Installation and connection Side view View from above Rear view Washer-dryer stack a Protruding lid (see arrows) for holding when moving the machine The tumble dryer can be combined with a Miele washing machine in a washer-dryer stack. A stacking kit is required which can be purchased from Miele. The stacking kit must be fitted by a Miele authorised service technician.
Installation and connection Installing the tumble dryer Levelling the machine ,Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation. Transporting the dryer to its installation site The machine must be perfectly level to ensure safe and proper operation. When moving the dryer hold it by the lid where it protrudes to the rear. To manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing case to its installation site you will also need to hold it by the front feet.
Installation and connection ,A ventilation gap of 10 mm must be maintained between the base of the machine and the floor. It must not be blocked by deep pile carpets, plinths, etc, which would prevent a sufficient intake of cold air. This tumble dryer is not suitable for building under. Securing the tumble dryer against slippage Payment system The dryer can be fitted with a payment system (optional accessory). This must be connected and programmed by a Miele Service technician.
Installation and connection Electrical connection ,All electrical work must be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with current local and national safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). This machine is supplied with a connection cable without a plug for connection to a suitable connection socket or isolator switch. The machine must only be operated with the voltage, frequency and fuse rating shown on the data plate supplied with the machine.
Installation and connection Single phase AC 230 V - country variant This device is intended for connection to a power supply system where the maximum value of external phase neutral loop impedance Zmax of 0.39 Ohms at the point of distributor supply connection is not exceeded. If in doubt, please ask your electrical distributor for actual Zmax value. The user has to ensure that this device is connected only to a power supply system which fulfils the requirement above.
Installation - extraction ducting General ,Before operating the tumble dryer, a suitable ducting system must be installed to carry the moist air from the dryer to the outside. The dryer must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply whilst the ducting system is installed. The venting outlet (e.g. in a wall) should be installed in such a way that the moist expelled air: . .cannot be drawn back into the room in which the dryer is installed; . . .
Installation - extraction ducting To calculate the total duct length Friction against the inner walls of the vent ducting will slow down the expelled air as it passes through the ducting. An elbow, bend, non-return flap or wall vent creates more friction than a straight duct. The friction created by each of these is expressed as an additional duct length factor.
Installation - extraction ducting Installation to the rear, left or right hand side of the machine Calculation example To the rear The connection is opened at the factory. ^ Fit one of the venting systems described on the following pages. To the left or right side of the machine. A Wall pipe, with louvred vent = 1 x 3.8 m Additional duct length B/D 2 bends, 90° = 2 x 0.8 m Additional duct length C = 1.6 m 0.5 m plastic piping = 0.5 x 1 m Additional duct length E = 3.8 m = 0.
Installation - extraction ducting Venting system with plastic piping An adapter for installing piping is supplied with the dryer. Plastic piping is a good option where the vented air has to be ducted for some distance. The smooth walls of the pipe are less resistant to vented air than the walls of a flexible vent hose, for example. Time and energy consumption are better with plastic piping.
Installation - extraction ducting Venting system with flexible ducting Example Window vent This is a simple method of directing the moist air outside using an adapter*. The following items are required: – flexible ducting hose* – an adapter* for flexible ducting hose – a wall vent kit* or window vent kit*. (* optional accessories) 1. Window vent kit (fitted in a "plexiglass" pane) (separate fitting instructions are supplied with the Miele window vent kit) 2.
Installation - extraction ducting Connection to an exhaust flue 1. Pipe with connection piece (= supplied with wall vent kit) 2. Adapter for flexible ducting hose 3. Exhaust flue insulated against damp ,The exhaust air must not be vented into a chimney or vent flue which is in use, nor should it be connnected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
Installation - extraction ducting Main venting duct ,There must be one non-return flap per dryer installed directly on the main venting duct R. Additional Miele accessories* are required for this purpose, otherwise the dryers could be damaged and their electrical safety compromised.
