Warning and Safety instructions
This tumble dryer is only intended for drying fabrics which have been washed
in a water solution, and marked on the manufacturer’s care label as being
suitable for tumble drying. “Dry cleaning kits” for freshening up garments in
a tumble dryer are increasingly available on the market. If using, do so at
your own risk, and follow the instructions provided on the packaging. Any
other applications may be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for damage
resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation. The tumble dryer is not
intended for outdoor use. The tumble dryer must not be used in a non-
stationary location (e.g. on a ship). Do not install the tumble dryer in a
room where there is a risk of frost. At temperatures around freezing point,
the tumble dryer may not be able to operate properly. A room temperature
between 2 °C and 40 °C is permitted for electrically heated and gasheated
tumble dryers. A room temperature between 10 °C and 40 °C is permitted for
tumble dryers with heat pumps. If the machine is used in a commercial
environment it may only be operated by instructed/trained personnel. If the
machine is used in a publicly accessible area, the supervisor must ensure that
it can be operated safely without risk of danger. This appliance can only be
used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience or knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have
been shown how to use it in a safe way and understand and recognise the
consequences of incorrect operation. Children under 8 years of age must be
kept away from the tumble dryer unless they are constantly supervised.
Children 8 years and older may only use the tumble dryer unsupervised if they
have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the
consequences of incorrect operation. Children must not be allowed to clean or
maintain the tumble dryer unsupervised. Please supervise children in the
vicinity of the tumble dryer and do not let them play with it. This tumble
dryer may also be operated in public areas. Any uses other than those listed
above are prohibited. The manufacturer accepts no liability in such cases.
Foreseeable misuse Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless
authorised to do so by Miele. In the case of parts that have been sealed by
Miele, the seals must not be broken. If these seals need to be broken in order
to carry out a repair or conversion, they must be replaced following the
inspection. Do not lean on the tumble-dryer door. Otherwise, the tumble dryer
may tip over, causing injury to yourself or others. Do not use a pressure
washer or water jet to clean the tumble dryer. The tumble dryer must be
serviced in a timely and professional manner. Otherwise, there is a potential
risk of loss in performance, faults and fire. Benzine, petrol, paraffin, or
any easily flammable liquid must not be stored or used near the machine.
Danger of explosion.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not expose the dryer to air which is contaminated with vapour of chlorine,
fluorine or other solvents. Danger of fire. To prevent the risk of fire, the
following items must not be dried in this tumble dryer: – Items which have not
been washed. – Items which have not been thoroughly cleaned and are still
soiled with grease, oil or
other deposits (such as kitchen linens or cosmetics cloths with cooking oils,
grease, 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. – Items (e.g. mops and
floor cloths) that 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. – Items which
have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or
similar substances. Wash heavily soiled items thoroughly by increasing the
amount of detergent and selecting a high washing temperature. If in doubt,
wash the items several times. Danger of squashing or cutting fingers etc.
around the drum door hinges and the fluff filter cover. Use the appropriate
handles and release catches only. Always make sure that the drum is stationary
before reaching in to remove laundry. Do not touch the drum whilst it is still
rotating. 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 is complete. Ensure that you always
wait until the end of the programme before removing the laundry.
Technical safety This tumble dryer must only be set up and commissioned by a
Miele Service technician or authorised Miele Service Dealer. Before
installation check the tumble dryer for any obvious damage. A damaged tumble
dryer must not be installed and/or used. Do not connect the tumble dryer to
the power supply by an extension lead (fire hazard due to overheating). Do not
operate the tumble dryer in a room where cleaning machines operate with
solvents containing CFCs. During combustion, any vapours that are emitted will
break down into hydrochloric acid, leading to consequential damage affecting
laundry and the machine. Air exchange must not take place between rooms if
machines are set up in separate rooms. Fire hazard due to controllable socket.
