Operating instructions for vented tumble dryer T 7634 To avoid the risk of accidents or damage to the machine it is essential to read these instructions before it is installed and used for the first time. G M.-Nr. 06 737 030 Caring for the environment Disposal of the packing material The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation! Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling. competent person. The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details. Energy saving tips To avoid unnecessarily long drying times and high consumption of energy: ­ Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun before drying. The higher the spin, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying. ­ Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the programme being used (see "Programme chart"). Underloading is uneconomical. Overloading gives a poorer quality of drying and may cause unnecessary creasing. ­ Make sure the room in which the dryer is located is well ventilated. ­ Make sure the fluff filter is clean before using the dryer. ­ Check all parts of the ventilation system on a regular basis and remove any build up of fluff etc. Disposal of your old appliance Electrical and electronic appliances often contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste. Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal. It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a 2 ­ The vent ducting should be as short, straight and smooth as possible to minimise any resistance to the air throughflow. This helps to reduce running times and energy consumption levels.

of accidents and damage to the machine please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, installation, use and maintenance. Keep these 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. Before setting up the machine, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not install or use a damaged machine. Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on the data plate match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock). Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Correct use The tumble dryer is only intended for drying fabrics which have been washed in a water solution, marked on the manufacturer's care label as being suitable for tumble drying. "Dry cleaning kits" for freshening up garments in a tumble dryer are increasingly available on the market. If using, do so at your own risk, and follow the instructions provided on the packaging. Any other applications may be dangerous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation. 5 Warning and Safety instructions The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements. Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved technician. Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out. Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed. If the connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger. In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the machine guarantee. 6 Warning and Safety instructions In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when: ­ it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or ­ it is switched off at the mains, or ­ the mains fuse is withdrawn, or ­ the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable). Adequate ventilation is essential to avoid the danger of asphyxia and toxic fumes where another appliance which also uses the room air (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heater, continuous flow or other water heater) is installed in the same or an adjacent room. To ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given off by these appliances being drawn back into the room, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar is the maximum permissible. ­ Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, in windows, doors and outside wall vents, or by fitting a window contact switch which ensures that the tumble dryer can only be operated when the window is opened wide enough. If in doubt, the advice of a competent builder, or for gas, a "Corgi" registered installer (in the UK) must be sought. The exhaust air must not be vented into a chimney or vent flue which is in use, nor should it be connnected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces. It would be dangerous if smoke or exhaust fumes were drawn back into the room. Do not install the machine in a room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperatures around freezing point the machine may not be able to operate properly. The ambient room temperature should be between +2°C and +35°C. Use This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer. This dryer must not be: ­ connected to a chimney or vent flue which is in use. ­ used without exhaust ducting. ­ used without the fluff filter in place or if the fluff filter is damaged in any way. Check all parts of the extraction system on a regular basis (e.g. wall vent, external grille, bends in the ducting etc.) and make sure they are all free of any hindrance. A build-up of fluff will prevent a free-flow of air through the system. If the dryer is to be connected to an existing ducting system this must be checked for suitability beforehand. 7 Warning and Safety instructions To prevent the risk of fire the following textiles must not be dried in this machine: ­ fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or rubber like materials. ­ items which contain damaged padding or fillings (e.g. pillows, jackets). ­ items which have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents. ­ items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish remover or similar substances. ­ 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 which have not been thoroughly cleaned and which are still soiled with grease or oil, e.g. workwear. Such clothing may require a heavy duty detergent to get them clean. If necessary consult the detergent manufacturer for advice. Do not let anyone sit or lean on the door, as this can cause the machine to tip up. Always close the door after use. This way you will avoid the danger of: ­ children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it. ­ pets or other small animals climbing into it. 8 Safety with children This machine is not a toy. To avoid the risk of injury keep children away from the machine at all times and supervise them whilst you are using it. Do not allow children to play on or near it or to play with its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm. Using accessories Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele. If non-Miele parts are used with this machine, guarantee, performance and product liability claims may be invalidated. Disposal of your old machine Before discarding an old machine, switch it off at the wall socket and unplug it. Render the plug useless and cut off the cable directly behind the machine. This should be done by a competent person. