Earthing
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the
machine read the operating instructions carefully
before using it for the first time. They contain
important information about the installation, safety,
use and maintenance of the machine. Keep them
in a safe place and ensure that new users are
familiar with the content. Pass them on to any
future owner of the machine.
This tumble dryer is only intended for industrial or
institutional use and should not be used by anyone
who is not specially trained to operate it. This also
applies to industrial applications performed in
residential environments.
All personnel working with this machine must be
fully trained in all aspects of its use and safety.
Correct application
~
This dryer must only be used for drying articles
which were washed in water and which have a care
label stating that the article is suitable for machine
drying.
~
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must
not be dried in this tumble dryer (with the exception
of those fabrics which can be dried in the Special
Programs specifically designed for them):
– fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber,
foam rubber or rubber-like materials.
– items which have been treated with inflammable
cleaning agents.
4
– items which have been splashed with hair lacquer,
hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar
substances.
– items which have been soiled with oils or residues
containing grease (kitchen oils, cosmetics etc.).
– items soiled with wax or other chemicals (e.g.
mops and floor cloths).
– items with damaged padding or fillings (e.g.
pillows, jackets).
– items soiled with grease or oil which have not been
properly cleaned beforehand. Use heavy-duty
detergents where necessary to clean heavily soiled
garments, e.g. workwear. If necessary consult the
detergent manufacturer for advice.
With sensitive fabrics there may be a danger of them
self igniting if dried for too long. They should be
removed as soon as the program has finished or if
there is a power cut.
Keep a fire extinguisher near the machine at all times.
~
Do not unload laundry from the drum until the
cooling down phase has been completed.
Hot laundry can self ignite and cause a fire when
folded or put away.
~
Check that all pockets of workwear etc are empty
to avoid the danger of inflammable objects, e.g.
cigarette lighters, matches, candles or cosmetics
being placed in the dryer.
~
If the dryer is installed in a public area the owner
must ensure that it can be operated safely.
~
This dryer must not be used outside.
Technical and electrical safety
~
This machine must only be installed and
commissioned by a Miele technician.
~
The electrical safety of this machine can only be
guaranteed if connected to a correctly installed
earthing system on site. It is most important that this
basic safety requirement is present and tested
regularly, and where there is any doubt, the on-site
electrical wiring should be inspected by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate earthing
system (e.g. electric shock).
~
The machine is only completely isolated from the
electricity supply either when it is switched off at the
isolator switch or the mains fuse has been withdrawn.
~
Repairs to electrical heated appliances should
only be carried out by a suitably qualified and
competent person in accordance with local and
national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised
work.
~
Faulty components must only be replaced by
genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these
parts are fitted can the safety standards of the
machine be guaranteed.
