Warning and

Safety Instructions

Read the operating instructions through be-

fore using this machine for the first time. This

way you will avoid the risk of accidents and

damage to the machine.

The tumble dryer is only intended for dry-

ing fabrics, which have been washed in a

water solution and marked on the manufac-

turer’s wash care label as being suitable for

tumble drying.

There is a danger of fire with the follow-

ing, and on no account should they be

dried in this machine:

–Articles containing foam rubber, rubber or

rubber like materials.

–Articles which have been treated with in-

flammable cleaning agents.

–Articles which have been splashed with

hair lacquer, hair spray, nail varnish re-

mover, etc.

–Kitchen overalls which may be greasy,

fatty or impregnated with other residues.

Do not dry mops, floor cloths etc in this ma-

chine if they contain substances such as

wax or chemical cleaning agents.

Padded or filled fabrics (eg. jackets or

cushions) should not be dried if torn or

damaged. If the filling falls out it could cause

a fire.

Some textiles get very hot during drying

and there may be a risk of high tempera-

tures causing them to ignite in exceptional cir-

cumstances. They should therefore be taken

out of the machine as soon as the programme

has finished and as soon as possible if there

has been a power cut. It is advisable to keep a

fire extinguisher near the machine at all times.

The washing must not be taken from the

dryer before the drying programme has

finished, ie, the cooling down phase must

be completed.

If hot laundry items are stacked or packed

they can be liable to auto-combustion.

Do not let children play in or near the ma-

chine and do not let them play with the

controls or operate it.

Repairs to machines operated by gas,

steam or electricity must only be carried

out by fully trained and qualified service engin-

eers. Unauthorized repairs could be danger-

ous.

The electrical safety of this appliance can

only be guaranteed when continuity is

complete between the appliance and an effec-

tive earthing system which complies with local

and national regulations.

It is most important that this basic safety re-

quirement is regularly tested by a qualified

electrician.

The manufacturer can not be held responsible

for the consequences of an inadequate earth-

ing system.

The machine is only completely isolated

from the electricity supply either when it is

switched off at the wall switch or when the

mains fuses are withdrawn from the distribu-

tion board.

Do not damage, remove or bypass the

safety components, fixtures and control

elements of this machine.

Where there is any damage to the controls

or to the cable insulation the machine

must not be used until it has been repaired.

Faulty components must only be ex-

changed for Miele original spare parts.

Only when these parts are fitted can the

safety standards of the machine be guaran-

teed.

When disposing of an old machine, make

the door lock inoperative and remove the

fluff filter access panel. This should prevent

children at play from being accidentally locked

in and endangering their lives.

Only use the machine if all of the remov-

able outer housing parts are in place. This

way any moving parts or electrical compo-

nents cannot be accessed.

4 «M.-Nr.04832650/02 - GB - »

Warning and

safety instructions

The air inlet opening is situated at the

back of the machine. Under no circum-

stances should this air inlet opening be

blocked. Do not therefore cover the machine

lid of the dryer with any type of covering or

cloth.

Fire and Explosion risk

Never use or store petrol or petroleum

based substances or any easily inflammable

substances near the machine.

Fire risk

Do not use the machine without the built-in

fluff filter in place. If the fluff filter is damaged

it must be replaced immediately.

A build up of fluff could block the air flow heat-

ing and ventilation, and impair the efficiency of

the machine.

Disinfecting and cleaning agents often con-

tain chlorides (salts). If these substances

dry onto the steel surfaces the residual chlo-

rides attack the steel and can cause rusting.

To protect your machine from rust damage we

recommend only using chloride free disinfect-

ing and cleaning agents for washing and disin-

fecting and for cleaning the machine. If you

are not sure about a particular agent contact

the manufacturer for advice.

If you accidentally spill an agent containing

chloride on the machine it should be rinsed off

with water and dried with a soft cloth.

Do not use a high pressure cleaner or

water jet to clean the machine.

Caution If the tumble dryer switches off

prematurely during the drying cycle, with-

out the fault indication light showing, this could

be due to high temperatures in the area of the

motor.

Heater limiters stop the tumble dryer.

In this case please check the seals and locks

on the machine door and the fluff filter.

Check the condition of the air inlet and air out-

let vents. If no damage is evident to any of

the parts checked, the dryer can be re-started.

If the fault occurs again, call the approved

Service engineer.

Safety precautions to take if you smell

gas

-For gas heated dryers only-

(Natural gas usually has no smell of its own. In

the U.K. a smell is added by British Gas for

safety reasons).

If you smell gas you must act immediately.

Extinguish any flames.

Do not create any electrical sparks:

e.g. do not insert or withdraw any electrical

plugs or operate electrical switches such

as lights and door bells.

Do not enter a room with an open light

where there is the smell of gas.

Do not light cigarette lighters or matches.

Do not smoke.

Open all doors and windows.

Close any shut off valves at the gas con-

nection meter or mains supply immediately.

Shut off the gas-valve next to the machine.

If all gas valves are closed but there is still

the smell of gas in the room you should

call you local gas board immediately.

