Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufactur-
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appli-
ance
Electrical and electronic appliances of-
ten contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, com-
pounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and
safety. These could be hazardous to hu-
man health and to the environment if
disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com-
munity waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic ap-
pliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also respons-
ible (by law, depending on country) for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance being disposed
of. Please ensure that your old appli-
ance poses no risk to children while be-
ing stored prior to disposal.

Heat pump technology and refrigerant:
this tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which is condensed by
the compressor. The refrigerant, which is brought to a higher temper-
ature level and liquefied by condensing, is led in a closed circuit
through the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange with the circu-
lating drying air takes place.
Damage to the tumble dryer by switching it on too soon.
This can damage the heat pump.
After setting up the tumble dryer wait for at least one hour before
switching it on.
The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. They do not impair the efficient functioning of
the dryer.
The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
This tumble dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Her-
metically sealed.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
Do not block the gap between the bottom of the tumble dryer and
the floor with plinth facings, deep pile carpet etc. This would hinder a
sufficient flow of air to the dryer.
Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after
installation.
This tumble dryer must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
Do not make any alterations to the tumble dryer, unless authorised
to do so by Miele.
This tumble dryer is supplied with a special lamp to cope with
particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resist-
ance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must only
be used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for room
lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised
person or the Miele Service Department.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Correct use
Do not install the tumble dryer in a room where there is a risk of
frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the tumble
dryer may not be able to operate properly. There is a risk of damage
if the condensed water is allowed to freeze in the pump and hoses.
The maximum load for this tumble dryer is 8.0 kg (dry weight).
The maximum recommended loads for individual programmes are
given in the Programme chart.
To prevent the risk of fire, do not connect the tumble dryer via a
controllable socket (e.g. a timer or a peak-load switch-off device).
If the drying programme is interrupted before the end of the cooling
down phase, this could cause the laundry to self-ignite.
Warning: Do not switch the dryer off before the drying pro-
gramme has finished. If this is done, the laundry must be hung up or
spread out to cool it down.
In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling
down phase to ensure that the items are not too hot to handle when
you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry self-ig-
niting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down phase
has been completed.
As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the
drum.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this tumble dryer:
Items which have not been washed.
Items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly
cleaned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other depos-
its (such as cosmetics, lotions etc). If items have not been thor-
oughly cleaned there is a danger that these might ignite when
heated, even after they have been removed from the dryer at the
end of the programme.
Items (e.g. mops and floor cloths) which have been treated with
inflammable cleaning agents or which contain residues of acet-
one, alcohol, benzene, petrol, kerosene, stain remover, turpentine,
wax and wax remover or other chemicals.
Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varnish remover or similar substances.
When washing such heavily soiled items ensure that you use suffi-
cient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt, wash
the items several times.
Remove all items from pockets (e.g. lighters, matches).
Warning and Safety instructions
14
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this tumble dryer:
Items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g. professional
dry-cleaning agents).
Items which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex
foam rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles
and items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.
Damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,
jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of it
igniting in the dryer.
Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the
danger of:
Children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it.
Pets or other small animals climbing into it.
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the door, as this can cause the
tumble dryer to tip up.
The fluff filters must be cleaned after every drying cycle.
The fluff filters and the plinth filter must be thoroughly dried after
cleaning. Do not replace them if they are damp or wet. Damp or wet
filters could cause operational faults.
Warning and Safety instructions
15
The tumble dryer must not be used without fluff filters or
with damaged fluff filters, or
with a damaged plinth filter.
This would cause an excessive build-up of fluff which in turn would
cause a fault.
If the water is drained externally through the drain hose instead of
being collected in the condensed water container, make sure the
drain hose is securely attached if you hang it in a sink or basin to
avoid the hose slipping and the water causing damage.
Condensed water is not drinking water.
It can cause health problems in both people and animals if con-
sumed.
Always keep the area around the tumble dryer free of dust and
fluff.
Dust drawn into the tumble dryer can cause blockages in the heat
exchanger over time.
The tumble dryer must not be hosed down.
Fabric conditioner and similar products must be used according
to the instructions on the manufacturer's packaging.
Warning and Safety instructions
16
Using a fragrance flacon (optional accessory)
Only use genuine Miele original fragrance flacons.
The fragrance flacon must be stored in its packaging so please
make sure you retain this.
Caution. The fragrance can leak out of the flacon. Make sure that
you always keep the flacon, or the fluff filter with the flacon inserted
in it, in a horizontal position when carrying and do not tip or place
down on any surface.
Use an absorbent cloth to wipe up any fragrance which has
leaked out of the flacon onto the floor, the dryer or any dryer com-
ponents (e.g. the fluff filter) immediately.
If fragrance which has leaked out of a flacon: comes into contact
with the skin - wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water; comes
in contact with the eyes - rinse the eyes with clean water for at least
15 minutes; is swallowed - rinse out the mouth thoroughly with
clean water. Seek medical advice in the case of contact with the
eyes or if fragrance has been swallowed.
If fragrance which has leaked out of a flacon comes in contact
with clothing, change the clothing immediately. Wash the clothing or
any cloths used for mopping up fragrance thoroughly with plenty of
water and detergent.
There is the risk of fire or damage to the tumble dryer if the follow-
ing instructions are not observed:
Never refill a flacon with fragrance.
Never use a faulty fragrance flacon.
Dispose of an empty fragrance flacon with the household waste
and never use it for any other purpose.
Please also observe the information supplied with the fragrance
flacon.

