1. Prepare the laundry
17
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 such foreign ob-
jects.
Sort the laundry
Only wash items that are labeled ma-
chine washable by the manufacturer.
Most garments have a fabric care label
in the collar or side seam.
Sort the laundry by care label and
color.
Tip: Dark fabrics often bleed the first
few times they are washed. They should
be washed separately several times be-
fore being included in a mixed load.
Pre-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains should
be cleaned as soon as possible,
preferably while still fresh. Stains
should be carefully dabbed off using
a soft, colorfast cloth. Do not rub!
Tip: Stains (such as blood, egg, coffee,
and tea) can be pre-treated using some
handy tricks which can be found in the
Miele guide to laundry care. Please
contact Miele directly or submit a re-
quest via Internet page to obtain or
view a copy of this manual.
Damage due to solvent-based
cleaning agents
Cleaning agents containing benzine,
stain remover, etc., can damage
plastic parts.
When pre-treating a stain, make sure
that plastic parts do not come into
contact with cleaning agents.
Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based cleaning agents.
When using solvent-based cleaning
agents, an explosive mixture may
develop.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in the washing machine.
General tips
– Curtains: Remove any lead weights
or strips before washing.
– Loose bra underwires should be re-
moved or sewn in place before wash-
ing.
– Close zippers, hooks and eyelets be-
fore washing.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened to prevent small
items from rolling inside of them.
Do not wash items with the sym-
bol on the fabric care label.
