Cleaning and care
Cleaning the fluff filter
The fluff which is created by the dry- ing process is collected in the fluff fil- ter in the door. Clean the filter after every drying cycle.
^Open the door and pull the fluff filter out of the door as illustrated.
^Use your fingers to remove the fluff from the surface of the filter.
^Remove any fluff from the hollow part of the door holder.
A cleaning brush is available as an optional extra from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department.
You can also use a vacuum cleaner.
^Once clean, push the filter back into the door holder until it clicks into po- sition. Ensure it is facing the correct way. Close the door.
If there is a great deal of compacted fluff on the filter, it can be cleaned under hot running water.
^After cleaning shake thoroughly until no more water droplets are visible.
^Dry the filter carefully.
^Push the filter back into the door holder until it clicks into position. Make sure it is the right way round.
Tumble dryer
Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
^Clean the housing and control panel with a mild cleaning agent or soapy water. Clean the drum and other stainless steel parts with a suitable proprietary stainless steel cleaner fol- lowing the manufacturer’s instruc- tions.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents, solvents, scouring pads, glass or general purpose cleaners. These could damage plastic surfaces and other parts. The machine must never be hosed down.
