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 super-
vision 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 install or use a dryer with visible damage.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 flacon (optional accessory) will add a pleasant fra­grance to your laundry. When a fragrance flacon 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 flacon, always follow the warnings in this section as well as those under “Fragrance flacon”.
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 sur-
rounding 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
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Before installation, disconnect the tumble dryer from the electrical
supply by shutting off the power main, unplugging the power cord or tripping the circuit breaker. Do not restore power until the installation is complete.
Miele tumble dryers and Miele washing machines can be installed
as a washer-dryer stack. A Miele washer-dryer connection kit is re­quired as an optional accessory for this. Please ensure that the washer-dryer connection kit is suitable for the Miele tumble dryer and the Miele washing machine.
If you order a plinth for this tumble dryer (available from Miele as
an optional accessory), make sure it is the correct one.
The maximum dry laundry weight is 17.6 lbs (8.0kg).
See the “Program chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual programs.
Do not place shoes inside the drum for drying. Placing shoes in-
side the drum for drying can cause the belt to tear, requiring a ser­vice call. You must always use the dryer basket (optional accessory) when drying/airing shoes. Follow the additional operating instructions for the dryer basket.
This tumble dryer is supplied with a special bulb to cope with par-
ticular conditions (e.g., temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, and vibration). This special bulb must only be used for the purpose for which it is intended. It is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement bulbs may only be fitted by a Miele au­thorized person or by Miele 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.
- 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. Designation of refrigerant: R134a Amount of refrigerant: 16.6 oz (0.47) kg Global warming potential of refrigerant: 1430 kg CO2 e Global warming potential of appliance: 672 kg CO2 e

Energy consumption
–– ––––––
This dryer with heat-pump technology is designed for energy-saving drying cycles. 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 in the washing machine 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 1,600rpm instead of 1,000rpm.
- Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the drying 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 heat­producing 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.
You can view an energy consumption estimate of your tumble dryer in the pull-down menu.
When a program has been selected, the display will show the estimate before the program starts.
Open the pull-down menu.
The more bars visible, the higher the energy consumption. The estimate will vary depending on the drying program and any extra options selected.
- 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 again.
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.
20
- 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 again.

Initial set-up

Downtime after installation

Damage caused by switching the
appliance on too soon. This can damage the heat pump. After setting up the tumble dryer,
wait for at least one hour before starting a drying program.

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

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.
Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation. The laundry can burn and destroy
the dryer and the surroundings. Read and observe “IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
- 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.
- Fasten hooks and eyes.
- Leave jackets open and undo any long zippers so that textiles dry evenly.
- Sew in or remove underwiring from bras.
- If necessary, reduce the size of the load for these types of fabric. Easy care 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.
24
1. Notes on correct laundry care

Drying

Tip: 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.
- Down-filled garments have linings which have a tendency to shrink, de­pending on the quality of the item. Only use the SoftSteam 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 Soft- Steam program for these items.
- Woolens and wool blends tend to be­come matted and shrink if tumble dried. Only use the Woolens Hand- care 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 over-dry the fabrics to prevent them from shrinking further. Buy jer­sey fabrics that are one or two sizes bigger.

Starting a program

The program can be started when the Start/Stop sensor button is flashing on and off.
Touch the Start/Stop sensor button.
The Start/Stop sensor button lights up constantly.
Drying and the program duration remain-
ing will light up in the display.
The laundry will be cooled down shortly before the end of the program.
Tip: In the pull-down menu, you can view the selected drying level or dura­tion and the energy consumption.
With programs with a selectable drying level, PerfectDry calculates the residual moisture present in the laundry to en­sure precise drying results. However, if you load the dryer with little or dry laun­dry, it will be dried/aired for a set dura­tion.
The PerfectDry display will only light up with programs with selectable drying levels:
- hollow point after a program has
started
- solid point when the drying level is
reached
The time left for the drying level pro­grams can vary or “jump”. It depends on the load quantity, type of laundry, residual moisture in the laundry, or wa­ter hardness. PerfectDry continually adapts, constantly increasing the accu­racy of the time left.
Avoid overdrying items of laun-
dry and garments. Otherwise they can wear out!

Energy savings

After 10minutes, the indicators dim and the Start/Stop sensor button starts flashing.
Touch the Start/Stop sensor button to
switch the indicators on again (this does not have any effect on a running program).
The drum lighting switches off once the program has started.

Adding laundry

You can add laundry after the program has started.
Follow the description in “Changing
the program sequence – Adding or removing laundry”.
The drying level reached will still be shown later on.