This tumble dryer must not be connected to a controllable socket (e.g. a
timer). There is a risk of the laundry self-igniting if the tumble dryer’s
cooling phase is interrupted. 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 on-site wiring
system tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the
consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock). The
tumble dryer is only electrically disconnected from the power supply, if
6
Warning and Safety instructions
– the plug has been disconnected from the socket. – it is switched off at the
main switch, or the mains electrical fuse is disconnected (on
site). The plug must be easily accessible so that the tumble dryer can be
disconnected from the power supply at any time. The operator must be able to
check from any access point that the plug is still removed. If the appliance
is hard wired, adequate provision must be made on site to switch off all poles
to disconnect the tumble dryer from the power supply. If the mains connection
cable is faulty it must always be replaced by a Miele authorised technician to
protect the user from danger. Tumble dryers with damage to the control panel
or wire insulation must not be used until they have been repaired.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for
which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a
Miele authorised technician, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be
covered by the warranty. Faulty components may only be replaced by genuine
Miele spare parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used. Only operate the tumble dryer
when all removable outer panels are in place so that it is impossible to touch
an electrical component or moving part. During the drying process, the door
glass and the frame around the drum door will get hot. Please be aware that
the laundry may also be hot if it is removed from the tumble dryer before the
end of the drying programme. In the event of a fault and for cleaning and
maintenance purposes, the tumble dryer must be disconnected from the power
supply. The tumble dryer is only disconnected from the power supply, if: – It
is switched off at the wall socket or the plug is withdrawn. – The mains fuse
is disconnected. – The mains fuses have been completely removed. If the heater
element malfunctions, accessible parts can get very hot. Only allow clean,
fresh air to be fed into the tumble dryer. Air entering the machine must not
contain vapours with chlorine, fluorine or other solvents. Electrically heated
and gas-heated tumble dryers may only be operated when the vent ducting has
been installed and the room is sufficiently ventilated. Vent ducting is not
required for tumble dryers with heat pump. The vent ducting must never be
installed in any of the following flues or shafts: – Chimneys or smokestacks
that are in use. – Shafts that are used to ventilate installation rooms with
fireplaces. – Flues that are used by third parties. Smoke or exhaust gas that
is fed back into the flue or shaft may be toxic. Regularly check all
components in the vent ducting (e.g. wall pipe, external grille, bends,
elbows, etc.) to make sure air can move through them and to ensure that they
are working properly. Clean components when necessary. Fluff deposits in the
vent ducting system will prevent the air from being extracted properly and, as
a result, will stop the tumble dryer from working properly.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
If existing vent ducting is due to be used, it must be checked before being
connected to the tumble dryer. Low pressure must not occur in the vent
ducting. There is a risk of suffocation and poisoning due to exhaust gases
being sucked back if gas-powered flow heaters, gas-powered room heaters, coal-
burning stoves with a flue connection, etc., are installed in the same room,
in the same flat or in neighbouring rooms and the negative pressure is 4 Pa or
more. The following measures for suitable room ventilation (examples) can help
to prevent negative pressure in the installation area: – Install suitably
sized vents that cannot be closed in the exterior walls. Please always seek
approval from your building regulations inspector to confirm that the
appliance can be operated without risk and that negative pressure of over 4 Pa
can be prevented. If multiple tumble dryers are to be connected to one vent
ducting, a non-return flap must be installed directly on the duct for each
tumble dryer. If this requirement is not observed, the tumble dryers may be
damaged and their electrical safety could be affected. Ensure that no
closeable door, sliding door or an oppositely hinged door is installed that
would hinder the drum door being opened in any way.
Gas-heated tumble dryers In the event of a fault or when carrying out cleaning
and maintenance, the on-site manual gas shut-off valve and the shut-off device
on the gas meter must be closed. Before completing commissioning, maintenance,
conversion and repair work, all gas-conducting components from the manual
shut-off valve to the burner jet must be checked for leaks. Particular
attention must be paid to the measurement connections on the gas valve and on
the burner. Checks must be performed when the burner is both switched on and
switched off. Carry out an annual visual inspection of the gas lines and gas
appliances in your property. This inspection must comply with applicable
national regulations.
