Disposal of packaging material
The packaging material protects the
dryer from transport damage. 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
manufacturing process and also the
amount of waste. You can return the
packaging to your Miele dealer.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain valuable materials. They also
contain certain substances, compounds
and components which were essential
for the proper functioning and safe use
of the equipment. Handling these
materials improperly by disposing of
them in your household waste can be
harmful to your health and the
environment. Therefore, please do not
dispose of your old appliance with
regular household waste and follow
local regulations on proper disposal.
Consult with local authorities, dealers or

Important information regarding use of fabric softener sheets:
We do not recommend use of fabric softener sheets. Use of fabric
softener sheets can clog the surfaces of the lint filters, extending the
drying time and increasing energy consumption. During subsequent
cleaning, the plastic and surfaces of the lint filters can be damaged!
The best results are obtained by using liquid fabric softener in the
washing machine. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
If you still wish to use fabric softener sheets, be sure to follow the
cleaning instructions under “Cleaning and care” in the “Cleaning
instructions when using fabric softener sheets” section.
Tip:
Using a fragrance flacon (optional accessory) will add a pleasant
fragrance to your laundry.
When a fragrance flacon is used, the fragrance is acquired by the
entire load of laundry. The disadvantage of fabric softener sheets is
that under certain circumstances the fragrance is acquired by only a
few items of laundry, especially when drying a full load.
When you use a fragrance flacon, always follow the warnings
in this section as well as those under “Fragrance flacon”.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9
To prevent the risk of fire, the following textiles must not be dried
in this dryer:
– items which have not been washed.
– items, such as work-wear, exposed to grease, oils, or other
deposits (such as lotions or cosmetics) in your dryer. If these
items have not been thoroughly cleaned there is a danger that
they may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the
laundry to ignite when heated even after being removed from the
dryer.
– items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable
or explosive substances. They may give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
– items treated with flammable cleaning agents or items containing
acetone, alcohol, petrol, stain remover, wax or chemicals from
buffing, etc.
– items which have been splashed with hair spray, nail polish
remover, etc.
When washing heavily soiled items ensure that sufficient
detergent is used with a high temperature. If in doubt wash the
item several times.
– items containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like
materials.
– items with padding or filling (e.g. pillows or jackets) which have
been damaged. Loose filling could catch fire.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
Allow the dryer to complete each stage of the program selected,
including the cooling down phase. This will ensure that the items
being removed are not too hot to handle.
Clean the lint filter before or after each load.
Keep the area around the air intake (toe kick) and adjacent
surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by
qualified personnel.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

a Miele authorized person or by Miele Technical Service.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
Heat-pump technology and refrigerant:
The heat pump in this tumble dryer uses a gaseous refrigerant which
is condensed by the compressor. The refrigerant, which is brought to
a higher temperature level and liquified by condensing, is led in a
closed circuit through the heat exchanger unit where heat exchange
with the circulating drying air takes place.
– The humming noises caused by the heat pump during the drying
process are normal. This does not impair the efficient functioning
of the dryer.
– The refrigerant is not flammable or explosive.
– This tumble dryer contains fluorinated greenhouse gases.
Hermetically sealed.

Store the fragrance flacon in its original packaging.
Caution: The fragrance can leak out of the flacon! Make sure that
you always keep the flacon, or the lint filter with the flacon inserted in
it, in a horizontal position when carrying and do not tip or place it
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
components (e.g. the lint filter) immediately.
If fragrance comes in contact with the body: Wash skin
thoroughly with soap and water. Flush eyes with clean water for at
least 15minutes. If swallowed, rinse mouth thoroughly with clean
water. Seek medical attention if the fragrance comes in contact with
the eyes or is swallowed!
Immediately change clothes that have come in contact with the
fragrance. Thoroughly wash clothing or fabric using a large amount
of water and detergent.
There is the risk of fire or damage to the tumble dryer if the
following instructions are not observed:
– Never refill a flacon with fragrance or any other substance.

