Warning and Safety instructions
Explanation of the Warning and Safety symbols on the machine
It is essential to read these operating instructions.
Please refer to specific instructions, e.g.
Installation instructions
Caution, hot surfaces.
Caution, voltage up to 1000 volts.
Earthing
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine read the operating instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information about the installation, safety, use and maintenance of the machine. Keep them in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.
This tumble dryer is only intended for industrial or institutional use and should not be used by anyone who is not specially trained to operate it. This also applies to industrial applications performed in residential environments.
All personnel working with this machine must be fully trained in all aspects of its use and safety.
Correct application
This dryer must only be used for drying articles which were washed in water and which have a care label stating that the article is suitable for machine drying.
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be dried in this tumble dryer (with the exception of those fabrics which can be dried in the Special Programs specifically designed for them):
–fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or rubber-like materials.
–items which have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents.
–items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances.
–items which have been soiled with oils or residues containing grease (kitchen oils, cosmetics etc.).
–items soiled with wax or other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths).
–items with damaged padding or fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets).
–items soiled with grease or oil which have not been properly cleaned beforehand. Use heavy-duty detergents where necessary to clean heavily soiled garments, e.g. workwear. If necessary consult the detergent manufacturer for advice.
With sensitive fabrics there may be a danger of them self igniting if dried for too long. They should be removed as soon as the program has finished or if there is a power cut.
Keep a fire extinguisher near the machine at all times.
Do not unload laundry from the drum until the cooling down phase has been completed.
Hot laundry can self ignite and cause a fire when folded or put away.
Check that all pockets of workwear etc are empty to avoid the danger of inflammable objects, e.g. cigarette lighters, matches, candles or cosmetics being placed in the dryer.
If the dryer is installed in a public area the owner must ensure that it can be operated safely.
This dryer must not be used outside.
Technical and electrical safety
This machine must only be installed and commissioned by a Miele technician.
The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed if connected to a correctly installed earthing system on site. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly, and where there is any doubt, the on-site electrical wiring should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
The machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply either when it is switched off at the isolator switch or the mains fuse has been withdrawn.
Repairs to electrical heated appliances should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.

Warning and Safety instructions
This machine must not be operated in the same room as dry cleaning machines which use solvents containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Escaping vapours break down during combustion into hydrochloric acid which can have a detrimental effect on both the laundry and the machine. Even when such machines are installed in separate rooms, care should be taken to ensure that no exchange of air can take place.
The dryer must have a constant supply of fresh air. Vapours containing chlorine, fluorine or other solvents must not be able to reach the dryer.
The ventilation inlet to the dryer is located at the back of the machine. It must not be blocked or hindered in any way. Do not cover the machine lid with cloths or similar items.
Benzine, petrol, paraffin or any easily flammable substance must not be stored or used near the tumble dryer. Fire and explosion risk.
To ensure the correct performance of the machine and to prevent the risk of faults and fire, it is important to check the machine and carry out maintenance on a regular basis.
Use
Compliant use of the dryer has been investigated with respect to industrial use only (UL1240).
This tumble dryer must only be used when it is connected to a suitable ducting system. The installation site must be adequately ventilated.
This tumble dryer is not intended for use by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it by a by a person responsible for their safety.
Keep children away from the tumble dryer at all times. It is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury do not allow them to play on or near it or to play with the controls. Supervise children whilst you are using it.
Always close the drum door and the fluff filter compartment after use to avoid:
–the risk of children hiding things in the dryer
–the risk of children and small animals climbing into the drum and endangering their lives.
Do not use a machine with damaged controls or cables. These must be repaired before it is used again.
Do not damage, remove or bypass the safety features, fixtures and control elements of this machine.
Any removable outer panels must be back in place, and all moving or electrical parts shielded before the machine is switched on.
Whilst the dryer is in use the porthole glass and drum door frame can become very hot. Laundry will also be very hot if you remove it early.
To prevent the risk of injury or scalding components carrying steam must not be touched.
Always make sure that the drum is stationary before reaching into the machine to remove laundry. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.
Take care near the drum door hinges and the fluff filter compartment flap. Danger of injury. Ensure that you always use the handles.
The drum door must be able to be opened to its fullest extent. This area must not be restricted by doors or structural features.
Do not use the machine without the built-in fluff filter in place. Fire risk.
A damaged fluff filter must be replaced before the machine is used again.
Otherwise fluff and lint will cause a blockage in the airways, the heating and the vent ducting, and the correct functioning of the machine cannot be assured.
Cleaning and disinfecting agents often contain chlorine-based substances. Do not let such agents come into contact with the stainless steel surfaces, as the chlorine can have a corrosive effect and cause rust. Use chlorine-free agents for washing and disinfecting and also for cleaning stainless steel surfaces to protect them from corrosion. If in doubt, confirm with the manufacturer that their product is suitable. If any agent containing chlorine comes into contact with the stainless steel surfaces, wipe it away immediately with clean water. Then dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use a pressure washer or hose to clean the machine.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele. Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.
Disposing of your old machine
Before disposing of an old machine, first make the door lock unusable. This way you will prevent children from accidentally locking themselves in and endangering their lives.
Keep these instructions in a safe and accessible place.
5
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.
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are 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.
Disposing 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 of it with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.
Tips on saving energy
Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying. This saves time and energy.
Rinsing the laundry using hot water in the final rinse helps to reduce the residual moisture level, and the residual heat in the laundry will help keep processing time down, thus saving energy.
Sort textiles according to:
-fabric and weave,
-drying level required,
-residual moisture levels.
For greater economy dry a full load. Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading will impair the drying result and the laundry finish.
Ensure that the room is well ventilated.

