Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally 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!
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
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 of your
appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
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 (see
Programme chart).
Underloading is uneconomical.
Overloading gives a poorer quality of
drying and may cause unnecessary
creasing.
– Make sure the room in which the
dryer is located is well ventilated.
– Make sure the fluff filters are clean
before using the dryer.
– Check the condenser unit from time
to time and clean it when necessary.

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.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and ensure that new users are
familiar with the content. Pass them
on to any future owner.
Correct application
~This tumble dryer is only intended
for drying fabrics which have been
washed in a water solution, and marked
on the manufacturer's care label as
being suitable for tumble drying.
"Dry cleaning kits" for freshening up
garments in a tumble dryer are
increasingly available on the market. If
using, do so at your own risk, and
follow the instructions provided on the
packaging.
Any other applications may be
dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable
for damage resulting from incorrect or
improper use or operation.
~This tumble dryer is not intended for
use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of
experience or knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or
instruction concerning its use by a
person responsible for their safety.
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.
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.
Warning and Safety instructions
5
~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).
~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
machine (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
machine until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
~Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
spare parts. Only when these parts are
fitted can the safety standards of the
machine 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 has been withdrawn,
or the screw-out fuse removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
~This tumble dryer may only be used
in mobile installations such as ships if a
risk assessment of the installation has
been carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
~In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
machine 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.
Correct use
~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.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
~The dryer must not be used without
the fluff filters in place or if the fluff
filters are damaged in any way.
~The dryer must not be used without
the condenser unit in place.
~The fluff 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, hoses and / or condensed
water container.
The ambient room temperature should
be between +2°C and +35°C.
~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.
~Always keep the area around the
tumble dryer free of dust and fluff. Dust
drawn into the machine can over time
cause blockages in the condenser unit.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
~To prevent the risk of fire, the
following textiles must not be dried
in this tumble dryer:
–fabrics which contain a large
proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber-like materials.
–items which contain damaged
padding or fillings (e.g. pillows and
jackets).
If the filling comes out it could ignite
and cause a fire.
–items which have been treated with
inflammable cleaning agents.
– items which have been splashed with
hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish
remover or similar substances.
– items soiled with wax or other
chemicals (e.g. mops and floor
cloths).
– 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.
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.
Accessories
~Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele. If
non-Miele parts are used, guarantee,
performance and product liability
claims may be invalidated.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety
instructions.

Features
Display
The display shows:
–the programme duration (time
remaining);
–the delay start time;
–check messages;
–programmable functions.
Estimated time remaining
When a programme is selected the
estimated duration (time remaining) will
appear in the display. Please be aware
that it is only an estimate!
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 continually assess
conditions in the machine 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.
In the same way, the Woollens hand
care and Smoothing programmes can
finish earlier than expected if a certain
temperature is reached. This can
happen with particularly fine fabrics,
very small loads or if items were partly
dry beforehand.
Buttons and check lights
The relevant indicator light comes on
each time a button is pressed.
PC / Optical interface
The indicator light marked PC can be
used by Miele Service technicians as
an optical interface to update your
machine in future years.

Programmable functions
– For changing the default settings.
Drum lighting
If the dryer is switched on, the drum
lighting will come on when the door is
opened. It will go out after a short while
if the door is left open to save energy.
