Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled. Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appliance
Electronic and electrical appliances contain many valuable materials. They also contain certain materials, compounds and components which were essential for their correct functioning and safety. These could be hazardous to your health and to the environment if disposed of with general waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with general waste.

Take care not to damage your tumble dryer’s pipework and heat exchanger before or during transportation to an authorised collection depot. This is to ensure that coolant in the tumble dryer and oil in the compressor is contained, and will not leak into the environment. Please make use of officially designated collection and disposal points to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances in your local community, with your dealer or with Miele. By law, you are solely responsible for deleting any personal data from the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Warnings and safety instructions
Technical safety Before setting up the tumble dryer, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not install or use a damaged tumble dryer. Before connecting the tumble dryer, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system complies with the specifications of EN 50160 or an equivalent standard. The function and operation of the protective measures provided in the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described, for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001­2 ISO 45001. The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the household wiring system tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock). Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead, multi-socket adapter or similar. These can overheat and are a fire hazard. If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from danger.
9

Warnings and safety instructions Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved service technician, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty. Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used. The tumble dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply in the event of a fault and during cleaning and maintenance. This tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship). Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless authorised to do so by Miele.
10

Warnings and safety instructions This tumble dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with
particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must only be used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised person or the Miele Service Department. This tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which is condensed by the compressor. Having been increased to a high temperature level as as result of the condensing process, the refrigerant passes through a closed refrigerant circuit. The heat generated is transferred to the drying air as flows through the heat exchanger. – The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. They do not impair the efficient functioning of the tumble dryer. – The refrigerant is environmentally friendly and causes no damage to the ozone layer. Damage to the tumble dryer by switching it on too soon. This can damage the heat pump. After setting up the tumble dryer, wait for at least one hour before starting a drying programme.
11

Warnings and safety instructions
The R290 refrigerant contained in this tumble dryer is flammable and explosive. If the tumble dryer is damaged, proceed as follows: – Avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark. – Disconnect the tumble dryer from the electrical supply. – Air the room where the tumble dryer is located. – Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
Risk of fire and explosion due to damage to the tumble dryer. The refrigerant is flammable and explosive if it leaks. Take measures to protect the tumble dryer against damage. Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer. Follow the instructions in “Installation” and “Technical data”. The accessibility of the plug must always be ensured, in order to disconnect the tumble dryer from the mains. 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. Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation. Correct use The maximum load for this tumble dryer is 9.0 kg (dry weight). The maximum recommended loads for individual programmes are given in the Programme chart. To prevent the risk of fire, do not connect the tumble dryer via a controllable socket (e.g. a timer or a peak-load switch-off device). If the drying programme is interrupted before the end of the cooling down phase, this could cause the laundry to self-ignite.
12

Warnings and safety instructions Warning: Do not switch the dryer off before the drying pro-
gramme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung up or spread out to cool it down. Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according to the instructions on the manufacturer’s packaging. Remove all items from pockets (e.g. lighters, matches). The fluff filters must be cleaned after every drying cycle. The fluff filters or the plinth filter must be thoroughly dried after cleaning. Wet fluff/plinth filters could cause operational faults while drying.
13

Warnings and safety instructions To prevent the risk of fire, textiles that have not been cleaned thor-
oughly or are still soiled with deposits of any kind must not be dried in this tumble dryer. This applies in particular to textiles that – have not been washed. – have not been thoroughly cleaned and are still soiled with grease,
oil or other deposits (such as cooking oils, cosmetics, lotions, etc.). If items have not been thoroughly cleaned, there is a danger that they might ignite when heated, even after they have been removed from the tumble dryer at the end of the programme. – have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of acetone, alcohol, benzene, petrol, kerosene, stain remover, turpentine, wax and wax remover or other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths). – items that 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.
14

