Quality – 'Made in Germany'
A strong brand. Made in Germany.
Choice materials and top-notch
workmanship guarantees smooth running
properties, low sound emissions and a
highly durable product. All Miele laundry
machines are subjected to intense scrutiny
in quality tests to ensure the satisfaction of
users.
• Designed, built and tested to last 30,000
operating hours (more than 17 years
based on 8 hours per day and 220 working
days per year)
• 60,000-cycle door system endurance test
(opening/closing/locking/unlocking)
• 30,000-cycle detergent dispenser flap test
(opening/closing)
• 100,000 operations of On/Off switch
• 1000-hour wash test at 60°C and 95°C
with varying loads
• 10,000-hour circuit board test under
extreme load conditions
• 30,000-hour non-stop endurance test of
fan cooling electronic components
• Extreme test regime covering drum
assembly, suspension springs and motor

Each and every machine is subjected to
an end-of-line test prior to shipment. The
results of this inspection are archived and
include the following:
• Earth conductor continuity test
• Imbalance test
• High-voltage test
• Water and heating type check
A washer-extractor is only approved for
shipment once these tests have been
passed with flying colours.
