Installation and planning notes

Installation requirements
The tumble dryer should only be connected to a power supply provided in accordance with all appropriate local and national legislation and regulations.
In addition, all regulations issued by the appropriate utilities as well as standards relating to occupational safety and all applicable valid regulations and technical standards must be observed.

General operating conditions
Ambient temperature in installation room: +2 °C to +35 °C.

Electrical connection
Depending on the model, the appliance is delivered with a supply lead with/without a plug.
The appliance may only be connected to an electrical system that conforms to the national and local codes and regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). The installation must be performed by a qualified electrician.
The data plate indicates the nominal power consumption and the appropriate fuse rating. Compare the specifications on the data plate with those of the electrical power supply. It is always recommended to connect the appliance via a plug and socket so that electrical safety checks, e.g. during repair or service work, can be carried out easily.
The tumble dryer can either be hard-wired or connected using a plug and socket connection in accordance with IEC 60309-1. If the appliance is hard-wired, a dual circuit breaker must be provided on-site. When switched off there must be an all-pole contact gap of at least 3 mm in the isolator switch (including circuit breakers, fuses, and contactors according to IEC/EN 60947).
The plug connector or isolator switch should be easily accessible at all times. If the tumble dryer is disconnected from the electricity supply, the isolator must be lockable or the point of disconnection must be monitored at all times.
The tumble dryer should never be connected by an extension cable, e.g. power strips, to avoid the risk of fire.
New connections, modifications to the system, or servicing of the earthing conductor, including determining the correct fuse amperage, must be carried out by a qualified electrician, as they are familiar with the pertinent regulations and the specific requirements of the electric utility company.
If converting the tumble dryer to an alternative voltage, observe the instructions in the wiring diagram. The conversion must be performed by the Miele Customer Service department or by an authorized Miele dealer. The heater rating must also be adapted.
The tumble dryer must not be connected to devices such as timers which would switch it off automatically.
References to cable cross-sections in the technical data refer only to the required mains cable. Please consult relevant local and national regulations when calculating any other wire gauges.

Vent connection
Hot moist exhaust air should be vented to the atmosphere along the shortest possible route or connected to a suitable vent system. Depending on the duct path, the moist exhaust air can condense on the duct walls to a greater or lesser extent. For this reason, it is recommended to lay ducting with a downwards slope to the air exit.
If ducting slopes upwards, a condensate trap either with a drip tray or connection to a suitable on-site floor drain must be fitted in the system at the lowest point.

Condensate must not flow back into the appliance.

It is permissible to vent exhaust air via an external wall. In this case, measures must be taken to minimize the risk and annoyance to neighboring buildings.
The end of exhaust air ducting leading into the open should be protected against the elements, e.g. using a suitable hood or with a 90° bend.
The cross-sectional area of the ducting must not be reduced or obstructed by built-in parts. Filters and louvers must not be fitted in the ducting.
Congestion in the line may lead to a drop in appliance performance or to appliances being switched off to guarantee safety.

Proper functioning of the tumble dryer cannot be guaranteed if the max. permissible pressure loss is exceeded in the on-site vent ducting system.

When connecting several tumble dryers to a common duct, the cross-sectional area of the duct must be increased accordingly. Additionally, in such a case every tumble dryer must have its own non-return valve to prevent dryers from affecting others in the system. This requires the provision of on-site additional parts.
In the event that exhaust air ducts from several tumble dryers are merged into a common duct, a non-return device should be installed in each separate line to prevent backflow.
With complex ducting with many bends and additional components, or with the connection of several different appliances to a common duct, it is recommended that a detailed calculation is carried out by a suitable specialist.

Air intake
The air supply for the tumble dryer is taken directly from the installation site. During operation, adequate ventilation of the installation site should be guaranteed. Depending on the appliance version, it is necessary to ensure an intake of fresh air to compensate for the volume of exhaust air extracted in order to avoid the creation of a vacuum.
It should not be possible to close or otherwise obstruct air intake grilles or alternative measures should be implemented to ensure that an adequate supply of fresh air is available at all times during tumble dryer operation.

Equipotential bonding
If necessary, equipotential bonding with good galvanic contact must be guaranteed in compliance with all applicable local and national installation specifications.
Connection material for equipotential bonding must be provided on-site or using a kit available from the Miele Customer service department .
Peak load/energy management
The appliance can be connected to a peak-load or energy management system using an optional kit.
When the peak-load function is activated, the heating is deactivated. A message appears in the display to inform you of this.
Payment system
The tumble dryer can be fitted with a single-machine payment system as an optional accessory using an optional kit (XCI-Box / XCI-AD). The programming required for connecting a payment system can be carried out during the initial commissioning process. After initial commissioning, changes may only be carried out by your Miele dealer
or the Miele Customer Service Department.

Interface
The appliance can be fitted with a KXM 3200 WL PLT communication module.
This module can be used as a WiFi or LAN interface.
The LAN interface provided via the module complies with SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) in accordance with EN 60950. Connected appliances must also comply with  SELV. The LAN connection uses an RJ45 connector in accordance with EIA/TIA 568-B.

Installation and anchoring
The appliance must be installed on a perfectly smooth, level, and firm surface which is able to withstand the quoted loads.
The floor load created by the appliance is concentrated and transferred to the installation footprint via the appliance feet. The tumble dryer should be leveled in both directions with the aid of the adjustable feet.
Plinth installation

The tumble dryer can be installed on a plinth (open or box plinth, available as an optional Miele accessory) or on a concrete plinth to be provided on- site.
The quality of the concrete and its strength must be assessed according to the appliance load. Ensure that any raised concrete plinth is adequately bonded to the floor below.

Washer-dryer stack
The tumble dryer can be installed as a washer-dryer stack together with a Miele washing machine. A stacking kit (optional accessory) is required for this. Installation of the stacking kit must be performed by the MieleCustomer Service Department or an authorized Miele service technician.
