Caring for the environment

Disposing of the packaging ma-

terial

The packaging material is used for hand-

ling and protects the appliance from

transport damage. The packaging ma-

terial used is selected from materials

which are environmentally friendly for

disposal and can generally be recycled.

Recycling the packaging material re-

duces the use of raw materials. Use ma-

terial-specific collection points for valu-

able materials and take advantage of re-

turn options. Your Miele dealer will take

the packaging material away.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances con-

tain many valuable materials. They also

contain certain materials, compounds

and components which were essential

for their correct functioning and safety.

These could be hazardous to human

health and to the environment if dis-

posed of with household waste or if

handled incorrectly. Please do not,

therefore, dispose of your old appliance

with household waste.

Instead, please make use of officially

designated collection and disposal

points to dispose of and recycle elec-

trical and electronic appliances in your

local community, with your dealer or

with Miele, free of charge. By law, you

are solely responsible for deleting any

personal data from the old appliance

prior to disposal. You are legally obliged

to remove any old batteries which are

not securely enclosed by the appliance

and to remove any lamps without des-

troying them, where this is possible.

These must be taken to a suitable col-

lection point where they can be handed

in free of charge. Please ensure that

your old appliance poses no risk to chil-

dren while being stored for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions

 It is essential to read these instructions.

This washer-dryer complies with all current local and national

safety requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to per-

sonal injury and damage to property.

Read the operating instructions carefully before using the washer-

dryer. They contain important information on safety, installation,

use and maintenance. This prevents both personal injury and dam-

age to the washer-dryer.

In accordance with standard IEC60335-1, Miele expressly and

strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the

chapter on installing the washer-dryer as well as the safety instruc-

tions and warnings.

Miele cannot be held liable for 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 washer-dryer is intended for use in domestic households and

similar working and residential environments.

 This washer-dryer is intended for use in domestic households for

the following applications only:

- washing textiles which have a care label stating that they are

washable.

- drying textiles which have been washed in water and have a care

label stating that they are suitable for tumble drying.

Any other usage is not permitted. Miele cannot be held liable for

damage resulting from improper use or incorrect operation of the ma-

chine.

 This washer-dryer is not intended for outdoor use.

Warning and Safety instructions

 This washer-dryer can only be used by people with reduced phys-

ical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or know-

ledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how

to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the con-

sequences of incorrect operation.

Safety with children

 Children under eight years of age must be kept away from the

washer-dryer unless they are constantly supervised.

 Children eight years and older may only use the washer-dryer un-

supervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recog-

nise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the washer-

dryer unsupervised.

 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the washer-dryer and do

not let them play with it.

Technical safety

 Before setting up the washing-dryer, check it for any externally vis-

ible damage.

Do not install or use a damaged washer-dryer.

 Before connecting the washer-dryer, ensure that the connection

data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) match the

mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electri-

cian.

 The electrical safety of this washer-dryer can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed.

It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any

doubt, please have the household wiring system tested 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 machine to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead, multi-socket adapter or similar. These can overheat

and are a fire hazard.

Warning and Safety instructions

 Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the

user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs

should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician,

otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the guaran-

tee.

 Please observe the instructions in “Installation” and the “Technical

data”.

 This washer-dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with par-

ticular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance,

abrasion resistance and vibration). This lamp must only be used for

the purpose for which it is intended. The lamp is not suitable for room

lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised

technician or by the Miele Customer Service Department.

The washer-dryer contains 1 light source corresponding to energy ef-

ficiency class G.

 The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so

that the washer-dryer can be disconnected from the electricity sup-

ply if necessary.

 The washer-dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply

when cleaning and maintaining the machine and in the event of a

fault.

 The Miele “Water protection system” protects from water damage

provided the following conditions are met:

- The machine is correctly plumbed in and connected to the electri-

city supply.

- If a fault or damage has been identified, the washer-dryer must be

examined by a competent person before further use, and repaired

if necessary.

 The water inlet pressure must be at least 100kPa and must not

exceed 1000kPa.

 Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-

ginal spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guaran-

tee the safety standards of the machine.

 If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced

by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from

danger.

 This washer-dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location

(e.g. on a ship).

Warning and Safety instructions

 Do not make any alterations to the washer-dryer, unless author-

ised to do so by Miele.

 Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-

ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with

the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is

possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system

complies with the specifications of EN50160 or an equivalent stand-

ard.

The function and operation of the protective measures provided in

the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must

also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not

synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must

be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described,

for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001–2 ISO

45001.

 The manufacturer’s warranty will be invalidated if the washer-dryer

is not repaired by a service technician authorised by Miele.

Correct use

 Do not install the washer-dryer 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 washer-dryer have been removed (see “Install-

ation - Removing the transit bars”). During spinning, a transit bar

which is still in place may result in damage to both the washer-dryer

and adjacent furniture or appliances.