Warnings and safety instructions
To prevent the risk of fire, these textiles must not be tumble dried: – textiles that have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional
dry-cleaning agents) – textiles 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. – textiles containing padding or fillings which are damaged (e.g. pillows, jackets). The filling could fall out and cause a risk of fire. The heat pump that is essential to the operation of this tumble dryer generates a great deal of heat inside its casing. There must be a reliable means of dissipating this heat. Otherwise loads could take longer to dry or the tumble dryer might sustain damage in the long term. The following mandatory requirements must be met: – permanent room ventilation from the beginning to the end of every drying programme – a gap between the floor and the bottom of the tumble dryer (this must not be blocked or obstructed in any way) The tumble dryer must not be hosed down. Do not let anyone sit or lean on the door, as this can cause the tumble dryer to tip up. 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. As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the drum.
15

Warnings and safety instructions Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the
danger of: – Children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it. – Pets or other small animals climbing into it. The tumble dryer must not be used without fluff filters or – with damaged fluff filters, or – with a damaged plinth filter. This would cause an excessive build-up of fluff which in turn would cause a fault. Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the tumble dryer may not be able to operate properly. There is a risk of damage if the condensed water is allowed to freeze in the pump and hoses. If the water is drained externally through the drain hose instead of being collected in the condensed water container, make sure the drain hose is securely attached if you hang it in a sink or basin to avoid the hose slipping and the water causing damage. Condensed water is not drinking water. It can cause health problems in both people and animals if consumed. Always keep the area around the tumble dryer free of dust and fluff. Dust drawn into the tumble dryer can cause blockages in the heat exchanger over time.
16

Warnings and safety instructions
Using a fragrance flacon (optional accessory) Only use genuine Miele original fragrance flacons. The fragrance flacon must be stored in its packaging so please make sure you retain this. Caution. The fragrance can leak out of the flacon. Make sure that you always keep the flacon, or the fluff filter with the flacon inserted in it, in a horizontal position when carrying and do not tip or place down on any surface. Use an absorbent cloth to wipe up any fragrance which has leaked out of the flacon onto the floor, the dryer or any dryer components (e.g. the fluff filter) immediately. If fragrance which has leaked out of a flacon: comes into contact with the skin – wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water; comes in contact with the eyes – rinse the eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes; is swallowed – rinse out the mouth thoroughly with clean water. Seek medical advice in the case of contact with the eyes or if fragrance has been swallowed. If fragrance which has leaked out of a flacon comes in contact with clothing, change the clothing immediately. Wash the clothing or any cloths used for mopping up fragrance thoroughly with plenty of water and detergent. There is the risk of fire or damage to the tumble dryer if the following instructions are not observed: – Never refill a flacon with fragrance. – Never use a faulty fragrance flacon. Dispose of an empty fragrance flacon with the household waste and never use it for any other purpose. Please also observe the information supplied with the fragrance flacon.
17

Warnings and safety instructions Accessories Only use genuine Miele original spare parts and accessories with
this appliance. If non-Miele parts are used, warranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated. The tumble dryer can be combined with a Miele washing machine in a washer-dryer stack. The appropriate “WTV” stacking kit (available to order) to match your tumble dryer and washing machine is required.

22

Before using for the first time

Availability of the WiFi connection The WiFi connection shares a frequency range with other appliances (including microwave ovens and remote control toys). This can give rise to sporadic or even complete connection failures. Therefore, the availability of featured functions cannot be guaranteed.
Miele@home availability The ability to use the Miele app depends on the availability of the Miele@home service in your country. The Miele@home service is not available in every country. For information about availability, please visit www.miele.com.
Miele App The Miele App is available to download free of charge from the Apple App Store® or from the Google Play StoreTM.

