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 either need a
“TwinDosCare” cleaning cartridge
(only available in selected countries) or
an empty TwinDos container. Both are
available from the Miele online shop.
The washing machine has a cleaning
programme for the TwinDos system.
Running the cleaning programme will
clean the hoses inside the washing ma-
chine.

Scroll to the second page in the main

This cleans the hoses. The TwinDos

Detergent residue can cause clogging.
Use a damp cloth to clean the com-
partment interior when you change
the cartridge or container.
