Washing white laundry
To prevent greying, do not mix white laundry
with dark garments or light-coloured items
with dark appliques, trim etc. Use an all-
purpose detergent containing oxygen-based
bleaching agents and optical brighteners
(e.g. Miele UltraWhite powder detergent).
Dispense the detergent following the
manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging
for the water hardness level in your area and
according to the soiling level of the laundry.
If the laundry is heavily soiled, select the
maximum temperature given on the garment
care label. For very stubborn stains, use
an all-purpose detergent with added stain
removers.
Washing coloured laundry
Coloured laundry can run at too high a
wash temperature so always observe the
manufacturer’s recommendation given on
the garment care label and turn the garment
inside out before washing. We recommend
Miele UltraColor detergent.
Preparing the laundry correctly
Sort the laundry according to colour and the
garment care label. In general, garments
should be turned inside out before washing.
Do up buttons, fasten any hooks and eyes
and close zips as these have sharp edges. If
in doubt, use a net washing bag.
