where it can be blocked, e.g. behind  
a door.  
,When the machine lid needs to  
be removed to reduce the height of  
the machine, a built under spacer  
kit* is necessary.  
Transporting the dryer to the  
installation site  
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.  
The rear excess end of the lid has a  
handle box for transport.  
^ Use the front dryer feet and the rear  
excess end to transport the dryer  
from the packaging base to the  
installation site.  
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 that 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

refrigerator. The warm air exhausting  
from the dryer will affect the  
thermostat of the refrigerator,  
causing it to run continuously.

installed near a sink or standpipe so  
that the condensed water container  
does not have to be emptied.
