A concrete or reinforced floor is the
most suitable surface for the washer.
These types of floors are less prone to
vibration during the spin cycle.

Note:

– The machine must be leveled and

securely positioned.

– To avoid vibration while spinning, the

machine should not be installed on
soft floor coverings.

If the installation must be performed on
a wooden floor:

(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, not
just the floor boards.

It is best to install the washer in the
corner of a room, where the stability of
the floor is at its greatest.

If the machine is installed on a

raised platform, it should be secured
with retaining clips. These clips are
available from your dealer or Miele.
If installed on a masonry or concrete
base, the base should have a

required to prevent the washer from

spin cycle.
