Disposal of the packing

material

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for disposal

and should 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.

Disposing of your old machine

Electrical and electronic machines

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 machine.

Please do not dispose of it with your

household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre or contact your dealer for

advice. 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.

Underloading is uneconomical.

Overloading gives a poorer quality of

drying and may cause unnecessary

creasing.

– 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.

– After every cycle remove the fluff

from the fluff filters (see "Cleaning

and Care").

please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first

time. They contain important information on its safety, installation,

use and maintenance.

Warning and Safety instructions.

Pass these instructions on to any future users/owners.

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.

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.

~The tumble dryer is not intended for outdoor use.

Warning and Safety instructions

~The tumble dryer can only be used by people with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or

knowledge, if they are are supervised whilst using it or have been

shown how to use it in a safe way and understand the hazards

involved.

~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, clean or maintain the

tumble dryer without supervision if they have been shown how to do

so in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

~The tumble dryer is not a toy! To prevent the risk of injury, do not

allow children to play with it or near it, or to play with the controls.

Technical safety

~Before setting up the tumble dryer, check it for any externally

visible damage.

Do not install or use a damaged tumble dryer.

~Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless

authorised to do so by Miele.

~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 tumble dryer (e.g. danger of overheating).

Warning and Safety instructions

~The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety

requirement is observed and regularly tested, and where there is

any doubt the on-site 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).

~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. Ensure

current is not supplied to the tumble dryer 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 tumble dryer be guaranteed.

~To ensure the correct performance of the tumble dryer and to

prevent the risk of faults and fire, it is important to check it and carry

out maintenance on a regular basis.

~The tumble dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in

the event of a fault and during cleaning and maintenance. Please

also read the "Electrical connection" section.

~The tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location

(e.g. on a ship).

~In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or

other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the tumble dryer

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.

Warning and Safety instructions

~Heat pump technology and refrigerant:

–The tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which is neither

flammable nor explosive.

–The noises caused by the heat pump during the drying process

are normal and do not impair the efficient functioning of the dryer.

–In general it is not necessary to leave the dryer standing for any

length of time before it is put into operation provided it has been

transported and installed correctly (see "Installation and

connection").

However, if it has not been transported as described, ensure that

the recommended standing time prior to first operation is

observed.

Warning and Safety instructions

~Please observe the instructions in "Installation and connection"

and "Technical data".

~The socket must be easily accessible after installation in order to

disconnect the tumble dryer from the electricity supply.

~For hard-wired machines, the all-pole isolator provided on-site

must be easily accessible after installation in order to disconnect the

tumble dryer from the electricity supply.

~Do not block the gap between the base of the dryer and the floor

with plinth facings, deep pile carpet etc. as this would hinder a

sufficient intake of air.

~Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after

installation.

~In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or

other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the tumble dryer

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 appliance guarantee.
