Miele W 340 Washer User Manual


 
Water consumption and energy us
-
age are determined by the size of the
load. Load to the maximum recom
-
mended for the programme selected.
To save energy wash normally and
lightly soiled laundry at lower tem
-
peratures. The 95°C Cottons
programme is probably only needed
in exceptional circumstances, e.g.
for oil based stains or where a very
hot wash is required.
Use the
Mixed wash
or the
Quick
wash
programme for smaller
amounts of laundry.
A main wash (programme without
pre-wash) is sufficient for cleaning
normally soiled laundry.
By using the additional option
Soak
for heavily soiled laundry you can se-
lect a lower temperature in the main
wash.
Use the additional option
Soak
in-
stead of
Pre-wash
with heavily soiled
laundry.
If
Soak
is followed immediately by a
main wash the same suds are used.
Use the
Short
wash option for nor
-
mally or very lightly soiled laundry.
Do not exceed the amounts of deter
-
gent which may be recommended by
the manufacturer on the packaging.
Reduce the amounts of detergent
with smaller loads, (e.g. with a half
load, approx. one third less deter
-
gent).
Select the highest suitable spin
speed in the wash programme when
tumble drying afterwards.
Load recognition and automatic rins
-
ing can cause the duration of a
programme to vary greatly. The main
wash may be shortened and a rinse
cycle omitted depending on the
amount of laundry.
