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.
,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.
An installation manual is supplied with
the built-under spacer kit.
The electrical connection should be
near the dryer and accessible at all
times.
Extended machine feet* are
recommended at a built-in height of
more than 33 1/16" (840 mm).
^ Set the extended machine feet on a
height of 1 9/16" (40 mm).
Remove the original machine feet
and replace them with the extended
ones.
One or two filler frames* are
recommended at a niche height of
34 1/4" / 34 13/16" to 36" / 36 5/8"
(870/885 - 915/930 mm).

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.
Do not install the dryer next to a
refrigerator. The warm air exhausting
from the dryer will affect the
thermostat of the refrigerator,
causing it to run continuously.
^ The dryer must be level to ensure
safe and proper operation.
^ The machine can be leveled by
turning the legs clockwise or
counterclockwise as necessary.

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.
