Installation on
concrete plinth
Installation requirements
The washing machine must be installed and commissioned by a
Miele Service technician or by an authorised dealer.

The washing machine must be installed in accordance with applic-
able regulations and standards. Local energy supplier and water au-
thority regulations must also be observed.

This washing machine must only be operated in a room that has
sufficient ventilation and which is frost-free.
This machine should not be installed or operated in any area where
there is a risk of explosion!
General operating conditions
This washing machine is intended only for use in a commercial envir-
onment and must only be operated indoors.
- Ambient temperature: 0-40 °C
- Relative humidity: non-condensing
- Maximum height above sea level of location site: 2000 m
Depending on the nature of the installation site, sound emissions and
vibration may occur.
Tip: Have the installation site inspected and seek the advice of a pro-
fessional in instances where increased noise may cause a nuisance.
Installation
The washing machine must be set up on a level and firm surface with
the minimum stated load bearing capacity (see "Technical data").
The floor load created by the washing machine is concentrated and
transferred to the installation footprint via the machine feet.
Tip: A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface, being
far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floor-
boards or a carpeted surface.
The washing machine requires a gap of at least 50 mm at each side
to allow for movement during operation. To ensure suitable access for
further maintenance and service work, please ensure a minimum dis-
tance of 400 mm is maintained between the back of the machine and
the wall.
Machines with an integrated suds test point must have a gap of at
least 200 mm on the left hand side.
The washing machine can be installed on a concrete plinth if desired.
The concrete materials and the durability of the concrete plinth must
be assessed in accordance with the floor load bearing capacity
given in "Technical data".
