Miele T 5206 Operating And Installation Instructions page 5

In the event of a fault or for clean-
ing purposes, the machine is only
completely isolated from the electricity
supply either when:
– it is switched off at the mains or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn.
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 being given off by these appli-
ances being drawn back into the room,
an underpressure of 4 Pa 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 any doubt, the advice of a compe-
tent builder, or for gas, a "Corgi" regis-
tered installer (in the UK) must be
sought.
Vented dryers must be installed
with a suitable venting system. If
the machine is not correctly ducted it
will draw damp exhaust air back into
the drum, increasing running time and
energy consumption quite consider-
ably. If moist air is passed back into the
room this may lead to long-term dam-
age of walls.
Warning and Safety Instructions
The exhaust air must not be vented
into a chimney or vent flue which is
in use. Neither should it be connected
to ducting which ventilates rooms with
fireplaces. It would be dangerous if
smoke or exhaust fumes were drawn
back into the room.
Always close the door after use.
This way you will avoid the danger
of:
– anyone sitting or leaning on the door,
which can cause the machine to tip
up.
– children climbing onto or into the
dryer or hiding things in it.
Do not install the machine in a
room where the temperature may
drop below freezing. At very cold tem-
peratures the machine may be difficult
to start. Laundry will not dry, and the
sequence indicator light ~ r
Anticrease/End will flash to indicate a
problem.