Wash2Dry Once the programme has come to a proper end, the Miele washing machine transfers the programme data via the router to which the networked tumble dryer is also connected, as well as transferring it to the Miele Cloud. The tumble dryer automatically sets a drying programme tailored to the laundry based on the transferred programme data. All you need to do is start the drying programme once you have loaded the tumble dryer. No further programme settings are required on the tumble dryer. Tip: The drying programme must be started within 24 hours of the end of the wash programme. The data will be kept available for the tumble dryer during this period, but will be overwritten when a new wash programme ends. Tip: Do not disconnect the tumble dryer from the network. The programme data transferred by the washing machine will be received by the tumble dryer as soon as you select Wash2Dry. If you have disconnected the appliance from the network beforehand, this will cause a delay in receiving the data.

Energy saving tips

Energy saving tips
This dryer with heat-pump technology is designed for energy-saving drying cycles. However, you can save a little more energy with the following measures as the drying time is not extended unnecessarily. – 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, e.g. approx. 20% energy can be saved if spun at 1600 rpm instead of 1000 rpm. – Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the programme being used. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is at its most economical. – Make sure that the room temperature is not too high. If there are other heat producing appliances in the room in which the dryer is located, make sure the room is well ventilated and switch the other appliances off, if possible. – Clean the fluff filters in the door opening after every drying cycle. Please refer to “Cleaning and care” for information on cleaning the fluff filters and the plinth filter.

– If possible, make use of time-variable, low-cost electricity tariffs. Ask your energy supplier for information. Your tumble dryer’s delay start function will be useful as you can select when during the next 24 hours you want drying to start automatically.

26

Energy saving tips

Feedback
You can view information about the energy consumption of your tumble dryer with the sensor. The following information will appear in the display: – An estimate of the energy consump-
tion before the programme begins. – The actual energy consumption dur-
ing the programme or at the end of the programme.

1. Viewing the estimated consumption

After selecting a drying programme, touch the sensor.

The estimated energy consumption level will be displayed as a bar chart.

OK

The more bars visible (), the higher the energy consumption.

The estimate will vary depending on the drying programme, temperature and any options selected.

Touch the OK sensor or wait until the display automatically returns to the standard display.

2. Viewing the actual consumption

The actual energy consumption can be viewed during the programme or at the end of the programme.

Touch the sensor control.

Energy

< 0.1 kWh OK

If the energy consumption is too low, < 0.1 kWh will be displayed. The consumption will alter as the programme progresses.

It is also possible to view the degree of soiling of the filter as a % at the end of the programme before you open the door. Touch the sensor to switch to the
Filter display. 0 % = lightly soiled, 50 % = moderately soiled, 100 % = heavily soiled. Increased soiling will cause the programme duration to increase which in turn will increase energy consumption.

If the door is opened or the appliance has switched off automatically at the end of the programme, the data will revert to the estimated consumption.

Tip: You can view the consumption data for the last drying programme in Settings under Consumption.

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 put soaking wet items into the tumble dryer. Make sure your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying. The higher the spin speed, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying.
– 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 dryer. Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa.
– Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.
Preparing the laundry before drying
Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the laundry. Foreign objects can melt, burn, or explode. Ensure that any foreign objects, e.g. detergent dispensing balls, lighters, etc. have been removed from the laundry.

Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation. The laundry can burn and destroy the dryer and the surroundings. See “Warning and Safety” instructions for further information.
– Sort the laundry according to the type of fibre and weave, size, garment care label symbol and the drying level required.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact. This way you will avoid the danger of fillings coming out. These could catch fire when being dried.
– Disentangle the laundry. – Tie together textile belts and ties. – Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them. – Fasten hooks and eyes. – Leave jackets open and undo any long zips so that textiles dry evenly. – Sew in or remove underwiring from bras. – If necessary, reduce the size of the load for these types of fabric. Easy care fabric tends to crease more, the larger the load. This is particularly the case for garments made from very fine weave fabric, such as shirts or blouses.