Take these safety precautions if you smell gas – Extinguish all flames
immediately. – Close the on-site gas shut-off device, the gas shut-off device
on the gas meter or the
main gas shut-off device immediately. – Open all windows and doors
immediately. – Do not light any naked flames (e.g. matches or lighters). – Do
not smoke. – If there is the smell of gas in a room, never enter the room with
a naked flame. – Do not carry out any actions that will create electrical
sparks (such as pulling out elec-
trical plugs or pressing electrical switches or bells). – If you cannot find
the cause of the gas smell and all gas valves have been shut off, please
call the gas supply company immediately. If other persons are being shown how
to operate the appliance, they must be given and/ or made aware of these
important safety precautions.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use Do not damage, remove or bypass the safety features and control
elements of the tumble dryer. Always close the drum door after each drying
cycle. This will prevent: – Children climbing into the tumble dryer or hiding
things in it. – Pets or other small animals climbing into the tumble dryer.
Keep the room where the tumble dryer is located free from dust and fluff. If
the air that is taken into the machine contains dirt particles, this can cause
blockages. A fault may then occur and there is a risk of fire. Never operate
the tumble dryer without the fluff filter or with a damaged fluff filter. This
could lead to malfunctions. Fluff can clog the air channels, heating elements
and vent ducting, which could result in a fire. In this case, stop the tumble
dryer immediately and replace the damaged fluff filter. The fluff filter must
be cleaned on a regular basis. To ensure problem-free operation of the tumble
dryer: – Clean the surface of the fluff filter after each drying cycle. – In
addition, the fluff filter and the air passages must be cleaned when prompted
by the
display. Remove all items from the pockets of the laundry to be dried (e.g.
lighters, matches, keys). The programme ends when the cooling phase starts.
Many programmes are followed by the cooling phase to ensure that the items of
laundry are kept at a temperature that will not cause them damage (for
instance to prevent the risk of the laundry self-igniting). Always remove all
items of laundry from the tumble dryer immediately after the cooling phase.
Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele. If other
parts are used, warranty, performance and product liability claims will be
invalidated.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these
Warning and Safety instructions.

Drying
Washing before drying Preparing the laundry
Removing foreign objects
1. Notes on correct laundry care
Heavily soiled laundry must be washed particularly thoroughly. Use sufficient
detergent and select a high wash temperature. If in doubt, wash the items
several times.
The tumble dryer must not be used for drying items of laundry which have been
cleaned using industrial chemicals.
New and coloured items must be washed thoroughly and separately. Do not dry
new and coloured items with light coloured garments. There is the risk of
colours running and discolouring other garments or even plastic components in
the tumble dryer. Dark coloured fluff can also settle on light coloured
garments and vice versa.
Not all fabrics are suitable for drying in a tumble dryer. Please observe the
symbols on the fabric care label.
Observe the instructions on the laundry care label: – Dry at normal
temperature – Dry at low temperature – Do not tumble dry Tip: For even drying
results and to avoid damaging fabrics, sort the laundry by fibre and weave.
Fire hazard due to drying unsuitable fabrics. Machine drying unsuitable
textiles poses a fire hazard. Only tumble dry items that have a care label
stating that they are suitable for tumble drying.
The following fabrics must not be dried in a tumble dryer: – Fabrics which
contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber-like materials. – Fabrics treated with inflammable cleaning agents. –
Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varnish remover or similar substances. – Items soiled with oil, grease and
similar residues, e.g. kitchen linen
and linen used in beauty clinics. – Items such as mop heads and floor cloths
containing residual wax or
chemicals. – Damaged items that contain fillings, e.g. pillows and jackets. –
Fabrics contaminated by greases and oils that have not been ad-
equately washed. Use a heavy-duty detergent for very heavily soiled items
(e.g. workwear). Please seek advice from the detergent and cleaning agent
manufacturer in this regard. Before drying, ensure that there are no foreign
objects in the laundry.