 Turn off the stopcock if the washer-dryer 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 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.

 Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, pa-

per 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

 Do not leave any detergent dispensing aids, e.g. plastic dispenser

balls, in the laundry when tumble drying. These dispensers can melt

during the drying programme and cause damage to the washer-dryer

and the laundry.

 Risk of burning or scalding due to hot temperatures. The metal cap

located on the inside of the door glass will be hot after drying. Open

the door wide after drying. Do not touch the metal cap.

 If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the washer-dryer

should not need to be descaled. If, however, there is large build-up of

limescale and you need to descale it, you must use a special non-cor-

rosive descaling agent. A suitable descaling agent is available to order

from Miele (see “Optional accessories”). Instructions on the pack-

aging must be strictly observed.

 Take care when opening the drum door after using the steam func-

tion. Danger of burning due to escaping steam and the high temper-

ature 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.

 Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for

use in a domestic washing machine. These must only be used in do-

mestic quantities. Always observe the manufacturer's instructions

carefully.

 Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds which

can cause corrosion. Do not use these products in this washer-dryer.

 In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling

down phase to ensure that the items are not too hot to handle when

you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry self-ig-

niting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down phase

has been completed. As soon as the programme has finished, re-

move all laundry from the drum.

 To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried:

- Items which have not been washed.

- Items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly washed

and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other deposits (such as

cooking oil, cosmetics, lotions etc). If items have not been thor-

Warning and Safety instructions

oughly washed there is a danger that these might ignite when

heated, even after they have been removed from the washer-dryer

at the end of the programme.

- Items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with

inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of acetone,

alcohol, benzene, petrol, stain remover, turpentine, wax and wax

remover or other chemicals.

- Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail

varnish remover or similar substances.

When washing heavily soiled items ensure that you use sufficient

detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt, wash the

items several times.

 To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be tumble

dried:

- Items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional

dry-cleaning agents).

- Items which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or

rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex foam

rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles and

items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.

- Damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,

jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of it

igniting.

 Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according to

the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.

 Warning: do not switch the washer-dryer off before the drying pro-

gramme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be removed

immediately and hung up or spread out to cool it down.

 This washer-dryer must not be connected to a controllable socket,

e.g. a timer or electrical device with peak-load negotiation. There is a

risk of the laundry igniting itself if a drying programme is cancelled

before the cooling phase has finished.

 Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent based cleaning

agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed

in the machine.

Warning and Safety instructions

 Do not use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing

benzine, in this washer-dryer, as this may result in damage to com-

ponent parts and create toxic fumes. Such agents also pose a fire and

explosion hazard.

 If detergent comes into contact with the eyes, rinse them thor-

oughly with lukewarm water immediately. If swallowed, seek medical

assistance immediately and retain the packaging or label for refer-

ence. Those with skin problems or sensitive skin should avoid their

skin coming into contact with detergent.

 The maximum load for this washer-dryer is 8.0 kg (dry weight) for

washing and 5.0 kg (dry weight) for tumble drying. See the “Pro-

gramme chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual

programmes.

Accessories

 Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used, war-

ranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.

 If you order a plinth for this washer-dryer (available from Miele as

an optional accessory), make sure it is the correct one.

 Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a min-

imum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of

your washer-dryer.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance

with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Miele@home

Your washer-dryer is equipped with an

integrated WiFi module.

To use this feature, you will need:

- A WiFi network

- The Miele app

- A Miele user account. The user ac-

count can be created via the Miele

app

The Miele app will guide you as you

connect your washer-dryer to your

home WiFi network.

Once your washer-dryer is connected to

your WiFi network, you can use the app

to carry out the following activities, for

example:

- Controlling your washer-dryer re-

motely

- Calling up information on the operat-

ing status of your washer-dryer

- Calling up information on the pro-

gramme sequence of your washer-

dryer

Connecting your washer-dryer to your

Make sure there is sufficient signal

strength for your WiFi network at the

washer-dryer installation site.

Availability of the WiFi connection

The WiFi connection shares a frequency

range with other appliances (including

microwave ovens and remote control

toys). This can give rise to sporadic or

even complete connection failures.

Therefore, the availability of featured

functions cannot be guaranteed.

Miele@home availability

The ability to use the Miele app de-

Environmentally friendly washing and drying

Energy and water consumption

- Use the maximum load size for the

current programme. The energy and

water consumption will then be the

lowest in relation to the size of the

load.

- Programmes that are more efficient

with regard to energy and water con-

sumption generally have a longer pro-

gramme 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

ECO 40-60programme has a longer

running time than the Cottons40°C or

60°C programme. The ECO 40-60

programme is more efficient in terms

of energy and water consumption.

- Use the Express 20programme for

small, lightly soiled loads.

