Cleaning them with water
If there is a great deal of compacted
fluff on any of the filters, they can be
removed and cleaned under hot
running water.
^
To remove the fluff filter from the door
holder see previous page.
^
Grip the holder and push the filter in
the door opening upwards in the
direction of the arrow to remove it. Do
the same on the opposite filter.
^
Rinse the filters under hot, running
water.
^
Then shake the filters until no more
water droplets are visible.
^
Dry the filters thoroughly with care.
,
Do not replace them if they are
damp or wet. Damp or wet filters
could cause operational faults.
^
Push the large filter back into the
door holder until it clicks into position.
Ensure it is facing the correct way.
^
Place the filters back in the door
opening (the left and right filters are
identical) with the finger holders
facing upwards. See illustration.
Cleaning the tumble dryer
Disconnect the machine from the
mains electricity supply.
^
Clean the housing and control panel
with a slightly damp cloth and a mild
detergent or soapy water.
^
The drum and other stainless steel
parts can be cleaned with a suitable
proprietary stainless steel cleaner
following the manufacturer's
instructions.
Do not
use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or
all-purpose cleaners. These could
damage plastic sufaces and other
parts. The machine must never be
hosed down.
^
Dry all parts with a soft cloth.

A microfibre E-Cloth is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department
which is suitable for cleaning
surfaces such as stainless steel,
glass, plastic and chrome without the
use of chemicals. It can be washed
300 times.
