To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the machine please read
these instructions carefully before
using it for the first time. They
contain important information on its
safety, use and maintenance.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and ensure that new
users are familiar with the content.
Pass them on to any future owner of
the machine.
Correct use
The tumble dryer is only intended
for drying fabrics which have been
washed in a water solution, marked on
the manufacturer's wash 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. The manufacturer is not
liable for damage resulting from
improper use or operation.
This machine is not a toy! To avoid
the risk of injury, do not allow
children to play on or near it, or to
play with the controls. Supervise its
use by the elderly or infirm.
Technical safety
Before setting up the machine
check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not install or use a
damaged machine.
Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (fusing, voltage and
frequency) matches the mains
electricity supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this
machine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the machine and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
regularly tested, and where there is any
doubt the household wiring system
should be inspected by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer cannot be
held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g.
electric shock).
Do not connect the machine to the
mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
machine (e.g. danger or overheating).
The machine is built in accordance
with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in
unforeseen dangers for the user, for
which the manufacturer cannot accept
liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele approved
technician.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
machine while maintenance or repair
work is being carried out.
Faulty components must only be
exchanged for Miele original spare
parts. Only when these parts are fitted
can the safety standards of the
machine be guaranteed.
Warning and Safety instructions
4

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 machine 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 is withdrawn.
Operation
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However, it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk
assessment of the installation being
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
This dryer must not be:
–connected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in use.
–used without exhaust ducting.
–used without the fluff filter in place or
if the fluff filter is damaged in any
way.
Check all parts of the extraction
system on a regular basis (e.g. wall
vent, external grille, bends in the
ducting etc.) and make sure they are all
free of any hindrance. A build-up of fluff
will prevent a free-flow of air through the
system. If the dryer is to be connected
to an existing ducting system this must
be checked for suitability beforehand.
Adequate ventilation is essential,
especially where another
appliance which also uses the room air
(e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heater,
continuous flow or other water heater) is
installed in the same or an adjacent
room.
To ensure safe operation, and to
prevent gases given off by these
appliances being drawn back into the
room, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar is
the maximum permissible. Ventilation
can be maintained by air inlets which
cannot be blocked, in windows, doors
and outside wall vents, or by an auto-
matic window opening arrangement
when the tumble dryer is switched on. If
in doubt, the advice of a competent
builder, or for gas, a "Corgi" installer (in
UK) must be sought.
The exhaust air must not be vented
into a chimney or vent flue which is
in use, nor should it be connnected to
ducting which ventilates rooms with
fireplaces. It would be dangerous if
smoke or exhaust fumes were drawn
back into the room.
Do not install the machine in a
room where the temperature may
drop down to or below freezing. At very
cold temperatures the machine may be
difficult to start.
Always keep the area around the
machine free of dust and fluff.
Warning and Safety instructions
5

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.
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the
door, as this can cause the
machine to tip up.
There is danger of fire with fabrics
which:
– contain a large proportion of rubber,
foam rubber or rubber like materials.
– have been treated with inflammable
cleaning agents.
– have been splashed with hair
lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish
remover or similar substances.
– contain padding or fillings (e.g.
pillows, jackets). If these were
damaged the filling could leak out
with the risk of igniting in the dryer.
–are soiled with oil or grease.
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 machine
guarantee.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted
when expressly approved by Miele.
If other parts are used, guarantee,
performance and product liability
claims may be invalidated.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

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 machine
Old machines contain materials which
can be reclaimed or recycled. Please
contact your dealer, your local waste
collection centre or scrap merchant
about potential recycling schemes.
Ensure that the machine presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
Before throwing an old machine away,
unplug it and render the plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the
machine to prevent misuse. This should
be done by a competent person.
Energy saving tips
^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.
^When the ambient temperature is
warm (over 25°C) e.g. in summer,
select the
Energy save additional
option to reduce energy
consumption.
^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.
^To avoid unnecessarily long drying
times and high consumption of
energy:
–Make sure the room in which the
dryer is located is well ventilated.
–Make sure the fluff filter is clean
before using the dryer.
–Check all parts of the ventilation
system on a regular basis and
remove any build up of fluff etc.
^The vent ducting should be as short,
straight and smooth as possible to
minimise any resistance to the air
throughflow.
This helps to reduce running times
and energy consumption levels.

Display
The display shows a variety of func-
tions:
–it displays how long a programme
has to run in hours and minutes;
–with "Delay start" it displays the time
remaining until the programme starts;
–it displays programmable functions
being selected and de-selected.
Time left display for Cottons and
Minimum ron programmes
Once a sensor programme has started
the time left for a programme to run will
be calculated by the machine. During
this calculation period the following
bars will flash in the display:
=== ... -== ... == ... . After approx. 1
minute the programme duration will
appear in the display and proceed to
count down in minutes.
The programme duration can vary each
time a programme is run because it is
affected by a variety of factors e.g:
–the moisture content after spinning
–the type of textiles
–the quantity of laundry in the drum
–the ambient room temperature
–fluctuations in the electricity supply
The electronic unit adapts to each
individual load of laundry. The time
remaining for a programme to run
shown in the display is calculated
constantly during a programme. This
means that the time displayed may
fluctuate during the programme. If the
time remaining in the display has
flashing bars in front of it, this indicates
that the programme is about to enter
the cooling down phase and is not
indicative of a fault.
The time remaining displayed should
not be taken as an accurate time
measurement. It is an estimate of when
your laundry should reach the level
dryness you have selected.