- Modern detergents make it possible

to wash at lower temperatures (e.g.

20°C). Using lower temperature set-

tings will save energy.

- To maintain the hygiene of the

washer-dryer, carry out a hot wash

(above 60°C) at regular intervals. The

message Hygiene info: Select "Mainten-

ance" and run the "Clean machine" pro-

gramme. will appear in the display of

the washer-dryer 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 deter-

gent recommended by the manufac-

turer on the packaging.

When drying with a tumble

dryer

To save energy when tumble drying, se-

lect the highest possible spin speed for

the wash programme and for the

thermo-spin.

WASHING

1. Prepare the laundry

 Empty all pockets.

 Damage due to foreign objects.

Nails, coins, paper clips, etc. can

cause damage to garments and com-

ponents inside the machine.

Check laundry before washing and

remove any foreign objects.

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

colours separately.

Pre-treating stains

 Badly soiled areas and stains should

be cleaned as soon as possible,

preferably whilst still fresh. Stains

should be carefully dabbed off using a

soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub.

 Damage due to solvent-based

cleaning agents.

Cleaning agents containing benzine,

stain remover, etc. can damage

plastic parts.

When pre-treating textiles, make sure

that plastic parts do not come into

contact with the 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 washer-dryer.

General tips

- Curtains: remove rollers and lead

weights or place in a laundry bag.

- Sew in or remove any loose underwir-

ing in bras.

- Close any zips, attach velcro fasten-

ers, fasten hooks and eyes, etc. be-

fore washing.

- Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases

to prevent small items from becoming

rolled up inside them.

Do not wash items which are specified

by the manufacturer as not washable

according to the symbol on the care la-

bel (symbol).

Opening the door

 Reach under the recessed grip and

pull the door open.

Check the drum for pets or foreign

objects before loading it with laundry.

 Unfold the laundry and load loosely

better wash results and also helps to

distribute the load evenly during spin-

ning.

The most efficient use of energy and

water consumption is achieved when a

full load is washed. However, do not

overload as this reduces cleaning effi-

ciency and causes creasing.

Tip: The maximum load size for the pro-

gramme selected will appear in the pull-

down menu.

Closing the door

 Make sure that no items are caught

between the door and the seal.

 Shut the door with a gentle swing.

WASHING

5. Add detergent

Detergent can be dispensed via

TwinDos, via the detergent dispenser

drawer or with Caps.

TwinDos

The washer-dryer has the TwinDos sys-

tem.

TwinDos must be activated; see “Be-

fore using for the first time”.

How UltraPhase1 and UltraPhase2

work

UltraPhase1 is a liquid detergent which

dissolves dirt and removes the most

common stains. UltraPhase2 is a

bleaching agent and removes stubborn

stains. For the best wash results, these

two agents are dispensed at separate

times during the washing process.

UltraPhase1 and UltraPhase2 clean

white and coloured fabrics thoroughly.

UltraPhase1 and UltraPhase2 single-

use cartridges are available from www

shop.miele.com or a Miele dealer.

Activating TwinDos dispensing

TwinDos dispensing is automatically ac-

tivated for all programmes in which dis-

pensing is possible.

Tip: The detergent dispensing quantities

are preset. If too much foam builds up,

the dispensing quantity can be reduced

via the Settings menu, Programme

sequence, TwinDos.

No visible soiling or stains

- Normal

Visibly soiled and/or just a few slight

stains

- Heavy

Heavily soiled and/or stains clearly

visible

The dispensing amount for TwinDos and

the amount of water required for rinsing

is preset for the Normal degree of

soiling.

 Touch the TwinDos sensor control to

select a different level of soiling.

The amount of detergent and water will

be adjusted to suit the selected degree

of soiling.

Some programmes will not let you set

grammes are designed for lightly soiled

laundry only.

Using other methods to remove stains

If you wish to use additional methods of

stain removal, you have the following

options:

WASHING

- Using the Booster capsule and activ-

ating CapDosing

- Adding stain remover to the com-

partment in the detergent drawer

 Detergent drawer

Any detergent suitable for domestic

washing machines can be used. Please

observe the instructions for use and

dosage on the detergent packaging.

Ensure that TwinDos dispensing is

deactivated.

Adding detergent

 Pull out the detergent drawer and add

detergents to the compartments.

 Detergent for the pre-wash

 Detergent for the main wash and

soaking





Fabric conditioner, liquid starch or

capsules

Using liquid detergents with a pre-

wash

Liquid detergent cannot be used for the

main wash if the pre-wash has been se-

lected.

Use powder detergent for the main

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

drawer.

WASHING

Adding fabric conditioner

 Add fabric conditioner or liquid starch

to the  compartment. Do not ex-

ceed the maximum level mark.