20
Drying
Damage due to foreign objects which were not removed from the laundry. Foreign
objects in the laundry can melt, burn or explode. Ensure that any foreign
objects (e.g. detergent dispensing aids, lighters, etc.) have been removed
from the laundry. Check seams and stitching to ensure that the items of
laundry are intact. This way you will avoid the danger of fillings coming out
and causing a fire. Sew in or remove underwiring from bras. Risk of fire due
to incorrect use and operation. The laundry can burn and destroy the tumble
dryer and the surroundings. See the section on “Warnings and safety notes” for
further information.
21
Drying
Loading the laundry
2. Loading the tumble dryer
Damage to fabrics caused by incorrect laundry care. Incorrect laundry care can
damage fabrics during tumble drying. Before loading the dryer, read “1. Notes
on correct laundry care”.
Open the door.
Load the washed laundry into the tumble dryer.
Do not overload the drum. Overloading the drum will cause unnecessary wear and
tear to the laundry and affect the drying results. This can also increase the
creasing in the laundry.
Closing the door
Damage caused by laundry getting trapped. Laundry can be damaged by getting trapped when closing the door. When closing the door, make sure that laundry does not get trapped in the door opening.
Shut the door gently.

Starting a programme Programme running time/Time left estimation
Starting a programme
Touch the flashing Start/Stop sensor control. The Start/Stop sensor control
will light up. Programme sequence – If Delay start has been selected, the
Delay start time will start to
count down first. – The programme starts.
The programme running time depends on the quantity of laundry, the type of
fabric and the residual moisture in the laundry. The displayed programme
running time for drying level programmes can therefore vary or “jump”. The
tumble dryer’s electronic module adapts during the ongoing drying programme.
The displayed programme running time becomes more and more accurate.
When using the programmes for the first time, the displayed time sometimes
deviates significantly from the real time left. The difference between the
estimated and achieved time becomes smaller if the corresponding programme is
run more often. If different load sizes are dried in one programme, the time
left display can only show an approximate time.
Laundry items and fabrics can wear out unnecessarily. Avoid overdrying the laundry.
Energy saving
After a programmed time, the indicators dim. The Start/Stop sensor control
flashes slowly. Touch the Start/Stop sensor control to switch the indicators
back
on. Energy saving for the indicators will not affect a running programme.
– The laundry is cooled before the end of the programme in line with the
setting in the programmable function.

5. Unloading laundry from the tumble dryer
The tumble dryer can be configured so that a buzzer sounds at the end of the
programme.
At the end of the programme ( is indicated on the time display), the laundry
has cooled down and can be removed. If Anti-crease has been selected, the drum
keeps rotating at intervals. This reduces creasing if the laundry cannot be
removed straight away. The tumble dryer will switch off automatically after
the programmed time after the end of a programme.
Open the door.
Remove all of the laundry from the drum.
Damage caused by overdrying. Laundry left in the dryer can be damaged by
overdrying. Always remove all items from the drum once drying has finished.
Care notes
Close the door. Switch the tumble dryer off.
This tumble dryer requires regular maintenance, particularly if it is used on
a continuous basis. Please see “Cleaning and care” for details.

Installation
Installation requirements Risk of injury or damage to property due to improper
installation. Incorrect installation of the tumble dryer can lead to personal
injury or damage to property. The tumble dryer must only be installed and
commissioned by Miele Customer Service Department or an authorised dealer. The
tumble dryer must be installed in accordance with all relevant regulations and
standards. The dryer must only be operated in a room that has sufficient
ventilation and which is frost-free. The tumble dryer must not be installed
behind a closeable door or a sliding door. The maximum opening angle of the
tumble dryer door must not be limited by objects or doors. It must be possible
to fully open the tumble dryer door at any time. General operating conditions
This dryer is intended only for use in a commercial environment and must only
be operated indoors. Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is
a risk of frost. Depending on the nature of the installation site, sound
emissions and vibrations may occur. Tip: Have the installation site inspected
and seek the advice of a professional in instances where increased noise may
cause a nuisance. Transporting the tumble dryer Risk of injury caused by the
tumble dryer tipping over. When transporting the tumble dryer, there is the
risk of the appliance tipping over. The tumble dryer must only be transported
with a transport pallet. Suitable transport aids must always be used during
transportation. Transport the tumble dryer to the installation site using a
suitable pallet truck. Remove the transport packaging.
