Technical data

If the connection cable is faulty, it
must only be replaced with a
genuine Miele connection cable.
In the event of a fault or for
cleaning purposes, the machine is
only completely isolated from the
electricity supply when:
–
it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or
–
it is switched off at the mains, or
–
the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Use
This equipment may only be used
in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
The machine must not be used
without vent ducting in place.
The dryer must not be used without
the fluff filter in place or if the fluff
filter is damaged in any way.
Check all parts of the ventilation
system on a regular basis (e.g. wall
pipe, external grille, bends in the
ducting etc.), and make sure they are
all free of any hindrance. A build-up of
fluff will prevent a free flow of air
through the system. If the dryer is to be
connected to an existing ducting
system, this must be checked for
suitability beforehand.
Adequate ventilation is essential to
avoid the danger of asphyxia and
toxic fumes where another appliance
which also uses the room air (e.g. gas,
oil or coal fired heater, continuous flow
or other water heater) is installed in the
same or an adjacent room.
To ensure safe operation, and to
prevent gases given off by these
appliances being drawn back into the
room, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar is
the maximum permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by:
–
air inlets in the external wall which
cannot be closed or blocked, or
–
by fitting a window contact switch
which ensures that the tumble dryer
can only be operated when the
window is opened wide enough.
If in doubt, the advice of a competent
builder must be sought.
The exhaust air must not be vented
into a chimney or vent flue which is
in current use for something else, e.g. a
chimney for an open fire, wood burner
or operational gas boiler, nor should it
be connected to ducting which
ventilates rooms with fireplaces. It
would be dangerous if smoke or
exhaust fumes were drawn back into
the room.
