Installation
Please note the following:
–The machine should never be oper- ated without the front panel firmly in place.
–The electrical outlet and water faucets should be close to the ma- chine and easily accessible.
–The slides provided with the ma- chine will prevent damage to the floor while moving the washer into position.
–For installation under countertops that are 35 7/16" (900 mm) or more above the floor, one or more 2" spacer frames, Part # 1542631, may be required.
–Spacer frames (with installation in- structions) can be purchased from your Miele dealer or the Miele Parts Department.
Matching the control panel to the adjacent washer fronts
The height of the control panel can be adjusted in one of two ways:
by tightening or loosening the nuts to raise or lower the adapter strips as needed, or
by adding or removing adaper strips.
The attached adapter strips can be compressed up to 3/8" (10 mm) by tight- ening the 4 nuts located under the bot- tom adapter strip. If the control panel needs to be shortened by more than 3/8" (10 mm), one or more adapter strips can be removed.
The control panel height can be ex- tended an additional 1" (25 mm) by ad- ding additional adapter strips and ex- tension bolts. These parts are available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Parts Department.
Important
After the final adjustment has been made, cut the plastic bolt flush with the bottom of the lowest adapter.
