If the mains cable becomes dam
-
aged it must be replaced with an
Miele original cable.
In the event of a fault or for clean
-
ing 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and the plug is withdrawn, or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the mains fuse is withdrawn.
Operation
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However, it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess-
ment of the installation being 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.
Adequate ventilation is essential,
especially where another appli
-
ance 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 en
-
sure 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 maxi
-
mum permissible. Ventilation can be
maintained by air inlets which cannot
be blocked, in windows, doors and out
-
side wall vents, or by an automatic win
-
dow opening arrangement when the
tumble dryer is switched on. If in doubt,
the advice of a competent builder, or
for gas, a "Corgi" installer (in 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 fire-
places. It would be dangerous if smoke
or exhaust fumes were drawn back into
the room.
Do not install the machine in a
room where the temperature may
drop down to or below freezing. At very
cold temperatures the machine may be
difficult to start.
Always keep the area around the
machine free of dust and fluff.
