Correct use
~
Do not install your washer-dryer in rooms where temperatures
below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The
reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at
temperatures below freezing point.
~
Before using the washer-dryer for the first time, check that the
transit bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see
"Installation and connection - Removing the transit bars"). During
spinning, a transit fitting 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 that 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,
paper clips) do not find their way into the washer-dryer 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.
~
If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the washer-dryer
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. A special
descaling agent is available to order from Miele. Follow the
instructions for use on the packaging carefully.
