Warning and Safety Instructions Please read the operating instructions before using the tumble dryer for the first time. They contain important information about the safety, use and maintenance of the machine. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine. Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.
Warning and Safety Instructions In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply either when: – it is switched off at the mains or – the mains fuse is withdrawn. Adequate ventilation is essential, especially 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.
Warning and Safety Instructions There is a danger of fire with fabrics which: – contain rubber, foam rubber or rubber like materials – have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents – have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances – which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets). If these were damaged the filling could get out with the risk of igniting in the dryer.
Help to Protect the Environment Disposal of the Packing Material The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled. Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling. Disposal of Your Old Machine Old machines contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled.

Guide to the Machine Explanation of Control Panel Use of the Appliance A small panel is supplied with the machine to explain the symbols on the control panel. Position this on the left hand side next to the control panel. This automatic tumble dryer is particularly suitable for use in commercial and coin-op laundries, hotels, motels, nursing homes, dry cleaners, etc. where considerable amounts of laundry are handled.
Preparation of Laundry Wash Care Labels Before drying check the drying symbol on the wash care label. Significance of symbols: q = Dry at normal temperature r = Dry at low temperature s = Do not tumble dry If no symbol is featured dry at your own risk applying the following principles: Cottons and minimum iron items should be dried at a normal temperature using the appropriate program setting. Delicate fabrics with the following wash care label r, e.g. acrylics should be dried at a low temperature.

How to Dry Correctly Prepare the Laundry ^ As far as possible, sort laundry for: – the type of fibre or weave – the degree of dryness required – similar size of items – the moisture content after spinning. This will help towards achieving an even drying result. ^ Fasten duvet covers etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them. ^ Do up zippers and tie fabric belts and apron strings. Do not overload the drum.
How to dry correctly Select a program At the end of a program ^ Turn the program selector to the program required. ^ Turn the program selector to the r End position. ^ Select low temperature L if required. ^ Press the door a button to open the door. If the machine is fitted with a coin mechanism / time counter: ^ Insert coins or tokens. Remember to empty the coin / token box regularly, so that it does not become blocked.
Changing a program To cancel a program ^ Turn the program selector switch to the r End position. For safety reasons all programes where the residual moisture content is monitored have a maximum running time of 130 minutes, after which period the heater elements are switched off and the cooling down phase commences. To select a different program during drying ^ Turn the program selector to the required program. The new program starts from the beginning.
Cleaning and Care Cleaning the Lint Filters The lint which occurs during drying is collected in the lint filters in the door and in the door opening. Clean the filters after every program to reduce drying time and save energy. ^ Open the door and pull the lint filter up out of the door holder. ^ Push the cleaned filter back into the door holder and close the door. If there is a great deal of compacted lint on the filters, they can be cleaned under hot running water.
Cleaning and Care Casing and Drum Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply. Avoid contact of stainless steel surfaces (front, lid, casing) with liquid cleaning and disinfecting agents which contain chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. These agents can have a corrosive effect on stainless steel. Aggressive vapours containing chlorine bleach can also be corrosive. Do not store open containers or these agents near the machine.
Problem Solving Guide What to do if . . . ? With the help of the following notes minor faults in the performance of the machine, some of which may result from incorrect operation, can be put right without contacting the Service Department. Repairs to the machine should only be undertaken by a suitably qualified service engineer to ensure safety. Unauthorized repairs could be dangerous.

Problem Solving Guide To Change the Lamp Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply. To open the door during a power failure ^ Open the door. ^ Pull the door open. ^ Unscrew the plastic cover inside the drum, above the door. The lamp must not exceed the maximum wattage quoted on the data plate and on the plastic light cover. The temperature resistant lamp should be ordered from your Miele Dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department only.
Problem Solving Guide Service In the event of any faults which cannot be remedied, or if the machine is under warranty, please contact – Your Miele Dealer or – The nearest Miele Service Department (see back cover for address) When contacting the Service Department, please quote the Model and Serial numbers, both of which are located on the right hand side below the opening on the drum.

Installation Leveling the Machine Take into consideration the space required by the vent duct when calculating the distance between the machine and a wall or other appliances etc. to the sides or rear of the machine. A ventilation gap of 10 mm must be maintained between the base of the machine and the floor. This must not be blocked by sealing strips, deep pile carpet etc., as otherwise there will be insufficient flow of cool air for the machine to function correctly.
Installation - Venting Fitting the Exhaust Ducting The moist air produced during drying has to be vented to the outside. The dryer must only be operated when it is correctly fitted with exhaust ducting. The exhaust connection may be made: – to the rear of the machine (the machine is supplied as standard with this connection point open) or – to the left of the machine. The side exhaust connection has a cover cap. ^ At the same time turn the cover cap anti-clockwise.
Installation - Venting The following materials are suitable for the exhaust ducting: – galvanized steel – plastic ducting – flexible ducting. Note that all ducting must be of a suitable heat resistant specification. Install the exhaust ducting so that the expelled exhaust air cannot be sucked into the machine again. Standard accessories include an adapter for the exhaust ducting: Application: In installations where conditions do not allow the machine to be permanently connected to a ducting system.
Installation - Venting Calculating the Duct Length To calculate the effective duct length: The shortest passage for the expelled air is preferable, to ensure the tumble dryer functions most efficiently. Expelled air is slowed down in the vent duct due to friction against the inner walls of the duct, therefore the shorter the duct and the smoother the inner walls, the less friction occurs. ^ Measure the actual duct length.
