Miele USA W1's Prewash/Soak/Add Item June 2022 Update Fix Ready
Comments (217)My WWH860 was updated by the app about two weeks ago. I never had the problem with the prewash so I wasn't sure why. I did have to rerun the Calibration program. What I noticed after? Water plus no longer automatically appears in the app as an Extra. There is less water in every fill in every program. I had previously entered the programming menu and set water plus to one water drop a few months before the update, so I went back into that menu and reset it to one drop, afterward not much difference in the water level. I entered the menu again and set the level to 2 drops. There might be a bit more water but it is hard to notice. Still less water in the machine than before the update. I've turned auto-update off. From now on if nothing is wrong I don't want any updates....See MoreMiele W1 WWH860 Cycle Times
Comments (18)Hi @Stephen, Sorry for the delayed response as I was out of town. Here you go: Normal: 105F 1:42h WF: 105F 1:33h Baby: 140F 2:12h Extra White: 140F 2:07h Sanitize: 170F 2:43h These times include PowerWash which is an automatic feature that cannot be selected or turned off unlike LG's TurboWash option. Actual cycle times are always less with the auto load control....See MoreMiele US WXI860 Est Cycle Times/USER MANUAL AND PROGRAMMING ERRORS
Comments (15)I haven’t. I can do that. Or just put it in the drum. But it’s just not right that Miele is sending out defective machines. It’s similar to false advertising when you say your product can do something and it doesn’t. They should be held accountable. They exchanged my WWH860 for a WXI860 that has similar issues! I don’t understand. Does Miele not test these models prior to rolling them out to the public? As I had indicated, we know they don’t proofread the user manuals as there are very many errors listed. How can a company whose motto is Immer besser, allow these errors and irregularities to exist and still roll the products out to the public?...See MoreMiele W1 WXR860WCS washing machine - laundry is oily
Comments (22)The things we can't see over the internet when we talk about detergent dosing are someone else's machine capacity, size of their average laundry load, level of "dirty" on that laundry, and soft/hard water quality. I suspect dosing might be part (or all) of the issue. You mention in your OP that your water is soft and averages 32 ppm. IIRC, Miele detergents are formulated in Europe, where water generally runs hard to very hard, IIRC. My current SQ FL has a 3.5 cu ft capacity. I rarely fill the machine 3/4 full with laundry; usually more like 1/2 to 3/4 full. Our average water hardness is 90 ppm per the 2020 city report. I never use more than half of whatever the detergent package recommends for a 3/4 full load. Usually loads are smaller so even less than that is used. Our clothes generally aren't very dirty, except for hubby's golf clothing that is quite sweaty and grimy with sunscreen on the collars and shorts hems and pockets, which get a half-dose. Everything gets less than a half-dose. Currently, the water here is running softer (we had over 7" rain in July and water supply is sourced from a local large river) and I'm using even less detergent, based on the small pile of suds I see in the gasket after the final spin (I'm retired and have the time to look...LOL) even though there are no visible suds in the wash or rinse water. On small loads (half-full or less), I'm currently using a teaspoon (5 ml) of detergent. And our water has 3x the ppm that yours has. Your machine, at 2.5 cu ft, is even smaller than mine, so dosing might be part (or all) of the problem, IMHO. Using a detergent you've used in the past will help, I think, because you know it....See MoreRelated Professionals
