WARNING: FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death or property damage. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS Do not try to light any appliance.
Caring for the environment Disposal of the 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 can therefore be recycled. Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Changing the program sequence Touch the Start/Stop sensor button so that the Delay Start period continues. Time left Altering the program sequence can cause the program duration shown in the display to be adjusted.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the lint filter Risk of fire if the tumble dryer is operated without a lint filter. If there is no lint filter, the air channels, heating elements, and duct- ing can become clogged during drying and may catch fire. The lint filter must not be removed for cleaning.
– clear of lint. Additional annual cleaning Miele Technical Service or a trained specialist must check the interior of the tumble dryer and the ducting for lint deposits once per year and clean the machine if necessary. In the case of electrically-heated tumble dryers, the heater bank and the heating shaft must also be checked by Miele Technical Service Department.
Technical Service Contact in case of fault In the event of a fault which you cannot remedy yourself, please contact your Miele dealer or Miele Technical Service. Contact information for Miele Technical Service can be found at the end of this docu- ment.

Installation The floor load created by the tumble dryer is concentrated and transferred to the installa- tion surface via the screw feet. A base is not required. However, an uneven floor surface must be compensated for. (19 11/16") > 300 (24 13/16") (>...
Installation Adjust the tumble dryer screw feet until the machine is level. After the machine has been aligned, screw the washers tightly to the base plate using a screwdriver. Tip: Use a level to ensure correct alignment. Securing the machine The tumble dryer must be secured to the floor by installing the tensioning strips supplied ...
If more than one voltage is specified on the data plate, the tumble dryer can be con- verted for connection to the relevant input voltage. This conversion must be performed by Miele Customer Service or by an authorized dealer. During the conversion, the wiring in- structions given on the wiring diagram must be followed.
Installation In upward exhaust ducting systems, a condensate drain must be fitted to the bottom. The condensate must be drained via a water collection tray or a floor drain positioned in an ap- propriate location. If air is being directed from multiple appliances into a combined line (exceptional circum- stances), a non-return device (non-return flap) must be installed in each separate line to prevent backflow.

Installation Configuring the room ventilation opening Rooms in which rotary irons and tumble dryers are operated must have an induced ventilation system (e.g., ventilation slots in windows and doors, wall openings with grilles, or opened windows or skylights). For example 1 A duct diameter of 6" (150 mm) was specified in example 1.
The gas heating is configured at the factory in line with the gas specifications on the sticker on the rear of the machine. If the gas type is changed, a conversion kit must be requested from Miele Service (please specify the machine type, serial number, gas type, gas group, gas connection pressure, and country of installation).
Page 41
Installation If liquid gas-heated machines are being set up below ground level, the operator must pro- vide the system with the necessary aeration and induced ventilation equipment in accor- dance with technical regulations for liquid propane. If no low pressure occurs when a full fire is burning in all fuel-burning installations, this means that the room ventilation is working properly, even if the exhaust gases from the in- stallations are being extracted mechanically.
