These could damageplastic sufaces and other parts. Thetumble dryer must never be hoseddown. Dry all parts with a soft cloth.25

Cleaning and careCleaning the condenser unitDetergent residue, hair and fine flufffrom the dryer can get through the flufffilters and block the condenser unit.Dust from the room in which the dryer isinstalled can also get into the condenserunit and cause a blockage.Check the condenser unit at leastonce a year. Always check it if theClean out airways indicator light comeson. Clean it if necessary.Removing the condenser unit Turn the lever on the inner coverdownwards to the vertical position. Tilt the cover forwards. Remove it by pulling it diagonally upwards. Open the service panel. Hold the panelsecurely when doing this. Now remove the panel by pulling itdiagonally upwards and place it toone side. Turn the lever on the condenser unitupwards to the vertical position sothat the hook on the lever is no longerin the groove at the bottom of thecondenser unit housing.26

Cleaning and careIf you cannot see any fluff: Replace the condenser unit (see followingpage).If you can see some fluff: Clean the condenser unit as describedbelow.Cleaning the condenser unit When rinsing the condenser unit,make sure you position it asshown in the next two illustrations. Pull the condenser unit out of its housingby the handle.Checking the condenser unit Use a shower head or similar to rinsethe unit out as shown. Hold the condenser unit up to thelight as shown. Check to see if there is any fluff insideit.The arrows in the illustration aboveindicate where to look.27

Cleaning and careReplacing the condenser unit With the handle facing upwards,push the condenser unit back intoposition in its housing. Turn the lever down to the horizontalposition, making sure that the hookon the lever clicks into the groove.When replacing the inner cover aftercleaning, ensure that the rubber sealfits correctly into the groove. Then flush the unit through from thefront. Check the condenser unit again forany visible fluff and if necessary flushit through again until it has all gone. Also make sure the rubber seals areclean.The rubber seals must not be removedand must be free of kinks.Checking and cleaning the condenserunit housing Remove any soiling still visible insidethe housing unit by hand using adamp cloth. Do not try and accessareas you cannot reach by hand! Replace the inner cover making surethe hooks locate correctly. Hold it atan angle and push it gentlydownwards. Then turn the lever upwards into thehorizontal position to lock the cover. Replace the service panel and pressthe upper edge until it clicks into position.It is important to ensure that boththe condenser unit and the coverare correctly positioned and locked,otherwise water may leak from thedryer.28

Problem solving guideWith the help of the following notes, minor faults in the performance of the appliance,some of which may result from incorrect operation, can be put right withoutcontacting the Service Department.Repair work to electrical appliances should only be carried out by a suitablyqualified person in strict accordance with current local and national safetyregulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.Check and fault messagesProblem Possible cause RemedyThe programme stopsand 0 and Finish appearin the display.The buzzer sounds.The Low temperature indicatorlight starts flashingafter the dryer hasbeen switched on and0-§ appears in the display.The programme stopsand Cooling down or Finishflashes in the display.The buzzer sounds.This is not a fault.The electronic unit has recognisedthat there is nolaundry in the drum andcancelled the programme.Drying individual garmentsor items which arealready dry can also causethe programme to becancelled.The electronic systemlock is activated.No obvious cause.– Use the Warm air programme(timed drying)to dry individual items.– To select a new programme,switch thedryer off and on, or– Open the door, placemore laundry in thedrum, then close thedoor.You will need to deactivatethe system lock beforethe dryer can be used(see "Electronic systemlock").– Switch the dryer offand then on again.– Then start the programmeagain.If the programme stopsagain and Cooling downor Finish flashes again,there is a fault. Contactthe Miele Service Department.29

Problem solving guideProblem Possible cause RemedyThe Clean out airwaysindicator lightcomes on.The programmestops.The Clean out airwaysindicator lightcomes on.The buzzer sounds.The Empty containerindicator lightcomes on.The buzzer sounds.This indicator light comeson to warn you thatthe dryer is not workingefficiently.Possible cause: the flufffilters are clogged withfluff or with detergent residues.See above for possiblecauses and their remedies.The condensed watercontainer is full or thereis kink in the drain hose.– Cleaning the fluff filters is usuallyall that is required.However, if the Clean out airwaysindicator light does notgo out after you have cleanedthe filters, then also check allthe possible causes describedunder "The drying processgoes on too long or evenswitches off".To switch off the indicatorlight:– With the dryer switched on,open and close the door.The Clean out airways indicatorlight can be deactivated (see"Programmable functions").To switch off the indicatorlight:– With the dryer switched on,open and close the door.– Then start the programmeagain.– If the Clean out airways indicatorlight comes on again,contact the Miele ServiceDept.– Empty out the condensedwater container.– Check the drain hose.To switch off the indicatorlight:– With the dryer switched on,open and close the door.30

