Warranty Information
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
- Sorting Laundry: Separate laundry by drying level, fabric type, size, and moisture content after spinning. Remove objects from pockets, check seams, fasten zippers and ties, and sew in or remove underwiring from bras.
- Turning on the Dryer: Press the I-On/0-Off button.
- Loading the Dryer: Open the door, load laundry loosely, ensure the fluff filter is in place, and close the door firmly.
- Selecting a Programme: Choose from programs like Automatic, Cottons, Minimum iron/Delicates, Shirts, Denim, Smoothing, or Warm air using the programme selection buttons. Select the desired drying level (e.g., Extra dry, Normal, Hand iron).
- Extra Options: Select options like Low temperature, Short, Cool air, or Anti-crease as needed.
- Buzzer and Delay Start: Optionally activate the buzzer or set a delay start time (up to 24 hours).
- Starting the Programme: Press the Start/Stop button. The programme duration will appear in the display, and sequence indicator lights will show the drying stage.
- During the Programme: The estimated time remaining may vary. You can add or remove laundry by switching the dryer off and on again.
- Cooling Down Phase: Most programmes include a cooling down phase to make garments easier to handle and prevent self-ignition.
- Removing Laundry: Once the Anti-crease/Finish indicator light comes on, press the Door button, open the door, and remove the laundry. Check that all items are removed.
- After Use: Switch off the dryer, clean fluff filters, close the door, and empty the condensed water container if not using external drainage.