Unscrew Torx screws (Torx T 20 and T 30) from the wooden pallet and remove the
wooden battens.
Remove the wooden battens.
29
Installation
Lift the tumble dryer with the pallet truck. Fit the 4 adjustable feet
supplied.
Installing the tumble dryer
Place the tumble dryer on a perfectly level, secure and horizontal surface
that is able to withstand the specified floor load.
The floor load created by the tumble dryer is concentrated and transferred to
the installation surface via the machine feet. A base is not required.
However, an uneven floor surface must be compensated for.
PDR 516 SL
x
1800 mm
y

To ensure a sufficient flow of air to the machine and to facilitate any future maintenance work, a maintenance corridor with a width of at least 500 mm must be set up behind the machine and must be accessible at all times. The distance between the machine and any walls must not fall below the specified minimum values.
30
Installation
The tumble dryer must be aligned and set up on a level surface. Adjust the
tumble dryer adjustable feet until the machine is level. After the machine has
been aligned, screw the nuts tightly to the base plate using a screwdriver.
Tip: Use a spirit level to ensure correct alignment. Gas-heated tumble dryers
or tumble dryers that are installed on a plinth or offshore must
be fastened to the floor with tensioning strips following installation. Danger
of gas leakage from gas-heated tumble dryers due to lack of floor fastening.
Accidental displacement of a gas-heated tumble dryer can damage the gas line
and cause gas to leak. After installation, always secure gas-heated tumble
dryers to the floor using suitable fastening material. Electrical connection
The electrical connection must be established by a qualified electrician. The
electrical connection may only be made to an electrical system provided in
accordance with all appropriate local and national legislation, regulations
and guidelines. Please also observe the regulations set out by your insurance
provider and energy supplier, accident prevention regulations, as well as
recognised codes of practice. Reliable and safe operation of this tumble dryer
is only ensured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply. The
required supply voltage, power rating and fuse rating can be found on the data
plate on the tumble dryer. Ensure that the supply voltage matches the voltage
quoted on the data plate before establishing the electrical connection to the
tumble dryer. Connection to a supply voltage other than the one quoted on the
data plate can damage the tumble dryer if the voltage is too high. If more
than one voltage is specified on the data plate, the tumble dryer can be
converted for connection to the relevant input voltage. This conversion must
be performed by the Miele Customer Service Department or by an authorised
dealer. During the conversion, the wiring instructions given on the wiring
diagram must be followed. Tip: We recommend connecting the tumble dryer to the
power supply via a plug and socket so that it is easier to conduct electrical
safety checks (e.g. during maintenance or repair work).
31
Installation
It is recommended the tumble dryer is connected with a suitable plug and
socket in accordance with IEC 60309-1, however if the installation requires a
hard-wired connection, an allpole means of isolation must be provided on site.
Switches with a minimum contact gap greater than 3 mm are suitable
disconnectors. These include circuit breakers (MCB), fuses and contactors (VDE
0660) (IEC/EN 60947) If the mains supply cannot be permanently disconnected,
the isolation device (including plug and socket) must be safeguarded against
being switched on either unintentionally or without authorisation. The tumble
dryer must not be connected to devices such as timers which would switch it
off automatically. If it is necessary to install a residual current device
(RCD) in accordance with local regulations, a residual current device type B
(sensitive to universal current) must be used.
Loud noises and risk of damage due to incorrect phase connection on heat-pump
dryers. An incorrect phase position causes a lot of noise in tumble dryers
with heat pumps and can cause damage to the compressor. When connecting a
heat-pump dryer to the power connection, ensure the correct phase position
according to the wiring diagram.
