Water Intake; Longer Pre-Wash Cottons; Soak Duration; Gentle Action - Miele WMV 960 WPS Operating Instructions Manual

Settings

Water intake

You can choose between cold water
and hot water intake.
Options
– Cold water (default)
The washing machine will be
operated with cold mains water only.
– Hot water main wash
To save energy, hot water will be
used during the main wash if a
temperature of 30°C or higher is
selected. To be more energy efficient,
you can heat up your water with
cheaper, energy-saving options, e.g.
gas, solar power, oil. The temperature
has to be below 60°C.
– Hot MW + Rinses
Hot water is used in the main wash
and during rinses. Rinsing with hot
water can reduce water consumption
by approx. 10%.

For technical reasons, the
washing machine must always be
connected to cold mains water.
