Optimal usage

The key to good wash results is finding the correct combination of detergent and temperature, and then allowing the washing machine to optimize their us- age through its programming. Program lengths can vary for this reason.

The fully electronic controls offer a com- bination of simple operation with many optional features. For instance, since a main wash generally gives good results for a normal load, the pre-wash cycle has been made a user selectable op- tion, saving time,water and energy over older full cycle machines.

With the “Hydromatic” system, the drum can revolve at various speeds. Faster and slower agitation speeds along with pauses for soaking, combine to ensure excellent wash results.

The automatic load control feature en- sures the correct water level for the type of fabric and load being washed (even though it may appear as if there is too little water in the drum!).

Operational noise, no matter what pro- gram is selected, is minimized through the use of an accurately balanced drum and special sound insulation.

Economy

To conserve energy, remember the fol- lowing tips:

–The automatic load control feature will adjust the water level for loads up to 11 lbs (5kg). Washing with the maximum load specified for each program saves water and energy.

–Use the correct amount of detergent required for the water hardness in your area.

–Miele recommends the use of pow- der detergents, as their characteris- tics allow them to perform better in this machine than liquid detergents.

If the wash is not heavily stained, select a lower temperature than indicated on the wash care label.
