Installation and connection
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 carpeted surface.
Please note:
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 59 x 52 x 3 cm). The base
should span several joists and be
bolted to the joist and not only the
floorboards. Check for the presence
of pipes and cables first.
Tip: If possible, install the machine in a
corner, as this is usually the most stable
part of the floor.
There is the danger of the wash-
ing machine moving about during
spinning and falling off a plinth.
For this reason, if the machine is in-
stalled on a raised plinth (concrete or
brick), it has to be secured against
slippage using an MTS floor/plinth
mounting kit (available from Miele).

Transporting the washing ma-
chine to its installation site
Make sure the fixings at the back
of the lid are secure.
Otherwise there is a danger of the lid
being pulled off when carrying the
machine.
Before carrying the machine check
that the lid is secure where it pro-
trudes at the back of the machine.
Carry the washing machine by the
front feet and the protruding lid at the
back.
Removing the transit bars
To remove the left and right covers
1. Pull on the attached stopper,
2. then use a screwdriver to release the
catches at the top and bottom.