Woollens and wool blends as these tend to matt and shrink. Pre-finish drying these using in the "Woollens" program.
Pure linen tends to roughen if tumble dried. Please follow instructions given on the care label.
Important:
Textiles with large metal accessories such as buckles, hooks and zip tags should be placed in a laundry bag or a pillow case before drying. This is to protect the drum from scratches and dents during drying.
Garments with closed metal zips can cause the sensor electrodes in the drum ribs to be bridged. This can cause the drying process to go on for too long, or to not finish at all. Open zips before drying.
Loopknit and woven textiles (e.g. T-shirts and underwear) have a tendency to shrink depending on their quality. This is made worse by over-drying. Do not use the "Cottons extra dry" for these textiles.
Starched laundry can be machine dried. Select the most appropriate program for ironing by hand or machine.
Sort the laundry according to the level of dryness required. It is not necessary to sort according to size.
Duvet covers and pillow cases should be closed to prevent smaller items rolling up inside them.
For greater economy dry a full load. Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading will impair the drying result and the laundry finish.
Rinsing the laundry using hot water in the final rinse helps to reduce the residual moisture level, and the residual heat in the laundry will help keep processing time down, thus saving energy.

If laundry is not removed as soon as the programme finishes, the anti-crease phase will begin.
The drum will rotate at brief intervals to keep the laundry from creasing.
After drying
At the end of the programme
Open the drum door.
If the door remains closed, the dryer will start up again briefly after an interval of 30 minutes for safety reasons.
Unload the drum.
Make sure nothing is left behind in the drum. If items are left in the dryer, they could be damaged by overdrying when the dryer is next used.
Check the fluff filter and clean it if necessary. Close the fluff filter compartment flap to prevent anyone tripping over it.
Interrupting a programme
The programme is interrupted by:
-pressing the mains On/Off switch ,
-opening the drum door,
-opening the fluff compartment flap.
To continue the programme:
Press the mains On/Off switch , or close the drum door or fluff compartment flap.
The target residual moisture level will flash in the segment display, and a cooling-down phase will follow the end of the programme.
Press the START/STOP button.
Do not unload laundry from the drum until after the cooling down phase has been completed. Hot laundry can self-ignite and cause a fire when folded or put away.
Adding or removing items
The drum door can be opened during a drying programme to remove or add items if necessary.
Always make sure that the drum is stationary before reaching into the machine to remove laundry. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.
To continue the drying programme:
Close the drum door.
The target residual moisture level will flash in the segment display.
The fan will switch itself on automatically if the temperature in the drum is too high.
Press the START/STOP button to continue the programme.
If no more laundry is to be processed:
Close the drum door.
Switch the dryer off by pressing the mains On/Off switch
Switch off the on-site mains electricity switch.
