medium severity
Miele models: Miele heat-pump and condenser dryers do not vent externally; condensate drains to a collection tank or a direct-drain connection. The door-opening lint filter is the primary filter, but there is a secondary condenser fluff filter in the lower plinth that must be cleaned monthly. A full condensate tank will pause the cycle without an explicit error.
