Warning and Safety Instructions

Please read the operating instructions before using the tumble dryer for the first time. They contain important information about the safety, use and maintenance of the machine.

This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine.

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.

Any other applications may be dangerous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.

Do not let small children play with the machine or its 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 by a qualified electrican.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible 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.

Unauthorized repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved engineer.

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.

4

Warning and Safety Instructions

In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply either when:

– it is switched off at the mains or

– the mains fuse is withdrawn.

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 being given off by these appliances being drawn back into the room, an underpressure of 4 Pa 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 automatic window opening arrangement when the tumble dryer is switched on.

If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder, or for gas, a "Corgi" registered installer (in the UK) must be sought.

Vented dryers must be installed with a suitable venting system. If the machine is not correctly ducted it will draw damp exhaust air back into the drum, increasing running time and energy consumption quite considerably. If moist air is passed back into the room this may lead to long-term damage of walls.

The exhaust air must not be vented into a chimney or vent flue which is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces. It would be dangerous if smoke or exhaust fumes were drawn back into the room.

Always close the door after use.

This way you will avoid the danger of:

– anyone sitting or leaning on the door, which can cause the machine to tip up.

– children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it.

Do not install the machine in a room where the temperature may drop below freezing. At very cold temperatures the machine may be difficult to start. Laundry will not dry, and the sequence indicator light

~ r

Anticrease/End will flash to indicate a problem.

5

Warning and Safety Instructions

There is a danger of fire with fabrics which:

– contain 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 get out with the risk of igniting in the dryer.

Avoid contact of stainless steel surfaces (front, lid, casing) with liquid cleaning and disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on stainless steel. Aggressive vapours containing chlorine bleach can also be corrosive. Do not store open containers or these agents near the machine.

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.

Disposal of your Old Machine

Before discarding an old machine unplug it and render the plug useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.

6

Help to Protect the Environment

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.

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.

Energy Saving Tips

^ Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying. You will save up to 30% energy and time if laundry is spun at 1200 rpm instead of at 600 rpm.

^ Load according to the optimum amount of washing recommended for the program being used.

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 lint filter is clean before using the dryer.

^ The vent ducting should be as short, straight and smooth as possible. Expelled air is slowed down in the vent duct due to friction against the inner walls of the ducting, therefore the shorter the duct and the smoother the inner walls, the less friction occurs which in turns saves drying time and energy costs.

Preparation of Laundry

Wash Care Labels

Before drying check the drying symbol on the wash care label.

Significance of symbols: q = Dry at normal temperature r = Dry at low temperature s= Do not tumble dry

If no symbol is featured dry at your own risk applying the following principles:

Cottons and minimum iron items should be dried at a normal temperature using the appropriate program setting.

Delicate fabrics with the following wash care label r, e.g. acrylics should be dried at a low temperature.

The following fabrics should not be dried in a tumble dryer:

Woollens and wool blends these fabrics tend to become matted and shrink.

Items filled with down the fine fabric interior tends to shrink, depending on the quality involved.

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 tend to roughen.

General Notes

Woven and loopkit materials (e.g.

t -shirts, knitted garments) tend to shrink to varying extents depending on their quality. This tendency is exaggerated by over-drying. When purchasing woven materials, it is advisable to take their shrinkage properties into account.

Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.

Minimum iron fabrics should be spun briefly at the end of their wash program, or spun for 10 to 30 seconds if hand washed before they are dried. Some fabrics tend to crease if overdried. These items should be given only a short period in the dryer, and taken out slightly damp. Do not use the

B Minimum iron - G Normal+ program for these fabrics.

Minimum iron shirts in 100% cotton may crease during tumble drying depending on the quality of the weave.

These should be dried using the Hand iron

I setting. In extreme cases drip dry on a coat hanger.

Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease more the greater the load. This is particulary the case with delicate fabrics.

The load should be reduced to 2 kg or if necessary to 1.5 kg.

New dark coloured garments should be dried separately from light coloured garments to avoid the danger of colours running.

How to Dry Correctly

Prepare 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 zippers and tie fabric belts and apron strings.

Do not overload the drum. Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and give a disappointing drying result.

See the program chart for maximum loads.

^ Before closing the door check that the lint filter is correctly positioned.

Important: Please check that items of laundry cannot be trapped by the door, as this will cause damage to the fabric.

Make sure there is no detergent dispenser ball etc. in with the laundry, as this could melt and damage the machine and the laundry.

Load the Drum

^ Press the door button a and open the door.

^ Load the laundry loosely into the drum.

^ Shut the door with a firm swing.

13

How to dry correctly

Select a program

^ Turn the program selector to the program required.

^ Select low temperature L if required.

