Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable in
-
stallation surface for a washing ma
-
chine, being far less prone to vibration
during the spin cycle than wooden
floorboards or a surface with "soft"
properties.
Please note the following points:
^
The machine must be level and se
-
curely 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 a plywood base at least
30 mm thick, 590 x 520 mm wide.
The base should span several joists
and be bolted to the joists, not only to
the floorboards. Check for the pres-
ence of pipes and cables first.
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).
Installation
Lift the machine from its packaging
base and move it to its site. Please
note:
^
Do not lift the machine by the
drum door.
^
Ensure that the machine feet and the
floor are dry to prevent the machine
from slipping during the spin cycle.
Removing the transit fitting