1. Notes on correct laundry care

Drying
Tip: See the “Programme chart”, which contains everything you need to know about programmes and load sizes. – Always observe the maximum recom-
mended load size for each programme. 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 Pre-Ironing programme for these textiles. – Pure linen should only be tumble dried if it is specified as suitable on the care label. The surface of the fabric may otherwise become rough. Only use the Pre-Ironing programme for these textiles. – Woollens and wool blends are susceptible to becoming matted or shrinking. Only use the Woollens handcare programme for these textiles. – Jersey fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, underwear) tend to shrink when they are washed for the first time. To prevent further shrinkage, avoid overdrying jersey fabrics. If possible, choose a slightly bigger size when buying garments made from jersey fabrics. – If the fabrics are particularly heatsensitive or susceptible to creasing, reduce the load size. Also select the DryCare 40 extra option.

2. Load the tumble dryer
Loading the laundry
Preventing damage to fabrics. Before loading the dryer, read “1. Notes on correct laundry care”.

Checking FragranceDos If you are not using a fragrance flacon, check that the FragranceDos sockets are closed.
The “Fragrance flacon” chapter describes how to use the fragrance flacon.

Open the door. Remove any items that have been left
inside the drum. Unfold the laundry and load loosely
into the drum.

Push the tab down completely (see arrow) so that the socket is closed. Otherwise, fluff will accumulate here.
Close the door

Do not overload the drum. Doing so will cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and affect the drying result. It is also likely to cause more creasing.

Laundry items may be damaged if they get trapped by the door.

Shut the door with a gentle swing.

Selecting the drying level

Check the “Programme chart” to see which programme you can select a drying level for and which drying level meets your requirements.

Normal

0:55 OK

Touch the or sensors to select a drying level.

HygieneDry drying level Tip: The HygieneDry drying level can be selected for some programmes. Specific hygiene requirements for robust garments with the care symbol are met. HygieneDry dries items at a temperature that is constant over an extended period of time (extended temperature holding time). This kills off micro-organisms (such as germs or dust mites) and reduces allergens in the laundry.

Tip: Reduce the load size for the corresponding programme to half the maximum load size specified in these operating instructions. Temperature holding time – An estimated programme running
time is displayed at the start of a programme for which the HygieneDry drying level has been selected. – The programme completes the normal drying process for laundry care first. The finish time counts down to 0 minutes. Then the temperature holding time starts.

– At the start of the temperature holding time, the remaining programme running time is extended by 85 minutes to produce a hygienic drying result.
A programme for which the HygieneDry drying level has been selected should not be interrupted, as this would prevent the micro-organisms from being killed off. Do not cancel the drying programme.

4. Selecting programme settings

SmartStart The SmartStart function lets you define a time period during which your tumble dryer will start automatically. The appliance will start on receipt of a signal, e.g. from your energy supplier, that indicates that the electricity tariff is particularly economical. This function is active when the SmartGrid setting is switched on. The timeframe can be defined between 15 minutes and 24 hours. During this period, the tumble dryer waits for the signal from the energy supplier. If no signal is sent during the defined period, the tumble dryer starts the drying programme.
Setting the time period If you have activated the SmartGrid function in Settings, touch the sensor control to set the time period when your tumble dryer should be started automatically (see “Settings ­ SmartGrid”). The procedure for setting this is the same as for setting the delay start time. Use the sensor controls to enter
the hour and confirm your entry with the OK sensor control. The hour will be saved and the minute number block will be highlighted. Use the sensor controls to enter the minutes and confirm your entry with the OK sensor control. Press the Start/Add laundry sensor control to start the drying programme with SmartStart.

5. Starting a programme

Starting the programme
Touch the flashing Start/Add laundry sensor control.
The Start/Add laundry sensor control will light up and Drying appears in the display. Notes If a delay start time has been selected, then this will count down in the time display. At the end of the delay start time or immediately after the programme has started the programme duration will appear in the time display. With a longer delay start time, the drum will rotate occasionally to untangle the laundry. This is not a fault. – The PerfectDry indicator will only
flash/light up for programmes with selectable drying levels (see also “Operating the tumble dryer”). – The tumble dryer measures the residual moisture of the laundry and calculates the required programme running time accordingly. If you barely place anything inside the tumble dryer or load it with dry laundry, this will be sensed by the empty drum detection feature. The automatic load recognition function will restrict the running time of the selected programme once it has started. The fabrics will be gently dried or aired. In this case, the PerfectDry indicator does not light up at the end of the programme.

