Hi,

Just got a new Miele washing machine.
Front loader, the smaller size one.

Imagine this is the same for any of their new ones:

Everything on the screen is in Spanish.
Can't get it to display in English.
Have tried most everything.

Anyone know how to ?

Much thanks,
Bob

According to their instructions one just goes to "settings" and under
"language" use the up/down arrow.


The word for settings is: ajustes

The word for language is: idioma


That said, I don't understand why anyone would make such a purchase.
My analog washing machine is 29 years old and has had zero problems

I'm not quite sure what analog means in reference to a washer ?
But when I was shopping last year, to replace my 15 year old
washer with mechanical timer all new front load washers
were computerized.
The one exception was a Huebsch at $ 3000.
... and it wasn't even a commercial model !
I really think that the manufacturers are missing a big
market segment here - give me a front load, mechanical
control washing machine - maybe 3 or 4 cycles ; no bells
no whistles - I'll pay more for less ! I don't think I'm alone.

As you said: mechanical timer.


Old technology but reliable and simple.

Clothing will get just as clean no matter what kind of controls the
appliance has.

If you click on the " mechanical controls " link -
it displays 2 models with electronic controls ?
... perhaps I'm missing your point ..
