TwinDos maintenance
Damage resulting from dried
laundry detergent.
If the system has not been used for a
long time (more than two months),
detergent in the hoses can become
viscous or dry out. The hoses can
become blocked and would then
need to be cleaned by a service
technician.
Clean the TwinDos system.
To clean the system, you need a
“TwinDosCare” cleaning cartridge,
which is available
from www.shop.miele.com.
The washing machine has a cleaning
programme for the TwinDos system.
Running the cleaning programme will
clean the hoses inside the washing ma-
chine.
