Caring for the environment
Disposal of packaging material
The packaging material protects the
dryer from transport damage. The
packaging materials used are selected
from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also the
amount of waste. You can return the
packaging to your Miele dealer.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain valuable materials. They also
contain certain substances, compounds
and components which were essential
for the proper functioning and safe use
of the equipment. Handling these
materials improperly by disposing of
them in your household waste can be
harmful to your health and the
environment. Therefore, please do not
dispose of your old appliance with
regular household waste and follow
local regulations on proper disposal.
Consult with local authorities, dealers or
Miele in order to dispose of and recycle
electrical and electronic appliances.
Miele assumes no responsibility for
deleting any personal data left on the
appliance being disposed. Please
ensure that your old appliance is kept
away from children until removal.

7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important information regarding use of fabric softener sheets:
We do not recommend use of fabric softener sheets. Use of fabric
softener sheets can clog the surfaces of the lint filters, extending the
drying time and increasing energy consumption. During subsequent
cleaning, the plastic and surfaces of the lint filters can be damaged!
The best results are obtained by using liquid fabric softener in the
washing machine. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
If you still wish to use fabric softener sheets, be sure to follow the
cleaning instructions under "Cleaning and care" in the "Cleaning
instructions when using fabric softener sheets" section.
Tip:
Using a fragrance capsule (optional accessory) will add a pleasant
fragrance to your laundry.
When a fragrance capsule is used, the fragrance is acquired by the
entire load of laundry. The disadvantage of fabric softener sheets is
that under certain circumstances the fragrance is acquired by only a
few items of laundry, especially when drying a full load.
When you use a fragrance capsule, always follow the
warnings in this section as well as those under "Fragrance
capsule".
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this dryer:
– items which have not been washed.
– items, such as work-wear, exposed to grease, oils, or other
deposits (such as lotions or cosmetics) in your dryer. If these
items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that
they may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the
laundry to ignite when heated even after being removed from the
dryer.
– items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable
or explosive substances. They may give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
– items treated with flammable cleaning agents or items containing
acetone, alcohol, petrol, stain remover, wax or chemicals from
buffing, etc.
– items which have been splashed with hair spray, nail polish
remover, etc.
When washing heavily soiled items ensure that sufficient detergent
is used with a high temperature. If in doubt wash the item several
times.
– items containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like
materials.
– items with padding or filling (e.g. pillows or jackets) which have
been damaged. Loose filling could catch fire.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Allow the dryer to complete each stage of the program selected,
including the cooling down phase. This will ensure that the items
being removed are not too hot to handle.
Clean the lint filter before or after each load.
Keep the area around the air intake (toe kick) and adjacent
surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by
qualified personnel.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, 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
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
10

a Miele authorized person or by Miele Technical Service.
11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Heat pump technology and refrigerant:
The heat pump in this tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which
is condensed by the compressor. The refrigerant, which is brought to
a higher temperature level and liquified by condensing, is led in a
closed circuit through the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange
with the circulating drying air takes place.
After installation, downtime of 1 hour is required before
connecting the tumble dryer to the electricity supply.
Otherwise, the heat pump could be damaged.
– The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. This does not impair the efficient functioning
of the dryer.
– The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
– This tumble dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gases.
Hermetically sealed.

Amount of refrigerant: 17.6 oz (0.5) kg
Global warming potential of refrigerant: 1430 kg CO2 e
Global warming potential of appliance: 715 kg CO2 e
This product may contain chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Using a fragrance capsule (optional accessory)
Only use genuine Miele original fragrance capsules.
Store the fragrance capsule in its original packaging.
Caution: The fragrance can leak out of the capsule! Make sure
that you always keep the capsule, or the lint filter with the capsule
inserted in it, in a horizontal position when carrying and do not tip or
place it down on any surface.
Use an absorbent cloth to wipe up any fragrance which has
leaked out of the capsule onto the floor, the dryer or any dryer
components (e.g. the lint filter) immediately.
If fragrance comes in contact with the body: Wash skin
thoroughly with soap and water. Flush eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes. If swallowed, rinse mouth thoroughly with clean
water. Seek medical attention if the fragrance comes in contact with
the eyes or is swallowed!
Immediately change clothes that have come in contact with the
fragrance. Thoroughly wash clothing or fabric using a large amount
of water and detergent.
There is the risk of fire or damage to the tumble dryer if the
following instructions are not observed:
– Never refill a capsule with fragrance or any other substance.
– Never use a faulty fragrance capsule.