The drying level reached for the selected drying level programme will light up in the display. You can view the selected drying level or time again: Touch the or sensor. – Before the programme finishes, the
laundry is cooled.
Energy savings After 10 minutes, the indicators dim. The Start/Add laundry sensor control flashes slowly. Touch the Start/Add laundry sensor
control to switch the indicators on again (this does not have any effect on a running programme). The drum lighting switches off once the programme has started.
Adding laundry You can add laundry items after the programme has started. Follow the description in “Changing
the programme sequence ­ Adding or removing laundry”.

To prevent laundry wearing out avoid overdrying it.

38

6. End of programme – unload the drum

End of programme
The programme is finished when Finish/ Anti-crease or Finished appears in the display. The Start/Add laundry control light goes out. The tumble dryer will switch off automatically 15 minutes after the end of the Anti-crease phase (with programmes without an Anti-crease phase it will switch off 15 minutes after the end of the programme).
Unloading the drum
Only open the door when the drying process has finished. Otherwise, the laundry will not be properly dried through and cooled down.
Pull the door open at the side with the orange marker.

Turn the programme selector to the position.
Remove the fluff from the 2 fluff filters in the door opening: see “Cleaning and care – Fluff filters”.
Shut the door with a gentle swing. Empty the condensed water con-
tainer. We recommend that you drain the condensed water externally through the drain hose when drying a full load using the Cottons and Cottons programmes. This will avoid having to empty the condensed water container during the programme.
Drum lighting
When you open the door of the tumble dryer, the drum is illuminated along with the area immediately in front of the dryer. This prevents you from accidentally leaving behind any items in the drum or in your laundry basket. The drum lighting will go out automatically to save energy.

Remove the laundry. Items left in the dryer could be damaged by overdrying when the dryer is used the next time. Always remove all items from the drum.

Extras

The drying programmes can be augmented with various extra options. Certain combinations of extra options are not possible.

DryCare 40
This option dries fabrics gently at very low temperature. It can be used for all fabrics that are free of wool and are washable at temperatures of 40 °C and above.

DryFresh
The Normal drying level can be used to freshen up clothing that is clean and dry without wetting it. The function is slightly less effective when used with fabrics made of synthetic fibres. Tip: To enhance the effect, you can also use the DryFresh fragrance flacon (optional accessory). and reduce the size of the load. DryFresh is not available for all drying levels.

For the best possible drying result: Reduce the load size for the corresponding programme to half the maximum load size specified in these operating instructions. Exceptions: you must reduce programmes with a maximum load size of 9 kg to 4 kg. DryCare 40 is not available for all drying levels.

47

Extras

PowerFresh
This option can be used to freshen up clothing that is clean and dry by using steam. The fabrics are moistened automatically. As the item is dried, the heat from the generated water vapour is transferred to the item strategically so that odour molecules in the fabric can be freed more easily. The function is slightly less effective when used with fabrics made of synthetic fibres. Reduce the size of the load to 1 kg. PowerFresh is not available for all drying levels. Tip: To enhance the effect even further, you can also use the DryFresh fragrance flacon (optional accessory).
Condensed water from the condensed water container is sprayed into the drum. The condensed water container must therefore be filled to at least the min mark.

See “Condensed water container ­ Filling the condensed water container”.
Buzzer
A buzzer sounds to let you know the programme has finished. The buzzer will always sound when there is a fault, even if it has been switched off.

Remove the condensed water container. 51

Condensed water container

Filling the condensed water container
When certain programmes are being used, condensed water generated during drying is recycled and sprayed into the drum via a spray nozzle.
The condensed water container must therefore be filled to at least the min mark. Otherwise, this could cause a fault. The min mark is on the front lefthand side of the container. If you have set the appliance up so that condensed water is drained away, the condensed water container will be empty.

