fire, electric shock, or injury to per
sons when using your appliance, fol
low basic precautions, including the
following:
Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
Do not dry articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed,
soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, or other flamma
ble or explosive substances. They 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
from 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 appli
ance where it will be exposed to
the weather.
-
-
Do not use fabric softeners or
products to eliminate static in the
dryer. Best results occur when a liquid
-
softener is used in the washing ma
chine.
Do not use heat to dry articles con
taining foam rubber or similarly tex
tured rubber-like materials.
Items containing, hairspray, nail pol
–
ish 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 and exhaust duct should be cleaned peri-
odically 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!

Do not tamper
with the controls.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any ser
vicing unless specifically recom
mended in these Operating Instruc
tions. Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be performed by qualified
personnel. Incorrectly repaired ma
chines may pose a considerable risk to
the user.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of malfunction or break
down, 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 con
ductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electri
cian or service representative or per
sonnel if you are in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded.
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.

This dryer must be vented out
doors.
Install the venting in such a way
that the expelled air cannot be
drawn back into the machine.
Do not vent the dryer into a chim

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Disposal of the packing
materials
The cardboard box and packing materi
als protect the appliance during ship
ping. 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. Dan
ger of suffocation! Please recycle.
-
-
Disposal of an old appliance
Old appliances may contain materials
that can be recycled. Please contact
your local recycling authority about the
possibilty of recycling these materials.
Ensure that the appliance presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal. Before discarding an old
appliance, unplug it from the outlet and
cut off its power cord and remove any
doors to prevent hazards.
20
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Level the dryer
The dryer must be level to ensure safe
and proper operation. Minor discrepancies do not, however, have an adverse
effect on operation.
An air flow gap of3/8" (10 mm) must
be provided between the machine
and the floor. This air flow gap must
not be blocked by a toekick or thick
piled carpets.
The tumble dryer can also be placed
on top of a Miele washing machine for a
stacked installation. An appropriate
stacking kit is required.
The stacking kit, part # 12 996 030, is
available from your Miele dealer or the
Miele Technical Service Department.
^
The machine can be leveled by turn
ing the legs clockwise or counter
clockwise as necessary.

21
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
For best drying results, avoid extra long
ducting with too many bends or angles.
Avoid ducting in tight corners.
Use flexible metal pipe or rigid metal
pipe for venting. Non-metallic flexible
hose should not be used since it is a
potential fire hazard.
The shorter the exhaust ductwork, the
more efficient the dryer will be. Ex
pelled air is slowed down in the ducts
due to friction against the inner walls.
The shorter and smoother the inner
walls are, the less friction that will be
created.
An elbow or bend creates more friction
than a straight duct. An additional duct
length factor must therefore be added
for each elbow or bend (see Table 1.)
This factor expresses the restistance of
the bend in terms of a straight length of
duct.
The additional length factor is then
added to the measured duct length to
give the effective duct length.
A larger duct diameter helps to reduce
friction. The duct diameter should
therefore be increased with increasing
duct length.
-
22
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Calculate the effective duct
length
The overall duct length will determine
the duct diameter.
Measure the actual duct length
^
needed:
1. Establish the number of elbows or
bends necessary, noting the type of
bend, angle and radius involved
(see, Table 1).
2. Add the additional duct length as
specified in Table 1 to the actual
duct length to get the effective duct
length.
3. The necessary duct diameter can
then be found in Table 2.
Note:
Drying times and energy consumption
remain unaltered for 4" (100 mm) duct
up to a total length of 66 ft. (20 m). Longer ducts may lead to slight increases,
but, the function will not be impaired as
long as the necessary duct diameter is
used (Table 2).
