Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mater­ial

The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufactur­ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appli­ance

Electrical and electronic appliances of­ten contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, com­pounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and
safety. These could be hazardous to hu­man health and to the environment if
disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local com­munity waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic ap­pliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also respons­ible for deleting any personal data that
may be stored on the appliance being
disposed of. Please ensure that your
old appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions

 It is essential to read these instructions.

This tumble dryer complies with all current local and national
safety requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to per­sonal injury and damage to property.

Read the operating instructions carefully before using the tumble
dryer. They contain important information on safety, installation,
use and maintenance. This prevents both personal injury and dam­age to the tumble dryer.

In accordance with standard IEC60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the
chapter on installing the tumble dryer as well as the safety instruc­tions and warnings.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these instructions.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them
on to any future owner.

When instructing other people how to use the tumble dryer, they
must be made aware of these safety and warning instructions.

Correct application

 This tumble dryer is only intended for drying fabrics which have

been washed in a water solution, and marked on the manufacturer's
care label as being suitable for tumble drying. “Dry cleaning kits” for
freshening up garments in a tumble dryer are increasingly available
on the market. If using, do so at your own risk, and follow the in­structions provided on the packaging. Any other applications may be
dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from in­correct or improper use or operation.

7

Warning and Safety instructions

 This tumble dryer may also be operated in public areas.
 The tumble dryer is not intended for outdoor use.
 This appliance can only be used by people with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, if
they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it
in a safe way and understand and recognise the consequences of in­correct operation.

 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the tumble

dryer unless they are constantly supervised.

 Children 8 years and older may only use the tumble dryer unsu-

pervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise
and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the tumble

dryer unsupervised.

 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the tumble dryer and do

not let them play with it.

Technical safety

 Before setting up the tumble dryer, check it for any externally vis-

ible damage.
Do not install or use a damaged tumble dryer.

 Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless authorised

to do so by Miele.

 Do not connect the tumble dryer to the mains electricity supply by

an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire hazard and do not guar­antee the required safety of the tumble dryer.

 The appliance may only be operated when the following condi-

tions are met:

- The ship’s hull is longer than 24metres.

- The list of the vessel is not more than 2°.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

- Any external vibration is no more than 150Hz at an amplitude of

0.35mm.

The safe operation and correct functioning of the appliance can only
be guaranteed if the above conditions are met.

 The appliance may not be operated on an open deck.
 Appliances that do not carry the “ETLC/US” safety mark comply

with European safety regulations.
These appliances must not be operated in the USA.

 This appliance must only be installed by a qualified person who

has made sure that the conditions for its safe use are met.

 When installing this appliance, it must be securely fixed to the

floor.
Failure to do this could result in personal injury, damage to the appli­ance and damage to other objects and installations.

 If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must always be re-

placed by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user
from danger.

 The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re­quirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the on-site wiring sys­tem inspected by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric
shock).

 Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the

user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele approved service technician, otherwise any
subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty. Ensure cur­rent is not supplied to the tumble dryer until after maintenance or re­pair work has been carried out.

9

Warning and Safety instructions

 Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-

ginal spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of
the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

 To ensure the correct performance of the tumble dryer and to pre-

vent the risk of faults and fire, it is important to carry out mainten­ance on a regular basis.

 In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the tumble dryer

is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

- it is switched off at the wall socket or the plug is withdrawn, or

- it is switched off at the mains, or the mains fuse is disconnected

- the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applic­able), or it is switched off at the isolator switch.

See “Installation - Electrical connection”.

 Please observe the instructions in “Installation”, “Installation of the

ducting” and “Technical data”.

 The accessibility of the plug must be always ensured, in order to

separate the tumble dryer from the mains. All electrical work should
be carried out only by a suitably qualified and competent person, in
strict accordance with national and local safety regulations.

 If the appliance is hard wired, adequate provision must be made

on site to switch off all poles to disconnect the tumble dryer from the
electrical supply.

 Do not block the gap between the bottom of the tumble dryer and

the floor with plinth facings, deep pile carpet etc. This would hinder a
sufficient flow of air to the dryer.

 Do not install a lockable door, a sliding door or a door which is

hinged in the opposite direction to the dryer door.

10

Warning and Safety instructions

 This tumble dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with

particular conditions (e.g. relating to temperature, moisture, chemical
resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp
must only be used for the purpose for which it is intended. It is not
suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by
a Miele authorised person or by Miele Service.

Correct use

 The maximum load for this tumble dryer is 7 kg (dry weight).The

maximum recommended loads for individual programmes are given
in the Programme chart.

 Do not lean on the door. Otherwise, the tumble dryer may tip over,

causing injury to yourself or others.

 Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the

danger of:

- children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it.

- pets or other small animals climbing into it.

 Do not use a pressure washer or hose to clean the tumble dryer.
 Keep the room where the tumble dryer is located free from dust

and fluff. If the air that is taken into the machine contains dirt
particles, this can cause blockages. A fault may then occur and there
is a risk of fire.

 The tumble dryer may only be operated when the ducting has

been installed and the room is sufficiently ventilated.

 Please observe the instructions in “Installation of the ducting”.
 The ducting must never be installed in any of the following flues or

shafts.

- Chimneys or smokestacks that are in use.

- Shafts that are used to ventilate installation rooms with fireplaces.

- Flues that are used by third parties.

11

Warning and Safety instructions

Smoke or exhaust gas that is fed back into the flue or shaft may be
toxic.

