Wow, ich wusste garnicht, dass Miele damals schon eine so weit fortgeschrittene Maschine produziert hat. Das Gerät, ist wirklich der Chef unter den Waschmaschinen. 🫶👍🏼 Ich selber besitze eine 20 Jahre alte Miele Softtronic W2244 Wps. Die läuft noch wie am ersten Tag, musste bis jetzt lediglich die Dämpfer wechseln. Diese Geräte bereiten einfach Freunde. Vor allem die Waschzeiten sind top. Beste Grüße aus Deutschland.
Hey there, if you want the machine to assume that it has a full load inside and does the longest time on one cycle, e.g. for self clean at cottons 95 degrees, then wait until the machines did the first fill over the main wash compartment and it’s first full drum turn. After that press the yellow door button, wait 5 seconds and just close the door. Hopefully you’ll see ne normal cycle time for a full load. I think I remember it from the manual where it says that the machine will assume a full load, after putting something in, wen you forget a garment
Hi Mattie, I had this machine for nearly 20 years before the electronics went on it. Just some tips. You had 25% showing on the screen even though the drum was empty. You need to spin the drum by hand to recalibrate it to zero. Your load would've been 50%, not 75%. You also mention that you couldn't get a longer wash when it was empty. A little trick. Open the door soon after you start the program and close it again. It will increase the wash time as it thinks you have put more laundry in the machine. The 60-degree setting will max out at 55. This was an energy-saving feature of the machine.
curious how you would customize the water plus option, just hook up a laptop up to it or is it doable with some button combination and then using other buttons to customize it using the screen it has
I love the look of these machines despite preferring the straight panel models, but this machine has the perfect angle. Where did you get the drive powder, I have looked at a few places and nothing. Should have tried it when it was available. I don’t use powder much in my top loader due to skin sensitivity but I use it in the Miele front for most loads. So far I’ve tried Radiant, Bio-Zet, Fab and now Aldi Almat. My favourite was Fab but I think Almat could be even better, yet to try it. Choice review claims that anyway.
@@mattie17 online it claims to be at some hardware stores, but IGA claims to sell it but yet to see it again in stores. What would you compare the scent with?

So glad to see this carry on after I left it’s a gorgeous washer ❤❤
That must be one of the first household Mielese with an inverter motor - impressive for the age!
👍😊

Thanks for that :-)
I’d read that in the manual also

Ahhh good to know!
Thanks for that!
Love this model. Once you've had a drum light, it's hard to go back to the dark.
Nice

We got it in Fridge and Washer City. Not sure if you have those where you are?

@@simpsonauto850 it’s certainly not the scent of Drive as we know it. More of a tangy citrus scent
this is the first miele with fu motor and honeycomb drum i have it on my collection its very reliable