1 spout, 2 rubber seal Pour the condensed water through
the rings on the spout 1.
The spray jet in the door opening can suffer a blockage. It should only be filled with clean water. The water must not contain any fragrance, detergent or other substances.

Check the fill level of the condensed water container.
Only fill it with commercially available condensed water (for ironing).
You should only use mains water in exceptional circumstances. If mains water is used frequently, limescale can build up on the spray jet in the door opening.

Cleaning the rubber seal If mains water is used frequently, limescale deposits can build up on the rubber seal 2. Use a damp cleaning cloth to care-
fully remove any limescale deposits from the rubber seal 2.

52

Fragrance flacon

FragranceDos
Fragrance flacons (optional accessories) can be used to give your laundry a pleasant scent. This dryer has 2 places for inserting fragrance flacons. This gives you a choice of how to use them. – You can use both positions if you
wish to change from one scent to another. You can close the fragrance flacon that you are not using. – Use both positions if you want a more intense scent of the same fragrance. Or if you wish to conveniently switch between a scent for normal laundry and DryFresh to freshen up your laundry. – Use one socket only if you only want to use the one fragrance.

Removing the protective seal from the fragrance flacon
Only hold the fragrance flacon as illustrated. Do not hold it at an angle or tip it, as the fragrance will leak out of it.
Take the fragrance flacon out of its packaging.
Do not attempt to open the fragrance flacon.

Risk of fire and damage to health
if fragrance flacons are used incorrectly. The leaked fragrance can damage your health if it comes into contact with your body. Leaked fragrance can cause fire. Before using a fragrance flacon, please read “Warnings and safety notes”, “Using the fragrance flacon (optional accessory)”.

Hold the fragrance flacon securely so that you do not open it by mistake.

Cleaning and care

Fluff filters
This tumble dryer has 2 fluff filters in the loading area of the door. Both fluff filters trap fluff produced during the drying process.
Clean the fluff filters after each drying programme. This prevents an extension of the programme running time. Also clean the fluff filters when the following message lights up in the display: Clean the plinth filter. See To clear the message, confirm with
OK.
Removing the fragrance flacon The intensity of the fragrance will be diminished if the fluff filters and the plinth filter are not cleaned. Remove the fragrance flacon. See
“Fragrance flacon”, “Removing/replacing the fragrance flacon”.

Removing visible fluff Tip: You can also use a vacuum cleaner so that you can remove the fluff without touching it. Open the door.
Pull the upper fluff filter forwards to remove it.

Remove the fluff (see arrows). 57

There is a build-up of fluff

Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are being worn and to some extent when they are being washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form. Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and the plinth filter and can be removed easily. See “Cleaning and care”.

66

Problem solving guide

The drying cycle duration is very long

Problem The drying process goes on too long or even switches off.*

Cause and remedy
The room where the tumble dryer is located is too warm. Ventilate the room thoroughly.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fluff can clog the filters. Clean the fluff filters and the plinth filter. Remove visible fluff from the heat exchanger.
The laundry is unevenly distributed or has rolled up. The drum is too full. Disentangle the laundry and remove a few items. Start a programme.
The bottom right grille is blocked. Move any objects, such as a laundry basket, away
from the dryer.
The laundry is too damp. Spin using a higher spin speed in the washing ma-
chine.
Metallic components, e.g. zips, have prevented the tumble dryer from registering the correct laundry moisture level. Open any zips next time. If the problem recurs, dry these items using the
Warm air timed drying programme.

Problem solving guide

Problem The drum lighting does not come on.
The spray jet for spraying condensed water into the drum is insufficient.

