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.
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, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible (by law, depending on
country) for deleting any personal data
that may be stored on the appliance
being disposed of. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored prior to
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.
Underloading is uneconomical.
Overloading gives a poorer quality of
drying and may cause unnecessary
creasing.
– Make sure 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 fluff filters in the door
opening after every drying cycle.

Warning and Safety instructions
6
It is essential to read these instructions.
This tumble dryer complies with 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 intended for use in domestic households and
similar working and residential environments.
This tumble dryer is not intended for outdoor use.
It must be used only as a domestic appliance to dry items which
have been washed in a water solution and which are marked on the
manufacturer's care label as being suitable for tumble drying. If
using dry cleaning kits, 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.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
This tumble dryer can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown
how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the
consequences of incorrect operation.
Safety with children
Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the tumble
dryer unless they are constantly supervised.
Children 8 years and older may only use the tumble dryer
unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and
recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the tumble
dryer unsupervised.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the tumble dryer and do
not let them play with it.
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) match the
mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this tumble dryer can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
Warning and Safety instructions
8
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).
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead, multi-socket adapter or similar. These can overheat
and are a fire hazard.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service 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 approved service technician, otherwise any
subsequent damage will not be covered by the guarantee.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele
original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety
of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
The tumble dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in
the event of a fault and during cleaning and maintenance.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
This tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location
(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 refrigerant which is
condensed by the compressor and 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 and do not impair the efficient functioning of
the dryer.
– The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
– In general it is not necessary to leave the dryer standing for any
length of time after it has been installed provided it has been
transported correctly (see "Installation and connection").
If it has not been transported as described, ensure that the
recommended standing time prior to first operation is observed.
Otherwise the heat pump can be damaged.
– This tumble dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-Gas).
They are hermetically sealed.
Designation of refrigerant: R134a
Amount of refrigerant: 0.57 kg
Global warming potential of refrigerant: 1430 kg CO2 e
Global warming potential of appliance: 815 kg CO2 e
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Please observe the instructions in "Installation and connection"
and the "Technical data".
The accessibility of the plug must always be ensured, in order to
disconnect the tumble dryer from the mains.
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 dryer.
Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after
installation.
This tumble dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with
particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical
resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp
must only be used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable
for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele
authorised person or the Miele Service Department.
Correct use
The maximum load for this tumble dryer is 8.0 kg (dry weight).
The maximum recommended loads for individual programmes are
given in the Programme chart.
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.
