Warning and Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully before using this appliance for the first time. They contain impor- tant information about the safety, use and maintenance of the appliance. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appli- ance.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.
Correct use
The tumble dryer is only intended for drying fabrics which have been
washed in a water solution, marked on the manufacturer’s wash care label as being suitable for tumble drying.
Any other applications may be danger- ous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.
Technical safety
Before setting up the machine check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not install or use a dam- aged machine.
Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (fusing, voltage and fre- quency) matches the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a quali- fied electrician.
The electrical safety of this ma- chine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is regularly tested by a qualified electri- cian. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec- tric shock).
Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an ex-
tension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the machine (e.g. danger or overheating).
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in un- foreseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept re- sponsibility. Repairs should only be un- dertaken by a Miele approved engi- neer.
Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.
Faulty components must only be exchanged for Miele original spare
parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the ma- chine be guaranteed.
If the appliance is supplied from a cord extension set or electrical por-
table outlet device the cord extension set or electrical portable outlet device should be positioned so it is not subject to splashing or ingress of moisture.
