INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation surface
Experience has shown that a concrete
floor is the most suitable surface for a
washing machine. Concrete floors are
less prone to vibration during the spin
cycle than wooden floors.
Please note the following points:
^ The machine must be level and se-
curely positioned.
^ To avoid vibration during spinning,
the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.
^ If installation must be on a wooden
joist floor, we recommend the use of
a plywood base at least 1

600mm X 600mm). Ideally the base
should be large enough to span sev-
eral joists and should be anchored to
the joists and not just the floorboards.
^ As a general rule, we recommend the
installation of the machine (or
washer/dryer stack) in the corner of a
room where the stability of the floor is
greatest.
^ If the machine is installed on a raised
platform, it should be secured using
retaining clips (available from the
Miele Technical Service Dept.). If in-
stalled on a masonary or concrete
base, the base should be provided
