Before Using For The First Time - Miele W 149 Operating Instructions Manual

Before using the machine for the first
time ensure that it is correctly in-
stalled and connected. See the rele-
vant section under "Installation".
Also check that the fluff filter is se-
curely tightened. Otherwise there is
a risk of water leakage during use.
For safety reasons spinning is not pos-
sible until the machine has been pre-
pared for using for the first time. To acti-
vate the spinning function you must run
a wash programme without any laundry
and without detergent.
Using detergent could result in an ex-
cessive build-up of foam.
This also activates the ball valve. The
ball valve prevents detergent escaping
from the suds container into the sump
during a wash programme, thus making
maximum use of the detergent.
^ Turn on the stopcock.
^ Press the I-ON/0-OFF button in.
^ Turn the programme selector to
COTTONS 40°C.
^ Press the START button.
When this programme has finished turn
the programme selector to "Finish". Your
washing machine is ready for using for
the first time.
