Load Size Indicator - Miele W 487 WPS 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 activate 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.

each of the first few wash cycles.
