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 should 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.
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 it with
your household waste.
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 a 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 of the fluff filters
(see "Cleaning and Care").
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste recycling centre or
contact your dealer for advice. Ensure
that it presents no danger to children
while being stored for disposal.

are marked on the manufacturer's care
label as being suitable for tumble
It is essential to read these
~
instructions.
This tumble dryer conforms to
current safety requirements.
Inappropriate use can, however,
lead to personal injury and damage
to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the tumble dryer, please
read these instructions carefully
before using it for the first time. They
contain important information on its
safety, installation, use and
maintenance.

place and ensure that new users are
familiar with the content. Pass them
on to any future owner.
drying. If using "Dry cleaning kits" for
freshening up garments in a tumble
dryer do so at your own risk, and follow
the instructions on the packaging.
Any other usage is not supported by
the manufacturer and could be
dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable
for damage resulting from incorrect or
improper use or operation of the tumble
dryer.
This tumble dryer is not intended for
~
outdoor use.
This appliance is not intended for
~
use by people with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience or knowledge, unless
they are supervised whilst using it or
have been shown how to use it
correctly by a person responsible for
their safety.
Correct application
This tumble dryer is not designed for
~
commercial use. It is intended for use in
domestic households and in similar
working and residential environments
such as:
–
Shops
–
Offices and showrooms
and by residents in establishments
such as
–
Hostels and guest houses
6
Safety with children
Keep children away from the tumble
~
dryer at all times. It is not a toy! To
avoid the risk of injury do not allow
them to play on or near it or to play with
its controls. Supervise children whilst
you are using it.
Older children may only use it if its
~
operation has been clearly explained to
them, and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of incorrect
use.
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 connected
load) 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
continuity is complete between it and
an effective earthing system which
complies with current local and national
safety 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. Miele cannot be
held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g.
electric shock).
The heat pump technology in the
~
tumble dryer uses a refrigerant which is
condensed by a compressor and led in
a closed circuit through the heat
exchanger unit where heat exchange
with the circulating drying air takes
place.
It is normal for humming noises caused
by the heat pump technology to be
heard during the drying process. This
does 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 connected to the
mains provided it has been
transported and installed correctly
(see "Installation").
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).
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.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
tumble dryer until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
If the connection cable is faulty it
~
must only be replaced by a Miele
approved service technician to protect
the user from danger.
In the event of a fault or for cleaning
~
purposes, the tumble dryer 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 disconnected, or
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
This appliance 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.
In countries where there are 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.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
To prevent the risk of fire, the
~
following textiles must not be dried in
this tumble dryer:
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 ignite when heated, even after
they have been removed from the
dryer at the end of the programme.
– items (e.g. mops and floorheads)
which have been treated with
inflammable cleaning agents or
contain residues of acetone, alcohol,
benzine, petrol, stain remover,
turpentine, wax, 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 sufficient
detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
To prevent the risk of fire, the
~
following must not be dried in this
tumble dryer:
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 it 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.
Ensure that you always wait until the
end of the programme before removing
the laundry.
Warning: Do not switch the tumble
~
dryer off before the end of the drying
programme. If this was done and the
laundry was then removed immediately
it could give off a great amount of heat.
Fabric conditioner and similar
~
products must be used according to
the instructions on the manufacturer's
packaging.
9
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 or 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 (see
"Cleaning and Care").
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.
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.
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 onto or into the
–
dryer or hiding things in it.
pets or other small animals climbing
–
into it.
The tumble dryer must not be hosed
~
down.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts
~
and accessories with this tumble dryer.
If non-Miele parts are used, guarantee,
performance and product liability
claims may be invalidated.
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.

Perfect Dry indicator
The Perfect Dry system measures the
residual content in the laundry in the
sensor drying programmes to ensure
perfect drying results.
After a programme has started, the
electronics will estimate the duration of
the programme (time remaining).
The Perfect Dry indicator will flash while
this is happening.
After a short while, the programme
duration will appear in the display and
the indicator will go out.
The Perfect Dry indicator will light up
again when the selected drying level is

programme is finished.
The Perfect Dry indicator does not light
up during time controlled programmes:
Woollens, Silks, Drying basket prog.,
Cool air, Warm air, Gentle smoothing.
Programme duration /
Estimated time remaining
The estimated duration (time remaining)
will appear in the display.
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 assess conditions in the
appliance 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.
Programmes can also finish earlier than
expected, if, for example, particularly
fine fabrics are being dried, the load is
very small or items were partially dry
beforehand.

clean clothing. Items must be suitable
for drying in a tumble dryer. Dampen
the garments a little beforehand or add
a fabric conditioner sheet. Odours will
not be removed as effectively from any
parts of the garments which are made
of synthetic fibres.
Anti-crease
After the programme has finished, the
drum will rotate, depending on the
programme selected, for 2 hours in a
special rhythm. This "anti-crease
rhythm" helps to prevent laundry
creasing, if you do not wish to remove it
immediately.
Gentle tumble
For drying items which can be dried in
a tumble dryer but which are
particularly susceptible to creasing or
which are not suitable for drying with a
great deal of mechanical action. When
this option is selected, the drum will
rotate less frequently.
The programme duration is longer.
Buzzer
A buzzer sounds (at intervals for a
maximum of 1 hr) to let you know the
programme has finished.
The buzzer will always sound when
there is a fault, even if it has been
switched off.
Note:
You can alter the duration of the
anti-crease phase, the volume of the
buzzer and the drying levels of some
programmes (see "Settings menu").

