Warning and Safety instructions

Explanation of the Warning and Safety

symbols on the machine

It is essential to read these operating in-

structions.

Please refer to specific instructions, e.g.

Installation instructions

Caution, hot surfaces.

Caution, voltage up to 1000 volts.

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 im-

portant information about the installation, safety,

use and maintenance of the machine. Keep them

in a safe place and ensure that new users are fa-

miliar with the content. Pass them on to any future

owner of the machine.

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

Programmes 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.

– items which have been splashed with hair lacquer,

hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar sub-

stances.

– 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. pil-

lows, jackets).

– items soiled with grease or oil which have not been

properly cleaned beforehand. Use heavy-duty de-

tergents 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 re-

moved as soon as the programme 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. ciga-

rette 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.

Technical and electrical safety

This machine must only be installed and commis-

sioned by a Miele authorised 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 regu-

larly, and where there is any doubt, the on-site electri-

cal wiring should be inspected by a qualified electri-

cian. 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 and gas heated appliances

should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and

competent person in accordance with local and na-

tional safety regulations. Repairs and other work by

unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manu-

facturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Faulty components must only be replaced by gen-

uine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts

are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be

guaranteed.

This machine must not be operated in the same

room as dry cleaning machines which use solvents

containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Escaping va-

pours break down during combustion into hydrochlo-

ric acid which can have a detrimental effect on both

the laundry and the machine. Even when such ma-

chines are installed in separate rooms, care should

be taken to ensure that no exchange of air can take

place.
