For machines with a 'porthole' door,
remember that the porthole glass will
be hot when washing at very high
temperatures.
Do not let children touch it during a hot
wash programme.
If the correct amount of detergent is
dispensed, the machine should not
need to be descaled. If, however, you do
wish to descale the machine only use
proprietary non-corrosive descaling
agents and strictly observe the
instructions on the packaging. If in doubt
contact the Miele Customer Service Dept.
or your Miele Dealer.
Never use solvent based cleaning
agents in this machine, as this may
result in damage to component parts and
create toxic fumes. Such detergents also
pose a fire and explosion hazard.
Textiles which have been pre-treated
in solvent based cleaning agents
must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water
before being washed in the machine.
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.
There is a danger of fire during
drying with fabrics which:
–
contain rubber, foam rubber or rubber
like materials
–
have been treated with inflammable
cleaning agents
–
have been splashed with hair lacquer,
hair spray, nail varnish remover or
similar substances
–
which contain padding or fillings (e.g.
pillows, jackets). If these were
damaged, the filling could get out with
the risk of igniting in the dryer.
Make sure that any dispensing balls
etc. are removed from laundry
before the drying programme. These
dispensers can melt during the drying
programme and cause damage to the
machine and the laundry. Do not use
liquid dispenser balls or similar if you are
planning to wash and then dry in one
continuous sequence.
This appliance is not intended for
use by young children or infirm
persons unless they have been
adequately supervised by a responsible
person to ensure that they can use the
appliance safely.
Young children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele.
If other parts are used, guarantee,
performance and product liability claims
may be invalidated.
Disposal of your old machine
Disconnect and remove the mains plug
from the socket. Render the plug useless.

appliance to prevent misuse.
