Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation 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
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 unit on a 24" x 24" x 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
machine 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).
Transporting the washing
machine to its installation site
Danger of injury due to unsecure
lid.
The fixings at the back of the lid may
become brittle due to external
circumstances. 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
protrudes at the back of the
appliance.
Carry the washing machine by the

front feet and by the lid where it