An unsatisfactory drying result
Problem Possible cause Remedy
The laundry is not
sufficiently dry.
Feather filled pillows
smell after drying.
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
There is a build-up of
fluff.
* You can alter the drying levels for some programmes (see "Settings menu").
The load consisted of
different fabrics.
Feathers are a natural
product and this is quite
normal.
Synthetic fibres tend to
attract static charge.
Fluff is principally the
result of friction when
garments are being worn
and to some extent when
they are being washed.
Machine drying hardly
causes any fluff to form
and has no appreciable
effect on the lifetime of
the fabric.
Finish drying using the
–
Warm air programme.
Select a different
–
programme next time*.
The smell will dissipate
after sufficient airing.
Static charge can be
reduced by adding a
fabric conditioner to the
final rinse in the washing
programme or a fabric
conditioner sheet to the
load when drying.
Fluff is collected by the
fluff filters and can be
removed easily (see
"Cleaning and care").

Installation
If transporting the dryer at an
,
angle, only tip it towards its left side.
Transporting the dryer
When moving the dryer, hold it by the
lid where it protrudes to the rear. To
manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing
case to its installation site you will also
need to hold it by the front feet.
,
Only transport the dryer as
shown in the following illustrations.
,
If the tumble dryer has not been
transported as described, then it
must be left to stand for at least 1
hour before
electricity supply. Otherwise the
heat pump can be damaged.
it is connected to the
45
Installation
Before moving the tumble dryer
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 dryer is tipped up when it is
being moved. It is therefore a good
idea to run the Cool air programme for
approximately 1 minute before moving
it. Any remaining condensed water will
then be fed into the condensed water
container or out through the drain hose.
Installation site
Make sure the dryer door can be
,
opened without hindrance after
installation.
,
The machine lid must not be
removed.
Levelling the machine
The dryer must be perfectly level to
ensure safe and proper operation.
,
This machine is not suitable for
building under a worktop.
,
The cool air intake panel at the
front of the dryer must not be
blocked or covered, e.g. by a
laundry basket, as this would cause
a fault.
,
It is very important to avoid a
build up of heat.
The warm air which is expelled from
the rear of the dryer must be able to
dissipate. Warm air which cannot
dissipate could cause a fault.
46
^
The screw feet can be adjusted to
compensate for any unevenness in
the floor.
,
Do not block the gap between
the bottom of the tumble dryer and
the floor with plinth facings, deep
pile carpet etc. This would hinder a
sufficient flow of air to the dryer.

General notes
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 tumble dryer is installed near a sink,
drain outlet etc. so that the condensed
water container does not have to be
emptied.
Drain hose length ............1.50 m
Maximum delivery head .......1.50 m
Maximum drain hose length ....4.00 m
If the on-site water drainage
,
system is not fitted with a non-return
valve or an appropriate air gap, one
must be fitted to prevent the risk of
back-flow. (See "Installation conditions
requiring a non-return valve").
There will be a small amount of
^
residual water in the drain hose.
Have a container ready to collect
this.
^ Pull the hose off its connection (see
arrow).
^ Allow any residual water to run into
the container.
^ Unwind the hose and pull it carefully
out of the holders.
The following optional accessories are
available:
–
an extension hose
–
a non-return valve kit for connection
to an external condensed water
outlet (includes an extension hose).
Maximum delivery head with
non-return valve fitted: 1.00 m
Arranging the drain hose
,
Do not pull on the drain hose and
do not stretch it or allow it to become
kinked as it could get damaged.
^
Position the hose to the right or left
hand side as necessary.
Leave the hose in the middle holder to
prevent it from becoming kinked
inadvertently.
47
Installation
External drainage via a sink or gully
See "Front view" illustration.
^
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.
Installation conditions requiring a
non-return valve
Certain installation conditions
,
require the fitting of a non-return
valve for external water
connection (available as an
optional accessory). A non-return
valve will prevent the risk of
back-flow out of the dryer which
could cause damage.
Example: Connection to a sink drain
outlet
The drain hose with non-return valve
fitted can be connected directly to a
suitable sink drain outlet.
^ Remove the following from the back
of the dryer at the top:
Adapter 1 and hose clip 3 behind it.
A non-return valve is required:
–
If the tumble dryer is connected to a
sink drain outlet (see the following
section).
–
If the tumble dryer is connected to a
drainage system already in use by
another appliance, e.g. a dishwasher
or washing machine.

using nut 2.
If this nut has a flat disc in it you
should take the disc out first.
Attach the end of hose 4 to adapter
^
1.
Use a screwdriver to tighten hose
^
clip 3 up close to the nut.
Non-return valve 5 has to be
,
fitted with the arrow pointing in the
direction of flow (i.e. towards the
sink). Otherwise water will not drain
out of the appliance.
^ Fit non-return valve 5 to tumble dryer
drain hose 6 (make sure it is fitted in
the correct direction - see arrow on
non-return valve).
^ Secure the non-return valve using
hose clips.