If the machine is fitted with a coin mechanism / time counter:

^ Insert coins or tokens.

Remember to empty the coin / token box regularly, so that it does not become blocked.

For further information on operating the dryer with a coin mechanism / time counter see "Installation".

Start a program

^ Press the Start h button.

At the end of a program

^ Turn the program selector to the r End position.

^ Press the door a button to open the door.

^ Press the Light n button.

^ Remove the laundry from the dryer.

Make sure that the drum is empty.

If items are left in the dryer, they could be damaged by overdrying when the dryer is next used.

If laundry is not taken out of the dryer at the end of the program the dryer will commence an anti-crease phase, during which the drum rotates at timed intervals to keep the laundry suspended and reduce the risk of creasing.

^ To save both energy and operation time the fluff filter in the door should be cleaned after every program

(see "Cleaning and Care").

^ Shut the door when you have finished. As a safety precaution do not leave the door open when not in use.

14

Changing a program

To cancel a program

^ Turn the program selector switch to the r End position.

For safety reasons all programes where the residual moisture content is monitored have a maximum running time of 130 minutes, after which period the heater elements are switched off and the cooling down phase commences.

To select a different program during drying

^ Turn the program selector to the required program.

The new program starts from the beginning.

Adding or removing items

^ Press the door a button to open the door.

If the door is opened during drying the program will have to be started again. Take out or add items as required.

^ Close the door.

^ Press the Start h button.

The program selected will then continue from the point it was at when the door was opened.

The program is not continued

– if there is a power failure lasting more than 30 minutes

– if the program has already reached the ä cooling down phase or the

~ r Anti-crease stage.

15

Cleaning and Care

Cleaning the Lint Filters

The lint which occurs during drying is collected in the lint filters in the door and in the door opening.

Clean the filters after every program to reduce drying time and save energy.

^ Push the cleaned filter back into the door holder and close the door.

If there is a great deal of compacted lint on the filters, they can be cleaned under hot running water.

^ Open the door and pull the lint filter up out of the door holder.

^ Remove the lint from:

– the filter in the door

– the filters in the door opening

(do not use sharp or pointed objects.).

^ Remove any lint from the hollow part of the door holder through the wide slit at the bottom.

A cleaning brush is available at extra cost from the Miele Spare Parts Department.

^ The filter in the door opening should only be removed for cleaning with water (see illustration for instructions on how to remove it).

^ After cleaning shake any excess water off the filters.

^ Dry them carefully and thoroughly.

^ Replace the filters in the door opening.

^ Replace the filter in the door, ensuring it is fitted the correct way round in its holder.

16

Casing and Drum

Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply.

Avoid contact of stainless steel surfaces (front, lid, casing) with liquid cleaning and disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on stainless steel. Aggressive vapours containing chlorine bleach can also be corrosive. Do not store open containers or these agents near the machine.

^ Clean the housing and control panel with a mild detergent or soapy water.

^ Clean the drum and other stainless steel parts with a suitable proprietary stainless steel cleaner following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Note that all ducting must be of a suitable heat resistant specification.

Install the exhaust ducting so that the expelled exhaust air cannot be sucked into the machine again.

Standard accessories include an adapter for the exhaust ducting:

Application:

In installations where conditions do not allow the machine to be permanently connected to a ducting system.

Purpose:

The adapter enables rapid, simple connection or disconnection of the exhaust ducting.

Installation:

The adapter is fitted to the non-connected end of the vent duct.

Important

Connection must not be made to a flue used by gas or solid fuel boilers or heaters.

Installation - Venting

Calculating the Duct Length

The shortest passage for the expelled air is preferable, to ensure the tumble dryer functions most efficiently. Expelled air is slowed down in the vent duct due to friction against the inner walls of the duct, therefore the shorter the duct and the smoother the inner walls, the less friction occurs.

An elbow or bend creates more friction than a straight duct. An additional duct length factor should therefore be calculated for each elbow or bend (see Table

1). This factor expresses the resistance of the bend in terms of a straight length of duct.

The additional length factor is then added to the actual duct length to give the effective total duct length.

A larger duct diameter also helps to reduce friction. The duct diameter should therefore increase with increasing duct length.

To calculate the effective duct length:

^ Measure the actual duct length.

^ Establish the number of elbows or bends necessary, noting the type of bend, angle and radius involved (see

Table I).

^ Add the additional length factor as specified in Table I to the actual duct length to give the effective duct length.

^ The appropriate duct length can then be taken from Table II.

Note

Drying times and energy consumption remain unaltered for Ø100 mm ducting up to a total length of 15 metres. Longer ducting may lead to slight increases in drying times and energy consumption, but does not impair the function of the machine, if the necessary duct diameter is adhered to (see

Table II).