Energy saving tips
This dryer is designed for energysaving drying cycles thanks to its heat
pump technology. However, you can
save a little more energy with the
following measures as the drying time
is not extended unnecessarily.
– Make sure your laundry is spun at the
maximum spin speed before drying.
The higher the spin speed, the
greater the savings that can be made
in energy and time during drying,
e.g., approx. 20% energy can be
saved if spun at 1600rpm instead of
1000rpm.
– Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for
the program being used. This will
mean that the energy consumption
for the amount of laundry is at its
most economical.
– 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.
– Clean the lint filters in the door
opening after every drying cycle.
18
Functioning of the heat-pump dryer
Two separate circuits ensure that the
laundry is dried:
Dry air circuit
The drying air flows through a heat
exchanger, the drum, and several
filters. This is ensured by a blower in
the dryer.
– The drying air flows through the heat
exchanger in the longitudinal
direction and is heated in the rear
area.
– The drying air is then blown into the
drum, where it absorbs the moisture
of the laundry.
– The damp drying air is blown back
through the heat exchanger via
several filters in the fill area and the
plinth area of the dryer.
– The drying air cools down in the
front, cool area of the heat
exchanger, and loses its moisture.
– The circuit begins anew.
Refrigerant circuit
The refrigerant circuit regulates the
heating and cooling of the drying air
through the heat exchanger. The heat
pump is the central component: This
is a compressor that is connected to a
pipeline system which is filled with
refrigerant.
– The pipeline system surrounds the
heat exchanger in several bends.
– The compressor draws in the
gaseous refrigerant and compresses
it, causing the temperature to rise.
– The hot refrigerant is passed through
the pipeline system to the rear of the
heat exchanger. The heat is released
into the drying air, which flows
through the heat exchanger.
– The refrigerant liquifies by dissipating
the heat.
– The liquid refrigerant then flows
through a capillary tube (a very thin
tube) to the front area of the heat
exchanger. This changes the
pressure of the refrigerant.
– The refrigerant cools and reverts to
its gaseous state. This in turn cools
the front area of the heat exchanger
and dehumidifies the drying air.
– The circuit begins anew.

1. Notes on correct laundry care
Points to note regarding washed laundry
– When washing very heavily soiled
items, ensure that you use sufficient
detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
– Do not load the drum with items that
are still soaking wet. Make sure your
laundry is spun at the maximum spin
speed before drying. The higher the
spin speed, the greater the savings
that can be made in energy and time
during drying.
– New dark colored garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light colored garments. There is the
risk of colors running and discoloring
other garments or even plastic
components in the dryer. Dark
colored fibers can also settle on light
colored garments and vice versa.
– Starched laundry can be tumble
dried. To achieve the usual finish,
double the amount of starch should
be used.
Preparing the laundry before drying
Ensure that any foreign objects
(e.g., detergent dispensing balls,
lighters, etc.) have been removed
from the laundry.
Such items could melt or explode
and cause damage to the dryer or
the laundry.
See "Important safety
instructions" for further information.
Using the tumble dryer incorrectly
could cause a fire.
– Sort the laundry according to the type
of fiber and weave, size, garment
care label symbol, and the drying
level required.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
This way you will avoid the danger of
fillings coming out. These could catch
fire when being dried.
– Untangle the laundry.
– Tie together textile belts and apron
ties.
– Fasten . . .
. . . Duvet covers and pillow cases to
prevent small items from being rolled
up inside them
. . . Hooks and eyes
– Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
– Leave jackets open and undo any
long zips so that textiles dry evenly.
– Minimum iron fabric tends to crease
more, the larger the load. This is
particularly the case for garments
made from very fine weave fabric,
such as dress shirts or blouses. If
necessary, reduce the size of the load
for these types of fabric.

Laundry care when drying in a tumble dryer
See the "Program chart".
This describes the programs and
gives their maximum load.
– Always observe the maximum
recommended load for each
program. This will mean that the
energy consumption for the amount
of laundry is at its most economical.
– Woolens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if tumble
dried. Only use the Woolens/Silks
program for these items.
– Jersey fabrics (e.g., T-shirts,
underwear) tend to shrink when they
are washed for the first time.
Therefore, do not overdry the fabrics
to prevent them from shrinking
further. Buy jersey fabrics that are
one or two sizes bigger.
– Select the Gentle option for fabric
which is particularly heat-sensitive or
susceptible to creasing.
Selecting the right drying level
– Extra dry or Normal Plus if you want
to fold the laundry after drying and
put it in the closet.
– Normal or Slightly dry for textiles that
can shrink. Or for light cotton or
jersey textiles.
– Hand iron or Machine iron if you want
to iron the laundry after drying.
– Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink,
depending on the quality of the item.
Only use the Smoothing program for
these items.
– You should only tumble dry pure linen
if it is specified as suitable by the
manufacturer on the care label, as
the surface of the fabric may
otherwise become rough. Only use
the Smoothing program for these
items.