This will be automatically dispensed in

the final rinse cycle. At the end of the

wash programme a small amount of wa-

ter remains in the compartment.

If starching frequently, thoroughly

clean the detergent drawer, espe-

cially the siphon, regularly.

Tips on dispensing

Adjust the detergent dosage to the de-

gree of soiling of the laundry and the

load size. Reduce the amount of deter-

gent with smaller load sizes (e.g. reduce

the amount of detergent by ¹⁄₃ when

washing a half load).

Too little detergent:

- Results in laundry not being cleaned

properly and may cause it to become

grey and hard to the touch over time

- Can lead to a build-up of mould in the

washer-dryer

- Results in grease not being com-

pletely removed from the laundry

- Can lead to limescale deposits on the

heater elements

Too much detergent:

- Causes poor wash, rinse and spin res-

ults

- Causes higher water consumption as

an extra rinse cycle is automatically

activated

- Is a greater burden on the environ-

ment

See “Washing” – “Detergent” for fur-

ther information about detergents and

how much to dispense.

WASHING

 CapDosing

If you selected CapDosing when setting

the programme, detergent will be dis-

pensed via the capsule for this wash

programme.

Only one capsule can be selected per

wash programme.

3 different types of capsule are avail-

able:

 = Fabric care (e.g. fabric condi-

tioner, proofing agent)

 = Additives (e.g. detergent en-

hancer)

 = Detergent (for the main wash

only)

Each capsule contains the correct

amount for one wash cycle.

Caps are available from

www.shop.miele.com, the Miele Cus-

tomer Service Department or your

Miele dealer.

 Capsules pose a health risk.

The ingredients of capsules can be

hazardous to health if they are swal-

lowed or come into contact with skin.

Keep capsules out of the reach of

children.

Dispose of the capsule and do not re-

use it.

The wash programme will dispense the

contents of the capsule at the correct

time.

When using CapDosing, water intake

to the compartment takes place

solely via the capsule.

When using capsules, do not add

This washer-dryer has fully electronic

controls with automatic load control. It

takes in the right amount of water re-

quired for the programme depending on

the amount of laundry and its ab-

sorbency rate.

The programme sequences outlined are

based on the standard programme with

a full load.

The washer-dryer’s display continually

shows which programme stage has

been reached.

Special features in the programme se-

quence

Anti-crease:

At the end of the programme, the drum

continues to turn for up to 30minutes

to help prevent creasing.

Exception: there is no anti-crease phase

in the Woollens and Silks programmes.

The washer-dryer can be opened at any

time.

If a temperature of 60°C or higher is

selected, 2 rinses are carried out. If a

temperature of less than 60°C is se-

lected, 3 rinses are carried out.

An extra rinse is carried out if:

- There is too much foam in the drum

- The final spin speed is less than

700rpm

An extra rinse is carried out if:

- The Extra rinseExtra has been selec-

ted.

Pre-wash:

- A pre-wash is carried out automatic-

ally to remove dust.

Spin speed increase:

- A spin speed increase is carried out

before the wash process begins to de-

flate the filling.

WASHING

PowerWash

PowerWash is a washing technique de-

veloped by Miele which is activated in

the following wash programmes:

- ECO 40–60 (with small and medium

load sizes)

- Cottons (with small and medium load

sizes)

- QuickPower

- Minimum iron

- Shirts

- Automatic plus

- Delicates

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 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 energy consump-

tion.

Activation

PowerWash is activated automatically

in the programmes listed above.

PowerWash is deactivated if:

- The selected final spin speed is less

than 600rpm

- CapDosing has been selected for the

main wash (, )

- The wash temperature is higher than

60°C

- Extras such as Pre-wash or Water

plus have been selected

- A large load size is being washed in

the Cottons programme

Special features

- Drenching phase

The washer-dryer will spin a few

times at the beginning of the wash

programme. During the spin cycle,

the water discharged is sprayed back

into the laundry in order to achieve

optimum wetting.

The optimum water level is set at the

end of the drenching phase. If neces-

sary, the machine will pump water

away and 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.

WASHING

Extras

You can supplement the wash pro-

grammes with Extras.

Not all Extras can be selected with

every wash programme.

Selecting Extras

 Touch the Extrassensor control.

 Select one or more Extras.

Not all Extras can be combined. Extras

that cannot be combined are greyed

out and cannot be selected.

 Confirm with the OKsensor control.

The display will change to the standard

menu for that wash programme.

SingleWash

For efficiently washing a very small load

size (<1kg) in a normal wash pro-

gramme. The wash duration is reduced.

Please note the following advice:

- Use liquid detergent.

- Reduce the dosage to a maximum of

50% of the amount quoted for a

½load.

Extra gentle

Drum rotation and wash duration are re-

duced. Lightly soiled fabrics are washed

more gently.

