Economical usage
The key to good wash results is finding
the correct combination of detergent
and temperature, and then allowing the
washing machine to optimize their
usage through its programming. Pro-
gramme lengths can vary for this rea-
son.
With the “Hydromatic” system, the
drum can revolve at various speeds.
Faster and slower agitation speeds,
along with pauses for soaking, com-
bine to ensure excellent results.
The automatic load control feature en-
sures the correct water level for the
type of fabric and load being washed
(even though it may appear as if there
is too little water in the drum!).
Because of the accurately balanced
drum and special sound insulation, ma-
chine noise is minimal while operating.
The fully electronic controls offer a com-
bination of simple operation with many
optional features.
For instance, since a main wash gener-
ally gives good results for a normal
load, the pre-wash cycle has been
made a user selectable option, saving
time,water and energy over older full
cycle machines.
Economy
For optimum economical usage, re-
member the following tips:
– The automatic load control feature
will adjust the water level for loads
between 1 and 5 kg. However, if
possible, load the machine to its
maximum capacity in order to use
water and energy to the best advant-
age.
– Use only the correct amount of deter-
gent required for the water hardness
in your area. Miele recommends the
use of low-sudsing detergents, as
their characteristics allow them to
perform better in front-loading ma-
chine than regular powder or liquid
detergents.
If the wash is not heavily stained, select
a lower temperature than indicated on
the wash care label.
