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:
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
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.
Do not dry articles 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.
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 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 use fabric softener sheets
to eliminate static in this dryer. Best results are achieved when a liquid softener is used in the washer.
Do not use heat to dry articles
containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials, or items containing hair spray, nail polish remover or similar substances.
Clean the lint filter before or after
each load.
Keep the area around the air intake
(toekick) and adjacent surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
The interior of the machine should
be cleaned periodically by qualified personnel.
Do not place items exposed to oils
in your dryer. Items contaminated with oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the laundry to catch fire.
This dryer is intended for residential use only!

The dryer comes with a 5 ft long, 12/4 AWG cord and a NEMA 14-30 P plug.
It should be connected to a 120/208-240 V, 15 A, 60 Hz AC power supply. A 3 pole-4 wire grounding power outlet (NEMA type 14-30 R) is necessary.

Installation tips
An airflow gap of3/8" (10 mm) must be provided between the machine and the floor. This airflow gap must not be blocked by a toekick or thick piled carpets.
Do not install the dryer next to a refrigerator. The warm air exhausting from the dryer can affect the thermostat of the refrigerator, causing it to run continuously.
Leveling the dryer
^ The dryer must be level to ensure
safe and proper operation.
^
The machine can be leveled by turning the legs clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary.

Installation
External water drain
When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can also be drained directly if the machine is installed near a sink or a stand pipe so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied.
The drain hose (approx. 6 ft [2 m] long) is stored in the dryer. It must be pulled out of the dryer to its full extent to ensure proper external draining. Maximum delivery head: 4 ft (1.2 m).
If the hose is not long enough, an extension hose is available as an optional accessory from the Miele.
Pulling out the drain hose
