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. Observe safety requirements for appliances that may tip over or pose an entrapment hazard.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

 WARNING This tumble dryer is intended for use in domestic households and similar working and residential environments.

 It is essential to read all instructions before using the appliance.  Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close

supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children. Always close the door after use to prevent child hazards.

 Before this appliance is removed for service or discarded, remove

the door to the drying compartment.

 Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.  Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to

the weather.

 Do not tamper with the controls.  Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any

servicing unless specifically recommended in these operating instructions. Repairs to electrical appliances should only be performed by qualified personnel. Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user.

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".

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.

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.

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 1600rpm instead of 1000rpm.

– 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.

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.

Extra options

Anti-crease

Gentle

Buzzer

Freshen up

The drying programs can be augmented with various extra options. However, Freshen up and Gentle cannot be combined.

Gentle

Delicate fabrics (with the  symbol on the care label, e.g., acrylic garments) are dried at a lower temperature and the program duration is longer.

Freshen-up

You can use the Freshen up option to help remove or reduce odors in clean (dry or damp) clothing.

The drying air is heated up for a specific length of time. After this, the garments are aired to the Normal drying level without any more heat being added. The drying level cannot be altered.

the dryer must not be blocked or covered. This would hinder a sufficient intake of cool air for the heat exchanger.

 Do not block the gap between

the bottom of the tumble dryer and the floor with toekicks, deep pile carpet, etc. This would otherwise hinder a sufficient flow of air to the tumble dryer.

The hot air that is blown out from the heat exchanger warms the room air. Ensure sufficient ventilation of the room: e.g., open the window. The drying time will otherwise take longer (higher energy requirement).

The screw feet can be adjusted to compensate for unevenness in the floor.

Before moving the tumble dryer again

A small quantity of condensed water that remains in the area around the pump after the drying process can run out if the dryer is tilted. Recommendation: Start the Time Dry program for approx. 1 minute before transporting the dryer. Any remaining condensed water will then be fed into

the condensed water container (which you will need to empty again) or out through the drain hose.

Additional installation requirements

 All installations must be carried

out in accordance with local regulations.

Slot-in

This tumble dryer is suitable for pushing under a countertop.

 It is very important to avoid a

build-up of heat. The warm air which is expelled from the dryer must be able to dissipate. Warm air which cannot dissipate could cause a fault.

– The appliance lid must not be

removed.

– The electrical socket must be located

in an accessible position near the tumble dryer.

Installing the dryer in a closet

Minimum installation distance

The tumble dryer will then start within the timeframe specified when it receives your signal.