Pre-ironing

In order to reduce creasing, the laundry

undergoes a smoothing process at the

end of the programme. Reducing the

maximum load size by 50% will

achieve a better result. Small load sizes

achieve a better result.

The garments must be suitable for dry-

ing in a tumble dryer  and suitable

for ironing .

The spin speed is reduced for some pro-

grammes.

Quick

For textiles with light soiling with no vis-

ible stains.

The duration of the main wash is re-

duced.

Water plus

The water level in the main wash and

the rinses will be increased. A second

rinse cycle is carried out in the Separate

rinseprogramme.

You can select other functions for the

Water plusExtra. These are described in

“Settings”.

Pre-wash

For laundry with large amounts of dirt,

e.g. dust and sand.

WASHING

Soak

For heavily soiled and stained items

with protein stains.

A soak duration of between 30minutes

and 5hours in 30-minute increments

can be selected. See “Settings” for

more information.

The factory default setting is

30minutes.

Intensive

For hard-wearing laundry that is very

heavily soiled. Cleaning efficiency is in-

creased through more intense mechan-

ical action and the application of more

heat energy.

AllergoWash

This option should be used where espe-

cially high standards of hygiene are re-

quired. More energy is used to lengthen

the temperature holding times and more

water is used to increase rinsing effi-

ciency. The items must be suitable for

drying in a tumble dryer and suit-

able for ironing.

Extra quiet

This option reduces noise levels during

the wash 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

running time is longer.

Rinse hold

The laundry is not spun after the final

rinse cycle and remains in the rinse wa-

ter. This helps prevent creasing if the

laundry is not going to be removed from

the drum immediately after the end of

the programme.

Extra rinse

An extra rinse can be activated to

achieve a better wash result.

WASHING

Detergent

All detergents produced for automatic

washing machines are suitable. Follow

the manufacturer's instructions and

dosage recommendations on the pack-

aging.

The dispensing quantity will depend

on:

- The degree of soiling of the laundry

- The amount of laundry

- The water hardness

Check with your local water supplier

if you do not know the water hard-

ness 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 spe-

cified on the packaging. First add deter-

gent and then the water softener.

You can then use the recommended

amount of detergent for water hardness

level I.

Dispensing aids

Use dispensing aids, (e.g. balls) if these

are supplied with the detergent, particu-

larly when using liquid detergent.

Refill packs of detergent

When purchasing detergent buy refill

packs wherever possible. This helps re-

duce the amount of waste packaging.

Fabric conditioners, liquid starch,

starch

Fabric conditioners make garments soft

to handle and help prevent static cling

when tumble drying.

Liquid starch is synthetic and provides

good stiffness to fabric.

Starch stiffens and gives body to fabric.

WASHING

Using fabric conditioner, liquid starch

or starch separately

Prepare the starch in accordance with

the manufacturer’s instructions on the

packaging.

Tip: When adding fabric conditioner, ac-

tivate the Water plus Extra.

 Add fabric conditioner to the com-

partment or insert the appropriate

capsule.

 Add liquid starch to the compart-

ment and powder or viscous starch to

the compartment.

 Select the Separate rinse programme.

 Change the spin speed if necessary.

 If using a capsule, touch the CapDos-

ingsensor control and activate the

Cap.

 Touch the Start/Stopsensor control.

Colour run and dye removers/dyes

 Damage due to colour run/dye

removers.

Colour run and dye removers can

cause corrosion in the washer-dryer.

Do not use colour run or dye re-

movers in this washer-dryer.

Dyes suitable for use in domestic wash-

ing machines can be used. However,

please note that the salt used in the

dyeing process can cause corrosion to

stainless steel components in the ma-

chine if you use dye frequently. Always

follow the dye manufacturer’s instruc-

tions carefully.

When using the machine to dye fab-

ric it is essential to select the Water

plus Extra.

DRYING

Separate drying

The separate drying programme

should be run if the load in the wash

programme is greater than the max-

imum load permitted for drying, or if

you only want to dry part of the load

that was washed.

1. Prepare the laundry

Sort the laundry

 Sort the laundry according to type of

fibre/weave and the residual moisture

content.

This will help you achieve an even drying

result.

 Before drying, check the drying sym-

bol on the care label.

If there is no care label, the article

should only be tumble dried in a pro-

gramme specially designed for it.

Tips on drying

- Do not load the drum with items that

are still soaking wet. Spin the laundry

for at least 30seconds after washing.

- Woollens and wool blends are sus-

ceptible to becoming matted or

shrinking. Only use the Woollens pro-

gramme for these textiles.

- Pure linen should only be tumble

dried if it is specified as suitable on

the care label. The surface of the fab-

ric may otherwise become rough.

- Jersey fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, under-

wear) tend to shrink when they are

washed for the first time. Therefore,

do not overdry the fabrics to prevent

them from shrinking further. Buy jer-

sey garments that are one or two

sizes bigger.