32
Installation
Installation of electrically heated and gas-heated variants
Air intake/exhaust air The tumble dryer may only be operated when the ducting
has been connected properly and the room is sufficiently ventilated. Silencer
(Miele accessory available to order) The use of silencers is not permitted in
exhaust ducting used by gas-heated washing machines or ironers. The tightness
of the silencer is classified as category B in accordance with EN 13180. With
gas-heated tumble dryers, Building regulations approval must be obtained for
the overall ducting system. You are not permitted to install multiple tumble
dryers to a single silencer. If the tumble dryer is connected to a shared
extraction system, the silencer must be installed directly onto the tumble
dryer’s exhaust connection point. The non-return flap must then be installed
downstream of the silencer in the direction of flow. Calculating the total
length and diameter of a supply-air or exhaust pipe The length of the required
pipeline and the number and shape of the elbows are determined by the
structural conditions. In order to avoid impairing the airflow performance,
the pipeline should be as short as possible and if feasible should not have
any sharp bends. In addition, a decision must be made as to whether flexible
piping or steel piping should be installed with a round or square cross-
section. If the tumble dryer is connected to a central air supply, the total
pipe length is calculated from the sum of all exhaust and supply pipes. The
maximum supply pipe length should not exceed half of the total pipe length.
The exhaust ducting for gas-heated appliances must not be made from flammable
materials. Otherwise there is a risk of fire. Use only non-flammable materials
for the exhaust ducting. In upward exhaust ducting systems, a condensate drain
must be fitted at the lowest point. The condensate must be drained via a water
collection tray or a floor drain positioned in an appropriate location. If air
is being directed from multiple appliances into a combined ducting system
(exceptional circumstances), a non-return device (non-return flap) must be
installed in the ducting for each appliance to prevent backflow. To make
subsequent cleaning of the pipes easier, inspection hatches should be fitted
to elbows wherever possible. The on-site exhaust ducting and outlet to the
outdoors must be regularly checked for lint deposits and cleaned if necessary.

34
Installation
With complex ducting with many bends and additional components, or when
several different appliances are connected to a shared duct, it is recommended
that a detailed pipework calculation is carried out by a qualified specialist.
The vent ducting must not be channeled into a chimney or flue already in use
for any gas, coal or oil-burning installation. The warm and moist exhaust air
is to be conducted to the outside or through suitable ventilation ducting
along the shortest path possible. The vent ducting must be laid so that air
flow is not hindered. To achieve this, use as few bends as possible along with
short pipelines and well-made connections and transitions checked for air-
tightness. No filters or grilles may be fitted in the vent ducting. The end of
the vent ducting leading outside must be protected against the elements, e.g.
with a downward-facing 90° elbow.
During tumble dryer operation, the room must be adequately ventilated.
Room ventilation opening for air intake from the setup room
The minimum dimension of the ventilation opening depends on the cross-section
of the extraction ducting. If the tumble dryer is connected to a central air
supply, additional ventilation openings are normally not needed. Additional
ventilation for comfort air/cooling of the room may be required depending on
the installation.

Gas connection (only for gas-heated variants)
The gas connection may only be carried out by a registered installation
technician in accordance with the applicable national regulations. The use of
a gas socket for the supply hose is not permitted as the flow rate is too low
for the specified heater rating.
The gas heating is configured at the factory in line with the gas specifications on the sticker on the rear of the appliance. If the gas type needs to be changed, please request the appropriate conversion kit from the Miele Customer Service Department. Information is required on the appliance type, serial number, gas family, gas group, gas connection pressure and country of installation. This gas conversion may only be carried out by a registered specialist.
35
Installation
Gas safety precautions This machine must be installed in accordance with local
and national building and safety regulations by a suitably qualified engineer.
In the U.K. this must be done for gas-heated machines by a Gas Safe registered
engineer. Adequate ventilation must be present in the room in which the
machine is operated. It is essential to read these instructions before
installing and operating the machine.
In the UK: – Gas Emergency Contact Centre (Tel: 0 800 111 999) – For any gas
work in the UK always use a Gas Safe registered engineer.
