Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. 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 reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. 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.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

8
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 (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) matches 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 essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the household wiring system tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Reliable and safe operation of this tumble dryer can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
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 appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
If the connection cable is faulty, it must only be replaced by a
Miele authorised 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 authorised service technician, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
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 circuit breaker.
This tumble dryer must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (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 gaseous refrigerant. The refrigerant, which is brought to a higher temperature and liquefied by condensing, is transferred in a closed circuit through the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange takes place with the circulating drying air.
Damage to the tumble dryer by switching it on too soon. This can damage the heat pump. After setting up the tumble dryer, wait for at least one hour before
switching it on.
– The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. They do not impair the efficient functioning of the dryer.
– The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Please observe the instructions in “Installation” and “Technical
data”.
The plug and socket must be accessible at all times in order to be
able to disconnect the tumble dryer from the power supply.
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 tumble dryer.
Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after
installation.
11
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Warning: Risk of fire / Flammable materials.
To avoid the possible danger of fire, please read these warnings carefully.
A clogged filter is a fire hazard! The fluff filter must be cleaned after every programme.
The maximum load for this tumble dryer is 9.0 kg (dry weight). See
the “Programme chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual programmes.
To prevent the risk of fire, do not connect the tumble dryer via a
controllable socket (e.g. a timer or a peak-load switch-off device). If the drying programme is interrupted before the end of the cooling down phase, this could cause the laundry to self-ignite.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this tumble dryer:
– Items which have not been washed. – Items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional
dry-cleaning agents).
– Items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly
cleaned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other desposits (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 that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil,
acetone, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes, wax removers and other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths).
– Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varnish remover or similar substances.
– 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 fabrics 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.
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.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard. If it is unavoidable that fabrics contaminated with vegetable or cooking oil, or hair care products, be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent - this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
Remove all items from pockets (e.g. lighters, matches).Warning: Ensure that you always wait until the end of the
programme before removing the laundry. If the drying programme is stopped prematurely, remove the laundry immediately and hang it up or spread it out to cool it down.
Fabric softener and similar products must be used according to
the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.
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 self­igniting). 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.
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.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
The tumble dryer must not be used
– without the fluff filters in place or with damaged fluff filters. – without the plinth filter in place or with a damaged plinth filter.
This would cause an excessive build-up of fluff which in turn would cause a fault.
The fluff filters must be cleaned after every drying cycle.
Fluff must not be allowed to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
The fluff filters and the plinth filter must be thoroughly dried after
cleaning. Do not replace them if they are damp or wet. 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 hoses.
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 laundry tub 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 over time.
The tumble dryer must not be hosed down.
15
Warning and Safety instructions

Using a fragrance flacon (optional accessory)

Only use genuine Miele original fragrance flacons.The fragrance flacon must be stored in its packaging so please
make sure you retain this.
Caution. The fragrance can run out of the flacon. Make sure that
you always keep the flacon, or the fluff filter with the flacon inserted in it, upright when carrying and do not tip it or place it down on any surface.
Use an absorbent cloth immediately to wipe up any fragrance
which has run out of the flacon onto the floor, the dryer or any dryer components (e.g. the fluff filter).
If fragrance which has run out of a flacon should come in contact
with the skin - wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water; come in contact with the eyes - rinse the eyes with clean water for at least 15minutes; be swallowed - rinse out the mouth thoroughly with clean water. Seek medical advice in the case of contact with the eyes or if fragrance has been swallowed.
If fragrance which has run out of a flacon comes in contact with
clothing, change the clothing immediately. Wash the clothing or any cloths used for mopping up fragrance thoroughly with plenty 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 flacon with fragrance. – Never use a faulty fragrance flacon.
Dispose of an empty fragrance flacon with the household waste
and never use it for any other purpose.
Please also observe the information supplied with the fragrance
flacon.