- Starched laundry can be tumble dried.

To achieve the usual finish, double the

amount of starch should be used.

- New dark coloured garments should

be washed and dried separately from

light coloured garments. The colour of

dark garments can run or fluff from

garments of other colours may settle

on them.

- Observe the maximum loads given for

the drying programmes in the Pro-

gramme chart.

The drying result and amount of

creasing depend on the size of the

load. The smaller the load in the dryer,

the better the result. Therefore, if you

reduce the load, you will achieve a

more even drying result with less

creasing.

Open the door

 Reach under the door grip and pull

the door open.

Check the drum for pets or foreign

objects before loading it with laundry.

 Load the laundry loosely in the drum.

textiles and affects drying results.

Observe the maximum loads given in

the “Programme chart”.

Close the door

 Make sure that no items are caught

between the door and the seal.

 Shut the door with a gentle swing.

Detergent dispensing aids, e.g.

plastic dispenser balls, can melt dur-

ing the drying programme and cause

damage to the machine and the laun-

dry.

DRYING

Thermospin

A thermospin is carried out in some dry-

ing programmes to reduce energy con-

sumption.

Thermospin is not carried out if timed

drying is selected.

The maximum spin speed for the ther-

mospin is the maximum permitted spin

speed for the appropriate wash pro-

gramme.

The thermospin spin speed can be re-

duced to 800rpm.

Extras

You can select extra options to augment

drying programmes.

Pre-ironing

In order to reduce creasing, the laundry

undergoes a smoothing process at the

end of the programme. The spin speed

for the thermospin is reduced. Reducing

the maximum load size by 50% will

achieve a better result.

The garments must be suitable for dry-

ing in a tumble dryer  and suitable

for ironing .

SingleDry

For efficiently drying a very small load

size (<1kg) in a normal drying pro-

gramme.

A drying time is preset. You can change

the drying time.

Some items may still be damp after dry-

ing, depending on the type of laundry.

Select a longer duration next time.

Gentle tumble

Delicate textiles such as acrylics are

dried gently (care label symbol).

In some programmes the programme

running time will increase when Gentle

tumble is selected because of the lower

temperature.

Extra quiet

If you want to dry clothes in quiet peri-

ods, the noise level of the washer-dryer

can be reduced.

- The buzzer is deactivated.

- Thermospin is limited to a maximum

of 800rpm.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the water intake filter

The washer-dryer has a filter to protect

the water intake valve. The filter at the

open end of the water inlet hose should

be checked approximately every

6months. Perform this check more of-

ten if there are frequent interruptions to

the external water supply.

 First turn off the stopcock.

 Unscrew the water inlet hose from

the stopcock.

Problem solving guide

General problems with the washer-dryer

Problem Cause and remedy

The washer-dryer is not

steady during a spin

cycle.

The machine feet are not level.

 Level the washer-dryer and secure the feet.

Unusual pumping

noises.

This is not a fault. These slurping noises occur at the

end of the pump sequence as a normal part of opera-

tion.

Spinning sounds during

the drying process.

This is not a fault. The machine will spin, even during a

drying programme (thermospin).

The laundry has not

been spun properly and

the laundry is still wet.

The machine detected an imbalance during the final

spin cycle and reduced the spin speed automatically.

 Include both large and small items in the load as this

will give better distribution during spinning.

Large amounts of deter-

gent residue remain in

the detergent drawer.

The water flow pressure is too low.

 Clean the filters in the water inlet.

 Select Water plus.

Powder detergent used in conjunction with water

softeners tends to become sticky.

 Clean the detergent drawer and, in the future, add

washing powder in the compartment first, and then

add the water softener.

There is water in the fab-

ric conditioner compart-

ment next to the cap-

sule.

CapDosing was not activated or an empty capsule was

not removed at the end of the last wash programme.

Problem solving guide

General problems with the washer-dryer

Problem Cause and remedy

Foam comes out of the

detergent dispenser

drawer while the Rinse

out fluff programme is

running.

Residual detergent from the last programme is still

present in the suds container.

 Always dispense the correct amount of detergent.

Where possible select automatic dispensing.

There is foam in the

drum at the end of the

Rinse out fluff pro-

gramme.

The Rinse out fluff programme also rinses out residual

detergent from the suds container. This can lead to

the formation of foam.

 Run the Rinse out fluff programme regularly to pre-

vent detergent residues from accumulating in the

suds container.

There is still fluff in the

drum after the end of the

Rinse out fluff pro-

gramme.

You have not run the Rinse out fluff programme for a

long time.

 Remove the fluff from the drum.

 Run the Rinse out fluff programme on a regular

basis.

The washer-dryer

smells.

Hygiene info was ignored. A wash programme using a

temperature above 60°C has not been run for a long

time.

