Built-under a continuous countertop
Steam condenser
To avoid steam damage to the countertop, the protective foil sup-
plied (self adhesive 10 x 23" / 25 x 58 cm) must be applied under-
neath the countertop in the area of the steam condenser.
Protective foil/
countertop pro-
tector
The protective foil supplied protects the countertop from damage
caused by steam when the door is opened. It should be positioned
underneath the countertop above the machine door.
Preventing heat
accumulation
During the drying phase, the hot exhaust air from the wash cabinet is
released into the surrounding environment through the steam con-
denser of the rear of the machine. To prevent heat accumulation and
excessive formation of condensation water, a sufficient air circulation
must be guaranteed.
Keep a 3/8" (10 mm) distance for air exchange between the ma-
chine and the countertop.
If required an air grids should be mounted in the side units.
Securing to the
countertop
To improve stability, the machine must be secured to the countertop
after it has been aligned.
Open the door.
Screw the machine to the continuous countertop through the holes
in the front trim on the left and right.
Please contact Miele Service to secure it at the sides to adjacent
cabinetry.
Priming the circu-
lation pump
The gaps between a built-in machine and adjacent cabinetry
must not be sealed, e.g., with silicone sealant, as this could com-
promise the priming of the circulation pump.
