Caring for 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.

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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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.

6

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

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.

7

Warning and Safety instructions

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.

Notes on laundry care

Wash care symbols

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

q . . . . . . . . . Dry at normal temperature r . . . . . . . . . . Dry at a low temperature s . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Do not tumble dry

678ö9. . . . . . . . . . . . Cottons

1234 . Minimum iron/Delicates

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

low temperature

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 programme.

Shirts

– 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.

How to dry correctly

Brief instructions

The heading numbered (

A, B, C ...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide to using your machine.

A Sort 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.

C Load the tumble dryer

^ Press the a button 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 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.

B

Turn 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.

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.

15

How to dry correctly

Before the end of a programme

There is a cooling down phase at the end of the drying sequence:

27

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the fluff filters

The fluff which is created by the drying process is collected by the fluff filters in the door and the door opening. Clean the filters after each drying programme.

Cleaning them whilst dry

^ Remove any fluff from the hollow part of the door holder. A cleaning brush is available as an optional extra from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare

Parts Department.

Tip: You can also use a vacuum cleaner.

^ Once clean, push the filter back into the door holder until it clicks into position. Ensure it is facing the correct way.

^ Open the door and pull the fluff filter out of the door as illustrated.

^ Use your fingers to remove the fluff from the two fluff filters in the door opening.

^ Close the door.

^ Use your fingers to remove the fluff from the surface of the filter.

28

Cleaning and care

Cleaning them with water

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

^ To remove the fluff filter from the door holder see previous page.

^ Place the filters back in the door opening (the left and right filters are identical) with the finger holders facing upwards. See illustration.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

Do not replace them if they are damp or wet. Damp or wet filters could cause operational faults.

^ Push the large filter back into the door holder until it clicks into position.

Ensure it is facing the correct way.

Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-purpose cleaners. These could damage plastic sufaces and other parts. The machine must never be hosed down.

^ Dry all parts with a soft cloth.

^ A microfibre E-Cloth is available from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department which is suitable for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals. It can be washed

300 times.

29

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the condenser unit

Detergent residue, hair and fine fluff from the dryer can get through the fluff filters and block the condenser unit.

Dust from the room in which the dryer is installed can also get into the condenser unit and cause a blockage.

Check the condenser unit at least twice a year. If the dryer is used frequently then clean the condenser unit after approx. 100 drying cycles.

Removing the condenser unit

The drying process goes on too long or even switches off.

The laundry is not sufficiently dry.

Possible cause Remedy

In some circumstances the following message also appears:

Clean fluff filters

Please check all the possible causes and switch the dryer off and then back on again.

Ventilation to and from the dryer may be insufficient

(e.g because it is installed in a small room). This has caused the temperature in the room to rise sharply.

Open a door or window while the machine is in operation for increased air flow.

The fluff filters are clogged up with fluff or were still wet when they were replaced.

The laundry has not been spun sufficiently.

– Remove any fluff.

– The fluff filters must be completely dry.

Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun at the washing machine's maximum spin speed.

The tumble dryer has been overloaded.

Metallic components, e.g.

zips have prevented the dryer from registering the correct moisture level in the laundry.

Do not exceed the maximum load for the programme selected.

– Close zips and fasten any hooks next time.

If the problem occurs again, dry garments with long zips using the

Warm air programme (timed drying).

Detergent residues, hair and fine fibres can block up the condenser unit.

Problem solving guide

Problem

The condenser unit service panel will not shut.

Water leaks from the machine after the condenser unit has been cleaned.

Items made of synthetic fibres are charged with static electricity after drying.

There is a build up of fluff.

There are water droplets at the upper edge of the drum aperture.

Possible cause

The inner cover of the condenser unit has not been locked properly and/or the condenser unit has not been positioned correctly.

Remedy

– Ensure that the condenser unit is positioned correctly and lock the cover.

– Check the rubber seals.

Fluff has collected at the bottom of the condenser unit housing.

Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.

– Use a cloth to remove any fluff from the inside of the condenser unit housing.

Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric conditioner to the final rinse in the washing machine or a fabric conditioner sheet to the load in the dryer.

Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and can be easily removed (see Cleaning and Care).

Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are being worn and washed.

Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form and, as has been established by research institutes, has no effect on the lifetime of fabric.

A double filter system prevents fluff from being deposited in the condenser unit. This insulation can lead to a build-up of condensation.

Laundry being removed from the machine may come into contact with these water droplets, but they will dry off in a matter of minutes.

Installation

Installation site

,

Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation.

A building under kit * is required.

The machine lid is replaced by a coverplate which must be fitted by a suitably qualified person to ensure electrical safety.

