IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

, WARNING - Risk of Fire

To reduce the risk of severe injury or

death, follow all installation instructions.

Clothes dryer installation must be

performed by a qualified installer.

Install the clothes dryer according to

the manufacturer's instructions and

local codes.

Repair and maintenance work

should be performed by a Miele

authorized service technician. Work by

unqualified persons could be

dangerous and could void the warranty.

Before installation, disconnect the

tumble dryer from the electrical supply

by shutting off the power main,

unplugging the power cord or tripping

the circuit breaker. Do not restore

power until the installation is complete.

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. Only

place the plug in 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.

Check with a qualified electrician if you

are in doubt as to whether the

appliance is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided

with the appliance! If it will not fit the

outlet, have a proper outlet installed by

a qualified electrician.

Do not use an extension cord to

connect this appliance to the power

supply. Extension cords do not

guarantee the required safety of the

appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

This dryer must be vented outdoors

to reduce the risk of fire. Be sure to

observe local building codes.

Do not install a clothes dryer with

flexible plastic venting materials. If

flexible metal (foil type) duct is

installed, it must be of a specific type

identified by the manufacturer as

suitable for use with clothes dryers.

Flexible venting materials are known to

collapse, be easily crushed, and trap

lint. These conditions will obstruct

clothes dryer airflow and increase the

risk of fire.

Use flexible or rigid metal pipe for

venting. Non-metallic flexible hose

should not be used, it is a potential fire

hazard.

The appliance shall not be

exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a

ceiling, an attic, a crawl space, or a

concealed space of a building.

The installation of this unit in non

stationary locations (e.g. ships) must be

performed by a qualified installer or

service agency, in strict accordance

with national and local safety

regulations and standards.