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Please be aware that it is only an estimate! The following factors all affect the estimated time remaining: residual moisture content after spinning; type of fabric; size of load; room temperature; fluctuations in power supply. The electronics continually assess conditions in the machine and adjust the estimated time remaining for a more accurate reading. Because of this, the time displayed can alter during the course of a programme. In the same way, the Woollens handcare and Smoothing programmes can finish earlier than expected if a certain temperature is reached. This can happen with particularly fine fabrics, very small loads or if items were partly dry beforehand. Delay start The delay start time selected will appear in the display. After the Start/Stop button has been pressed, the delay start time will start counting down. Once the delay start time has elapsed, the programme will begin and the estimated programme duration will appear in the display. Programmable functions The programmable functions can be used to tailor drying programmes to suit your individual requirements. In programming mode, the display will show the function selected. 10 Notes on laundry care Care symbols Before drying check the drying symbol on the care label. If there are no symbols, dry at your own risk! q . . . . . . . . . Dry at normal temperature r. . . . . . . . . . . . Dry at low temperature s . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Do not tumble dry ­ Down-filled garments have linings which have a tendency to shrink, depending on the quality of the item. They can be partially dried using the Smoothing programme. ­ Pure linen should only be machine dried if specified as suitable by the manufacturer on the care label, as the surface of the fabric may otherwise become rough. They can be partially dried using the Smoothing programme. ­ Loopknit garments (e.g. T-shirts and underwear) tend to shrink depending on their quality. Do not over-dry these textiles. When purchasing these garments it is advisable to take their shrinkage properties into account. ­ For garments made from very fine weave fibres, such as shirts or blouses, only use the Shirts or Delicates programme to avoid creasing. If in doubt, reduce the load or use the Smoothing programme. ­ Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used. ­ New dark coloured garments should be washed and dried separately from light coloured garments to avoid the danger of colours running and discolouring other garments or even plastic components in the machine. Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa. Tips on drying ­ Always observe the maximum recommended loads given in the "Programme chart". Never overload the drum. Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry, give a disappointing drying result and cause more creasing. ­ Do not put soaking wet items into the tumble dryer. Spin them thoroughly after washing using the appropriate spin speed. ­ For delicates and fabrics with the following care label r select Low temperature. ­ Use the Automatic programme for drying mixed loads of cottons and minimum iron fabrics. ­ Open jackets so that they can dry evenly. ­ Woollens and wool blends tend to become matted and shrink if dried in a tumble dryer. They can, however, be partially dried using the Woollens handcare programme. 11 How to dry correctly Brief instructions The headings numbered (A, B, C ...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide to using your machine. A Sort the laundry To ensure an even drying result separate out the washed laundry and sort it according to: . . . . . the drying level required . . . the type of fibre or weave . . size . . the moisture content after spinning. Do not overload the drum. See the "Programme chart" for recommended loads for each programme. Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and give a disappointing drying result. ^ Before closing the door make sure the fluff filter is correctly positioned. C Load the tumble dryer ^ Press the Door button to open the door. ^ Load the laundry loosely into the drum. ,Make sure that objects e.g. detergent dispensing balls have been removed from the laundry. They could melt, and cause damage to the dryer or the laundry. ­ Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact. ­ Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from being trapped inside them. ­ Fasten hooks and eyes etc. ­ Tie fabric belts and apron strings. ­ Sew in or remove underwiring from bras. B Turn on the tumble dryer ^ Switch the dryer on by pressing the I-On/0-Off button in. The tumble dryer may be switched on after loading, saving energy as the light will not come on. Check the laundry is right inside the drum so that it cannot get trapped or damaged when the door is shut. ^ Shut the door either with a gentle swing, or lean against it and push it shut. 12 How to dry correctly D Select a programme Important: Please note that the programme duration shown in the display will vary according to the programme selected (see "Programme duration / Estimated time remaining").

The flashing indicates that a programme can be started. ^ Press the Start/Stop button. The Start/Stop button will now light up constantly. G Remove the laundry when the programme has finished 0 and Finish will appear in the display to indicate that the programme has finished. The buzzer (if selected) will sound at intervals. The drum will continue to rotate at intervals to prevent laundry creasing, if you do not wish to remove it immediately (anti-crease). The anti-crease phase lasts for an hour. There is no anti-crease phase at the end of the Woollens handcare programme. ^ Press the Door button. ^ Open the door. ^ Remove the laundry. Check that all items have been removed from the drum. If items are left in the dryer, they could be damaged by overdrying when the dryer is next used. If the dryer is switched on at the mains and the door is opened, the drum lighting will come on. It will go out a few minutes later to save energy. ^ Switch the dryer off by pressing the l-On/0-Off button. ^ After every cycle, remove the fluff from the fluff filter in the door. ^ Close the door. Drying will appear in the display and the time remaining will start counting down. Memory Settings selected for a programme can be stored in memory, so that they are automatically selected when this programme is chosen again. See "Programmable functions - Memory function". Before the end of a programme There is a cooling down phase at the end of the drying sequence (Cooling down will light up in the display). The programme will not finish until the cooling down phase has been completed. There is no cooling down phase at the end of the following programmes: Woollens handcare, Smoothing. 14 Additional options Low temperature For drying delicates and fabrics with the r symbol on the care label at a lower temperature. ­ For all delicate or minimum iron fabrics with the r symbol on the care label (e.g. acrylic garments). ­ The programme duration is longer. ­ On some programmes Low temperature is a standard part of the programme and so cannot be deselected. ­ If you keep the Delay start button pressed in, the time will continue to increase up to 24^. To begin delay start ^ Press the Start/Stop button. ­ The Delay start indicator light will light up constantly. The delay start time counts down towards the start of the programme as follows: ­ more than 10^ by the hour ­ less than 10^ in minutes The drum will turn briefly every hour to help prevent creasing. While the delay start time is counting down, you can still add laundry to the drum: ^ Switch the dryer off. ^ Open the door and add the laundry. ^ Close the door and switch the dryer back on again.
