Installation
Installation site
,Make sure the dryer door can be opened without hindrance after installation.
Transporting the machine to its installation site
When moving the machine you can hold it by the lid where it protrudes to the rear of the dryer.
To manoeuvre the dryer out of its packing case to its installation site you will also need to hold it by the front feet.
Building under a continous worktop / in a row of kitchen units
The dryer should not be installed next to a refrigerator or freezer. The warm air expelled from the rear of the dryer would increase the temperature around the refrigerator's/freezer's heat exchanger causing the compressor to run continuously.
If it is not possible to install the dryer anywhere else, then the refrigerator/freezer must be sealed off from the dryer.
If you wish to push your machine under a worktop and there is space to do this without removing the lid, a building under kit is not necessary. Otherwise the building under kit is essential.
,The building under kit* must be fitted by a suitably qualified person. The machine lid is replaced by a coverplate. It is essential that the coverplate is fitted to ensure electrical safety.
The building under kit is supplied with its own installation instructions.
N.B. When built under running times may be longer.
–The electrical socket must be located in an accessible position near the machine.
With niche heights of:
–840 mm, longer screw feet* are required.
–870/885 mm - 915/930 mm, one or two height adjustment frames* are required.
*Available as an optional accessory from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department.
Replacing the lid
If the lid has been removed in order to fit a cover plate, ensure that, if the lid is replaced, it fits securely into the rear holders. Otherwise, it is not properly secure for transport.
