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 can normally 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!
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances 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 appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of your appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a competent person. The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.
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 (see Programme chart).
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.
–Make sure the fluff filters are clean before using the dryer.
–Check the condenser unit from time to time and clean it when necessary.

6
Warning and Safety instructions
In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the machine is
only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or
–it is switched off at the mains, or
–the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Operation
This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
The dryer must not be used without the fluff filters in place or if the fluff
filters are damaged in any way.
The dryer must not be used without condenser unit in place.
The machine must not be used without the hygiene filter in place.
The fluff filters must be thoroughly dried after cleaning. If they are
damp or wet when replaced there is a risk of faults occurring when the machine is used.
Do not install the machine in a room where there is a risk of frost
occurring. Do not install the machine in a room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the machine may not be able to operate properly.
There is a risk of damage if the condensed water is allowed to freeze in the pump, hoses and / or condensed water container.
The ambient room temperature should be between +2°C and +35°C.
If the water is drained externally through the drain hose instead of
being collected in the 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.
Always keep the area around the machine free of dust and fluff.
Over time dust drawn into the machine with the room air which is used to cool the condenser unit could block the hygiene filter and condenser unit. Where excessive dust has collected it may be necessary to replace the hygiene filter more frequently than waiting until the indicator lights up.

Guide to the machine
Programmes
–Standard drying programmes for Cotton and Minimum iron fabrics
–Allerdry programme for drying garments where high standards of hygiene are required, suitable for allergy sufferers for example.
–Special Smoothing and Woollens hand care programmes
–Timed drying programmes
Display
The display shows:
–the programme duration (time remaining);
–the delay start time;
–programmable functions. Estimated time remaining
When a programme is selected the estimated drying time will appear in the display. Please be aware that it is only an estimate!
The following factors all affect the estimated time remaining: Residual moisture content after spinning; type of fabric; size of load; room temperature; fluctuations in power supply.
The electronics continually assess conditions in the machine and adjust the estimated time remaining for a more accurate reading. Because of this the time displayed can alter during the course of a programme.
In the same way, the Woollens hand care and Smoothing programmes can finish earlier than expected if a certain temperature is reached. This can
happen with particularly fine fabrics or if items were partly dry beforehand.
PC / Optical interface
The indicator light marked PC can used by Miele Service technicians as an optical interface to update your machine in future years.
Programmable functions
– For changing the standard settings.
Drum lighting
If the dryer is switched on, the drum lighting will come on when the door is opened. It will go out after a short while if the door is left open to save energy.
10
Guide to the machine
Drying air
The drying air in the drum circulates in a closed system and is condensed in the condenser unit. The condensed water is then collected or can be pumped away.
Fluff builds up on garments when they are being worn and washed. This fluff is collected by the fluff filters in the door and the door opening.
Hygiene filter for room air used for cooling the condenser unit
The hygiene filter filters the air from the room which the dryer takes in to cool the condenser unit. The filtered room air which has been warmed by the condenser unit is then expelled from the back of the dryer.
The hygiene filter must be replaced with a new one when the Change filter indicator light comes on.
The machine must not be used without the hygiene filter in place.
Without the hygiene filter in place, the dryer will take in more room air which will in turn cool the condenser unit more and cause a lower drying temperature. A reduction in the drying temperature will mean that micro-organisms are not deactivated. The noise level during drying will also increase.
Please note that the programme durations will be longer if the hygiene filter is not replaced when the indicator light comes on.

Notes on laundry care
Care symbols
Before drying check the drying symbol on the care label. If there are no symbols, dry at your own risk!
q . . . . . . . . . Dry at normal temperature r . . . . . . . . . . Dry at a low temperature s . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Do not tumble dry
Tips on drying
–Always observe the maximum recommended loads given in the "Programme chart". Never overload the drum.
Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry, give a disappointing drying result and cause more creasing.
–Do not put soaking wet items into the tumble dryer. Spin them thoroughly after washing using the appropriate spin speed.
–For delicates and fabrics with the following care label r select Low temperature or use the allerdry - Minimum iron programme.
–Open jackets so that they can dry evenly.
–Woollens and wool blends tend to become matted and shrink if dried in a tumble dryer. They can, however, be partially dried using the Woollens hand care programme.
–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.
–Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts and underwear) tend to shrink depending on their quality. Do not over-dry these textiles. When purchasing these garments it is advisable to take their shrinkage properties into account.
–Minimum iron fabrics and 100% cotton shirts or blouses tend to crease more, the greater the load. This is especially true of very fine weaves.
Reduce the load or use the Minimum iron - Hand iron programme.
–Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.
–New dark coloured garments should be washed and dried separately from light coloured garments to avoid the danger of colours running and discolouring other garments or even plastic components in the machine. Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa.