Problem solving guideOther problemsProblem Possible cause RemedyThe dryingprocess goeson too long oreven switchesoff.In some circumstances,the Clean outairways indicatorlight stillcomes on,even thoughthe filters areclean.The laundry isnot sufficientlydry.Please check all the possible causes and switch the dryeroff and then back on again.Ventilation to and from the dryermay be insufficient (e.g. becauseit is installed in a smallroom). This has caused thetemperature in the room to risesharply.The fluff filters are clogged upwith fluff or were still wet whenthey were replaced.The laundry has not been spunsufficiently.The tumble dryer has beenoverloaded.Metallic components, e.g. zipshave prevented the dryer fromregistering the correct moisturelevel in the laundry.Detergent residues, hair andfine fibres can block up thecondenser unit.The vents below the door areblocked.The load consisted of differentfabrics.Open a door or window whilethe tumble dryer is in operationfor increased air flow.– Remove any fluff.– The fluff filters must becompletely dry.Make sure that your laundry isthoroughly spun at the appropriatespin speed.Do not exceed the maximumload for the programme selected.– Open zips next time.If the problem occurs again,dry garments with long zipsusing the Warm air programme(timed drying).Check the condenser unitfrom time to time and clean itif necessary.Remove any objects that areblocking the vents.– Finish drying using theWarm air programme.– Select a different programmenext time.31

Problem solving guideProblem Possible cause RemedyWater leaks from thedryer after the condenserunit has been cleaned.Items made of syntheticfibres are charged withstatic electricity afterdrying.There is a build-up offluff.– The inner cover of thecondenser unit has notbeen locked properlyand/or the condenserunit has not been positionedcorrectly.– Fluff has collected inthe condenser unithousing.Synthetic fibres tend toattract static charge.Fluff is principally the resultof friction when garmentsare being wornand washed. Machinedrying does not affect thelifetime of fabric.– Ensure that the condenserunit is positionedcorrectly and lockthe inner cover.– Check the rubber seals.– Use a cloth to removeany visible fluff from theinside of the condenserunit housing.Static charge can be reducedby adding a fabricconditioner to the final rinsein the washing programmeor a fabric conditionersheet to the loadwhen drying.Fluff is collected by thefluff filters and can be easilyremoved (see "Cleaningand Care").32

Problem solving guideProblem Possible cause RemedySometimes a programmecannot be started andthe corresponding programmeindicator lightdoes not light up.The Start/Stop indicatorlight is flashing slowlyand the display is dark.The tumble dryer fails tostart when switched on.Power cut.The interior drumlighting does not comeon.No obvious cause.The dryer is in Standbymode.This is quite normal andnot indicative of anyfault.No obvious cause.– Switch the dryer off andback on again.– Select one of the programmes.– If it still will not start, thereis a fault. Contact theMiele Service Department.– Not all the programmesare unavailable. Selectone that is available, inthe meantime.See "Programmablefunctions".– Is the dryer switchedon?– Is the plug correctly insertedinto the socketand switched on?– Is the door closed properly?– Has the fuse or circuitbreaker tripped?A programme which was running previously willcontinue automatically when power is restored to thetumble dryer as long as the Cooling down phasehad not been reached.The lighting switches offautomatically (to saveenergy).The lamp needs changing.Switch the dryer off andthen on again.Change the lamp, as describedat the end of thissection.33

Problem solving guideChanging the lampDisconnect the tumble dryer fromthe mains electricity supply. Open the door.You will find the interior lamp cover atthe top of the drum aperture.The lamp specification and maximumwattage is stated on the dataplate and on the lamp cover. Replace the lamp. To close the cover push it upwardsand press it on the left and right untilyou hear it click into position.Ensure that it is fitted into positionsecurely, as any moisture couldcause a short circuit. Insert a suitable tool, such as a widebladed screwdriver, under the sideedge of the lamp cover as illustrated. Apply a little pressure and whilstdoing so turn your wrist in the directionof the arrow to open the cover.The cover will open downwards.The temperature resistant lamp shouldonly be ordered from your Miele Dealeror the Miele Spare Parts Department.34

