Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The packing material protects the tumble dryer from transport damage. The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are recycled.
Disposing 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 the appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your Chartered Agent for advice.
Ensure that your old appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
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. Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading gives poorer quality of drying and may cause unnecessary creasing.
–Make sure that the room temperature is not too high. If there are other heat producing appliances in the room in which the dryer is located, make sure the room is well ventilated and switch the other appliances off if possible.
–After every cycle, remove the fluff from the surfaces and the fluff filters (see "Cleaning and Care").

7
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before setting up the tumble dryer, check it for any externally visible damage.
Do not install or use a damaged tumble dryer.
Before connecting the tumble dryer, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is observed and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the tumble dryer to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the tumble dryer (e.g. danger of overheating).
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved service technician, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the guarantee. Ensure current is not supplied to the tumble dryer 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 tumble dryer be guaranteed.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
The tumble dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in the event of a fault and during cleaning and maintenance.
The tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).
Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless authorised to do so by Miele.
Heat pump technology and refrigerant:
The heat pump in this tumble dryer uses a refrigerant which is condensed by the compressor and led in a closed circuit through the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange with the circulating drying air takes place.
–The humming noises caused by the heat pump are normal and do not impair the efficient functioning of the dryer.
–The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
–In general it is not necessary to leave the dryer standing for any length of time before it is put into operation provided it has been transported correctly (see "Installation").
However, if it has not been transported as described, ensure that the recommended standing time prior to first operation is observed. Otherwise the heat pump can be damaged.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the tumble dryer 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 guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried in this appliance:
–items which have not been washed.
–items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly cleaned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other deposits (such as cosmetics, lotions etc).
If items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that these might self-ignite when heated, even after they have been removed from the dryer at the end of the programme.
–items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of acetone, alcohol, benzine, petrol, kerosene, stain remover, turpentine, wax and wax remover or other chemicals.
–items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances.
When washing such heavily soiled items, ensure that you use additional detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt, wash the items several times.
Remove all items such as lighters and matches from pockets.
Warning: Do not switch the tumble dryer off before the drying programme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung up or spread out to cool it down.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be tumble dried:
–items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional dry-cleaning agents).
–fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex foam rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles and items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.
–damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of igniting in the dryer.
In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling down phase to ensure that the items are not too hot to handle when you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry self-igniting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down phase has been completed.
As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the drum.
Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the door, as this can cause the tumble dryer to tip up.
Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the danger of:
–children climbing into the dryer or hiding things in it.
–pets or other small animals climbing into it.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
The tumble dryer must not be used:
–without the fluff filters in place or if the fluff filters are damaged in any way.
–without the fine filters in place of if the fine filters are damaged in any way.
This would cause an excessive build-up of fluff which in turn would cause a fault.
After every cycle remove fluff from the surfaces of the fluff filters.
The fluff filters and the fine filters must be thoroughly dried after cleaning. Damp or wet filters could cause operational faults.
Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the tumble dryer may not be able to operate properly. There is a risk of damage if the condensed water is allowed to freeze in the pump and in the drain hose.
If the water is drained externally 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 tumble dryer free of dust and fluff. Dust drawn into the tumble dryer can cause blockages in the heat exchanger unit over time.
The tumble dryer must not be hosed down.

Operating the tumble dryer
The following information appears in the display:
–Programme duration
–Programme sequence
Drying Cooling down Finish
–Check and fault messages
The following can be set via the display:
–Programme duration Warm air
–Delay start
You can set a programme to start automatically at a later time.
–Programmable functions
The programmable functions are used to alter the machine's electronics to suit changing requirements. See "Programmable functions" later in this booklet for more details.
The Perfect Dry indicator light remains dark during the following time controlled programmes: Woollens, Warm air, Gentle smoothing.
Estimated time remaining
The expected time will automatically be displayed (Estimated time remaining). The following factors all affect the estimated time remaining: residual moisture content after spinning; type of fabric; size of load; room temperature or fluctuations in the power supply. The electronics continually assess conditions in the tumble dryer 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, programmes may finish early. This can happen with particularly fine fabrics, very small loads or if items were partly dry beforehand.
Perfect Dry indicator light
The Perfect Dry system measures the laundry's residual moisture in programmes with drying levels and provides a more precise drying result. After starting the programme, the electronics will measure the duration of the programme (Estimated time remaining). The Perfect Dry indicator light will flash during this time.
The programme duration will be shown after a short time and the indicator light will go out.
Once the selected drying level has been reached, the Perfect Dry indicator light will remain on until the end of the programme.
Before using for the first time
Install and connect the tumble dryer according to the descriptions in these operating instructions. If the tumble dryer has not been transported as described, then it must be left to stand for at least 1 hour before it is connected to the electricity supply.

Tips on drying
–See the "Programme chart" for maximum recommended loads for each programme.
Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry, give a disappointing drying result and cause more creasing.
–Do not tumble dry loopknit garments! Spin garments for at least 30 seconds after washing.
–Open jackets so that they can dry evenly.
–Use the Automatic plus programme for drying mixed loads of cottons, colours and minimum iron fabrics.
–Pure linen may become rough. Pure linen should only be machine dried if specified as suitable by the manufacturer on the care label.
–Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts, underwear) have a tendency to shrink after the first wash. Therefore: To avoid further shrinking, do not overdry these fabrics. When buying loopknit garments, it is advisable to take their shrinkage properties into account.
–Creasing in minimum iron fabrics increases with the size of the load. This applies in particular to very sensitive fabrics (e.g. shirts, blouses).
Choose a suitable programme for these fabrics. If in doubt, reduce the size of the load and select the Gentle tumble Extra option.
–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 separately from light coloured garments. Do not dry these together with light garments as they may lose their colour (also onto plastic components in the tumble dryer). Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa.

Removing the laundry at the end of the programme
0 and Finish will appear in the display to indicate that the programme has finished. The buzzer (if selected) will sound at intervals.
After the programme has finished, the drum will continue to rotate for 2 hours at intervals if the garments are not immediately removed. This reduces creasing.
There is no anti-crease with: Woollens.
The dryer has a standby mode. After a programme has finished, the display will switch off and the Start/Stop button light will flash slowly. Also see "Programmable functions".

Remove the laundry.
Check that all items have been removed from the drum. If items are left in the dryer, they could be damaged by overdrying when the dryer is next used.
If the dryer is switched on and the door is opened, the drum lighting will come on. It will go out a few minutes later to save energy.
Switch off the dryer by pressing thebutton.
Clean the fluff filters.
Close the door.
