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
~
following textiles must not be dried in
tumble dryer:
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.

Programmable functions
The programmable functions can be
used to tailor drying programmes to suit
your individual requirements. In
programming mode, the display will
show the function selected.
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.
The electronics continually assess
conditions in the dryer 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.

these textiles. When purchasing
these garments it is advisable to take
their shrinkage properties into
account.
Overloading can cause unnecessary
wear and tear to the laundry, give a

– Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual
finish, double the amount of starch
should be used.
– Use the Automatic programme for
drying mixed loads of cottons and
minimum iron fabrics.
– 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 appliance.
Dark coloured fibres can also settle
on light coloured garments and vice
versa.
– Open jackets so that they can dry
evenly.
– 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.

for installation under a continuous
worktop run in a fitted kitchen.
– The slides (available to order) should
be used to protect the floor from
damage when the dryer is pushed
into position or taken out for
servicing.
– The electrical socket must be
located in an accessible position
near the machine.

Installation
Aligning the appliance
Room in which the dryer is located
Air taken in for use in the drying
process will be warm when it is
expelled from underneath 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.
Washer-dryer stack
The tumble dryer can also be
combined with a Miele washing
machine in a washer-dryer stack. To do
this the appropriate stacking kit (WTV)
(available to order) is required.
^ Turn the 4 screw feet to adjust the
dryer to the correct height and level.
Longer screw feet are available as
an optional accessory. Unscrew and
remove the feet supplied with the
dryer before fitting the longer screw
feet.
,The stacking kit must be fitted by
suitably qualified fitter.
Before moving the tumble dryer
again (e.g. when moving house)
The cover plate on the dryer must
be aligned horizontally underneath
the worktop.
After each use a small quantity of
condensed water will collect in the area
around the pump. This water can run
out, if the dryer is tipped up when it is
being moved. It is a good idea to run

the dryer. Any remaining condensed
water will then be fed into the

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