Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Disposal of your old machine
Electrical and electronic machines
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your machine.
Please do not therefore dispose it with
your household waste.
Energy saving tips
To avoid unnecessarily long drying
times and high consumption of energy:
Make sure that your laundry is
–
thoroughly spun before drying.
The higher the spin, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying.
Load according to the optimum
–
amount of laundry recommended for
the programme being used.
Underloading is uneconomical.
Overloading gives a poorer quality of
drying and may cause unnecessary
creasing.
– Make sure the room in which the
dryer is located is well ventilated.
– After every cycle remove the fluff
from the fluff filter in the door and in
the door opening (see "Cleaning and
Care").
– Check the condenser unit from time
to time and clean it when necessary.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste recycling centre or
contact your dealer for advice. Ensure
that it presents no danger to children
while being stored for disposal.

~
condensed water container, make sure the drain hose is securely
attached if you hang it in a sink or basin to avoid the hose slipping
and the water causing damage.
Condensed water is not drinking water.
~
It can cause health problems in both people and animals.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
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 self-ignite when heated, even after they have been
removed from the dryer at the end of the programme.
items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with
–
inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of
acetone, alcohol, benzine, petrol, kerosene, stain remover,
turpentine, wax, wax remover or other chemicals.
– items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varnish remover or similar substances.
When washing such heavily soiled items ensure that you use
sufficient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt,
wash the items several times.
Remove all items such as lighters and matches from pockets.
~
Warning: Do not switch the tumble dryer off before the drying
~
programme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung
up or spread out to cool it down.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Danger.
~
This tumble dryer must not be connected to a controllable socket
(e.g. a timer switch or a peak load shut-off device).
If the dryer programme were to be interrupted before the end of the
cooling down phase, the laundry could self-combust.
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be tumble dried:
~
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.
– damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,
jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of
igniting in the dryer.
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 has been completed.
As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the
drum.
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 tumble dryer. Danger of fire and
explosion.
Do not allow air contaminated with chlorine, fluorine or other
~
vapours containing solvents to get into the tumble dryer. Fire
hazard.
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, therefore, store containers of these agents near the tumble
dryer.
15
Warning and Safety instructions

Before drying
– Wash heavily soiled items very
thoroughly, ensuring that you use
sufficient detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
–
Do not put soaking wet items into the
tumble dryer Make sure that your
laundry is thoroughly spun before
drying.
The higher the spin, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying.
New dark-coloured garments should
–
be washed and dried separately
from light-coloured garments the first
few times they are washed, to avoid
the risk of colours running and
discolouring other garments or even
the plastic components in the tumble
dryer.
Dark-coloured fibres can also settle
on light-coloured garments and vice
versa.
Starched laundry can be dried in the
–
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual
finish, double the amount of starch
should be used.
– Check the seams of padded or
down-filled items to prevent the risk
of fillings coming out. These could
catch fire in the tumble dryer.
– Tie together textile belts and apron
ties to stop them getting tangled.
– Fasten duvet covers etc. to prevent
small items from being trapped
inside them. Fasten hooks and eyes
etc.
–
Stitch in or remove loose underwiring
from bras.
–
Leave jackets open and undo any
long zips so that textiles dry evenly.
20
–
For an even drying result, it is
important to...
. . . spin,
. . . shake out,
. . . and sort items according to
fabric type, size, care label and the
drying level required.
Notes and tips on laundry care
2. Load the tumble dryer
Using the tumble dryer
,
incorrectly could cause a fire. Read
the "Warning and Safety instructions"
before using the machine.
Make sure that objects, e.g.
,
detergent dispensing balls, have
been removed from the laundry.
They could melt and cause damage
to the dryer or the laundry.
Do not overload the drum.
–
Overloading can cause unnecessary
wear and tear to the laundry, give a
disappointing drying result and
cause more creasing.
– To save energy, always observe the
maximum load for each programme
(see "Programme chart").
– Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease
more the greater the load. This is
also the case for garments made
from very fine weave fabrics, such as
shirts or blouses.
If necessary, reduce the size of the
load for these types of fabrics.
3. Select a programme
On many programmes, different
–
drying levels can be selected
depending on individual
requirements
. . . e.g. Normal+ for laundry that you
want to fold and put away immedi
ately after drying.
. . . e.g. Machine iron or Hand iron if
the laundry needs further processing
after drying, e.g. machine ironing.
See "Programme chart".
For delicate fabrics with the r care
–
label, select Low temperature as
well.
– Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink,
depending on the quality of the item.
They can be partially dried using the
Smoothing programme.
– Pure linen should only be machine
dried if specified as suitable by the
manufacturer on the care label, as
the surface of the fabric may
otherwise become rough. They can
be partially dried using the
Smoothing programme.
–
Woollens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if dried in
a tumble dryer. Only dry these
fabrics in a Woollens programme.
-
–
Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts and
underwear) tend to shrink depending
on their quality. Therefore: Do not
over-dry these textiles. When
purchasing these garments it is
advisable to take their shrinkage
properties into account.