In other countries please follow relevant country specific procedures on gas.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure they are made available to
new users. They must be made aware of these Warning and Safety instructions.
All personnel working with this machine must be fully trained in all aspects
of its use and safety. Take these safety precautions if you smell gas –
Extinguish all flames immediately. – Close the on-site gas shut-off device,
the gas shut-off device on the gas meter or the
main gas shut-off device immediately. – Open all windows and doors
immediately. – Do not light any naked flames (e.g. matches or lighters). – Do
not smoke. – If there is the smell of gas in a room, never enter the room with
a naked flame. – Do not carry out any actions that will create electrical
sparks (such as pulling out elec-
trical plugs or pressing electrical switches or bells). – If you cannot find
the cause of the gas smell and all gas valves have been shut off, please
call the gas supply company immediately. If other persons are being shown how
to operate the appliance, they must be given and/ or made aware of these
important safety precautions. During installation, the technical regulations
for gas installations as well as national and regional building regulations,
fire regulations and specifications from the relevant gas supply companies
must be adhered to. When planning a gas-heated system, contact the relevant
gas supply company and a building regulations inspector.
36
Installation
Installation site
Gas-heated tumble dryers must not be operated in a room where cleaning
machines operate with solvents containing perchloroethylene or CFCs. During
combustion, any vapours that are emitted will break down into hydrochloric
acid, leading to consequential damage affecting laundry and the appliance. Air
exchange must not take place if appliances are set up in separate rooms. Rooms
with fuel-burning installations must be adequately aerated and ventilated. Any
gasheated appliance must be considered to be a fuel-burning installation
(regardless of its gas flow rate). If no low pressure occurs when a full fire
is burning in all fuel-burning installations, this means that the room
ventilation is working properly, even if the exhaust gases from the
installations are being extracted mechanically. This ensures that the gas is
being combusted correctly and that the exhaust gases are being evacuated
completely. It must not be possible to seal off aeration and ventilation
openings.
Before completing commissioning, maintenance, conversion and repair work, all
gasconducting components from the manual shut-off valve to the burner jet
must be checked for leaks. Particular attention must be paid to the measuring
stubs on the gas valve. Checks must be performed when the burner is both
switched on and switched off.
Installing thermal shut-off equipment on site is recommended. If gas-heated appliances are accessible to anyone, it is also necessary to check whether a gas flow monitor needs to be used.

Exhaust gas evacuation ducts
Gas-heated Miele tumble dryers are type B22 gas fuel-burning installations
without flow safeguarding equipment, and with a fan behind the heater. – The
mixtures of exhaust gas and air that are emitted by gas-heated tumble dryers
must be evacuated through a suitable chimney and out into the atmosphere via
the roof. – Vent ducts for exhaust air and exhaust gas must be kept as short
as possible. The ducts must rise vertically up to the flue. – Only materials
that are resistant to heat and sooting may be used. – A condensate drain must
be placed at the lowest point of the vent ducting. The condensate must be
drained via a water collection tray or a floor drain positioned in an
appropriate location. No filters or grilles may be fitted in the pipeline. The
vent ducting for exhaust air and exhaust gas must be installed leak-tight. The
latest guidelines for approving exhaust gas systems containing low-temperature
exhaust gases must be observed.
Exceptions 1. Where it is not possible for evacuation to take place through a
single duct, appropriate
measures must be put in place to ensure that the exhaust gas/air mixture from
the machine is not able to enter the room in which the appliance is located
via the exhaust duct for other appliances (e.g. through the use of baffles and
merged lines with a shape that is favourable for the flow). When using a shape
that is favourable for the flow, it is important to ensure that high pressure
cannot arise at the side that is not being operated. Machines fitted with fans
must not be connected to the same vent flue as those without fans. 2. When
evacuating the exhaust gas/air mixture through the exterior wall, no dangers
or unreasonable nuisance may arise. 3. With a combined line, the exhaust air
vent ducts for the individual machines must be installed horizontally in the
combined line, in a way that is favourable for the flow. The cross-section of
the vent flue must not be smaller than the cross-section of the combined line.
