M Touch Pro and M Touch Pro Plus
The M Touch Pro controls with full-color touch display are simple to operate thanks to easy-to-understand symbols, language selection option, color frame and show-me-how sequences. Depending on the model, parameters such as temperatures, holding times and running times for standard and special programs can also be adjusted quickly and easily.

M Select
M Select for tumble dryers offers all programs and functions for standard applications. They are selected quickly and directly using a rotary control and touch membrane, supported by control panels with international symbols. M Select is available in ROP (residual moisture controls).

Special programs
Spin speeds and holding times are precisely adjusted to the textile properties. For example, they facilitate chemo-thermal disinfection in the care sector or thorough cleaning of mops and cleaning cloths. Final rinse cycles and programs for direct reprocessing ensure an additional guarantee of hygiene and immediate availability.

Program packages
Precise, tailored program packages with predefined running times, temperatures and holding times achieve excellent results with minimum consumption. Whether red wine or lubricant, towel or mop – Miele Benchmark machines ensure gentle reprocessing and precise drying for all textiles.

Intuitive programming tool
The new programming tool can be used to adjust pre-installed programs to custom requirements quickly and easily – whether that’s adjusting the temperature or creating entirely new programs and profiles.

Sustainable system solution

Short running times, durable commercial technology and low consumption optimize processes, reduce costs and protect the environment.

30,000 hours of continuous operation
Benchmark washing machines are built to last 30,000 operating hours at full capacity. The combination of robust materials, sensitive sensors and new systems for maximum smooth running is what makes Benchmark a long-lasting, reliable commercial solution.

OneFingerTouch automatic door lock
With OneFingerTouch, the 415 mm door is easy to open and close with the tip of your finger. Fewer contact points reduce the risk of infection – and make loading and unloading easier. The system unlocks at the end of the program, ensuring maximum user safety.

3D imbalance sensor
The new sensor scans the movements of the washing machine drum, evaluates performance data and adjusts spin speeds and weight distribution. The result: shorter running times, less residual moisture, smoother running, lower consumption – and an extended service life for all components.

Honeycomb drum 2.0
Drum ribs let water rain down on the load, wetting laundry faster, more uniformly and more efficiently. A thin film of water created on the honeycomb structure of the drum allows laundry to glide gently, ensuring it keeps its shape.

Optimized suspension system
The optimized suspension system is designed for maximum constant strain. Independently operating springs absorb shocks, minimize drum oscillations and guarantee whisper-quiet operation and long service life, in particular with partial and full loads and at maximum spin speeds.

Benchmark tumble dryers

Patented systems ensure precision drying, short running times and low consumption.

PerfectDry
Limescale sensors continually measure the residual moisture and adjust the drying process precisely to the water hardness. The predefined residual moisture level and perfect degree of dryness are achieved precisely, avoiding under-drying or over-drying.

A variety of heating types
Gas, steam and hot water are simple to install with a single-phase connection for drum volumes up to 500 l. This means that all heating types – electric, gas, steam and hot water – can be connected without the need for conversion work and are ready for use.
