,WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
~Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
~GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric
current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
~WARNING - Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
may result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
~Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
~Do not install or use a washer with
visible damage.
~Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to the weather.
~Do not install your washing machine
where temperatures below freezing
may occur. Frozen hoses may burst
under pressure. The reliability of the
electronic control unit may be impaired
at temperatures below freezing.
~Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on the
data plate (fusing, voltage and
frequency) match the mains electrical
supply. If in doubt contact an
electrician.
~Do not use an extension cord to
connect this appliance to the power
supply. Extension cords do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~This appliance is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
an installation in these applications.
Please contact the Mile Technical
Service Dept. with specific
requirements.
~Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in
these operating instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~If the power cord is damaged it
must only be replaced by a Mile
Service technician with a genuine Mile
power cord.
~Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot water
system that has not been used for 2
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has
not been used for such a period, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
~Before the appliance is removed for
service or discarded, remove the door.
Use
~Do not allow children to play on or in
the appliance. Close supervision is
necessary when the appliance is used
near children.
~The drum door glass will be hot
when washing at very high
temperatures.
Do not touch the glass. Danger of
burns! Keep children away from the
washer when in use.
~Only use the washing machine to
wash items which are specified by the
manufacturer to be machine washable
on the fabric care label. Any other
applications may be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
~Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
not add these items to the wash load.
~Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, or other flammable or
explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off
vapors which could ignite or explode.
~Do not use cleaning solvents on or
near the machine or the controls.
Contact with cleaning solvents will
damage the surface.
~Do not reach into the appliance if
the drum is moving.
~Do not tamper
with the controls.

1. Prepare and sort the laundry
^Empty all pockets.
,Foreign objects left in pockets
(e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.)
can cause damage to clothes and
the machine.
Pretreat stains
^Tough stains (blood, egg, coffee, tea,
etc.) or badly soiled areas (collars
and cuffs) should be pretreated with
a stain remover or a paste made from
powder detergent and warm water.
Dab stains with a damp light colored
cloth. Do not rub!
,Do not use chemical solvents in
the machine.
Sort the laundry
^Only wash items that are labeled
machine washable by the
manufacturer. Most garments have a
fabric care label in the collar or side
seam.
^Sort the laundry by care label and
color.
General tips
– Dark fabrics often bleed the first few
times they are washed. They should
be washed separately several times
before being included in a mixed
load.
– Curtains: Remove any lead weights
or strips before washing.
– Loose bra underwires should be
removed or sewn in place before
washing.
– Woolens, knitted garments, jeans,
pants and sweat shirts should be
turned inside out.
– Close zippers, hooks and eyelets
before washing.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened to prevent small
items from rolling inside of them.
–Do not wash items with the h
symbol on the fabric care label.

2. Turn on the washer
^Press the I-On / 0-Off button. The
washer is turned on and the program
indicators light.
3. Load the laundry
^Press the "Door" button to open the
drum door.
^Load the laundry loosely into the
drum. For best results, wash mixed
loads of small and large items. This
will improve washing effectiveness
and help distribute the load evenly.
Water consumption and energy usage
are determined by the size of the load.
The washer automatically adjusts the
amount of water to conserve water and
energy when washing smaller loads.
The time remaining will automatically be
adjusted to reflect a shorter wash
program.
To prevent damage to the door seal
and clothing, make sure that there
are no clothes caught between the
drum door and the seal.
^Close the drum door.
