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.

To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the machine please read
these instructions carefully before
using it for the first time. They
contain important information on its
safety, installation, use and
maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and ensure that new users are
familiar with the content. Pass them
on to any future owner of the
machine.
Correct use
The tumble dryer is only intended
for drying fabrics which have been
washed in a water solution, marked on
the manufacturer's care label as being
suitable for tumble drying.
"Dry cleaning kits" for freshening up
garments in a tumble dryer are
increasingly available on the market. If
using, do so at your own risk, and
follow the instructions provided on the
packaging.
Any other applications may be
dangerous. The manufacturer is not
liable for damage resulting from
improper use or operation.
Technical safety
Before setting up the machine,
check it for any externally visible
damage.
Do not install or use a damaged
machine.
Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage and connected
load) match the mains electricity
supply. If in any doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this
machine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with local and national
regulations. It is most important that this
basic safety requirement is present and
regularly tested, and where there is any
doubt the household wiring system
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).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Warning and Safety instructions
5
The machine is built in accordance
with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in
unforeseen dangers for the user, for
which the manufacturer cannot accept
liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele approved
technician.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
machine until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
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.
If the connection cable is faulty it
must only be replaced by a Miele
approved service technician to protect
the user from danger.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
machine and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the machine guarantee.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
In the event of a fault or for
cleaning purposes, the machine is
only completely isolated from the
electiricty 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 fluff filters must be thoroughly
dried after cleaning. If they are still
damp or wet when replaced there is a
risk of faults occurring when the
machine is used.
The dryer must not be used without
the condenser unit in place.
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. Dust
drawn into the machine can, over time,
cause blockages in the condenser unit.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
To prevent the risk of fire the
following textiles must not be
dried in this machine:
–
fabrics which contain a large
proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber like materials.
–
items which contain padding or
fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets).
–
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 which have not been
thoroughly cleaned and which are
still soiled with grease or oil, e.g.
workwear. Such clothing may require
a heavy duty detergent to get them
clean. If necessary consult the
detergent manufacturer for advice.
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the
door, as this can cause the
machine to tip up.
Always close the door after use.
This way you will avoid the danger
of:
–
children climbing onto or into the
dryer or hiding things in it.
–
pets or other small animals climbing
into it.
Safety with children
This machine is not a toy. To avoid
the risk of injury keep children
away from the machine at all times and
supervise them whilst you are using it.
Do not allow children to play on or near
it or to play with its controls. Supervise
its use by the elderly or infirm.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele.
If non-Miele parts are used with this
machine, guarantee, performance and
product liability claims may be
invalidated.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine,
switch it off at the wall socket and
unplug it. Render the plug useless and
cut off the cable directly behind the
machine. This should be done by a
competent person.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

the programme duration (time
remaining);
–
the delay start time;
–
check messages;
–
programmable functions.
Estimated time remaining
When a programme is selected the
estimated duration (time remaining) 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.

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
–
Cottons, linens and minimum iron
items should be dried using the
appropriate programme for the
degree of dryness required.
–
For delicates and fabrics with the
following care label r select the
Low
temperature
extra option.
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.
–
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, such as shirts or blouses.
Reduce the load or use the
Shirts
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.

separate out the washed laundry and
sort it according to: . .
. . . the drying level required
. . . the type of fibre or weave
. . size
. . the moisture content after spinning.
,
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.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
– Fasten duvet covers and pillow
cases to prevent small items from

