Cleaning and Care

,Before cleaning the appliance, disconnect the power supply by unplugging the unit or manually tripping the circuit breaker.

Cleaning the washer

^Clean the exterior of the washer with a mild solution of non-abrasive detergent or soap and water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

^Clean the drum with a stainless steel cleaner specially formulated for use in a washing machine. This type of cleaner is available from Miele.

Cleaning the drum

Miele suggests running a "maintenance cycle" approx. once a month to ensure that your washing machine remains clean and free of any soil buildup or odors.

^Do not add laundry to the drum.

^Select the "Sanitize" program.

^Add a 1/4 cup of detergent to the respective compartment (if desired).

^Run the program as normal through to completion.

Desclaing the washer

If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine should not need to be descaled.

If the washer needs to be descaled, use a descaling agent with corrosion protection. These special descaling agents can be purchased from Miele. Use as directed on the packaging.
