en-GB

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

Electrical and electronic appliances

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 appliance.

Please do not therefore dispose of your

appliance with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre and 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 (see

Programme chart).

Underloading is uneconomical.

Overloading gives a poorer quality of

drying and may cause unnecessary

creasing.

– Make sure the room in which the

dryer is located is well ventilated.

– Make sure the fluff filters are clean

before using the dryer.

– Check the condenser unit from time

to time and clean it when necessary.

This tumble dryer conforms to

current safety requirements.

Inappropriate use can, however,

lead to personal injury and damage

to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and

damage to the tumble dryer, please

read these instructions carefully

before using it for the first time. They

contain important information on its

safety, installation, use and

maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe

place and ensure that new users are

familiar with the content. Pass them

on to any future owner.

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.

"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. Miele cannot be held liable

for damage resulting from incorrect or

improper use or operation.

~This tumble dryer is not intended for

use by persons (including children)

with reduced physical, sensory or

mental capabilities, or lack of

experience or knowledge, unless they

have been given supervision or

instruction concerning its use by a

person responsible for their safety.

Safety with children

~Keep children away from the tumble

dryer at all times. It is not a toy! To

avoid the risk of injury do not allow

them to play on or near it or to play with

its controls. Supervise children whilst

you are using it.

~Older children may only use it if its

operation has been clearly explained to

them, and they are able to use it safely,

recognising the dangers of incorrect

use.

Technical safety

~Before setting up the tumble dryer,

check it for any externally visible

damage.

Do not install or use a damaged tumble

dryer.

~Before connecting the tumble dryer,

ensure that the connection data on the

data plate (voltage and connected

load) match the mains electricity

supply. If in any doubt, consult a

qualified electrician.

Warning and Safety instructions

~The electrical safety of this tumble

dryer can only be guaranteed when

continuity is complete between it and

an effective earthing system which

complies with current local and national

safety regulations. It is most important

that this basic safety requirement is

present and regularly tested, and

where there is any doubt the household

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).

~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

machine (e.g. danger of overheating).

~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.

Ensure current is not supplied to the

machine 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

machine be guaranteed.

~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 tumble dryer 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 has been withdrawn,

or the screw-out fuse removed (in

countries where this is applicable).

~This tumble dryer may only be used

in mobile installations such as ships if a

risk assessment of the installation has

been carried out by a suitably qualified

engineer.

~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 guarantee.

Correct use

~Do not let anyone sit or lean on the

door, as this can cause the tumble

dryer to tip up.

~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.

Warning and Safety instructions

~The dryer must not be used without

the fluff filters in place or if the fluff

filters are damaged in any way.

~The dryer must not be used without

the condenser unit in place.

~The fluff filters must be thoroughly

dried after cleaning. Damp or wet filters

could cause operational faults.

~Do not install the tumble dryer in a

room where there is a risk of frost

occurring. At temperatures around

freezing point the tumble dryer may not

be able to operate properly.

There is a risk of damage if the

condensed water is allowed to freeze in

the pump, hoses and / or condensed

water container.

The ambient room temperature should

be between +2°C and +35°C.

~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

tumble dryer free of dust and fluff. Dust

drawn into the machine can over time

cause blockages in the condenser unit.

Warning and Safety instructions

~To prevent the risk of fire, the

following textiles must not be dried

in this tumble dryer:

–fabrics which contain a large

proportion of rubber, foam rubber or

rubber-like materials.

–items which contain damaged

padding or fillings (e.g. pillows and

jackets).

If the filling comes out it could ignite

and cause a fire.

–items which have been treated with

inflammable cleaning agents.

– items which have been splashed with

hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish

remover or similar substances.

– items soiled with wax or other

chemicals (e.g. mops and floor

cloths).

– items, such as workwear, which have

not been thoroughly cleaned and

which are still soiled with grease, oil

or other desposits (such as

cosmetics, lotions etc).

If items have not been thoroughly

cleaned there is a danger that these

might ignite when heated, even after

they have been removed from the

dryer at the end of the programme.

When washing such heavily soiled

items: ensure that you use sufficient

detergent and select a high

temperature. If in doubt, wash the

items several times.

Accessories

~Accessory parts may only be fitted

when expressly approved by Miele. If

non-Miele parts are used, guarantee,

performance and product liability

claims may be invalidated.

Miele cannot be held liable for

damage caused by non-compliance

with these Warning and Safety

instructions.

Guide to the machine

Features

Display

The display shows:

–the programme duration (time

remaining);

–the delay start time;

–check messages;

–programmable functions.

Estimated time remaining

When a programme is selected the

estimated duration (time remaining) 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 hand

care and Smoothing programmes can

finish earlier than expected if a certain

temperature is reached. This can

happen with particularly fine fabrics,

very small loads or if items were partly

dry beforehand.

Buttons and check lights
