Installation surface
The best installation surface is a
cement floor. In contrast to wooden
floorboards or other "soft" types of
flooring, cement is less prone to
vibration during the spin cycle(s).
Please note:
^
Make sure the washer is standing
square on stable footing.
^
To avoid vibration during spin cycles,
do not install the washer on soft floor
coverings.
If installing on wooden floorboards:
^ Stand the washer on a plywood base
(at least 59x52x3 cm). The base
should span several joists and will
need to be bolted to the joists, NOT
just into the floorboards.
It is best to install the washer in the
corner of a room. This is typically the
most stable part of the floor.
,
If the washer is being installed
on a raised plinth, it MUST be
secured against slippage using
retaining clips (contact your Miele
dealer or Miele Customer Service).
Otherwise, the washer may fall off
the platform during spinning.
Transporting the washer to the
installation site
To remove the washer from the packing
case to the installation site, hold it by
the front feet of the appliance and the
edge of the lid that protrudes from the
rear of the machine.
,
Make sure the feet and the
installation surface are dry, to
prevent slipping during spinning.
