Warning and Safety instructions  
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 frequency) match the mains  
electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.  
The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed  
~
when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety  
requirement is observed 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 tumble dryer (e.g. danger of overheating).  
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced  
~
by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from  
danger.  
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, otherwise any  
subsequent damage will not be covered by the guarantee. Ensure  
current is not supplied to the tumble dryer 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 tumble dryer be guaranteed.

Warning and Safety instructions  
The tumble dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in  
~
the event of a fault and during cleaning and maintenance.  
The tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location  
~
(e.g. on a ship).  
Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless  
~
authorised to do so by Miele.  
Heat pump technology and refrigerant:  
~
The heat pump in this tumble dryer uses a refrigerant which is  
condensed by the compressor and led in a closed circuit through  
the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange with the circulating  
drying air takes place.  
– The humming noises caused by the heat pump are normal and do  
not impair the efficient functioning of the dryer.  
– The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.  
– In general it is not necessary to leave the dryer standing for any  
length of time before it is put into operation provided it has been  
transported correctly (see "Installation").  
However, if it has not been transported as described, ensure that  
the recommended standing time prior to first operation is  
observed. Otherwise the heat pump can be damaged.  
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or  
~
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the tumble dryer  
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.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Correct use  
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried  
~
in this appliance:  
– 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 cosmetics, lotions etc).  
If items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that  
these might self-ignite when heated, even after they have been  
removed from the dryer at the end of the programme.  
– items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with  
inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of  
acetone, alcohol, benzine, petrol, kerosene, stain remover,  
turpentine, wax and wax remover or other chemicals.  
– 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  
additional detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt,  
wash the items several times.  
Remove all items such as lighters and matches from pockets.  
~
Warning: Do not switch the tumble dryer off before the drying  
~
programme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung  
up or spread out to cool it down.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Danger.  
~
This tumble dryer must not be connected to a controllable socket  
(e.g. a timer switch or a peak load shut-off device).  
If the dryer programme were to be interrupted before the end of the  
cooling down phase, the laundry could self-combust.  
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be tumble dried:  
~
– items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g.  
professional dry-cleaning agents).  
– 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.  
– 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.  
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.  
As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the  
drum.  
Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according  
~
to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.  
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 into the dryer or hiding things in it.  
– pets or other small animals climbing into it.

Warning and Safety instructions  
The tumble dryer must not be used:  
~
– without the fluff filters in place or if the fluff filters are damaged in  
any way.  
– without the fine filters in place of if the fine filters are damaged in  
any way.  
This would cause an excessive build-up of fluff which in turn would  
cause a fault.  
After every cycle remove fluff from the surfaces of the fluff filters.  
~
The fluff filters and the fine 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 and in the  
drain hose.  
If the water is drained externally 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 tumble dryer can cause blockages in the  
heat exchanger unit over time.  
The tumble dryer must not be hosed down.

Very hot  
– Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease  
more, the larger the load. This is also  
the case for garments made from  
very fine weave fabrics, such as  
shirts or blouses.  
Hot  
Warm  
Do not iron  
Make sure you select a suitable  
programme. If in doubt, divide the  
garments into smaller loads and  
select the Gentle tumble extra  
option.  
Tips on drying  
– Always observe the maximum  
recommended loads given in the  
"Programme chart". Never overload  
the drum.  
– Starched laundry can be dried in the  
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual  
finish, double the amount of starch  
should be used.  
Overloading can cause unnecessary  
wear and tear to the laundry, give a  
disappointing drying result and  
cause more creasing.  
– 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 dryer.  
Dark coloured fibres can also settle  
on light coloured garments and vice  
versa.  
– Do not put soaking wet items into the  
tumble dryer. Spin fabrics for at least  
30 seconds before drying.  
– Open jackets so that they can dry  
evenly.  
– Use the Automatic plus programme  
for drying mixed loads of cottons and  
minimum iron fabrics.

Cleaning the cooling fins  
(bottom right grille)  
,To prevent damaging the  
cooling fins, only pass the vacuum  
cleaner brush over them lightly,  
without applying any pressure.  
,In general, the cooling fins do  
not need cleaning. They should only  
be cleaned if the drying process is  
taking an exceptionally long time  
due to a very high level of dust or  
fluff in the room in which the dryer is  
installed.  
Use the yellow lever supplied to open  
the bottom right grille.  
^ Vacuum up any soiling carefully  
using a vacuum cleaner dusting  
brush or small crevice nozzle.  
^ Insert the lever in the middle of the  
gap at the top and lift it up gently  
(see arrow) until the grille opens out  
at the top.  
^ Now remove the grille by pulling it  
diagonally upwards.

Installation and connection  
Levelling the appliance  
Before moving the tumble dryer  
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 tumble dryer 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  
it. Any remaining condensed water will  
then be fed into the condensed water  
container or out through the drain hose.  
Washer-dryer stack  
The appliance must be perfectly level  
to ensure safe and proper operation.  
The tumble dryer can also be  
combined with a Miele washing  
machine in a washer-dryer stack. The  
appropriate "WTV" stacking kit* to  
match your dryer is required.  
* Miele accessory available to order  
,Stacking kits must only be  
installed by a suitably qualified fitter.  
^ The screw feet can be adjusted to  
compensate for any unevenness in  
the floor.  
,Do not block the gap between  
the bottom of the tumble dryer and  
the floor with plinth facings, deep  
pile carpet etc. This would hinder a  
sufficient flow of air to the dryer.

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.

Maximum drain hose length . . . . 4.00 m  
^ Pull the hose off its connection (see  
arrow).  
,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.  
^ Unwind the hose and pull it carefully  
out of the holders.  
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).

non-return valve fitted: 1.00 m  
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.

Installation and connection  
External drainage via a sink or gully  
Example: Connection to a sink drain  
outlet  
^ 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  
becoming kinked.  
Installation conditions requiring a  
non-return valve  
,Certain installation conditions  
require the fitting of a non-return  
valve for external water  
^ Remove the following from the back  
of the dryer at the top:  
connection (available as an  
optional accessory). A non-return  
valve will prevent the risk of  
back-flow out of the dryer which  
could cause damage.  
Adapter 1 and hose clip 3 behind it.  
A non-return valve is required:  
– If the tumble dryer is connected to a  
sink drain outlet (see the following  
section).  
– If the tumble dryer is connected to a  
drainage system already in use by  
another appliance, e.g. a dishwasher  
or washing machine.

^ Use a screwdriver to tighten hose  
clip 3 up close to the nut.  
,Non-return valve 5 has to be