Problem solving guide
An unsatisfactory drying result
ProblemPossible causeRemedy
The laundry is not
sufficiently dry.
Feather filled pillows
smell after drying.
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
There is a build-up of
fluff.
The load consisted of
different fabrics.
Feathers are a natural
product and this is quite
normal.
Synthetic fibres tend to
attract static charge.
Fluff is principally the
result of friction when
garments are being worn
and to some extent when
they are being washed.
Machine drying causes
hardly any fluff to form
and has no appreciable
effect on the lifetime of
the fabric.
Finish drying using the
–
Warm air programme.
Select a different
–
programme next time
(see "Programme
chart").
The smell will dissipate
after sufficient airing.
Static charge can be
reduced by adding a
fabric conditioner to the
final rinse in the washing
programme or a fabric
conditioner sheet to the
load when drying.
Fluff is collected by the
fluff filter and can be
easily removed (see
"Cleaning and care").

Other problems
ProblemPossible causeRemedy
The drying
process goes on
too long or even
switches off.
You might be asked to
clean the ducting
system/filters again.
Ventilation to and from the
dryer may be insufficient,
e.g. because it is installed
in a room which is too
small. This can cause the
temperature in the room to
rise sharply.
The vents below the door
are blocked.
The fluff filters are
clogged up with fluff or
were still wet when they
were replaced.
Detergent residues, hair
and fine fibres can block
the condenser unit.
The laundry has not been
spun sufficiently.
The tumble dryer has
been overloaded.
Metallic components, e.g.
zips have prevented the
dryer from registering the
correct moisture level in
the laundry.
Please check all possible
causes, described below.
Open a door or window while
the dryer is in operation for
increased air flow.
– Remove any objects that are
blocking the vents.
– Remove any fluff.
– The fluff filters must be
completely dry.
Check the condenser unit from
time to time and clean it if
necessary.
Make sure that your laundry is
thoroughly spun at the
appropriate spin speed in the
washing machine.
Do not exceed the maximum
load for the programme
selected.

The machine must be perfectly level to
ensure safe and proper operation.
,
Ensure the tumble dryer is stable
during transportion.
50
^
The screw feet can be adjusted to
compensate for any unevenness in
the floor.
Never block the vents on the
,
dryer.
In order to ensure sufficient
ventilation to the dryer, do not
reduce the vent gap between the
underside of the dryer and the floor
with a plinth, deep-pile carpet, etc.
This tumble dryer is not suitable for
building under.
Installation and connection
Payment system
The dryer can be fitted with a payment
system (optional accessory).
This must be connected and
programmed by a Miele Service
technician.
Coins/tokens must be removed from
the payment system regularly,
otherwise it will become blocked.
Note for service technician:
–
Room in which the dryer is located
Air taken in for use in the drying
process will be warm when it is
expelled from the underside and back
of the dryer. This expelled air heats up
the air in the room. It is therefore very
important to ensure that the room is
adequately ventilated, particularly if the
dryer is located in a small room.
Otherwise running times and energy
consumption could be increased.
Securing the tumble dryer against
slippage
,
Secure both front feet on the
dryer using the fixing brackets
supplied.
When connecting to a payment
,
system, the plug connector on the
push button switch (see wiring
diagram) must be disconnected
from its position ex-works and
reconnected to the position for
payment system operation.
Failure to do this can cause the
payment system to malfunction.
51
Installation and connection
External drainage of the
condensed water
The condensed water is pumped
away through the drain hose which is
located at the back of the dryer at the
bottom.
Drain hose length: ..............2m
Delivery head: .................1m
Do not pull on the drain hose
,
and do not allow it to become
kinked as this could damage it.
Drain hose connection:
1. Direct into a sink or basin.
– Hook the hose over the edge and
secure.
– Use the bow-shaped guide (see
illustration on the right).
Remove adapter 1 and hose clip 3
^
behind it.
^ Fit adapter 1 to the sink drain outlet
using nut 2.
2. Connected securely to a floor gully.
3. Connected directly to a sink drain
outlet.
Connection to a sink drain outlet
To connect the drain hose to a sink
drain outlet you will need to use the
adapter and hose clip located at the
back of the dryer at the bottom.
52
^
Secure the drain hose with hose clip
3 to the nut.
Electrical connection
All electrical work must be
,
carried out by a suitably qualified
and competent person in
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations (BS 7671
in the UK).
Installation and connection
If the machine is disconnected
,
from the electricity supply adequate
measures must be taken to ensure
that the machine cannot be
reconnected to the electricity supply
until all work has been carried out.
This machine is supplied with a
connection cable and moulded plug
(BS 1363) for connection to a 230 V
mains supply.
The machine must only be operated
with the voltage, frequency and fuse
rating shown on the data plate supplied
with the machine. Please ensure these
match the site mains supply.
We recommend connecting the
machine to the power supply via an
IP44 plug and socket which must be
easily accessible for servicing and
maintenance work after the machine
has been installed.
Do not connect the machine via an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
machine (e.g. danger of overheating).
For extra safety and protection we
recommend connecting the machine by
a 30 mA residual current device (RCD).
The machine must be
,
permanently connected to the
electricity supply to enable the
programme to complete and to
enable the load to cool down after
drying. For this reason it must not be
connected to devices such as timers
which would switch it off
automatically.
WARNING
THIS MACHINE
MUST BE EARTHED
An electrical safety test must be carried
out after installation and after any ser
vice work.
The mains connection cable may only
be replaced by an original Miele spare
part.