Energy saving tips

Energy saving tips

This dryer with heat-pump technology is designed for energy-saving drying cycles. You can save even more energy with the following measures, because 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 spinning laundry at 1600rpm instead of 1000rpm.
– Use the maximum load quantity for
the drying programme being used. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is the 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.
– If possible, make use of time-
variable, low-cost electricity tariffs. Ask your energy supplier for information. Your tumble dryer's Delay start function will be useful as you can select when during the next 24hours you want drying to start automatically.
– Clean the fluff filters in the door
opening after every drying cycle.
Please refer to “Cleaning and care” for information on cleaning the fluff filters and the plinth filter.

Energy consumption
–– ––––––

EcoFeedback

You can view information about the energy consumption of your tumble dryer in the pull-down menu.
The following information will appear in the display:
– An estimate of the energy
consumption before the programme ends.
– The actual energy consumption
during the programme or at the end of the programme.
Open the pull-down menu.

1. Estimate

The estimated energy consumption will be displayed as a bar chart before the start of the programme.

2. Actual consumption

You can view the actual energy consumption during the programme or at the end of the programme.
If the energy consumption is too low to be measured, < 0.1 kWh will be displayed.
The consumption will alter as the programme progresses.
At the end of the programme, before opening the door, you can also call up the filter soiling level as a %.
Filter soiling 0% = Light 50% = Normal 100% = Heavy With increased soiling, the programme duration is extended, which increases energy consumption.
If the door is opened or the appliance has switched off automatically at the end of the programme, the data will revert to the estimated consumption.
Useful tip: You can view the consumption data for the last drying programme and for total consumption (see “Settings - Consumption”).
The more bars visible, the higher the energy consumption.
The estimate will vary depending on the drying programme, the drying level and any Extras selected.

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 put soaking wet items into the
tumble dryer. Make sure your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying. The higher the spin speed, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying.
– New dark coloured garments should
be washed and dried separately from light coloured garments to avoid the risk of colours running and discolouring other garments or even plastic components in the dryer. Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa.
– Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.
Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation. The laundry can burn and destroy
the dryer and the surroundings. See “Warning and Safety
instructions” for further information.
– Sort the laundry according to the type
of fibre 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.
– Fasten hooks and eyes.
– Leave jackets open and undo any
long zips so that textiles dry evenly.

Preparing the laundry before drying

Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the laundry.
Foreign objects can melt, burn, or explode.
Ensure that any foreign objects, e.g. detergent dispensing balls, lighters, etc. have been removed from the laundry.
– Sew in or remove loosened
underwiring from bras.
– Reduce the size of the load. 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 shirts or blouses.
27
1. Notes on correct laundry care

Drying

Useful tip: See the “Programme chart”.
It lists all programmes and their maximum load.
– Always observe the maximum
recommended load for each programme. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is the most economical.
– Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink, depending on the quality of the item. Only use the Pre-ironing programme for these textiles.
– Pure linen should only be tumble
dried if it is specified as suitable on the care label. The surface of the fabric may otherwise become rough. Only use the Pre-ironing programme for these textiles.
– Woollens and wool blends are
susceptible to becoming matted or shrinking. Only use the Woollens handcare programme for these textiles.
– Loopknit garments (e.g. T-Shirts,
underwear) have a tendency to shrink after the first wash. Do not overdry these fabrics to prevent further shrinking. When buying loopknit garments, it is advisable to take their shrinkage potential into account.

2. Loading the tumble dryer

Loading the laundry

Textiles may be damaged. Before loading the dryer, read “1.
Notes on correct laundry care”.
Check that the drum is empty.
Remove any items that might be blocking the drum.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely
into the drum.

Two positions for inserting a fragrance flacon

See the section “Fragrance flacon” for information on how to use fragrance flacons.
If you are not using a fragrance flacon: push the tab down completely (see arrow) so that the socket is closed. Otherwise, lint will accumulate here.

Closing the door

Do not overload the drum. Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and give a disappointing drying result. It can also cause more creasing.
When closing the door, make sure that laundry does not get trapped in the door opening.
This can result in damage to the laundry.
Shut the door with a gentle swing.