 Reverse suction of exhaust gases may result in a risk of suffoca-

tion and poisoning if gas-powered flow heaters, gas-powered room
heaters, coal ovens connected to the flue, etc., are installed in the
same room, in the same dwelling or in neighbouring rooms and the
pressure is 4Pa or less.

The following measures for suitable room ventilation (examples) can
help to prevent negative pressure in the installation area:

- Installing vents that cannot be closed in the exterior walls.

- Window switch: The tumble dryer can only be switched on when
a window is open.

Please always seek approval from the appropriate authority (GasSafe
engineer, chimney sweep etc.) to confirm that the appliance can be
operated without risk and that negative pressure of over 4Pa can be
prevented.

 Regularly check all components in the ducting (e.g. wall pipe, ex-

ternal grille, bends, elbows, etc.) to make sure air can move through
them and to ensure that they are working properly. Clean compon­ents when necessary. Fluff deposits in the ducting system will pre­vent the air from being extracted properly and, as a result, will stop
the tumble dryer from working properly.
If existing ducting is due to be used, it must be checked before be­ing connected to the tumble dryer.

 If multiple tumble dryers are to be installed on one exhaust air

duct, a non-return flap must be installed directly on the duct for each
tumble dryer.
If this requirement is not observed, the tumble dryers may be dam­aged and their electrical safety could be affected.

 The fluff filter must be cleaned on a regular basis.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

 Never operate the tumble dryer without the fluff filter or with a

damaged fluff filter. This could lead to malfunctions. Fluff can clog
the air channels, heating elements and ducting, which could result in
a fire.
Stop the tumble dryer immediately and replace the damaged fluff fil­ter.

 Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is a risk of

frost. At temperatures around freezing point, the tumble dryer may
not be able to operate properly.
The permitted room temperature is between 2°C and 35°C.

 To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried

in this tumble dryer:

- items which have not been washed.

- Items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly
cleaned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other depos­its (such as cosmetics, lotions etc). If items have not been thor­oughly cleaned there is a danger that these might ignite when
heated, even after they have been removed from the dryer at the
end of the programme.

- Items that have been soiled with substances such as acetone,
petrol, kerosene, stain removers, turpentine, waxes, wax re­movers and other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths) should
be washed in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in
the tumble dryer.

- Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varnish remover or similar substances.

When washing very heavily soiled items ensure that you use suffi­cient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt wash
several times before drying.

 Remove all items from pockets (e.g. lighters, matches).

13

Warning and Safety instructions

 In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling

down phase to ensure that the items are not too hot to handle when
you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry self-ig­niting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down phase
is complete. Ensure that you always wait until the end of the pro­gramme before removing the laundry.

 Fire hazard.

This tumble dryer must not be connected to a controllable socket
(e.g. a timer or a peak-load switch-off device).
The tumble dryer may only be operated with a peak-load device if
this is connected to the tumble dryer via the Miele XCI box and the
relevant settings have been configured on the tumble dryer.
There is a risk of the laundry igniting itself if the drying programme is
cancelled before the cooling phase has finished.

 To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried

in this tumble dryer:

- items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional
dry-cleaning agents).

- fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex
foam rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles
and items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.

- Fabrics which contain damaged padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,
jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of it
igniting in the dryer.

 The programme ends when the cooling phase starts. Many pro-

grammes are followed by the cooling phase to ensure that the items
are not too hot to handle when you remove them (this also reduces
the risk of the laundry self-igniting).
Always remove all laundry as soon as the programme has finished.

 Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according

to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

 Benzine, petrol, paraffin, or any easily flammable liquid must not

be stored or used near the machine. Danger of explosion.

 Do not expose the dryer to air which is contaminated with vapour

of chlorine, fluorine or other solvents. Danger of fire.

 For tumble dryers with stainless steel surfaces:

The stainless steel surfaces must not come into contact with liquid
cleaning and disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or sodium
hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on stainless
steel.
Aggressive vapours containing chlorine can also be corrosive.
Do not store containers of these agents near the tumble dryer.

Accessories

 Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with

this appliance. If spare parts or accessories from other manufactur­ers are used, this will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot ac­cept liability.

 The tumble dryer can also be combined with a Miele washing ma-

chine in a washer-dryer stack. The appropriate “WTV” stacking kit
(available to order) to match your dryer is required.

 Make sure that you order the correct plinth for this tumble dryer

(available from Miele as an optional accessory).

1. Notes on correct laundry care

Washing

- Heavily soiled laundry must be
washed particularly thoroughly. Use
sufficient detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.

- New, coloured items must be washed
thoroughly and separately. Do not dry
these items with light coloured gar­ments. There is the risk of colours
running and discolouring other gar­ments or even plastic components in
the tumble dryer. Dark coloured fluff
can also settle on light coloured gar­ments and vice versa.

Drying

 Damage due to foreign objects

which were not removed from the
laundry.

Foreign objects can melt, burn, or
explode.

Ensure that any foreign objects, e.g.
detergent dispensing balls, lighters,
etc., have been removed from the
laundry.

- Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.

 Risk of fire due to incorrect use

and operation.
The laundry can burn and destroy

the tumble dryer and the surround­ings.

See the section on “Warning and
safety” for further information.

- Check seams and stitching to ensure
that the items are intact. This way you
will avoid the danger of fillings com­ing out and causing a fire.

Preventing textile damage.
When closing the door, make sure

that laundry does not get trapped in
the door opening.

Closing the door

Do not overload the drum. Overload­ing can cause unnecessary wear and
tear to the laundry and and cause a
disappointing drying result. It can also
cause more creasing.