Protruding lid for holding when movingthe machine (see arrows) Air inlet vent for cooling the condenserunit Mains connection cable External drainage of the condensedwater Accessories for connection to a sinkdrain outletTransporting the machine to itsinstallation siteWhen moving the machine, you canhold it by the lid where it protrudes tothe rear of the dryer. To manoeuvre thedryer out of its packing case to its installationsite you will also need to holdit by the front feet.Washer-dryer stackThe tumble dryer can also be combinedwith a Miele washing machine in awasher-dryer stack. The appropriate"WTV" stacking kit (available to order) tomatch your dryer is required.Stacking kits must only be installedby a suitably qualified fitter.37

Installation and connectionLevelling the machineThe air inlet and outlet vents onthe front and back of the machinemust not be covered as this wouldprevent sufficient ventilation for coolingthe condenser unit.Do not block the gap betweenthe bottom of the tumble dryer andthe floor with plinth facings, deep filecarpet etc. This would hinder a sufficientflow of air to the dryer.The machine must be perfectly level toensure safe and proper operation. The screw feet can be adjusted tocompensate for any unevenness inthe floor.Room ventilationThe air which is taken in when thedryer is in operation is blown out ofthe vents on the front of the machineand warms up the air in the room.It is very important, particulary if theroom is small, to ensure adequateventilation. Opening a window, forexample, will allow more air to enterthe room. Otherwise running timesand energy consumption could beincreased.Before moving the tumble dryeragain (e.g. when moving house)After each use a small quantity of condensedwater will collect in the areaaround the pump. This water can runout if the dryer is tipped up when it isbeing moved. It is a good idea to runthe Cool air programme for approximately1 minute before moving it . Any remainingcondensed water will then befed into the condensed water containeror out through the drain hose.38

Installation and connectionExternal condensed wateroutletGeneral notesWhen drying is in progress, condensedwater is pumped into the condensedwater container through the drain hose atthe back of the dryer. The condensedwater can also be drained off directly ifthe tumble dryer is installed near a sink,drain outlet etc. so that the condensedwater container does not have to beemptied.Drain hose length ............1.50 mMaximum delivery head .......1.50 mMaximum drain hose length ....4.00 mIf the on-site water drainage systemis not fitted with a non-return valveor an appropriate air gap, one mustbe fitted to prevent the risk ofback-flow. (See "Installation conditionsrequiring a non-return valve"). There will be a small amount of residualwater in the drain hose. Have acontainer ready to collect this. Pull the hose off its connection (seearrow). Allow any residual water to run intothe container. Unwind the hose and pull it carefullyout of the holders.The following optional accessories areavailable:– an extension hose– a non-return valve kit for connectionto an external condensed water outlet(includes an extension hose).Maximum delivery head with non-returnvalve fitted: 1.00 mArranging the drain hoseDo not pull on the drain hose anddo not stretch it or allow it to becomekinked as it could get damaged. Position the hose to the right or lefthand side as necessary.Leave the hose in the middle holder toprevent it from becoming kinked inadvertently.39

Installation and connectionExternal drainage via a sink or gully See "Front view" illustration.If you want to drain the water offinto a sink you will need to securethe hose carefully, e.g. by tying it toa tap to make sure it cannot slip duringuse. Otherwise there is a risk ofoverflowing water which could causedamage.Example: Connection to a sink drainoutletThe drain hose with non-return valve fittedcan be connected directly to a suitablesink drain outlet. Use the bow-shaped guide to preventthe drain hose from becomingkinked.Installation conditions requiring anon-return valveCertain installation conditions requirethe fitting of a non-return valvefor external water connection(available as an optional accessory).A non-return valve will prevent therisk of back-flow out of the dryerwhich could cause damage. Remove the following from the backof the dryer at the top:Adapter 1 and hose clip 3 behind it.A non-return valve is required:– If the tumble dryer is connected to asink drain outlet (see the followingsection).– If the tumble dryer is connected to adrainage system already in use byanother appliance, e.g. a dishwasheror washing machine.40

Installation and connection Fit adapter 1 to the sink drain outletusing nut 2.If this nut has a flat disc in it youshould take the disc out first. Attach the end of hose 4 to adapter1. Use a screwdriver to tighten hoseclip 3 up close to the nut.1 Adapter2 Nut3 Hose clip4 End of the hose5 Non-return valve6 Tumble dryer drain hoseNon-return valve 5 has to be fittedwith the arrow pointing in the directionof flow (i.e. towards the sink).Otherwise water will not drain out ofthe appliance. Fit non-return valve 5 to tumble dryerdrain hose 6 (make sure it is fitted inthe correct direction - see arrow onnon-return valve). Secure the non-return valve usinghose clips.41