 In order to prevent bacteria and unpleasant odours

building up in the machine, run the Clean machine

programme using the Miele dishwasher and wash-

ing machine cleaner or powder detergent.

The door and the detergent dispenser drawer were left

open after washing.

 Leave the door and the detergent dispenser drawer

slightly open to allow them to dry.

Problem solving guide

An unsatisfactory wash result

Problem Cause and remedy

White residues which

look like powder deter-

gent 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.

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 addi-

tion of UltraPhase 2 during the wash process re-

moves 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 de-

tergent.

Problem solving guide

Unsatisfactory drying results

Problem Cause and remedy

The laundry is too damp

after drying and

Check load appears in the

display.

The load is too small. The electronics could not assess

the residual moisture correctly.

 Start the programme again and instead of a drying

level select a Timed drying programme.

 In the future use a Timed drying programme for

small amounts of laundry.

During the spin cycle, the laundry formed a ring in the

drum because the laundry was distributed unevenly.

The laundry formed a ring during the thermospin be-

cause it was too damp or because the spin speed was

set too high.

 Open the door and loosen the laundry.

 Start the drying programme again with a lower spin

speed, or select Timed drying instead of a drying

level.

The laundry feels damp

after drying.

The Pre-ironing Extra was selected.

 Unload the laundry and place it on hangers to finish

drying.

Warm laundry can feel damp.

 Spread the laundry out to cool it down.

The laundry is too damp

or too dry after a drying

cycle.

The desired residual moisture level is between two

drying stages.

 Change the level of drying as described in “Set-

tings”, “Drying levels”.

There is still water in the

drum after drying.

There is a blockage in the water outlet.

 Clean the drain filters and the drain pumps as de-

scribed in “Opening the door in the event of a

blocked drain outlet and/or power failure” and check

the height of the drainage point.

Problem solving guide

The door will not open

Problem Cause and remedy

The door cannot be

opened during a pro-

gramme sequence.

The door is locked during a programme sequence.

 Follow the instructions in “Washing” – “6. Starting

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable in-

stallation surface. It is far less prone to

vibration during the spin cycle than

wooden floorboards or a carpeted sur-

face.

Please note:

 The washer-dryer must be level and

securely positioned.

 To avoid vibrations during spinning,

the washer-dryer must not be in-

stalled on soft floor coverings.

If installing on a wooden joist floor,

please note:

 Use a plywood base underneath the

washer-dryer (at least

59x52x3cm). The base must span

several joists and be bolted to the

joists and not only to the floorboards.

Tip: If possible, install the washer-dryer

in a corner of the room, as this is usually

the most stable part of the floor.

 Danger of injury due to unse-

cured washer-dryer.

If the washer-dryer is installed on an

existing on-site plinth (concrete or

brick), there is a danger of the ma-

chine falling off the plinth during the

spin cycle.

Secure the washer-dryer with a

fastening bracket (optional access-

ory).

Carrying the washer-dryer to its

installation site

 Danger of injury due to unse-

cured lid.

The fixings at the back of the lid

could break as a result of external

forces. There is a danger of the lid be-

ing pulled off when carrying the ma-

chine.

Before carrying the machine, check

that the lid is secure where it pro-

trudes at the back of the machine.

 Carry the washer-dryer by the front

feet and by the lid where it protrudes

at the back of the machine.

you lift the drum slightly.

Installing under a worktop

Building under kits* must only be in-

stalled/dismantled by a specialist.

- A special building under kit* is re-

quired. The cover plate included in the

building under kit* replaces the lid of

the washer-dryer. It is necessary to fit

the cover plate for electrical safety

reasons.

- Connections for electricity, water and

drainage should be installed in such a

way that they remain accessible when

the washer-dryer is in its final posi-

tion.

The building under kit includes installa-

tion instructions.

* Optional accessories

Installation

*INSTALLATION*

Aligning the washer-dryer

The washer-dryer must stand perfectly

level on all four feet to ensure safe and

proper operation.

Incorrect installation may increase elec-

tricity and water consumption and may

cause the washer-dryer to move about.

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

The 4 adjustable feet are used to level

the washer-dryer. The appliance is sup-

plied with all feet screwed in.

 Using the open 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 the washer-

dryer is standing level.

 Hold foot 1 securely with a pipe

wrench. Turn counter nut 2 again us-

ing the open spanner supplied until it

sits firmly up against the casing.

 Risk of damage from incorrectly

aligned washer-dryer.

There is a danger of the washer-dryer

moving about if the feet are not se-

cured.

The water protection system

The Miele water protection system pro-

tects all parts of the washer-dryer from

water damage.

The system mainly consists of the fol-

lowing components:

- the inlet hose

- the electronic unit and drainage and

overflow protection

- the drain hose

Inlet hose

- Protects the safety valve from burst-

ing

The inlet hose can withstand pres-

sure greater than 14,000kPa.

