General problems with the washer-dryer
Problem
Cause and remedy
Foam comes out of the
detergent dispenser
drawer while the
Rinse
out fluff
programme is
running.
Residual detergent from the last programme is still
present in the suds container.
Make sure you dispense the correct amount of de-
tergent.
Follow the dispensing recommendations on the
packaging.
There is foam in the
drum at the end of the
Rinse out fluff
pro-
gramme.
The
Rinse out fluff programme
also rinses out resid-
ual detergent from the suds container. This can lead
to the formation of foam.
Run the
Rinse out fluff
programme regularly to pre-
vent detergent residues from accumulating in the
suds container.
There is still fluff in the
drum after the end of
the
Rinse out fluff
pro-
gramme.
You have not run the
Rinse out fluff
programme for a
long time.
Remove the fluff from the drum.
Run the
Rinse out fluff
programme on a regular
basis.
The washer-dryer
smells.
The
indicator light was ignored. A wash programme
using a temperature above 60 °C has not been run
for a long time.
In order to prevent bacteria and unpleasant odours
building up in the washer-dryer, run the
Cottons
90 °C
programme using the Miele machine cleaner
or multi-purpose powder detergent.
The door and the detergent drawer were closed after
washing.
Leave the door and the detergent drawer slightly
open to allow them to dry.
