Description  
Operating the dryer  
Dear Customer,  
Main Features

Thank you for choosing Miele  
heat-exchange principle.  
condenser (heat-exchanger) dryer!  
Ideal for condominiums – needs  
only a regular Canadian dryer wall  
outlet and room air for cooling.  
Saves space (normally taken by a  
vent).  
Function of Miele condenser  
dryer  
The condenser dryer evaporates water  
from damp clothes.  
2. No depressurization,  
The water vapor is then condensed and  
collected in a special container.  
3. No burden on dwelling’s existing  
venting system,  
Operation of Miele condenser  
dryer  
4. High energy efficiency:  
Axial air flow.  
Automatic moisture sensing and  
drying stage termination.  
The condenser dryer circulates air  
(trapped with wet laundry inside a  
reversibly rotating drum) via lint filters,  
heat exchanger and heaters, back into  
the drum in a closed loop.  
No venting to outside = the electrical  
energy is not blown outside, but  
stays in the room in form of dry heat  
(as opposed to a vented dryer).  
The vapor condenses inside the heat  
exchanger and is collected in a  
condensed water container.  
This dry heat helps to keep a house  
warm in cold months.  
The heat exchanger (condenser) needs  
cooling, so the dryer circulates ambient  
air, through separate channels across  
heat exchanger, in an open loop. (the  
two air flows do not mix).  
By helping to heat the house in  
winter, condenser dryer lowers  
overall energy needs of a house,  
thus becoming effectively more  
energy efficient than a vented dryer.  
Returning ambient air warms up the  
room with dry heat.  
Practically all energy, taken from the  
electrical wall outlet, remains in the  
room as dry heat.

The programmable functions can be  
used to adapt the dryer to your  
personal requirements. In programming  
mode, the display will show the function  
selected.  
When a program is selected, the  
estimated time remaining will be  
displayed. This is to be considered an  
estimate only.  
The following factors can lead to  
variations in the time remaining  
estimate: Residual moisture after  
spinning; type of fabric; size of load;  
ambient temperature, or fluctuations in  
the power supply.  
The adaptive electronics constantly  
adjusts to the individual wash load to  
ensure a more accurate estimate of  
time remaining. This estimate is  
permanently monitored during drying,  
which in some cases can lead to a  
change in the estimate.

Drying tips  
– Pure linens are dried only when  
indicated on the care label.  
– Always check the weight  
recommendation for maximum loads  
as listed in the "Program Overview"  
section.  
Otherwise the fabric may become  
rough. Handle these fabrics only in  
the Smoothing program.  
– Cottons (such as T-shirts and  
underwear) depending on quality,  
often shrink at the first wash.  
Overloading will cause wear and  
tear on the laundry, give a poor  
drying result and cause more  
creasing.  
Therefore: to avoid further shrinkage,  
do not over-dry these textiles.  
– Starched laundry may be dried. To  
achieve the usual finish, however,  
use a double amount of starch.  
– Wash new colored fabrics separately  
before the first drying. Do not dry  
them together with light-colored  
fabrics since their colors may run  
and discolor other garments or even  
plastic dryer components.

Leveling the dryer  
,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.  
,The air inlet/outlet vents on the  
front and back must NEVER be  
covered. Otherwise, sufficient  
condenser cooling cannot be  
ensured.  
To ensure trouble-free operation, the  
dryer must be level.  
^ Compensate for floor irregularities by  
turning the threaded feet in or out.

Ventilating the installation area  
Before transport at a later date  
After every drying, a small quantity of  
condensed water will collect in the  
pump area. This condensed water can  
leak out when the dryer is tipped. We  
therefore recommend starting the  
Timed cold program for about one  
minute before transport. Residual  
condensed water will be drained into  
the condensed water container or out  
through the drain hose.  
Function of Miele condenser dryer:  
The condenser dryer separates the  
mixture of water and laundry (the  
wet load) into water and dry laundry  
itself.  
The water is heated / evaporated,  
then condensed and collected into  
condensed water container.  
The remaining dry laundry remains  
in the drum.  
Operation of Miele condenser dryer:  
The dryer circulates some air  
(trapped with wet laundry inside a  
reversibly rotating drum) via lint  
filters, heat exchanger and heaters,  
in a closed loop.  
The heat exchanger (condenser)  
needs cooling, so the dryer  
circulates also ambient air, through  
separate channels across heat  
exchanger, in an open loop. ( these  
two loops do not mix).  
Returning ambient air warms up the  
room with dry heat.  
Practically all energy, taken from the  
electrical wall outlet, remains in the  
room as dry heat.  
You must therefore take measures,  
especially in small rooms, to provide  
sufficient ventilation, by opening  
windows for instance. Otherwise,  
longer running times may be  
expected.

Installation and connection  
Draining condensed water  
externally  
General  
When drying is in progress, the  
condensed water is pumped into the  
condensed water container through the  
drain hose at the back of the dryer.  
You can also drain it off externally  
through the drain hose - you will no  
longer need to empty the condensed  
water container.

^ Allow any residual water to run into  
the container.  
^ Unwind the hose from its coil and pull  
it carefully out of the holders.  
,Under special kinds of  
connection conditions, this dryer  
must be fitted with a non-return  
valve (see following pages).  
The following optional accessories are  
available:  
– an extension hose.  
– a non-return valve kit for conversion  
to an external water outlet  
(includes an extension hose).

valve fitted: 1.00 m  
^ Guide the hose to the right or left side  
of the dryer, as necessary.

^ See front view illustration.  
The drain hose with non-return valve  
can be connected directly to a special  
sink drain outlet.  
,If you decide to hook the hose  
up to a sink, secure it against being  
detached, by clamping it, for  
example. Otherwise overflowing  
water can cause damage.  
^ Use the bow-shaped holder to  
prevent the drain hose from  
becoming kinked.  
Special installation conditions  
requiring a non-return valve  
,Under special connection  
conditions, a non-return valve (kit  
available) for external water  
disposal (optional accessory) must  
be used. This will prevent the  
back-flow of water into the dryer and  
possible damage.  
^ Remove the accessories from the top  
of the rear side of the dryer:  
Adapter 1 and the hose clip 3 behind  
it.  
Such special conditions include:  
– Connection to a sink drain outlet (see  
following section).  
– Various kinds of connection, to which  
an automatic washer or dishwasher  
already in use are also connected.

Installation and connection  
^ Fit the adapter to the sink drain outlet  
1 with the sink coupling nut 2.  
Usually the sink coupling nut has a  
flat washer, which you must remove.  
^ Fit the end of the hose 4 to the  
adapter 1.  
^ Using a screwdriver, tighten the hose  
clip 3 directly behind the sink  
coupling nut.  
,Install the non-return valve 5 so  
that the arrow points in the direction  
of flow (towards the sink). Otherwise,  
pumping out will be impossible.