After installing the dryer
Before using the tumble dryer for
the first time, ensure that it is in-
stalled and connected to the electri-
city supply correctly. If it has not
been transported as described in “In-
stallation and connection” then it
must be left to stand for at least 1
hour before it is connected to the
electricity supply.
Follow the procedure for using
for the first time outlined in
these instructions.
Read “1. Notes on correct laundry
care” and “2. Load the tumble dryer.
You can then load the dryer and se-
lect a programme as described in “3.
Select a programme and start it”.
Energy saving tips
22
To avoid unnecessarily long drying
times and high consumption of energy:
Make sure that your laundry is thor-
oughly spun before drying.
The higher the spin, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying.
Observe the maximum recommen-
ded loading capacity for the relevant
programme for optimum energy con-
sumption and for excellent results.
Make sure the room temperature is
not too high. If there are other heat
producing appliances in the room in
which the dryer is located, make sure
the room is well ventilated and switch
the other appliances off, if possible.
Clean the fluff filters in the door
opening after every drying cycle.
Please refer to “Cleaning and care” for
information on cleaning the fluff filters
and the plinth filter.
If possible, make use of time-vari-
able, low-cost electricity tariffs. Ask
your energy supplier for information.
Your tumble dryer's delay start func-
tion will be useful as you can select
when during the next 24 hours you
want drying to start automatically.
1. Notes on correct laundry care
23
Points to note regarding
washed laundry
When washing very heavily soiled
items ensure that you use sufficient
detergent and select a high temperat-
ure. If in doubt, wash the items sev-
eral times.
Do not put soaking wet items into the
tumble dryer. Make sure your laundry
is thoroughly spun before drying. The
higher the spin speed, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying.
New dark coloured garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light coloured garments to avoid the
danger of colours running and discol-
ouring other garments or even plastic
components in the dryer. Dark col-
oured fibres can also settle on light
coloured garments and vice versa.
Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual
finish, double the amount of starch
should be used.
Preparing the laundry before
drying
Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the
laundry.
Foreign objects can melt, burn, or
explode.
Ensure that any foreign objects, e.g.
detergent dispensing balls, lighters,
etc. have been removed from the
laundry.
Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation.
The laundry can burn and destroy
the dryer and the surroundings.
See “Warning and Safety” instruc-
tions for further information.
Sort the laundry according to the type
of fibre and weave, size, garment
care label symbol and the drying level
required.
Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
This way you will avoid the danger of
fillings coming out. These could catch
fire when being dried.
Disentangle the laundry.
Tie together textile belts and ties.
Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from being
rolled up inside them.
Fasten hooks and eyes.
Leave jackets open and undo any
long zips so that textiles dry evenly.
Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
If necessary, reduce the size of the
load for these types of fabric. Easy
care fabric tends to crease more, the
larger the load. This is particularly the
case for garments made from very
fine weave fabric, such as shirts or
blouses.

Laundry care when drying in a
tumble dryer
See the “Programme chart”.
This describes the programmes and
gives their maximum load.
Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for
the programme being used. Under-
loading is uneconomical. Overloading
gives a poorer quality of drying and
may cause unnecessary creasing.
Select an appropriate drying level,
e.g. . . .
. . . Normal, if you want to fold and
put away the laundry after you take it
out of the dryer.
. . . Machine iron, if you intend to pro-
cess the laundry further after drying,
e.g. ironing.
You should only tumble dry pure linen
if it is specified as suitable by the
manufacturer on the care label, as the
surface of the fabric may otherwise
become rough.
Woollens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if dried in
a tumble dryer. They can, however,
be “fluffed up” in the Woollens hand-
care programme.
Loop-knit garments (e.g. T-shirts and
underwear) tend to shrink on their
first wash. Therefore, to prevent fur-
ther shrinking, do not over-dry these
fabrics. When purchasing these gar-
ments it is advisable to take their
shrinkage properties into account.
With fabrics that are particularly heat-
sensitive or susceptible to creasing,
reduce the drying load and select
Gentle tumble.
2. Load the tumble dryer
25
It is essential to read “1. Notes
on correct laundry care” first of all.
Open the door
Pull the door open at the side with
the orange marker.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely
into the drum.
Do not overload the drum.
Overloading can cause unnecessary
wear and tear to the laundry, give a
disappointing drying result and
cause more creasing.
When closing the door make
sure that laundry does not get
trapped in the door opening.
This could damage the laundry.
If you are not using a fragrance
flacon: the tab must be pushed
down completely (see arrow).
Close the door
Shut the door with a gentle swing.

selectable drying levels (see also
“Operating the tumble dryer”).
This dryer measures residual mois-
ture content in the laundry to determ-
ine the required programme duration.
If the tumble dryer is loaded with dry
laundry or only a small load, it will be
dried/aired for a set duration. In this
case, Perfect Dry does not light up at
the programme end.
Avoid over-drying items of laun-
dry and garments.
Otherwise they can wear out!
Energy saving:
after 10 minutes, the indicators dim and
the Start/Stop sensor starts flashing.

