Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing is mostly manufactured from the following recycled or recyclable materials:

corrugated paper/cardboard

CFC free polystyrene

polystyrene foil (transparent)

Untreated wood

Polypropylene (PP) strapping

Rather than throwing these materials away, please take them to your commu- nity recycling center.

Disposal of an old appliance

Old appliances contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your local recycling center about the possi- bility of recycling these materials.

Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it from the outlet and cut off its power cord and remove any doors to prevent it from becoming a hazard.

Before using the first time

Since all Miele washing machines are tested for proper operation before leav- ing the factory, some residual water may be left inside.

As this water is not visible, we recom- mend you perform the following steps before you use your new machine for the first time, or if it has been in storage for more than a few weeks between uses.

^Do not put any laundry in the ma- chine.

^Add a small amount of detergent to compartment j.

^Turn "On" the machine.

^Press the "Rapid wash" button.

^Turn the dial to "COTTONS 140°F".

The machine will start to run and will flush out any residual water that may be inside.