Cause and remedy
To save energy, the drum lighting goes out automatically after a set time and after the programme starts. Switch the dryer off and then on again. To switch the drum lighting on, open the door of
the tumble dryer.
The drum lighting is faulty. The drum lighting is designed to last a long time and should not normally need to be replaced. If you have tried everything but the drum lighting
still does not come on, contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
When certain programmes are being used, water is taken from the condensed water container and sprayed into the drum. The spray jet can sometimes stop working.
The fluff filter in the condensed water container is clogged. Clean the fluff filter in the condensed water con-
tainer. See “Cleaning the fluff filter in the condensed water container” in this section.
There are heavy limescale deposits on the spray jet in the door opening. Replace the spray jet. See “Replacing the con-
densed water spray jet” in this section. Only use condensed water. Do not use mains wa-
ter.
The frequent use of mains water leads to limescale deposits.

69

Problem solving guide
Replacing the plinth filter
The heat exchanger can clog up. Replace the plinth filter immediately if you see the following signs of wear before or after cleaning (optional accessory).
Poor fit

Deformations

Deformations indicate that the filter has become blocked and worn by continuous use.

The edges of the plinth filter do not sit properly and the plinth filter is out of shape. Fluff will blow into the heat exchanger unfiltered through edges that do not sit properly. This will, in time, cause a blockage in the heat exchanger.

70

Cracks, tears, indentations

Problem solving guide
White residues or residues of other colours

Fluff will blow into the heat exchanger through cracks and tears. This will, in time, cause a blockage in the heat exchanger.

These residues arise from laundry fibres and traces of detergent components. They can be found on the front and side edges of the plinth filter. In extreme cases, they can form stubborn crust. Residues are a sign that the plinth filter no is longer a snug fit at the sides, even if it appears to be perfect: fluff is getting in unfiltered at the edges. Reactivate the plinth filter. If these residues appear on the plinth filter again soon after cleaning, the plinth filter must be replaced.

71

Problem solving guide

Reactivating the plinth filter
You can reactivate one or more soiled plinth filters in a washing machine. You will then be able to use the plinth filter again.
Prior to reactivation, check that the plinth filter is in good order. Check the plinth filter following the instructions provided in “Problem solving guide ­ Replacing the plinth filter”. Replace the plinth filter if it has worn out. Wash the plinth filter(s) separately,
not with any laundry items. Do not add any detergent. Select a short wash programme with a maximum temperature of 40 °C and a maximum spin speed of 600 rpm. You can re-insert the plinth filter once the wash and spin cycles are complete.

Checking the heat exchanger
Risk of injury from sharp cooling
fins. You could cut yourself. Do not touch the cooling fins with your hands.
Look to see if fluff has accumulated. Remove any fluff you can see.
Damage due to incorrect clean-
ing of the heat exchanger. The tumble dryer will not dry if the cooling fins are damaged or bent. Clean using a vacuum cleaner with a suction brush attached. Only pass the vacuum cleaner brush over the heat exchanger cooling fins lightly, without applying any pressure.

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove fluff and residues.
72

Cleaning the fluff filter in the condensed water container
When certain programmes are being used, water is taken from the condensed water container and sprayed into the drum. The spray jet can sometimes stop working. The fluff filter in the condensed water container is clogged.

Problem solving guide

Remove the condensed water container.

Be careful not to tug on the hose to avoid detaching it.
Guide the end of the hose through the opening.
Hold it securely with one hand. Use your other hand to pull the fluff
filter off the hose. Rinse the fluff filter with a water jet
until all the fluff has been removed. Attach the clean fluff filter to the end
of the hose. Now feed the hose back into the con-
densed water container. Refit the spout in the condensed wa-
ter container ensuring that it is positioned correctly. Please refer to the image.

Reach under the side lug on the spout with your finger.
Pull out the spout.

Levelling the tumble dryer Ensure that no closeable door, sliding door or oppositely hinged door is installed that could hinder opening of the tumble dryer door in any way.

Risk of fire and explosion due to
damage to the tumble dryer. The refrigerant is flammable and explosive. Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer. Take measures to protect the tumble dryer against damage.

