 1000kPa,
a pressure reducing valve must be
installed.
A tap with a ¾inch threaded union is
required for the connection. If this is not
available, only a qualified plumber may
connect the washing machine to the
mains water supply.
The screw thread is subject to water
connection pressure.
Check that the connection is
leakproof. Slowly turn on the tap.
Correct the position of the seal and
screw thread if necessary.
The washing machine is not suitable
for connection to a hot water supply.
Maintenance
Only use a genuine Miele hose should
you ever need a replacement. These are
tested to withstand pressures up to
7000kPa.
A filter is located in the open end
of the inlet hose and another in the
intake point to protect the inlet valve.
The filters must remain in place, and
be replaced after cleaning.
Hose extension
Longer hoses 2.5m or 4.0m in length
are available from Miele as optional
accessories (depending on country).
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
86
Drainage
The suds are drained through a drain
pump with a 1m high delivery head. For
the water to drain freely, the hose must
be free of kinks.
If required, the hose can be extended to
a length of up to 5m. The necessary
parts can be ordered from Miele
(depending on country).
For a delivery head of more than 1m
(up to a max. of 1.8m), a replacement
drain pump will need to be fitted.
Please contact Miele for advice.
For a delivery head of 1.8m, the hose
can be extended to a length of up to
2.5m. The necessary parts can be
ordered from Miele (depending on
country).
Drain hose connection options
1. Directed into a laundry trough or tub
or into the sud-saver pipe of a
laundry trough or tub.
Please note:
– Hook the hose over the edge and
secure it.
– 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 trapped
waste pipe.
3. Connected securely to a floor drain
(gully).
Using the elbow
To prevent the drain hose from slipping,
use the enclosed elbow.
Attach the elbow to the drain hose
.
Hang the drain hose over the sink.
Secure the elbow from slipping using
a strap and the eyelet .

Electrical connection
The washing machine is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to a switched socket.
The socket should be easily accessible
after the machine has been installed. If
the switch is not accessible after
installation, an additional means of
disconnection must be provided for all
poles.
Risk of fire from overheating!
Connecting the washing machine to
a multi-socket plug adapter or to an
extension lead can overload the
cable.
Do not use an extension lead or
multi-socket plug adapter.
All electrical work must be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person, in strict accordance with
national and local safety regulations.
For extra safety, it is advisable to install
a suitable residual current device (RCD)
with a trip current of 30mA. Ensure
power is not supplied to the appliance
until after the installation has been
completed.
If the mains connection cable is
damaged, it must only be replaced with
a specific mains connection cable of
the same type (available from Miele).
For safety reasons, such replacement
may only be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent technician or
by a Miele authorised service
technician, in order to avoid a hazard.
The data plate indicates the nominal
power consumption and the
appropriate fuse rating. Compare this
information with the data of the on-site
electrical connection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation with
a self-sufficient or non-mains
synchronous energy supply system
(e.g. isolated networks, back-up
systems) is possible. A requirement for
the operation is that the energy supply
system complies with all current local
and national requirements that apply to
stand-alone, solar and/or battery
systems.
The protective measures provided in
the domestic installation and in this
Miele product must also be assured in
their function and operation in isolated
operation or in non-mains synchronous
operation, or replaced with equivalent
measures in the installation.
