Miele F 456 i-3 - Manual (Page 44)

The door hinges are set ex-works to
enable the door to be opened wide.
However, if the opening angle of the
door needs to be limited for any reason,
the hinge can be adjusted to
accommodate this.
– For example, if the appliance door
hits an adjacent wall when opened,
the opening angle can be limited to
90°.
^ Place the locking pins supplied for
limiting the door opening into the
hinges from above.
The door opening is now limited to 90°.
– If you would like the appliance door
to be cushioned so that it opens
more softly, the spring tension on the
appliance door can be adjusted.
To do this, use the allen key supplied to
adjust the door hinges.
a To reduce the opening
angle:
^ Turn the allen key clockwise.
This tightens the hinges and makes it
harder to open the door wide open.
b To open the door
fully:
^ Turn the allen key anticlockwise.
