Cleaning and care

The fluff which is created by the drying
process is collected in the fluff filters in
the door and door opening.

Clean the filters after every pro-
gramme to reduce drying time and
save energy.

Open the door.  Grip the filter by the
recessed handle and pull upwards
to remove.
Remove the fluff from:
– the filter in the door
– the filters in the door opening

Do not use any sharp or pointed ob-
jects. 

Remove any fluff from the hollow part
of the door holder through the wide slit
at the bottom. A cleaning brush is
available at extra cost from the Miele
Spare Parts Department.
Push the cleaned filter back into the
door holder and close the door.

If there is a great deal of compacted fluff
on the filters, they can be cleaned under
hot running water. 

These filters should only be removed
for cleaning with water. 

Dry the filters well after rinsing and
put back in place.

Disconnect the machine from the
power supply.