Energy saving tips
18
This dryer with heat-pump technology
is designed for energy-saving drying
cycles. However, you can save a little
more energy with the following
measures as the drying time is not
extended unnecessarily.
– Make sure your laundry is spun at the
maximum spin speed before drying.
The higher the spin speed, the
greater the savings that can be made
in energy and time during drying, e.g.,
approx. 20% energy can be saved if
spun at 1,600rpm instead of
1,000rpm.
– Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for
the program being used. This will
mean that the energy consumption
for the amount of laundry is at its
most economical.
– Make sure that 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 lint filters in the door
opening after every drying cycle.
Functioning of the heat-pump dryer
19
Two separate circuits ensure that the
laundry is dried:
Dry air circuit
The drying air flows through a heat
exchanger, the drum, and several
filters. This is ensured by a blower in
the dryer.
– The drying air flows through the heat
exchanger in the longitudinal
direction and is heated in the rear
area.
– The drying air is then blown into the
drum, where it absorbs the moisture
of the laundry.
– The damp drying air is blown back
through the heat exchanger via
several filters in the fill area and the
plinth area of the dryer.
– The drying air cools down in the
front, cool area of the heat
exchanger, and loses its moisture.
– The circuit begins again.
Refrigerant circuit
The refrigerant circuit regulates the
heating and cooling of the drying air
through the heat exchanger. The heat
pump is the central component: This
is a compressor that is connected to a
pipeline system which is filled with
refrigerant.
– The pipeline system surrounds the
heat exchanger in several bends.
– The compressor draws in the
gaseous refrigerant and compresses
it, causing the temperature to rise.
– The hot refrigerant is passed through
the pipeline system to the rear of the
heat exchanger. The heat is released
into the drying air, which flows
through the heat exchanger.
– The refrigerant liquifies by dissipating
the heat.
– The liquid refrigerant then flows
through a capillary tube (a very thin
tube) to the front area of the heat
exchanger. This changes the
pressure of the refrigerant.
– The refrigerant cools and reverts to
its gaseous state. This in turn cools
the front area of the heat exchanger
and dehumidifies the drying air.
– The circuit begins anew.

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
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
– Do not load the drum with items that
are still soaking wet. Make sure your
laundry is spun at the maximum spin
speed before drying. The higher the
spin speed, the greater the savings
that can be made in energy and time
during drying.
– New dark colored garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light colored garments. There is the
risk of colors running and discoloring
other garments or even plastic
components in the dryer. Dark
colored fibers can also settle on light
colored garments and vice versa.
– Starched laundry can be tumble
dried. 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.
Read and observe “IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
– Sort the laundry according to the type
of fiber 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.
– Untangle the laundry.
– Tie together textile belts and apron
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 zippers 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 dress
shirts or blouses.

Tip: See the “Program chart”.
This describes the programs and gives
their maximum load.
– Always observe the maximum
recommended load for each program.
This will mean that the energy
consumption for the amount of
laundry is at its most economical.
– Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink,
depending on the quality of the item.
Only use the Smoothing program for
these items.
– 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. Only use the
Smoothing program for these items.
– Woolens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if tumble
dried. Only use the Woolens/Silks
program for these items.
– Jersey fabrics (e.g., T-shirts,
underwear) tend to shrink when they
are washed for the first time.
Therefore, do not over-dry the fabrics
to prevent them from shrinking
further. Buy jersey fabrics that are
one or two sizes bigger.
– Select the extra Gentle option for
fabric which is particularly heat-
sensitive or susceptible to creasing.
Selecting the right drying level
– Extra dry or Normal Plus if you want
to fold the laundry after drying and
put it in the closet.
– Normal or Slightly dry for textiles that
can shrink. Or for light cotton or
jersey textiles.
– Hand iron or Machine iron if you want
to iron the laundry after drying.

Cleaning instructions when using
fabric softener sheets
If you are using fabric softener sheets,
please follow these warnings and
instructions.
First, clean the filters as
described 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
below.
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 the impurities/obstructions.
Risk of fire!
Then rinse the filter surfaces
thoroughly 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
thoroughly with warm water to
remove all residues.
Cleaning and care
51
Cleaning the plinth filter
Clean the plinth filter whenever

Cleaning and care
52
Cleaning
Pull the handle out of the plinth filter.
Clean the plinth filter thoroughly
under clear, running water.
Do not add any chlorine-
containing cleaning agents or
detergents to the water.
In the long run, these detergents
could damage the plinth filter
material and make it brittle.
The plinth filter must not be
replaced dripping wet. This can
cause a fault.
Carefully squeeze the water out of the
plinth filter.
Use a damp cloth to remove any lint
from the handle.
Cleaning the plinth filter flap
Use a damp cloth to remove any lint.
Make sure that you do not damage
the rubber seal when doing this.
Check whether the cooling fins are
blocked with lint (as follows).
Cleaning and care
53
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 lint has accumulated.
If there is visible soiling:
Damage due to incorrect
cleaning of the heat exchanger.
The dryer will not dry if the cooling
fins are damaged or bent.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a dusting
brush attached to clean the cooling
fins. Only pass the vacuum cleaner
brush over them lightly, without
applying any pressure.
Carefully vacuum up any visible lint or
dirt.
Inserting the plinth filter

