Program sequence
PowerWash
PowerWash is a washing technique
developed by Miele. It is activated in
the following programs:
- Normal (with small and medium load
sizes)
- Wrinkle-free
- Dress Shirts
- Delicates
How it works
Conventional washing techniques wash
with more water than the laundry can
absorb. This total volume of water
needs to be heated.
The PowerWash washing technique
only uses slightly more water than the
laundry can absorb. The water which
has not been absorbed by the laundry
heats up the drum and the laundry and
is sprayed into the laundry over and
over again. This reduces energy
consumption.

Special features
- Drenching phase
The washing machine will spin a few
times at the beginning of the
program. During spinning, the water
discharged is sprayed back into the
laundry in order to achieve optimum
moisture penetration.
The optimum water level is set at the
end of the drenching phase. If
necessary, the washing machine will
pump water away or take in a little
more fresh water
- Noises during the heating phase
Unusual bubbling noises can occur
while the laundry and the drum are
being heated.
