Installation and connection

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface. It is far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.

Please note the following:

^The machine must be level and securely positioned.

^To avoid vibrations during spinning the machine should not be installed on soft floor coverings.

If installing on a wooden joist floor:

^We recommend the use of a plywood base at least 59x52x3 cm. The base should span several joists and be bolted to the joists and not only to the floorboards. Check for pipes and cables beforehand!

The most stable part of the floor is usually in the corner.

,If the machine is installed on a raised plinth, it has to be secured against slippage during spin using retaining clips (available from the Miele Spare Parts Dept). Otherwise there is the danger of the machine moving about.

Installation

Lift the machine from its packaging base and move it to its site. Please note the following:

^Do not lift the machine by the drum door.

,Ensure that the machine feet and the floor area are dry to prevent the machine from slipping during the spin cycle.
