Miele W 5964 WP - Manual (Page 75)

Gentle action
Activating gentle action reduces the
drum action and is suitable for
washing slightly soiled items more
gently. It should be activated for
garments with a single bar under the
care label and for articles which feel
too hard after they have been dried.
Gentle action can be activated for the
Cottons and the Minimum iron
programmes.
The machine is delivered with the
Gentle action setting deactivated.
The option which is currently set will
have a tick
L beside it.
Longer pre-wash Cottons
The pre-wash for the Cottons
programme can be extended by 6, 9
or 12 minutes.
The default setting for the pre-wash is
25 minutes.
If you require a longer pre-wash, it can
be extended.
The option which is currently set will
have a tick
L beside it.
Suds cooling
When this is activated, additional
water flows into the drum at the end
of the main wash to cool the suds
down. Hot suds can damage plastic
drainage pipes.
Suds cooling takes place when
temperatures of 95°C and 75°C are
selected.
Suds cooling should be activated:
– to prevent the danger of scalding if
the drain hose is hooked over the
edge of a sink or basin.
– where the drainage pipes do not
comply with DIN 1986.
The machine is delivered with Suds
cooling deactivated.
The option which is currently set will
have a tick
L beside it.
