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
Old appliances 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 appliance
away unplug it and render the plug
useless. Cut off the cable directly
behind the appliance 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.
^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 save energy and time:
– make sure the room in which the
dryer is located is well ventilated.
– Make sure the fluff filters are clean
before using the dryer.

Read the operating instructions
carefully before using this appliance
for the first time. They contain
important information about the
safety, use and maintenance of the
appliance. This way you will avoid
the risk of accidents and damage to
the appliance.
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 appliance 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 appliance 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
appliance 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
6

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
electiricty 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.
The dryer must not be used without
the fluff filters in place or if the fluff
filters are damaged in any way.
The fluff filters must be thoroughly
dried after cleaning. If they are still
damp or wet when replaced there is a
risk of faults occurring when the
machine is used.
The dryer must not be used without
the condenser unit in place.
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.
There is a risk of damage if the
condensed water is allowed to freeze in
the pump, hoses and / or condensed
water container.
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
machine free of dust and fluff. Dust
drawn into the machine can, over time,
cause blockages in the condenser unit.
Warning and Safety instructions
7

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 start tipping 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.
– which 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
appliance 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.
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.

–For delicates and fabrics with the
following wash care label ryou
should also select the

extra option.
– Cottons, linens and minimum iron
items should be dried using the
appropriate programme for the
degree of dryness required.
Tips on drying
Always observe the maximum
recommended loads given in the
“Programme chart”. Never overload
the drum. 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 for at least
30 seconds.
–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.
–Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink,
depending on the quality of the item.
These garments 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 become rough. These
garments can be partially dried
using the
Smoothing programme.
–Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts and
underwear) tend to shrink depending
on their quality. Therefore: to prevent
further shrinkage do not over-dry
these textiles. When purchasing
these garments it is advisable to take
their shrinkage properties into
account, and select items one or two
sizes larger.
– Minimum iron fabrics and 100%
cotton shirts or blouses tend to
crease more the greater the load.
This is especially true of very fine
weaves, such as shirts or blouses.
Reduce the load or use the
Shirts
programme.
–Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. 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 colours running.
Notes on laundry care

Brief instructions
The heading numbered (A,B,C...)
show the operating sequence and can
be used as a brief guide to using your
machine.
ASort the laundry
Separate out the washed laundry and
sort it according to:
. . . the drying level required
. . . the type of fibre or weave
. . size
. . the moisture content after spinning.
In this way an even drying result will be
achieved.
,Make sure that objects e.g.
detergent dispensing balls have
been removed from the laundry.
They could melt, and cause damage
to the dryer or the laundry.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
–Fasten duvet covers and pillow
cases to prevent small items from
being trapped inside them.
–Fasten zips, hooks and eyes etc.
–Tie fabric belts and apron strings.
–Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
BTurn on the tumble dryer
^Switch the dryer on by pressing the
ON/OFF button s.
The tumble dryer may be switched on
after loading, saving energy as the light
will not come on.
CLoad the tumble dryer
^Press the abutton to open the door.
^Load the laundry loosely into the
drum.
Do not overload the drum. See the
"Programme chart" for
recommended loads for each
programme.
Overloading can cause unnecessary
wear and tear to the laundry and
give a disappointing drying result.
^Before closing the door make sure
the fluff filter is correctly positioned in
the door.
Check the laundry is right inside the
drum so that it cannot get trapped or
damaged when the door is shut.
^Shut the door either with a gentle
swing, or lean against it and push it
shut.

Estimated time remaining
When a programme is selected the
estimated drying time 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
handcare
and Smoothing programmes
can finish earlier than expected if a
certain temperature is reached. This
can happen with particularly fine
fabrics or if items were dry beforehand.