General problems
Problem Possible cause Remedy
The tumble dryer fails to
start when switched on.
No obvious cause.
–
Have you followed the
switch-on procedure
correctly (see “How to
dry correctly”)?
– Is the plug correctly
inserted in the socket
and switched on?
– Is the door closed
properly?
– Has the fuse or circuit
breaker tripped?
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
Synthetic fibres tend to
attract static charge.
Static charge can be
reduced by adding a
fabric conditioner to the
final rinse in the washing
machine or a fabric
conditioner sheet to the
load in the dryer.
Problem solving guide
28
Problem Possible cause Remedy
There is a build
up of fluff.
Fluff is principally the result of
friction when garments are
being worn and washed.
Machine drying hardly
causes any fluff to form and
has been established by
research institutes to have no
appreciable effect on the
lifetime of the garment.
Fluff is collected by the fluff
filters and can be easily
removed (see "Cleaning and
Care").
The laundry is
not sufficiently
dry.
The load consisted of
different fabrics.
–
Finish drying using "Warm
air" (timed drying).
–
Select a more suitable
drying programme next
time (see "Programme
chart").
The interior
drum lighting
does not come
on.
The lighting switches off
automatically (to save
energy).
Switch the dryer off and then
on again.
The lamp needs changing. Change the lamp as
described at the end of this
section.
Problem solving guide
29
Problem Possible cause Remedy
The drying process
goes on too long or
even switches off.
Important: Before attempting to remedy one of the
following causes, switch the dryer off and switch on again
to start the programme again.
Ventilation to and from the
dryer may be insufficient
(e.g. because it is installed
in a small room). This has
caused the temperature in
the room to rise sharply.
Open a door or window
while the machine is in
operation for increased air
flow.
The vents below the door
are blocked.
–
Remove any objects that
are blocking the vents.
The fluff filters are clogged
up with fluff or were still wet
when they were replaced.
–
Remove any fluff.
– The fluff filters must be
completely dry.
Detergent residues, hair and
fine fibres can block up the
condenser unit.
Check the condenser unit
from time to time and clean
it if necessary (see
"Cleaning and Care").
The laundry has not been
spun sufficiently.
Make sure that your laundry
is thoroughly spun at the
appropriate spin speed.
The tumble dryer has been
overloaded.
Do not exceed the maximum
load for the programme
selected.
Metallic components, e.g.
zips have prevented the
dryer from registering the
correct moisture level in the
laundry.
–
Open zips next time.
If the problem occurs again,
dry garments with long zips
using "Warm air" (timed
drying).
Problem solving guide
30
Problem Possible cause Remedy
The condenser
unit service panel
will not shut.
The inner cover of the
condenser unit has not been
locked properly and/or the
condenser unit has not been
positioned correctly.
–
Ensure that the
condenser unit is
positioned correctly and
lock the cover.
–
Check the rubber seals.
Water leaks from
the machine after
the condenser unit
has been cleaned.
Fluff has collected at the
bottom of the condenser unit
housing.
–
Use a cloth to remove
any fluff from the inside
of the condenser unit
housing.