Transporting the machine to its installation site

When moving the machine you can hold it by the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the dryer.

To manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing case to its installation site you will also need to hold it by the front feet.

Building under a continous worktop / in a row of kitchen units

– When installing under a 900/910 mm high worktop a spacer kit* is required.

– The electrical socket must be located in an accessible position near the machine.

* Available as an optional accessory from your Miele dealer or the Miele

Spare Parts Department.

The building under kit is supplied with its own installation instructions.

When built under running times may be longer.

The dryer should not be installed next to a refrigerator or freezer. The warm air expelled from the rear of the dryer would increase the temperature around the refrigerator's/freezer's heat exchanger causing the compressor to run continuously.

If it is not possible to install the dryer anywhere else, then the refrigerator/freezer must be sealed off from the dryer.

Replacing the lid

If the lid has been removed in order to fit a cover plate, ensure that, if the lid is replaced, it fits securely into the rear holders. Otherwise, it is not properly secure for transport.

41

Installation

Aligning the machine

The machine must be perfectly level to ensure safe and proper operation.

^ The screw feet can be adjusted to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.

,

The ventilation gaps in the plinth must not be covered over as this would prevent a sufficient intake of air.

Room in which the dryer is located

Air taken in for use in the drying process will be warm when it is expelled from the rear of the dryer. This expelled air heats up the air in the room. It is therefore very important to ensure that the room is adequately ventilated, particularly if the dryer is located in a small room. Otherwise running times and energy consumption could be increased.

Washer - dryer stack

The tumble dryer can also be combined with a Miele washing machine in a washer-dryer stack. To do this the appropriate stacking kit* (WTV) to match your washing machine is required.

* Available as an optional accessory from your Miele dealer or the Miele

Spare Parts Department. Stacking kits must be fitted by a suitably qualified fitter.

Before moving the machine again

(e.g. when moving house)

After each use a small quantity of condensed water will collect in the area around the pump. This water can run out if the machine is tipped up when it is being moved. It is a good idea to run the

Cool air

programme for approximately 1 minute before moving the machine. Any remaining condensed water will then be fed into the condensed water container or out through the drain hose.

42

Installation

External condensed water outlet

When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can also be drained off directly if the machine is installed near a sink, drain outlet etc. so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied.

The drain hose (approx. 2 m long) is stored in the dryer. It must be pulled out of the dryer to its full extent if condensed water is to be drained externally.

Maximum delivery head: 1 m.

If it is not long enough, an extension hose is available as an optional accessory through your dealer or from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.

Pulling out the drain hose

From the back of the dryer at the top:

From the back of the dryer at the bottom:

^ Unclip the drain hose from holder (3) .

^ Then pull the drain hose completely out of the dryer towards the left (4)

(See illustration).

,

Important: do not let the drain hose become kinked as this could damage it.

,

If you want to drain the water off into a sink you will need to secure the hose carefully, e.g. by tying it to a tap to make sure it cannot slip during use. Otherwise there is a risk of overflowing water which could cause damage.

Use the bow-shaped guide to prevent the drain hose from becoming kinked

(see "Front view" illustration).

^ Unclip the drain hose

(1) .

^ Then pull it off holder (2) .

43

Installation

Connection to a sink drain outlet

The drain hose can be connected directly to a sink drain outlet.

^ Remove the following from the back of the dryer at the bottom:

Adapter 1 and hose clip 3 behind it.

If this nut has a flat disc sealing it you should take the disc out first.

Important: if this nut has a washer or seal in it this must not be removed!

^ Attach the end of the hose to adapter

1 .

^ Use a screwdriver to tighten hose clip 3 up close to the nut.

Electrical connection

Electrical connection U.K.

All electrical work should be carried out only by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations.

Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance while installation work is being carried out.

The appliance is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug for connection to a 230-240V mains supply.

The voltage, rated load and fuse rating are given on the data plate . Please ensure these match the household mains supply.

Connection should be made via a fused plug and suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation.

For extra safety it is advisable to install a residual current device (RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA (in accordance with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100, section

739).

Do not connect via an extension lead.

Important

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green/yellow = earth

Blue = neutral

Brown = live

Electrical connection U.K.

Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363

If this machine is fitted with a non-rewireable plug and the socket outlets are not suitable for the plug supplied or if the existing plug needs to be replaced by a new one, the old plug will need to be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. The fuse carrier and the fuse should be removed from the old plug and disposed of.

The plug cut from the cable should then be disposed of and on no account be inserted into any socket elsewhere in the house (electric shock hazard).

The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted).

Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier or Service agent.
