Miele T 490 Clothes Dryer User Manual


 
For safety reasons, do not use an ex-
tension cable. There is a danger of
overheating.
In the event of a fault, or for clean-
ing purposes, the machine is only
completely isolated from the electricity
supply when:
the plug is withdrawn, or
it is switched off at the mains, or
the mains fuse is withdrawn.
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.
Use
Do not install the machine in a
room where the temperature may
drop below freezing, as temperatures
below zero could damage the ma-
chine.
A suitable ducting system must be
installed before operating this
vented dryer.
The exhaust air must not be
vented into a chimney or vent flue
which is in use, nor should it be con-
nected to ducting which ventilates
rooms with fireplaces. It would be dan-
gerous if smoke or exhaust fumes were
drawn back into the room.
Always close the door after use to
avoid the danger of:
someone leaning on the door which
could cause the machine to tip;
children climbing into the machine or
hiding objects in it.
There is a danger of fire with fab-
rics which:
contain rubber, foam rubber or rub-
ber-like materials;
have been treated with inflammable
cleaning agents;
have been splashed with hair lac-
quer, hair spray, nail varnish
remover or similar;
also padded items (eg cushions,
jackets) which have been damaged,
as the padding could fall out and
catch fire;
are soiled with grease or oil.