Cleaning and care
41
Cleaning the plinth filter panel
Use a damp cloth to remove any fluff.
Make sure that you do not damage
the rubber seal when doing this.
Check whether the cooling fins are
blocked with fluff (as follows).
Checking the heat exchanger unit
Risk of injury from sharp cooling
fins.
You could cut yourself.
Do not touch the cooling fins with
your hands.
Look to see if fluff has accumulated.
If there is visible soiling:
Damage due to incorrect clean-
ing of the heat exchanger.
The dryer will not dry if the cooling
fins are damaged or bent.

panel.
Damage or ineffective drying if
drying takes place without a plinth
filter or when the heat exchanger ac-
cess panel is open.
An excessive accumulation of fluff
can damage the dryer in the long
term. If the system is not leak-tight,
this can make the drying ineffective.
You may only operate the dryer with
the plinth filter fitted correctly and the
heat exchanger access panel closed.
Cleaning and care
43
Tumble dryer
Disconnect the tumble dryer
from the mains electricity supply.
Do not use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or all-pur-
pose cleaners.
These could damage plastic surfaces
and other parts.
Clean the tumble dryer with a slightly
damp cloth and a mild non-abrasive
cleaning agent or a solution of wash-
ing-up liquid and water.
Clean the seal around the inside of
the door with a damp cloth.
Dry all parts with a soft cloth.
The drum and other stainless steel
parts can be cleaned with a suitable
proprietary stainless steel cleaner fol-
lowing the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
Fragrance flacon
44
Using a fragrance flacon (optional ac-
cessory) will add a pleasant fragrance
to your laundry.
Before using a fragrance flacon,
please read “Warning and safety in-
structions - Using a fragrance flacon
(optional accessory)”.
Inserting a fragrance flacon

is the position at which you can feel
a resistance.
Before drying
You can select the intensity of the fra-
grance.
Turn the outer ring clockwise: the fur-
ther you open the flacon, the more in-
tense the fragrance.
Damp laundry and longer drying dura-
tions with sufficient heat transfer are
needed for the fragrance to be released
into the laundry effectively. The fra-
grance will also be noticeable in the
room air during the process.
Fragrance flacon
46
After drying
To avoid the fragrance escaping need-
lessly:
Turn the outer ring anti-clockwise un-
til marker b is in position _.
You will feel a slight resistance.
If you want to dry laundry without
adding fragrance occasionally: remove
the fragrance flacon and store it in its
original packaging until you want to
use it again. See the following section.
Replacing the fragrance flacon
When the fragrance is no longer suffi-
ciently intense:
Turn the outer ring anti-clockwise un-
til markers a and b line up.
Replace the fragrance flacon with a
new one.
Fragrance flacons are available to or-
der from Miele or online at www.miele-
shop.com.
Fragrance flacon
47
Never lay the fragrance flacon
down on any surface as the fra-
grance will leak.
Only store the fragrance flacon in its
original packaging
when storing the fragrance flacon in
its original packaging whilst you are
not using it, e.g. whilst cleaning the
tumble dryer: to prevent the fragrance
leaking do not store the packaging
upright on its edge or upside down.
store in a cool, dry place
store away from direct sunlight
when purchasing new fragrance flac-
ons: only remove the protective seal
just before use
Cleaning the fluff filters
The intensity of the fragrance will be di-
minished if the fluff filters and the plinth
filter are not cleaned.
The fragrance filter must be re-
moved before cleaning the fluff filter.
To prevent any fragrance leaking
out of the flacon:
when not in use, the fragrance flacon
must only be stored in its original
packaging as illustrated.
Clean the fluff filters and the plinth fil-
ter: see “Cleaning and care”.

Unsatisfactory drying results
Problem Cause and remedy
The laundry is not suffi-
ciently dry.
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
Finish drying using the Warm air programme.
Select a more suitable programme next time.
Useful tip: You can alter the drying levels for some
programmes. See “Programmable functions”, sections
 Drying levels Cottons” and “ Drying levels
Minimum iron”.
Laundry or feather filled
pillows smell after dry-
ing
The laundry was washed with insufficient detergent
Feathers are a natural product and this is quite nor-
mal.
Laundry: use sufficient detergent next time.
Pillows: take out of the tumble dryer and air them.
Use a fragrance flacon (available as an optional
accessory) for your favourite fragrance.
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric
conditioner to the final rinse in the washing pro-
gramme.
There is a build-up of
fluff
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments
are being worn and to some extent when they are be-
ing washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to
form.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and the plinth filter
and can be removed easily.
See “Cleaning and care”.
