Warning and Safety instructions  
Correct use  
To prevent the risk of fire, the  
~
following must not be dried in this  
To prevent the risk of fire, the  
~
tumble dryer:  
following textiles must not be dried in  
this tumble dryer:  
– items which have been cleaned  
using chemicals (e.g. professional  
dry-cleaning agents).  
– items which have not been washed.  
– items, such as workwear, which have  
not been thoroughly cleaned and  
which are still soiled with grease, oil  
or other deposits (such as  
– fabrics which contain a large  
proportion of rubber, foam rubber or  
rubber-like materials. For example,  
products made from latex foam  
rubber, shower caps, waterproof  
textiles, rubberised articles and items  
of clothing and pillows with foam  
rubber filling.  
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.  
– damaged items which contain  
padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,  
jackets). When damaged, the filling  
can get out with the risk of igniting in  
the dryer.  
– items (e.g. mops and floorheads)  
which have been treated with  
inflammable cleaning agents or  
contain residues of acetone, alcohol,  
benzine, petrol, stain remover,  
turpentine, wax, wax remover or  
other chemicals.  
In many programmes, the heating  
~
phase is followed by a cooling down  
phase to ensure that the items are not  
too hot to handle when you remove  
them (this also avoids the danger of the  
laundry self-igniting). The programme is  
not finished until the cooling down  
phase has been completed.  
– items which have been splashed with  
hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish  
remover or similar substances.  
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.  
Ensure that you always wait until the  
end of the programme before removing  
the laundry.  
Warning: Do not switch the tumble  
~
dryer off before the end of the drying  
programme. If this was done and the  
laundry was then removed immediately  
it could give off a great amount of heat.  
Fabric conditioner and similar  
~
products must be used according to  
the instructions on the manufacturer's  
packaging.

Notes on laundry care  
Care symbols  
– Down-filled garments have linings  
which have a tendency to shrink,  
depending on the quality of the item.  
They can be partially dried using the  
Smoothing programme.  
Before drying check the drying symbol  
on the care label. If there are no  
symbols, dry at your own risk!

programmes. When purchasing  
these garments it is advisable to take  
their shrinkage properties into  
account.  
– Do not put soaking wet items into the  
tumble dryer. Spin them thoroughly  
after washing using the appropriate  
spin speed.  
– For garments made from very fine  
weave fibres, such as shirts or  
blouses, use the Shirts programme to  
avoid creasing. If in doubt, reduce  
the load or use the Smoothing  
programme.  
– For delicates and fabrics with the  
following care label r select Low  
temperature.  
– Use the Automatic programme for  
drying mixed loads of cottons and  
minimum iron fabrics.  
– Starched laundry can be dried in the  
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual  
finish, double the amount of starch  
should be used.  
– Open jackets so that they can dry  
evenly.  
– New dark coloured garments should  
be washed and dried separately  
from light coloured garments to avoid  
the danger of colours running and  
discolouring other garments or even  
plastic components in the machine.  
Dark coloured fibres can also settle  
on light coloured garments and vice  
versa.  
– 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  
handcare programme.

Programme duration / 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!  
E Start the programme  
The Start button will flash when a  
programme is being selected. The  
flashing indicates that a programme  
can be started.  
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.  
^ Press the Start button.  
The Start button will now light up  
constantly.  
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.  
Programme running will appear in the  
display, followed by Drying and the  
programme duration.  
With programmes with drying levels,  
e.g. Machine iron, Hand iron etc. the  
drying level reached will be shown in  
the display later on.  
In the same way, the Woollens  
handcare, Silks handcare 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.  
Important: Please note for programmes  
with drying levels that the programme  
duration shown in the display will vary  
according to the programme selected  
(see "Programme duration / Estimated  
time remaining").

creasing, if you do not wish to remove it  
immediately. The anti-crease phase  
lasts for 1 hour.  
^ Press the a button to open the  
door.  
^ Remove the laundry.  
Check that all items have been  
removed from the drum. If items are

If the dryer is switched on at the mains  
and the door is opened, the drum  
lighting will come on. It will go out a few  
minutes later to save energy.  
The dryer will switch off automatically

Levelling the machine  
,Do not block the gap between  
the bottom of the tumble dryer and  
the floor with plinth facings, deep file  
carpet etc. This would hinder a  
sufficient flow of air to the dryer.  
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 front 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.  
The machine must be perfectly level to  
ensure safe and proper operation.  
Washer-dryer stack  
The tumble dryer can also be  
combined with a Miele washing  
machine in a washer-dryer stack. The  
appropriate "WTV" stacking kit  
(available to order) to match your dryer  
is required.  
,Stacking kits must only be  
installed by a suitably qualified fitter.  
Before moving the machine again  
(e.g. when moving house)  
^ The screw feet can be adjusted to  
compensate for any unevenness in

General notes  
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 tumble dryer is installed near a sink,  
drain outlet etc. so that the condensed  
water container does not have to be  
emptied.

,If the on-site water drainage  
system is not fitted with a non-return  
valve or an appropriate air gap, one  
must be fitted to prevent the risk of  
back-flow. (See "Installation conditions  
requiring a non-return valve").  
^ Allow any residual water to run into  
the container.  
The following optional accessories are  
available:  
– an extension hose  
– a non-return valve kit for connection  
to an external condensed water  
outlet (includes an extension hose).

out of the holders.  
Arranging the drain hose  
,Do not pull on the drain hose and  
do not stretch it or allow it to become  
kinked as it could get damaged.  
^ Position the hose to the right or left  
hand side as necessary.  
Leave the hose in the middle holder to  
prevent it from becoming kinked  
inadvertently.

^ See "Front view" illustration.  
The drain hose with non-return valve  
fitted can be connected directly to a  
suitable sink drain outlet.  
,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
