Installation Surface; Transporting The Washing Machine To Its Installation Site - Miele WWD 660 WCS Operating And Installation Instructions

Installation surface

A concrete floor is the most suitable in-
stallation surface for this machine. 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 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:
 Install the unit on a 2 ft. x 2 ft. x
3
1 / " (61 x 61 x 3 cm) plywood base.

Ideally the base should be large
enough to span several joists and
should be anchored to the joists and
not just the floor boards.
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 ma-
chine must be secured on a raised
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 Service).

Danger of injury due to unsecure
lid.
The fixings at the back of the lid may
become brittle due to external cir-
cumstances. There is a danger of the
lid being pulled off when carrying the
appliance.
Before carrying the appliance, check
that the lid is secure where it pro-
trudes at the back of the appliance.
 Carry the washing machine by the
front feet and by the lid where it pro-
trudes at the back of the appliance.
