Caring for the environment Disposal of packaging material Disposal of your old appliance The packaging material protects the dryer from transport damage. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled. Electrical and electronic appliances contain valuable materials. They also contain certain substances, compounds and components which were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following: WARNING This tumble dryer is intended for use in domestic households and similar working and residential environments. It is essential to read all instructions before using the appliance. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Important information regarding use of fabric softener sheets: We do not recommend use of fabric softener sheets. Use of fabric softener sheets can clog the surfaces of the lint filters, extending the drying time and increasing energy consumption. During subsequent cleaning, the plastic and surfaces of the lint filters can be damaged! The best results are obtained by using liquid fabric softener in the washing machine. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried in this dryer: - items which have not been washed. - items, such as work-wear, exposed to grease, oils, or other deposits (such as lotions or cosmetics) in your dryer. If these items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that they may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the laundry to ignite when heated even after being removed from the dryer.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Allow the dryer to complete each stage of the program selected, including the cooling down phase. This will ensure that the items being removed are not too hot to handle. Clean the lint filter before or after each load. Keep the area around the air intake (toe kick) and adjacent surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt. The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by qualified personnel. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Before installation, disconnect the tumble dryer from the electrical supply by shutting off the power main, unplugging the power cord or tripping the circuit breaker. Do not restore power until the installation is complete. Miele tumble dryers and Miele washing machines can be installed as a washer-dryer stack.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Heat-pump technology and refrigerant: The heat pump in this tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which is condensed by the compressor. The refrigerant, which is brought to a higher temperature level and liquified by condensing, is 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 during the drying process are normal.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Using a fragrance flacon (optional accessory) Only use genuine Miele original fragrance flacons. Store the fragrance flacon in its original packaging. Caution: The fragrance can leak out of the flacon! Make sure that you always keep the flacon, or the lint filter with the flacon inserted in it, in a horizontal position when carrying and do not tip or place it down on any surface.

Energy-saving tips - Make sure your laundry is spun at the maximum spin speed in the washing machine before drying. The higher the spin speed, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying, e.g., approx. 20% energy can be saved if spun at 1,600 rpm instead of 1,000 rpm. - Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the drying program being used. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is at its most economical.
Functioning of the heat-pump dryer Two separate circuits ensure that the laundry is dried: Dry air circuit The drying air flows through a heat exchanger, the drum, and several filters. This is ensured by a blower in the dryer. - The drying air flows through the heat exchanger in the longitudinal direction and is heated in the rear area. - The drying air is then blown into the drum, where it absorbs the moisture of the laundry.

1. Notes on correct laundry care Points to note regarding washed laundry - When washing very heavily soiled items, ensure that you use sufficient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt, wash the items several times. - Do not load the drum with items that are still soaking wet. Make sure your laundry is spun at the maximum spin speed before drying. The higher the spin speed, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying.
1. Notes on correct laundry care Drying Tip: See the “Program chart”. This describes the programs and gives their maximum load. - Always observe the maximum recommended load for each program. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is at its most economical. - Down-filled garments have linings which have a tendency to shrink, depending on the quality of the item. Only use the SoftSteam program for these items.
2. Loading the tumble dryer Loading the laundry Textiles may be damaged. Before loading, read “1. Notes on correct laundry care”. Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum.
