ɉBefore using the machine for the first
time, ensure that it is correctly installed
and connected. Please read the separate
operating instructions supplied with the
appliance.
For safety reasons, spinning is not possible
until the machine has been prepared for use
for the first time. To activate the spinning
function, you must run a wash programme
without laundry and without detergent.
Using detergent could result in an exces-
sive build-up of foam.
This also activates the ball valve. The ball
valve prevents detergent escaping from the
suds container into the sump during a wash
programme, thus making maximum use of
the detergent.
Running the first programme
ĺ Turn on the tap.
ĺ Turn the programme selector to Cottons.
The washing machine is now switched on
and in the control panel, the temperature
60°C lights up.
ĺ Touch the Start/Stop sensor.
The programme will start and the symbol
lights up in the control panel.
After the end of the programme
The symbol lights up in the control panel;
: appears in the time display and the

Note: For safety reasons close the door.
Washing environmentally and economically
To make the most out of your machine,
load the maximum dry load for the pro-
gramme 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 enable washing at
reduced temperatures (e.g. 20°C). Use
appropriate temperature settings for
saving energy.
Reduce the amount of detergent with
smaller loads (approx. ⅓ less than the
amount recommended can be used
when washing a half load).
Selecting the highest possible spin
speed for the wash programme will
save energy when drying in a tumble
dryer afterwards.
1. Preparing the laundry
ĺ Empty all pockets.
ɉForeign objects (e.g. nails,
coins, paper clips, etc.) can
cause damage to garments and
components in the machine.
ĺ Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most gar-
ments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam.
ĺ Pre-treat stains and badly soiled areas (see the booklet
"Miele's guide to laundry care").
2. Loading the washing machine
Opening the door
ĺ Reach under the door grip and
pull the door open.
ĺ Unfold the laundry and load
loosely in the drum.
Closing the door
ĺ Make sure that no items are
caught between the door and
the seal.
ĺ Shut the door with a gentle
swing.
