Miele WT 945 S WPS - Manual (Page 57)

Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation surface. It is far less prone
to vibration during the spin cycle than
wooden floorboards or a carpeted
surface.
Please note the following:
^ 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:
^ We recommend the use of a plywood
base at least 59x52x3 cm. The base
should span several joists and be
bolted to the joists and not only to the
floorboards. Check for pipes and
cables beforehand!
The most stable part of the floor is
usually in the corner.
,
If the machine is installed on a
raised plinth, it has to be secured
against slippage during spin using
retaining clips (available from the
Miele Spare Parts Dept). Otherwise
there is the danger of the machine
moving about.
Installation
Lift the machine from its packaging
base and move it to its site. Please note
the following:
^ Do not lift the machine by the drum
door.
,
Ensure that the machine feet and
the floor area are dry to prevent the
machine from slipping during the
spin cycle.
