Miele W 487 WPS Washer User Manual


 
Before using the machine for the first
time ensure that it is correctly
installed and connected. See the
relevant section under "Installation".
Also check that the fluff filter is
securely tightened. Otherwise there
is a risk of water leakage during use.
For safety reasons spinning is not
possible until the machine has been
prepared 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
excessive 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.
If the sensor is not calibrated to zero
then the values displayed by the
washing machine will be incorrect.