pin at the same time.
Close the heat exchanger flap.
Cleaning and care
54
Damage or ineffective drying if
drying takes place without a plinth
filter or when the heat exchanger flap
is open.
Excessive accumulations of lint 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 flap closed.
Cleaning the dryer
Disconnect the tumble dryer from the
electrical supply.
Damage due to the use of
unsuitable care products.
Unsuitable care products could
damage plastic surfaces and other
parts.
Do not use any solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners, or all-
purpose cleaners.
Clean the tumble dryer and the seal
on the inside of the door with a
slightly damp soft cloth and a mild
solution of liquid dish soap and water.
Dry all the parts with a soft cloth.

Unsatisfactory drying results
Problem Possible cause and solution
The laundry is not suffi-
ciently dry.
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
Finish drying using the Time Dry timed drying
program.
Select a more suitable program next time.
Tip: You can alter the residual moisture level for some
programs. See “Settings”.
The laundry or feather-
filled pillows develop a
smell after drying.
The laundry was washed with insufficient detergent.
Feathers have the property of developing a
significant odor when they are warm.
Laundry: use sufficient detergent.
Pillows: take out of the tumble dryer and air them.
Use a fragrance flacon (available as an optional
accessory) for your favorite fragrance.
Items made of synthetic
fibers are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
Synthetic fibers tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric
softener to the final rinse in the washing program.
There is a build-up of
lint.
Lint is principally the result of friction when garments
are being worn and to some extent when they are
being washed. Machine drying hardly causes any lint
to form.
Lint is collected by the lint filters and the plinth filter
and can be removed easily.
See “Cleaning and care”.

Transporting the tumble dryer
Danger of injury to people and
damage to property caused by
moving the appliance incorrectly.
If the tumble dryer tips up, there is a
danger of injury to people and
damage to property.
Ensure that the tumble dryer is stable
during transportation.
If the tumble dryer is being
transported on its side, it must be
tipped onto its left or right side.
If the tumble dryer is being
transported upright and you are using
a hand truck, you must transport it
with its left or right side resting on the
truck.
Transporting the tumble dryer to its
installation site
The fixings at the back of the lid
may become brittle due to external
circumstances.
There is a danger of the lid being
pulled off when carrying the
appliance.

67
Installation
Leveling the tumble dryer
Ensure that no closeable door,
sliding door, or an oppositely hinged
door is installed that would hinder
the door of the dryer being opened in
any way.
The appliance must stand perfectly
level to ensure safe and proper
operation.
The screw feet can be adjusted to
compensate for unevenness in the floor.
Ventilation
The cool air intake at the front of the
dryer must not be blocked or
covered. This would hinder a
sufficient intake of cool air for the
heat exchanger.
Do not block the gap between the
bottom of the tumble dryer and the
floor with toe kicks, deep pile carpet,
etc. This would otherwise hinder a
sufficient flow of air to the tumble
dryer.
The hot air that is blown out from the
heat exchanger warms the room air.
Ensure sufficient ventilation of the
room, e.g., open the window. The
drying time will otherwise take longer
(higher energy requirement).
Before moving the tumble dryer
again
A small quantity of condensed water
that remains in the area around the
pump after the drying process can run
out if the dryer is tilted.
Recommendation: Start the Time Dry
program for approx. 1minute before
transporting the dryer. Any remaining
condensed water will then be fed into
the condensed water container (which
you will need to empty again) or out
through the drain hose.

SmartGrid
The Remote control setting is only
visible if the Miele@home setting is set
up and activated.
This function can be used for starting
your tumble dryer automatically at a
time when your energy costs are most
economical.
Activating SmartGrid, gives the delay
start button a new function. You set the
SmartGrid via the “delay start” button.
The tumble dryer will then start within
the timeframe specified when it receives
a signal from the energy supplier. If it
has not received a signal from the
energy supplier by the latest start time
set, the tumble dryer will start
automatically (see “Delay start”). Please
check with your local utility provider for
availability.
The SmartGrid function is switched off
by default.
