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.
Always dispense the correct amount of detergent.
Where possible select automatic dispensing.
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.
Hygiene info 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 machine, run the
Clean machine
programme using the Miele dishwasher and wash-
ing machine cleaner or powder detergent.
The door and the detergent dispenser drawer were
left open after washing.
Leave the door and the detergent dispenser
drawer slightly open to allow them to dry.