Installation site
,
Make sure the dryer door can be
opened without hindrance after
installation.
Transporting the machine to its
installation site
When moving the machine you can
hold it by the lid where it protrudes to
the rear of the dryer.
To manoeuvre the dryer out of its
packing case to its installation site you
will also need to hold it by the front feet.
Building under a continous worktop /
in a row of kitchen units
The dryer should not be installed
next to a refrigerator or freezer. The
warm air expelled from the rear of
the dryer would increase the
temperature around the
refrigerator's/freezer's heat
exchanger causing the compressor
to run continuously.
If it is not possible to install the dryer
anywhere else, then the
refrigerator/freezer must be sealed
off from the dryer.
If you wish to push your machine under
a worktop and there is space to do this
without removing the lid, a building
under kit is not necessary. Otherwise
the building under kit is essential.
,
The building under kit* must be
fitted by a suitably qualified person.
The machine lid is replaced by a
coverplate. It is essential that the
coverplate is fitted to ensure
electrical safety.
The building under kit is supplied with
its own installation instructions.
N.B. When built under running times
may be longer.
– The electrical socket must be
located in an accessible position
near the machine.
With niche heights of:
– 840 mm, longer screw feet* are
required.
–
870/885 mm - 915/930 mm, one or
two height adjustment frames* are
required.
* Available as an optional accessory
from your Miele dealer or the Miele
Spare Parts Department.
Replacing the lid
If the lid has been removed in order to
fit a cover plate, ensure that, if the lid is
replaced, it fits securely into the rear
holders. Otherwise, it is not properly
secure for transport.
Installation
37
Levelling the machine
The machine must be perfectly level to
ensure safe and proper operation.
^
The screw feet can be adjusted to
compensate for any unevenness in
the floor.
,
The ventilation gaps in the plinth
must not be covered over as this
would prevent a sufficient intake of
air.
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 rear 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.
Washer - dryer stack
The tumble dryer can also be
combined with a Miele washing
machine in a washer-dryer stack. To do
this the appropriate stacking kit* (WTV)
to match your washing machine is
required.
* Available as an optional accessory
from your Miele dealer or the Miele
Spare Parts Department.
,
Stacking kits must be fitted by a
suitably qualified fitter.
Before moving the machine again
(e.g. when moving house)
After each use a small quantity of
condensed water will collect in the area
around the pump. This water can run
out if the machine is tipped up when it
is being moved. It is a good idea to run
the
Cool air
programme for
approximately 1 minute before moving
the machine. Any remaining
condensed water will then be fed into
the condensed water container or out
through the drain hose.
Installation
38
External condensed water
outlet
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
off directly if the machine is installed
near a sink, drain outlet etc. so that
the condensed water container does
not have to be emptied.
The drain hose (approx. 2 m long) is
stored in the dryer. It must be pulled
out of the dryer to its full extent if
condensed water is to be drained
externally. Maximum delivery head:
1 m.
If it is not long enough, an extension
hose is available as an optional
accessory through your dealer or from
the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
Setting up the drain hose
From the back of the dryer at the top:
^
Unclip the drain hose from clip (1).
^
Then pull it off holder (2).
From the back of the dryer at the
bottom:
^ Unclip the drain hose from clip (3).
^ Then pull the drain hose completely
out of the dryer towards the left (4)
(See illustration). Important:
,
Do not let the drain hose
become kinked, as this could
damage it.
,
If you want to drain the water off
into a sink you will need to secure
the hose carefully, e.g. by tying it to
a tap to make sure it cannot slip
during use. Otherwise there is a risk
of overflowing water which could
cause damage.
Use the bow-shaped guide to prevent
the drain hose from becoming kinked
(see "Front view" illustration).
Installation
39
Connection to a sink drain outlet
The drain hose can be connected
directly to a sink drain outlet.
^ Remove the following from the back
of the dryer at the bottom:
Adapter 1 and hose clip 3 behind it.
^
Fit adapter 1 to the sink drain outlet
using nut 2.
If this nut has a flat disc in it you should
take the disc out first. Important: if this
nut has a washer or seal in it this must
not be removed!
^
Attach the end of the hose to
adapter 1.
^
Use a screwdriver to tighten hose
clip 3 up close to the nut.
If you no longer wish to use an
external condensed water outlet
,
Do not push the drain hose
back into the dryer. Doing this could
cause it to become kinked and
damaged in the dryer.
^ Loop the drain hose up.
^ Use a suitable cable tie to secure the
looped hose to the back of the dryer,
or simply lay the looped hose behind
the dryer.
^ Attach the open end of the drain
hose back onto the holder at the
back of the dryer at the top (see
holder 2 in "Pulling out the drain
hose").

Electrical connection U.K.
All electrical work should be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person, in strict accordance with
national and local safety regulations.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance until after installation work
has been carried out.
The appliance is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug ready for
connection to a 230-240V mains
supply. The voltage and connected
load are given on the data plate.
Please ensure these match the
household mains supply. The fuse
rating is quoted on the plug.
Connection should be made via a
suitable switched socket which is easily
accessible after installation.
For extra safety it is advisable to install
a residual current device (RCD), with a
trip current of 30 mA (in accordance
with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100 Section
739).
Do not connect via an extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
The fuse cover must be refitted when
changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover
is lost, the plug must not be used until a
suitable replacement is obtained. The
colour of the correct replacement cover
is that of the coloured insert in the base
of the plug, or the colour that is
embossed in words on the base of the
plug (as applicable to the design of
plug fitted).
Replacement fuses should be ASTA
approved to BS 1362 and have the
correct rating. Replacement fuses and
fuse covers may be purchased from
your local electrical supplier.