Wash care labels
Before drying check the drying
symbol on the wash care label.
Significance of symbols:
qDry at normal temperature
rDry at low temperature
sDo not tumble dry
If no symbol is featured, dry at your
own risk applying the following
principles:
Cotton and minimum iron items should
be dried using the appropriate
programme for the degree of drying
required. See programme chart.
For delicates and fabrics with the
following wash care label rdry using
the
Low temperature option.
Never overload the drum. Do not
exceed the maximum recommended
loads given in the "Programme
chart". Overloading can cause
unnecessary wear and tear to the
laundry, give a disappointing drying
result and cause more creasing.
Do not put soaking wet items into
the tumble dryer. Spin them
thoroughly after washing using the
appropriate spin speed.
Tips on drying
Woollens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if dried in a
tumble dryer. They can, however, be
partially dried using the
Woollens hand
care
programme.
Items filled with down.
The fabric lining on these garments
may shrink depending on the quality.
They can be partially dried using the
Smoothing programme.
Pure linen should only be machine
dried if specified as suitable by the
manufacturer on the wash care label,
as the surface of the fabric may
otherwise "roughen". These items can
be partially dried using the
Smoothing
programme.
Woven and loopknit materials (e.g.
T-shirts, knitted garments) have a
tendency to shrink, depending on their
quality and this is made worse by
over-drying. When purchasing these
garments it is advisable to take their
shrinkage properties into account.
Minimum iron fabrics and 100% cotton
shirts or blouses tend to crease more,
the larger the load being dried,
particulary when the weave of the
fabric is very fine. Reduce the load or
use the MINIMUM IRON -
Hand iron
programme with a max. load of 1 kg. If
this is unsatisfactory use the Special
care "Smoothing" setting, then hang the
garments on a hanger to dry.
Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. In order to achieve the
usual finish, double the amount of
starch should be used.
New dark coloured garments should be
dried separately from light coloured
garments to avoid the danger of col-
ours running.

APrepare the laundry
^As far as possible, sort laundry for:
- the type of fibre or weave,
- the degree of dryness required,
- similar size of items,
- the moisture content after
spinning.
This will help towards achieving an
even drying result.
Fasten duvet covers etc. to prevent
small items from being rolled up inside
them.
Do up zips, hooks and eyes etc.
Tie fabric belts, apron strings.
Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
Make sure there is no detergent
dispenser ball etc. in with the
laundry, as this could melt and
damage the machine and the
laundry.
BLoad the drum and switch
on the dryer
^Press the door button and open the
door.
^Load the laundry loosely into the
drum.
Do not overload the drum.
Overloading can cause unnecessary
wear and tear to the laundry and
give a disappointing drying result.
See the "Programme chart" for
maximum recommended loads.
^Before closing the door check that
the fluff filter is correctly positioned in
the door.
When closing the door make sure
items of laundry cannot be trapped
by the door, as this will cause
damage to the laundry.
^Shut the door either with a gentle
swing or lean against it and push it
shut.
^Switch the dryer on by pressing the
"l-On/0-Off" button.

CSelecting a programme
^Turn the programme selector to the
programme required.
COTTONS and MINIMUM IRON
The length of the programme is
electronically calculated according to
the residual moisture content of the
load. Approx. drying times are given in
the "Consumption data" chart.
Woollens Hand care and Smoothing
See the "Consumption data" chart for
programme times.
TIMED DRYING
When choosing Warm or Cool air
TIMED DRYING you also select the
duration of the programme.
^Press the
Timed drying button
repeatedly until the required time
appears in the display.
Times are chosen as follows:
-15-30 minutes in 5 minute stages
- Above 30 minutes in 10 minute
stages.
If the
Timed drying button is held
pressed in, the time will automatically
run up to 2hours and then go back
to i5 minutes again.
DSelecting additional options
^Additional options are selected
before starting a programme by
pressing the relevant buttons.
It is not possible to activate additional
options which are incompatible with the
drying programme selected. The
indicator light will go out when the
option button is released. If an
inappropriate combination of options is
selected (e.g. "Short" and "Low
temperature") only the last option
selected will be activated.
Energy save
For reduced energy consumption
where ambient temperatures are
above 25°C.
Energy consumption can be reduced
when the ambient temperature is high
and humidity levels are low (e.g. in
summer) and the machine is loaded to
capacity.
–The programme running time will be
extended.

Short
For drying fabrics which can
withstand high temperatures, e.g.
pure linens and cottons. Do not use
on minimum iron or delicate fabrics.
–Because the heater rating is
increased clothes dry faster thus
shortening drying times.
Low temperature
For drying delicate fabrics with the
symbol r(e.g. acrylic garments) at a
lower temperature.
Because the heater rating is reduced
clothes dry more slowly thus
lengthening drying times.
Buzzer
An audible tone sounds repeatedly at
the end of a programme.
^The buzzer can be switched on or off
after a programme has started.
The volume (and pitch) of the buzzer
can be adjusted before a programme is
started:
^Select the programme.
^Press the "Buzzer" button (the
"Buzzer" indicator lamp will light up)
until the desired volume / pitch is
achieved. Then release the button.
EDelay start
Once a programme has been
selected, the start can be delayed by
30 minutes (30) up to 24 hours (24^).
^Press the
Delay start button
repeatedly until the required time
appears in the display :
- up to 10^ in 30 minute stages.
- over 10^ in 1 hour stages.
The time will run up to 24^ by
keeping the button pressed in.
Press the
Start button. The chosen time
will count down as follows:
–from24^ to 10^ in 1 hour stages.
– less than 10^ in 1 minute stages.

Additional notes
. . . Clean out airways indicator lamp
This indicator lamp comes on to warn
you that the dryer is not working
efficiently.
This may be because:
– the fluff filter in the door is blocked;
– the vent ducting or the ventilation
outlet is blocked;
– the vent ducting is very long
(see "Installation - venting" for notes
on duct length and diameter).
If it is not possible to shorten the vent
ducting, the