To ensure proper operation, the tumble dryer must stand perfectly level. The screw feet on the tumble dryer can be adjusted to compensate for unevenness in the floor.

If the tumble dryer is damaged, proceed as follows: – Avoid naked flames or anything
which creates a spark. – Disconnect the tumble dryer from the
electrical supply. – Air the room where the tumble dryer
is located. – Contact the Miele Customer Service
Department.
Downtime after installation
Damage to the tumble dryer by
switching it on too soon. This can damage the heat pump. After setting up the tumble dryer wait for at least one hour before switching it on.

Turn the screw feet by hand or with a flat open spanner.
78

INSTALLATION

Installation

Ventilation The cool air intake at the front of the tumble dryer must not be blocked or covered. This would hinder a sufficient intake of cool air for the heat exchanger.
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 tumble dryer. The hot air that is blown out from the heat exchanger warms the room air. Ensure sufficient ventilation of the room: e.g., open the window. The drying time will otherwise take longer (higher energy requirement).

The heat pump that is essential to the operation of this tumble dryer generates a great deal of heat inside its casing. There must be a reliable means of dissipating this heat. Otherwise loads could take longer to dry or the tumble dryer might sustain damage in the long term. Permanent room ventilation during every drying programme and the gap between the bottom of the tumble dryer and the floor are mandatory requirements at all times.
Before moving the tumble dryer again A small quantity of condensed water that remains in the area around the pump after the drying process can run out if the tumble dryer is tilted. Recommendation: start a programme for approx. 1 minute before transporting the dryer. Any remaining condensed water will then be fed into the condensed water container (which you will need to empty again) or out through the drain hose.

Electrical connection
The tumble dryer is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to a suitable earthed socket. The socket must be easily accessible after the tumble dryer has been installed. If the socket is not easily accessible, ensure that a suitable means of disconnection is provided on the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the tumble dryer to a multi-socket adapter or to an extension lead can overload the mains connection cable. For safety reasons, do not use an extension cable or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical system must comply with local and national safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). For safety reasons, we recommend using a type A residual current device (RCD) in the relevant electrical installation for connecting the tumble dryer. If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced with a specific mains connection cable of the same type (available from the Miele Customer Service Department). For safety reasons, such replacement may only be carried out by a qualified specialist or the Miele Customer Service Department.

These operating instructions and the data plate indicate the nominal power consumption and the appropriate fuse rating. Compare this information with the data of the on-site electrical connection. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system complies with the specifications of EN 50160 or an equivalent standard. The function and operation of the protective measures provided in the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described, for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001­2 ISO 45001.

1 Weight of dry laundry

2 Test programme in accordance with Regulation 392/2012/EU for energy labelling, measured in accordance with EN 61121.

All data was calculated using EN 61121 unless otherwise stated.

Consumption data can vary from the nominal values given above depending on the size of the load, types of textiles, residual moisture levels after spinning and fluctuations in the electricity supply, or when water hardness levels differ from specified values. The consumption data displayed by the tumble dryer may differ from the consumption data listed in the table. The differences are due to how data is calculated on the tumble dryer. For instance, when the programme running time is calculated, it is influenced by the residual moisture and composition of the laundry load, which ­ in turn ­ has an impact on the amount of energy required.

Remote control
The Remote control setting is only visible if the Miele@home setting is set up and activated.

SmartGrid
The SmartGrid setting is only visible if the Miele@home setting is set up and activated.

Once the Miele@mobile app has been installed on your mobile device, you can check the status of your tumble dryer from anywhere and start it remotely. You can also control it remotely via the MobileStart programme. You can switch off the Remote control setting if you do not want to operate the tumble dryer with your mobile device. If Remote control is not switched on, the app can cause the programme to be cancelled. Use the “Delay start” button to set a time at which you wish to start the tumble dryer and start the delay start (see “Delay start/SmartStart”).