- The inlet hose has a protective sleeve.

The inlet hose has metal braiding as a

“second skin” to protect against dam-

age.

Electronic unit and casing

- The floor tray

Any leaking water is collected in a

floor tray in the base of the washer-

dryer. A float switches off the water

inlet valves. Further water intake is

blocked. The water inside the suds

container is pumped down.

- Overflow protection

This prevents the washer-dryer from

taking in too much water and over-

flowing. If the water level exceeds a

certain level, the drain pump

switches on and pumps the excess

water away.

Drain hose

The drain hose is protected by a ventila-

tion system which prevents the washer-

dryer from being emptied completely.

Water intake

 Health risk and risk of damage

due to contaminated incoming water.

The quality of the incoming water

must correspond to the drinking wa-

ter specification of the country in

which the machine is being operated.

Always connect the washing machine

to the mains water supply.

The washer-dryer is not required to have

a non-return valve connected to the

mains water supply as the washing ma-

chine has been designed to comply with

DIN regulations in Germany.

The water inlet pressure must be at

least 100kPa and must not exceed an

overpressure of 1000kPa. If the pres-

sure exceeds 1000kPa, a pressure re-

ducing valve must be installed.

Connection to the mains water supply

should incorporate a stopcock with a

¾" screw thread. If no stopcock is

available, only a qualified installer may

connect the washer-dryer to the mains

water supply.

The connection point is subject to

mains water pressure.

You should open the stopcock slowly

and check for leaks. Correct the posi-

tion of the seal and screw thread if

water escapes.

The washer-dryer is not suitable for

connection to a hot water supply.

Installation

*INSTALLATION*

101

Maintenance

Only use a genuine Miele hose that has

been pressure tested to withstand at

least 14,000kPa should you ever need

a replacement.

The dirt filter in the union nut at the

open end of the water protects the

water intake valve.

This filter must not be removed.

Hose extension

A 1.5metre long metal extension hose is

available from Miele as an optional ac-

cessory.

Installation

*INSTALLATION*

102

Water drainage

The suds are drained through a drain

pump with a 1m delivery head. For the

water to drain freely, the hose must be

free of kinks. The elbow piece supplied

hooks onto the end of the hose. If re-

quired, the hose can be extended to a

length of up to 5m. Accessories are

available from Miele or from 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 con-

tact Miele for advice. With a delivery

head in excess of 1m the hose can be

extended to a maximum of 2.5m. Ac-

cessories are available from Miele or

from your Miele dealer.

Drainage options:

1. Directed into a sink or basin:

Please note:

– Hook the hose over the edge and

secure it.

– If the water is pumped into a

washbasin, make sure that it can

drain away freely. 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 siphon).

3. Connected securely to a floor drain

(gully).

4. Connected securely to a washbasin

with a plastic nipple.

*INSTALLATION*

103

Electrical connection

The washer-dryer is supplied with a

mains cable with moulded plug ready

for connection to a suitable earthed

socket.

The socket must be easily accessible

after the washer-dryer has been in-

stalled. If that is not possible, ensure

that a suitable means of disconnection

is provided on the installation side for

each pole.

 Risk of fire from overheating.

Connecting the washer-dryer to a

multi-socket adapter or to an exten-

sion lead can overload the cable.

For safety reasons, do not use an ex-

tension lead or multi-socket adapter.

The electrical system must comply with

local and national safety regulations

(BS7671 in the UK). We recommend

the use of a suitable RCD.

If the mains connection cable is dam-

aged, it must only be replaced with a

specific mains connection cable of the

same type (available from the Miele

Customer Service Department). For

safety reasons, such replacement may

only be carried out by a qualified techni-

cian or the Miele Customer Service De-

partment.

These operating instructions and the

data plate indicate the nominal power

consumption and the appropriate fuse

rating. Compare this information with

the data of the on-site electrical con-

nection.

If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-

trician.

Temporary or permanent operation on

an autonomous power supply system or

a power supply system that is not syn-

chronised with the mains power supply

(e.g. island networks, back-up systems)

is possible. A prerequisite for operation

is that the power supply system com-

plies with the specifications of

EN50160 or an equivalent standard.

The function and operation of the pro-

tective measures provided in the do-

mestic electrical installation and in this

Miele product must also be maintained

in isolated operation or in operation that

is not synchronised with the mains

power supply, or these measures must

be replaced by equivalent measures in

the installation. As described, for ex-

ample, in the current version of BS OH-

SAS 18001–2 ISO 45001.

and a water inlet fault message will ap-

pear.

sure is switched on.

Suds cooling

Additional water flows into the drum at

the end of the main wash to cool the

suds down.

Suds cooling takes place when a Cot-

tons programme with a temperature of

70°C or higher is selected.
