If the correct amount of detergent
is dispensed, the machine should
not need to be descaled. If, however,
you do wish to descale the machine
only use proprietary non-corrosive
descaling agents and strictly observe
the manufacturer’s instructions given on
the packaging. Consult the Miele Cus-
tomer Service Department if necessary.
Textiles which have been pre-
treated in solvent-based cleaning
agents must be thoroughly rinsed in
clean water before being washed in the
machine.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in this machine, as this may
result in damage to component parts
and create toxic fumes. Such deter-
gents also pose a fire and explosion
hazard.
Only use dyes specified by the
manufacturer as being suitable for
use in a washing machine. Always ob-
serve the manufacturer’s instructions
carefully.
Colour run and dye removers may
contain sulphur compounds which
cause damage such as corrosion. Do
not use these products in this machine.
Always make sure the drum is sta-
tionary before reaching in to re-
move laundry. Reaching into a moving
drum is extremely dangerous.
Accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele.
If other parts are used, guarantee, per-
formance and product liability claims
may be invalidated.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine
unplug it. Render the plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the ap-
pliance to prevent misuse.
