Empty all pockets.
Damage due to foreign objects.
Nails, coins, paper clips, and so on
can cause damage to garments and
components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing
and remove any foreign objects.
Sorting the laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by
care label. Most garments have a
textile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Useful tip: Dark textiles often contain
excess dye and should be washed
separately several times before being
included in a mixed load. Always wash
white and coloured items separately.
Pre-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains should
be cleaned as soon as possible,
preferably whilst still fresh. Spillages
should be carefully dabbed off using
a soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub.
Useful tip: Please refer to the Miele
website or Miele@mobile App for more
information on stain removal.
1. Preparing the laundry
Damage due to solvent-based
cleaning agents.
Cleaning agents containing benzine,
stain remover, etc., can damage
plastic parts.
When pre-treating garments, make
sure that any plastic parts (e.g.
buttons) do not come into contact
with cleaning agent.
Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based cleaning agents.
If solvent-based cleaning agents are
used, an explosive mixture can form.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in the washing machine.
General tips
- Curtains: remove lead weights first or
place in a laundry bag.
- Remove or sew in any loose
underwiring in bras or shirt collar
stiffeners.
- Close any zips, attach velcro
fasteners, fasten hooks and eyes etc.
before washing.
- Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from being
rolled up inside them.
Do not wash items which are specified
by the manufacturer as not washable
on the care label ( symbol).
