Cleaning instructions when using
fabric softener sheets
If you are using fabric softener sheets,
please follow these warnings and in-
structions.
First, clean the filters as de-
scribed in “Cleaning the lint filters
with water”.
If the surfaces of the lint filters are
still strongly compacted with lint,
then follow these measures.
Please note the plastic and surfaces
of the lint filters can be damaged by
the cleaning process described be-
low.
If the surfaces of the lint filters
are not cleaned, this can extend the
drying time and increase the energy
consumption.
Try the following 3 cleaning instructions
to determine the one that achieves the
best results.
Option 1
Wipe the surfaces of the lint filters
several times with a cleaning cloth
with an alcohol base until you have
removed any debris//obstructions.
Risk of fire!
Then rinse the filter surfaces thor-
oughly with warm water to remove all
residues.
Option 2
Clean the lint filters in the dishwasher
without any other dishes. Use a high-
temperature program.
Option 3
Wet the surfaces of the lint filters with
a liquid color detergent (e.g., Miele
Ultra Color Liquid Laundry Detergent).
Leave it on for approx. 2 hours.
Risk of fire!
Then rinse the filter surfaces thor-
oughly with warm water to remove all
residues.
