Soak duration
You can set a duration for the soak
process of between 30 minutes and
5 hours.
A duration can be selected in 30-minute
increments. When the
Soak
option is
selected, the laundry will be soaked for
the duration selected.
Gentle action
With gentle action activated, drum
agitation is reduced. In this way, lightly
soiled items can be washed more
gently.
Gentle action can be activated for the
Cottons
and the
Minimum iron
programmes.
If Gentle action is activated, each wash
phase in the programme selected will
be run with the gentle action wash
rhythm.
Factory default setting: Gentle action is
switched off.
Temperature reduction
At high altitudes water has a lower
boiling point. Miele recommends
activating the
temperature reduction
setting at altitudes of 2000 m or above
to prevent water from boiling. The
maximum temperature is reduced to
80°C even if a higher temperature is
selected.
Factory default setting: the
temperature
reduction
setting is switched off.
