Installation Instructions To prevent accidents and machine damage read these instructions before installation or use.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS , WARNING - Risk of Fire ~ To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions. ~ Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer. ~ WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Washer / Dryer Stack The tumble dryer can also be placed on top of a Miele washing machine for a stacked installation. An appropriate stacking kit is required. The stacking kit is available from your Miele dealer or the Miele Technical Service Department. ,Installation of the stacking kit must be performed by a Miele authorized technician. Height of a stacked installation 5’ 6 3/8" (168.
Electrical connection GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Installation Front view a Power cord with plug f Four height adjustable feet b Condensed water container g Optional drain hose: An alternative to using the condensed water container is to drain condensed water into a sink, standpipe or gully.
Installation Rear view Installation site ,Do not install the dryer in an area where it can be blocked, e.g. behind a door. ,This appliance is not intended to be mounted in a wall or other vertical surface of a building or cabinet. The unit is allowed for built-in application.
Installation Installation beneath a counter ,When the machine lid needs to be removed to reduce the height of the machine, a built-under spacer kit* is necessary. It must be installed by a Miele Service Technician. The cover plate of the built-under kit replaces the appliance lid and ensures electrical safety. Reinstallation of the machine lid When reinstalling the appliance lid, check the firm fit of the cover at the rear bracket for a safe transport of the dryer.
Installation Installation tips Level the dryer An airflow gap of 3/8" (10 mm) must be provided between the machine and the floor. This airflow gap must not be blocked by a toe-kick or thick piled carpets. Sufficient venting of the installation site, e.g. by opening a window or door, is essential for the dryer's operation. Otherwise drying times and energy usage may increase. Do not install the dryer next to a refrigerator.
Installation External water drain When drying is in progress, condensed water is pumped into the condensed water container through the drain hose at the back of the dryer. The condensed water can also be drained directly if the machine is installed near a sink or a standpipe so that the condensed water container does not have to be emptied.
