Brief description
Please read the sections on “War-
ning and safety” and “Notes on
laundry care”.
Programmes are selected by turning
the programme selector and can be
supplemented by pressing the additio-
nal option buttons.
1Switching the machine on and
loading the laundry
Press the “START” button to begin a
programme.
Switch on by pressing the “I-On/0-
Off” button.
The indicator lights in the sequence dis-
play (on the right hand side of the con-
trol panel) show which stage has been
reached in the programme.
Press the “Door” button to open the
door.
Place the laundry loosely in the drum.
The Sensitive system automatically ad-
justs drying to suit the water quality
and ensure more precise results.
Swing the door shut but do not slam
it. Do not push on the door to shut it.
The Novotronic controls measure and
register the conductivity of the water
and compensate for variations to achie-
ve a uniform residual moisture level.
The automatic reversing action turns
the drum clockwise and anti-clockwise
to loosen the laundry and prevent une-
ven drying, ensuring good results.
2Selecting a programme
Turn the programme selector to the
drying level you require.
3Selecting additional option(s)
Press the buttons to switch additio-
nal options on or off as required.
Once the required degree of dryness is
achieved, the laundry is allowed to cool
down.
4Starting the programme
Press the “START” button.
At the end of the programme the anti-
crease action period begins. The drum
turns intermittently to reduce the forma-
tion of creases and folds.
Programmable functions can be used
to select or de-select some of the addi-
tional options and introduce further fun-
ctions. These combinations can be sto-
red in the machine’s memory and
called up.

Notes on laundry care
Notes on laundry care
– Pure linen*
Before drying, check the drying sym-
bol on the textile care label.
These items should only be machine
dried if specified as suitable by the ma-
nufacturer on the textile care label, as
the surface of the fabric may otherwise
“roughen”.
Significance of symbols:
q = Dry at normal temperature
r = Dry at low temperature
(also push in the “Low temperature”
button if required)
* Linen and down-filled items can, ho-
wever, be partially dried using the
“Smoothing” programme.
s = Do not tumble dry
t = Can be tumble dried
Notes:
If no symbol is featured, dry at your own
risk applying the following principles:
Some woven and loopknit materials
(eg T-shirts, cotton jersey material)
have a tendency to shrink, depending
on their quality, and this is often made
worse by over-drying. When purcha-
sing woven materials, it is advisable to
take their shrinkage properties into ac-
count.
Cotton and minimum iron items should
be dried in the appropriate programme
(see programme charts).
For delicate fabrics, eg acrylic, select
"Minimum iron" and also press the "Low
temperature" button.
Starched washing can be dried in the
tumble dryer. In order to achieve the
usual finish, double the amount of
starch should be used.
Never overload the drum. Always
observe the maximum recommen-
ded loads given in the “Programme
chart”. Overloading can cause un-
necessary wear and tear to the
laundry, give a disappointing drying
result and cause more creasing.
Minimum iron fabrics and 100% cotton
shirts or blouses tend to crease more,
when larger loads being dried, particu-
lary when the weave of the fabric is
very fine. Reduce the load or use the
Special care “Minimum iron – Hand
iron” programme. If this is unsatis-
factory use the “Smoothing” setting,
then hang the garments on a hanger to
dry.
The following fabrics should not be
dried in a tumble dryer:
– Woollens and wool blends
These fabrics tend to become matted
and shrink. These fabrics can, however,
be partially dried using the “Woollens
hand care” programme.
New dark-coloured fabrics should be
dried separately from light-coloured
fabrics to avoid colours running.
– Down-filled items*
The fine fabric interior tends to shrink,
depending on the quality.

mage the machine and the laundry.
Load the laundry very loosely into
the drum.
Do not overload the drum. Overloa-
ding can cause unnecessary wear
and tear to the laundry and give a
disappointing drying result.
Load the full amount of laundry ac-
cording to the programme chosen
(see “Programme chart”) for the
most economical drying related to
the size of the load. Make sure that
the drum is not over- or underloa-
ded.
Shut the door with a light swing but
do not slam it. Do not push on the
door to shut it.
As far as possible, sort fabrics for:
– the type of fibre or weave
– the degree of drying required
– similar size of items
– the moisture content after spinning.
This will help towards an even drying
result.
Ensure the room is well ventilated.

Fasten duvet covers etc to prevent
small items from being rolled up insi-
de them.

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

Cleaning and care
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the fluff filters
The fluff which is created by the drying
process is collected in the fluff filters in
the door and door opening.
Clean the filters after every program-
me to reduce drying time and save
energy.
These filters should only be removed
for cleaning with water.
Dry the filters well after rinsing and
put back in place.
Cleaning the tumble dryer
Disconnect the machine from the
power supply.
Open the door. Grip the filter by the
recessed handle and pull upwards
to remove.
Remove the fluff from:
– the filter in the door
– the filters in the door opening
Do not use any sharp or pointed ob-
jects.
Remove any fluff 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.
Clean . . .
. . . the housing and control panel:
with a mild detergent or soapy water;
. . . the drum and other stainless
steel parts: with a suitable proprie-
tary stainless steel cleaner following
the manufacturer’s instructions.
Never use abrasive substances,
scouring pads, glass or general pur-
pose cleaners. These could damage
plastic surfaces and other parts.
The machine must never be hosed
down.
Push the cleaned filter back into the
door holder and close the door.
If there is a great deal of compacted fluff
on the filters, they can be cleaned under
hot running water.
Dry all parts with a soft cloth.

Cleaning and care
Emptying the condensed wa-
ter container
If the hose drain has not been fitted
and connected, the condensed water
will be collected in the condensed wa-
ter container.
The condensed water container
should be emptied after every
drying cycle, or as soon as the
“Empty out container” indicator light
comes on.
If . . .
. . . the condensed water container is
full when a programme is started or
. . . it becomes full during a drying cycle:
– the “Empty out container” light will
come on,
Slide back the cap and pour the wa-
ter away.
Push the container back into the
machine until it engages into place.
– the buzzer will sound,
– the programme will be stopped,
– the washing will be cooled down and
the “Cool air” light will come on.
Condensed water should not be
drunk. It could lead to health pro-
blems for humans and animals.

Installation
Installation
The ventilation slots beneath the
door must on no account be
blocked as this will prevent a suf-
ficient intake of cold air.
Installation
Building under a continuous work-
top/in a row of kitchen units
A special conversion kit* is necessary.
– The machine lid is replaced by a co-
verplate which must be fitted by a
suitable competent person to ensure
electrical safety.
– When installing under a worktop with
a working height of 900/910 mm, a
spacer kit* is necessary.
The machine must be perfectly level to
ensure safe and proper operation.
Minor differences do not, however,
have an adverse effect on operation.
When built under, the running times
may be longer.
The tumble dryer can also be com-
bined with a Miele washing machine in
a washer and dryer stack. For this pur-
pose the appropriate stacking kit* to
match your washing machine is requi-
red.
*These items are available from your Miele dea-
ler.
(N.B. If you wish to push your machine
under a worktop and there is space to
do this without removing the lid, the
conversion kit is not necessary. Other-
wise the conversion kit is essential).
The screw feet can be adjusted to
compensate for any uneveness in
the floor surface.

table 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 ap-
proved to BS 1362 and have the cor-
rect rating. Replacement fuse covers