Combined lines must be kept as short as possible and must rise vertically up
to the vent flue. A condensate drain is required at the lowest point. All
exceptional cases, and particularly those where a combined line is being
installed, require special permission from the relevant building regulations
inspector supervisor’s office.

Installation
Installation of variants with heat pumps
General operating conditions This heat-pump dryer is intended only for use in
a commercial environment and must only be operated indoors. Ambient
temperature for optimum heat-pump operation: +10 °C to +40 °C The ambient
temperature for the heat-pump dryer must be at least 10 °C. At lower ambient
temperatures, there is a risk of ice forming on the lower heat exchanger. This
can also result in unexpected condensate formation. Depending on the nature of
the installation site, sound emissions and vibrations may occur. Tip: Have the
installation site inspected and seek the advice of a professional in instances
where increased noise may cause a nuisance. Transport The tumble dryer and the
heat pump must not be transported without transport pallets. Suitable
transport aids must always be used during transportation. Tilting the heat
pump by more than 30° should be avoided if at all possible. After the heat
pump has been transported, it should be left to stand for approximately one
hour before commissioning. If the heat pump is subjected to especially strong
vibrations or is tilted by more than 30°, it should be left to stand for up to
24 hours. At the next installation site, the tumble dryer and the heat pump
must be lifted off the transport pallet using suitable lifting gear. If the
heat-pump unit is tilted up to a maximum of 30° during transportation, it must
be left to stand for at least one hour after it has been installed before the
heat-pump dryer can be operated. If the heat-pump unit was tilted by an angle
exceeding 30° or if it was subjected to strong vibrations, the machine must be
left to stand for 24 hours before commissioning. After transportation and
installation, downtime of at least one hour is required before connecting the
tumble dryer to the electricity supply. Insufficient downtime before
commissioning can damage the heat pump.
Air intake vent Air intake for the condenser is via an air intake vent at the
front of the dryer. Air is taken from the room in which the dryer is
installed. A fluff filter is located in the air intake vent in the dryer. This
must be regularly cleaned by hand. The air intake vent must be kept clear. It
must not be covered.
Air outlet vent Because the heat-pump dryer operates with a closed air
circuit, separate exhaust ducting is not required.
43
Installation
The warm air expelled from the machine as a result of cooling down the heat-
exchanger warms the room air. It is essential to ensure the room has adequate
ventilation, e.g. by providing ventilation openings that cannot be closed
whilst the machine is in use. Insufficient ventilation in the room increases
the time required for drying, which in turn will increase the amount of energy
required for the drying process.
The ventilation openings must, on no account, be closed or blocked by objects.
Condensate drainage point The heat pump in this tumble dryer operates
according to the principle of condensation. A separate, vented floor drain
must be provided at the installation site for condensate produced during the
drying process. The condensate drainage point is located at the back of the
heat-pump dryer. Condensate can be fed via a downwards pointing pipe to the
floor drain. It must be ensured that condensate cannot flow back into the
dryer.
Risk of electric shock and injury due to using the tumble dryer without the
complete casing. If the casing is dismantled, it is possible to come into
contact with live or rotating machine parts. Once the tumble dryer has been
installed, replace all the casing parts that were removed.

router within the specified time. The network connection via WPS is being
established. The appliance is now successfully connected.
Establishing a temporary network connection via soft AP
The network connection via soft AP is only possible if the tumble dryer is not
already connected to a network.
On the supervisor level, select using the or arrow buttons. Then select the
internal communication module using the or arrow buttons. Confirm with the /
sensor control. Restart the tumble dryer by turning the rotary control to the
position. Switch the appliance on again by turning the rotary control from the
position to any
other position. Press and hold the sensor control until appears briefly on the
display. A timer will then start. The tumble dryer now opens the soft AP for
10 minutes. Establish the connection with the Device Connector in Miele MOVE.
Once a connection is established, dots flash in the word. Then continue with
the Device Connector in Miele MOVE.
