Installation
Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation surface. It is far less prone
to vibration during the spin cycle than
wooden floorboards or a carpeted
surface.
Please note:
The machine must be level and
securely positioned.
To avoid vibrations during spinning,
the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.
If installing on a wooden joist floor:
Install the machine on a plywood
base (at least 59 x 52 x 3 cm). The
base should span several joists and
be bolted to the joists and not only to
the floorboards. Check for the
presence of pipes and cables first.
Tip: If possible, install the machine in a
corner. This is usually the most stable
part of the floor.
Injury can occur if the washing
machine has not been adequately
secured.
During installation, the washing
machine must be secured on a plinth
to be made available on site
(concrete or brick), in order to ensure
it cannot fall or slip.
Secure the washing machine using a
clamp/fastening bracket (MTS floor
mounting kit – available from your
Miele dealer or Miele spare parts
department).

Transporting the washing
machine to its installation site
Danger of injury due to unsecure
lid.
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
protrudes at the back of the
machine.
Carry the washing machine by the
front feet and by the lid where it
protrudes at the back of the
appliance.
