Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The cardboard box and packing materials protect the appliance during shipping. They have been designed to be biodegradable and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances contain valuable materials. They also contain certain substances, compounds and components which were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment. Handling these materials improperly by disposing of them in your household waste can be harmful to your health and the environment. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with regular household waste and follow local regulations on proper disposal.
Consult with local authorities, dealers or Miele in order to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances. Miele assumes no responsibility for deleting any personal data left on the appliance being disposed. Please ensure that your old appliance is kept away from children until removal. Observe safety requirements for appliances that may tip over or pose an entrapment hazard.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when
using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
It is essential to read all instructions before using the appliance.Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close
supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children. Always close the door after use to prevent child hazards.
Before this appliance is removed for service or discarded, remove
the door to the drying compartment.
Do not install or use a dryer with visible damage.Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to
the weather.
Do not tamper with the controls.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in these operating instructions. Repairs to electrical appliances should only be performed by qualified personnel. Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important information regarding use of fabric softener sheets:
We do not recommend use of fabric softener sheets. Use of fabric softener sheets can clog the surfaces of the lint filters, extending the drying time and increasing energy consumption. During subsequent cleaning, the plastic and surfaces of the lint filters can be damaged! The best results are obtained by using liquid fabric softener in the washing machine. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. If you still wish to use fabric softener sheets, be sure to follow the cleaning instructions under “Cleaning and care” in the “Cleaning instructions when using fabric softener sheets” section.
Tip: Using a fragrance capsule (optional accessory) will add a pleasant fragrance to your laundry. When a fragrance capsule is used, the fragrance is acquired by the entire load of laundry. The disadvantage of fabric softener sheets is that under certain circumstances the fragrance is acquired by only a few items of laundry, especially when drying a full load.
When you use a fragrance capsule, always follow the warnings in this section as well as those under “Fragrance capsule”.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this dryer:
– items which have not been washed. – items, such as work-wear, exposed to grease, oils, or other
deposits (such as lotions or cosmetics) in your dryer. If these items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that they may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the laundry to ignite when heated even after being removed from the dryer.
– items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances. They may give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
– items treated with flammable cleaning agents or items containing
acetone, alcohol, gas, stain remover, wax or chemicals from buffing, etc.
– items which have been splashed with hair spray, nail polish
remover, etc.
When washing heavily soiled items ensure that sufficient detergent is used with a high temperature. If in doubt wash the item several times.
– items containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like
materials.
– items with padding or filling (e.g. pillows or jackets) which have
been damaged. Loose filling could catch fire.
10
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items
contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
Allow the dryer to complete each stage of the program selected,
including the cooling down phase. This will ensure that the items being removed are not too hot to handle.
Clean the lint filter before or after each load.Keep the area around the air intake (toe kick) and adjacent
surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by
qualified personnel.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of 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 can result in a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Before installation, disconnect the tumble dryer from the electrical
supply by shutting off the power main, unplugging the power cord or tripping the circuit breaker. Do not restore power until the installation is complete.
Miele Tumble Dryers and Miele Washing Machines can be
installed as a washer-dryer stack. This requires a Miele Washer­Dryer Stacking Kit which can be purchased separately. Please ensure that the washer-dryer stacking kit is suitable for the Miele Tumble Dryer and the Miele Washing Machine.
If you order a plinth for this tumble dryer (available from Miele as
an optional accessory), make sure it is the correct one.
The maximum dry laundry weight is 17.6 lb (8 kg) kg. See the
“Program chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual programs.
Do not place shoes inside the drum for drying. Placing shoes
inside the drum for drying can cause the belt to tear, requiring a service call. You must always use the dryer basket (optional accessory) when drying/airing shoes. Follow the additional operating instructions for the dryer basket.
12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This tumble dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with
particular conditions (e.g., 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 should only be fitted by a Miele authorized person or by Miele Technical Service.
Information on the heat pump and refrigerant
– This tumble dryer uses refrigerant gas which is not flammable and
not explosive.
– The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. They do not impair the efficient functioning of the tumble dryer.
Damage to the tumble dryer by switching it on too soon. This can damage the heat pump. After setting up the tumble dryer, wait for at least one hour before
switching it on.
– This tumble dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gases.
Hermetically sealed. Designation of refrigerant: R134a Amount of refrigerant: 0.61kg Global-warming potential of refrigerant: 1430kg CO2 e Global-warming potential of appliance: 872kg CO2 e
13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Using a fragrance capsule (optional accessory)

Only use genuine Miele original fragrance capsules.Store the fragrance capsule in its original packaging.Make sure that you always keep the fragrance flacon or the lint
filter with the flacon inserted in it in a horizontal position when carrying, and do not tip or place it down on any surface. The fragrance can leak out of the flacon.
Use an absorbent cloth to wipe up any fragrance which has
leaked out of the capsule onto the floor, the dryer or any dryer components (e.g. the lint filter) immediately.
If fragrance comes in contact with the body: Wash skin thoroughly
with soap and water. Flush eyes with clean water for at least 15minutes. If swallowed, rinse mouth thoroughly with clean water. Seek medical attention if the fragrance comes in contact with the eyes or is swallowed!
Immediately change clothes that have come in contact with the
fragrance. Thoroughly wash clothing or fabric using a large amount of water and detergent.
There is the risk of fire or damage to the tumble dryer if the
following instructions are not observed:
– Never refill a capsule with fragrance or any other substance. – Never use a faulty fragrance capsule.
Dispose of an empty fragrance capsule properly and never use it
for any other purpose.
Please also observe the information supplied with the fragrance
capsule.

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

Drying

Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the laundry.
Foreign objects can melt, burn, or explode.

If you are not using a fragrance flacon: Push the tab down completely (see arrow) so that the socket is closed. Otherwise, lint will accumulate here.
