Installation notes
Installation requirements
The tumble dryer must only be installed and commissioned by Miele Customer
Service Department or an authorized 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.
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
recognized 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 authorized
dealer. During the conversion, the wiring instructions given on the wiring
diagram must be followed.
The tumble dryer can either be hard-wired or connected using a plug-and-socket
connection in accordance with IEC 60309-1. For a hard-wired connection, an
all-pole isolation device must be available at the installation site.
An isolation device is a switch that ensures a contact opening of more than 3 mm. These include circuit breakers, fuses, and contactors (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 authorization.
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).
The tumble dryer must not be connected to devices such as timers which would
switch it off automatically.
If local regulations require that a residual current device (RCD) is installed, a type B residual current device (sensitive to universal current) must be used.
Gas connection
The gas connection must only be carried out by a registered installation
technician in accordance with the applicable national regulations (see
installation instructions).
The use of a gas socket is not permitted at the specified heater rating as the
flow rate is too low. 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 family is changed, a conversion kit must be requested from the
Miele Customer Service Department (please specify the appliance type, serial
number, gas family, gas group, gas connection pressure, and country of
installation). Follow the installation instructions. This conversion may only
be carried out by a registered specialist.
Air intake/exhaust air
The tumble dryer may only be operated when the ducting has been connected
properly
and the room is sufficiently ventilated.
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.

Gas connection
| Nominal heat rating | 36 kW |
|---|
Machine-side connection according to ISO 7-1
To connect the gas appliance, a corrugated metal hose line made of stainless
steel according to DIN 3384
must be used. The shut-off device must be provided on-site. Due to an
insufficient flow rate, the use of a
gas socket is not permissible with the specified heating output.| ½”
Connection thread for natural gas, on-site (internal thread)| ½”
Connection thread for liquid gas, on-site (internal thread)| ½”
Alternative on-site connection with high-precision steel pipe according to DIN
2391/DIN2393, with smooth
pipe end Min. connection length| DN 12
40 mm
Connection pressure according to DIN EN 437. Connection to gas supply must
comply with national regulations.
Waste air/gas
| Max. nominal airflow invented mode (PDR 9xx only) | 1010 m³/h |
|---|---|
| Max. nominal airflow (PDR 5xx only) | 1010 m³/h |
| Max. permissible pressure loss | 240 Pa |
| Connection on machine side (ext. diameter) | 150 mm |
| Connection pipe provided on-site (int. diameter) | 150 mm |
| Max. temperature | 80 °C |
This tumble dryer is a gas-burning machine without a flow-operated safety
device with a fan downstream of the heat exchanger (technical design: B22).
Waste gas pipework must be pressure-tight. Waste gas connections should be
performed in accordance with national and local regulations and may require
approval.
As relative humidity inside the vent ducting can be as high as 100%, suitable
measures must be taken to prevent a backflow of condensate into the machine.
Air intake
Standard connection: air intake from the installation site
Recommended free air intake cross-section into the room:
(equivalent to 3 times the exhaust air cross-section of a machine).
There must be sufficient air intake to the installation site to match the air
outlet volume.| 531 cm²

Connection pipe provided on-site (external diameter)| 161 mm
160 mm
Removing the protective cover exposes live parts. For safety reasons, a pipe
must be installed from the tumble dryer’s central fresh air intake (over a
minimum length of 900 mm) and secured with 2 screws.
