Guide to the machine Pushbuttons Indicator lamps – Door This button is used to open the door (does not stay pushed in). – PROGRAM SEQUENCE The program sequence indicator lamps show the current state of the drying program. – ON / OFF When the machine is turned on, the “On” indicator will light up if the door is closed. If the door is open, the drum light will be on. – Buzzer Allows the buzzer to sound when the drum rotates during the anti-crease cycle.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following: 1. Read these operating instructions before using your dryer for the first time, as this is for your own safety and for the protection of your machine. 2.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 13.The interior of the machine and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified personnel. 14.Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. 15.Do not tamper with controls. 16.Do not repair or place any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user maintenance instruction or in published user repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
Your contribution to the environment Your contribution to the environment Disposal of the packing material. The transport and protective packing is mostly manufactured from the following recycled or re-useable materials: – corrugated paper/cardboard Disposal of your old machine. Old machines contain materials which can be recycled. Please contact your recycling center or scrap merchant and render the machine inoperative as per the “Important Safety Instructions” before disposing of the appliance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance. Loading the machine Load the laundry loosely into the drum. Duvet covers and pillowcases should be fastened before drying in order to prevent small items from rolling inside of them.
Notes on laundry care Notes on laundry care Before drying, check the instructions on the fabric care label. The following fabrics should not be dried in a tumble dryer: – Woollens and wool blends These fabrics tend to become matted and shrink. – Items filled with down The fine fabric interior tends to shrink, depending on the quality of the item involved. – Pure linen These items should only be machinedried if specified as suitable by the manufacturer on the textile care label.
Program selection Program selection Functional description An electronic sensor system monitors the moisture content of the laundry. Once the required degree of dryness is reached, cold air then enters the drum to cool the laundry. The drying program is then terminated. Function of the pushbuttons – Load size - Full / Half To dry a standard size load of 2,3 kg or more at peak efficiency, press this button before starting the drying cycle. – Start Starts the selected program.
Program selection To select a program A program can only be selected when the machine is turned on. To change a program during drying Set the program selector to the desired program. The new program will start from the beginning. The tables on the following pages lists the range of applications for the different programs. Correct procedure 1 Press the “On/Off” button. 2 Press the “Door” button and load the drum. Set the desired program by turning the program selector either clockwise or counterclockwise.
Programs Programs COTTONS Type of laundry/fabric Max. load Special instructions Extra dry Multi-layer fabrics, mixed load of cotton fabrics, e.g.jeans, towels, sweatsuits. 5 kg The “Extra dry” program should not be selected for jersey wear items. Normal Homogeneous loads of cotton fabrics e.g. flannel items, underwear, socks. 5 kg Should items still be damp, select the “Extra dry” program. Normal- * Knitted cotton fabrics particularly suspectible to shrinkage, e.g.
Programs PERMANENT PRESS Normal + Normal * Hand iron Type of laundry/fabric Max. load Special instructions Permanent press items made of synthetic or blended fabrics, e.g. pullovers, dresses, pants, etc., which are not dried adequately in the “Normal” program. Permanent press shirts, table cloths, bedding etc. made of blended woven or knitted fabrics, e.g. cotton/synthetic. 2.
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Cleaning and care Cleaning the lint filters The lint is collected by the lint filter in the door. Clean the filter after every program. Cleaning the dryer Before cleaning the tumble dryer; disconnect the machine from the power supply. The dryer can be cleaned using soapy water or a mild detergent (not scouring powder) and dried with a soft cloth.
Problem solving guide Problem solving guide Electrical appliances should only be repaired by qualified personnel. Incorrectly repaired machines may put the user at risk. There are, however, minor problems which can be corrected without contacting the Service Department. What to do if, . . . ? Cause . . . Remedy . . . . . . the tumble dryer fails to start when turned on? Check whether the “On” indicator lights up. If so, failure to start may be due to an incorrect program selection procedure.
Problem solving guide What to do if, . . . ? Cause . . . Remedy . . . . . . the drum door opens during the drying cycle? The machine has overheated. The temperature limiter opened the drum door and caused the machine to turn off automatically. Possible reasons for overheating: – The lint filter in the door is clogged. – The vent duct is blocked. – The vent aperture (e.g. louvred window vent, wall vent) is blocked. Before restarting the program, proceed as follows: – Release the ON/OFF button.
Problem solving guide The interior drum light fails to function: The bulb may be defective. Replace it as follows: To open the door in the event of a power failure Pull forward on the un-hinged side of the door. Turn off the machine or disconnect it from the power supply. Open the door. Unscrew the plastic bulb cover located inside the drum and above the door (see illustration). The light bulb must not exceed the maximum wattage quoted on the data plate. Replace the bulb and the plastic cover.
After-sales service After-sales service In the event of problems which cannot be solved, please contact: – Your Miele Dealer – The nearest Miele Service Department (see back cover for the adress). When contacting the Service Department, please quote the Model and Serial numbers of your appliance, both of which can be found on the right side after the door is opened.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Grounding and Electrical connection Grounding instructions This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
Installation Installation Where to install the machine The space required by the vent duct should be taken into consideration when calculating the distance between the machine and a wall or other appliances. The tumble dryer can also be placed on top of a Miele washing machine for a stacked installation. The machine should be level to ensure safe and proper operation. Minor discrepancies do not, however, have an adverse effect on operation.
Installation - venting Installation - venting The moist air from the dryer must be vented to the outside. The appliance should not be vented into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or any concealed spaces of the building. When installing, try to avoid: – very long venting systems – too many bends or angles – tight corners otherwise . . . . . . the drying result will be affected, . . . drying will take longer and use more energy.
Installation - venting The shorter the exhaust ductwork, the more efficient the dryer will be. Expelled air is slowed down in the ducts due to friction against the inner walls, therefore the shorter and smoother the inner walls are, the less friction will occur. An elbow or bend creates more friction than a straight duct. An additional duct length factor must therefore be added for each elbow or bend (see Table I). This factor expresses the resistance of the bend in terms of a straight length of duct.