Important: Before signing off any

commissioning, maintenance, conversion

or repair work as finished, all gas pipework

from the manual isolating valve to the

burner nozzles must be checked for sound-

ness.

Pay special attention to the test points on

the multifunction control, the connection

pressure monitor and the burner setting

pressure.

The tests must be carried out with the

burner switched on and switched off.

5«M.-Nr.04832650/02 - GB - »

Warning and

safety instructions Caring for the environment

In the event of a fault or for cleaning and

maintenance the gas control valve must

be shut and the gas emergency control at the

meter shut off.

Accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted when

expressly approved by Miele. If other parts

are used, guarantee, performance and prod-

uct liability claims may be invalidated.

All personnel working with this machine must

be fully trained in all aspects of its use and

safety.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe

place and make them available to current

and future users.

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.

Rather than just throwing these materials

away, please ensure they are offered for

recycling.

Disposal of your old machine

Old machines contain materials which can be

re-cycled. Please contact your local authori-

ties or scrap merchant about potential recy-

cling schemes, before disposing of the

appliance.

Ensure that the machine presents no danger

to children while being stored for disposal.

Programme sequence / check lights

Fault messages

“Programme sequence or check lights”come

on or flash to indicate a fault or interruption.

The "Gas heating" indicator light goes out on

dryers with gas heating.

The messages are:

“Heating”

Fault in the heating system.

Action: Please inform the Service department

“Safety period”

The maximum running time of the drying pro-

gramme was exceeded because the residual

moisture at the start of the programme was

too high.

Action: Where the residual moisture was too

high start the drying programme again.

If the fault message occurs again please call

the Service department.

“Venting”(without function)

“Check fluff filter”

The fluff filter is clogged.

Action: Clean the fluff filter at the end of the

programme.

Note:

The "Drying", "Cool air" and "Anti-crease" indi-

cator lights flash if there is a power cut or if a

programme has been interrupted (e.g. when a

door has been opened and shut). They are

not indicative of a fault. The lights will stop

flashing when the "Start" button is pressed.

This only applies to gas heated machines

“Gas heating”

The "Gas heating" indicator light goes out and

the dryer switches itself off after approx. 7

minutes, when

–The site gas supply to the machine is inter-

rupted (e.g. gas stop valve has not been

opened).

Action: Open the gas stop valve.

–an ignition fault occurs after the start of a

programme.

Action: To restore operation switch the ma-

chine off and then on again, and press the

"Start" button.

–The venting duct is blocked or badly re-

stricted.

Action: Check the venting duct and clean if

necessary.

–The gas connection pressure is too low

(there may be a drop in pressure in the gas

supply network).

Action: Inform your gas supplier.

If the fault is still present after these measures

have been taken, it is essential to call a Miele

authorised service technician to deal with the

fault.

Before using for the first time

Preparation of washing

Before using for the first time

Wipe the inside of the drum with a soft dry

cloth before loading the drum with laundry.

Preparing the laundry

Sort the laundry according to fabric type and

weave in order to achieve an even drying re-

sult.

Not all textiles are suitable for drying in a

tumble dryer. Therefore pay special attention

to the manufacturer’s instructions in the wash

care label.

Significance of symbols:

q= Dry at normal temperature

r= Dry at low temperature

s= Do not tumble dry

Articles made from pure wool and wool mix-

tures tend to become matted and shrink. They

should not be dried in a tumble dryer.

The surface of pure linen is liable to be rough-

ened by tumble drying. Consult the manufac-

turer’s instructions.

Important! Any laundry item with metal

buckles, hooks, eyes, zip tags etc. should be

put into the dryer in a cloth bag (eg. pillow-

case) to protect the drum from scratches and

dents.

Closed zips in garments may bridge the sen-

sor electrodes in the drum ribs causing the dry-

ing process not to end or to end too late. Items

with zips should be dried with the zips open.

Padded or filled fabrics (eg. jackets or cush-

ions) should not be dried if torn or damaged.

If the filling falls out it could cause a fire

Some woven and loopknit materials tend to

shrink to varying extents depending on their

quality. This tendency is exaggerated by over-

drying. Avoid the Extra dry programme for

such fabrics.

Starched washing can be dried in the tumble

dryer. Select the most suitable programme for

ironing by hand or machine.

Sort the laundry according to the level of dry-

ness required. It is not necessary to sort ac-

cording to size.

Duvet covers and pillow cases should be

closed to prevent smaller items rolling up in-

side them.

For greater economy dry a full load, underload-

ing is uneconomical. Do not overload as this

will impair the drying result and the laundry fin-

ish.

Switching on and loading the machine

Switch on the mains switch

(on site).

Press in the"sOn/Off" switch.

Press in the"adoor" button and open the

drum door.

Load the washing

Place the pre-sorted washing loosely into

the drum.

Weights of load (Dry weight)

T 6185 Dryer

Drum volume 185 Litres

Cottons 7.5 kg

Minimum Iron and Delicates 2.5 kg

Make sure any dispenser balls or similar

have been removed from the washing and

are not loaded with it into the tumble dryer.
