Connecting the drain hose to a sink drain outlet
The drain hose can be connected securely to a suitable sink drain
outlet.
If required, the hose can be extended to a length of up to 16.4 ft (5 m).
Accessories are available from your Miele dealer or Miele Technical
Service.
For a drain height of more than 3' 3 3/8" (1 m) up to a max. of 1.6 m),
a replacement drain pump is available from Miele Technical Service or
your Miele dealer.
Equipotential bonding and grounding
If necessary, an equipotential bond with good contact connection must
be provided in accordance with all appropriate national and local
regulations.
Material for equipotential bonding and grounding must be provided on
site or using a kit available from Miele Technical Service.
Peak load/Energy management
The machine can be connected to a peak-load or energy
management system using an optional kit.
When the peak-load function is activated, the heating is deactivated.
A message appears in the display to inform you of this.
Liquid dispensing connection
External liquid dispenser pumps with a “container empty” indicator can
be used to dispense liquid detergents.
The dispenser pumps can only be programmed with MDU.
It is particularly important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions
when using a combination of detergents, additives, and special-
purpose products.
Payment system
This washing machine can be equipped with a single-machine
payment system as an optional accessory using an optional kit
(XCI box).
The programming required for connecting a payment system can be
carried out during the initial commissioning process. After initial
commissioning, changes may only be carried out by your Miele dealer
or Miele Technical Service.
Interface
The machine can be retrofitted with an XKM 3200 WL PLT
communication module.
This module can be used as a WiFi or LAN interface.
The LAN interface provided via the module complies with SELV
(Safety Extra Low Voltage) in accordance with EN 60950. Connected
appliances must also comply with SELV. The LAN connection uses a
RJ45 connector in accordance with EIA/TIA 568-B.
Installation
The machine must be installed on a perfectly smooth, level, and firm
surface which is able to withstand the quoted loads.
The floor load created by the machine is concentrated and transferred
to the installation footprint via the machine feet.
The machine should be leveled in both directions with the aid of the
adjustable feet.
Plinth installation
The washing machine can be installed on a machine plinth (open or
box plinth, available as an optional Miele accessory) or on a concrete
plinth to be provided on site.
The quality of the concrete and its strength must be assessed
according to the machine load. Ensure that any raised concrete plinth
is adequately bonded to the floor below.
If the washing machine is installed on a concrete or masonry plinth, it
must be secured using the anchors supplied with the machine.
Otherwise, there is a risk of the washing machine moving about during
spinning and falling off the plinth.
The anchors provided can be used to bolt the machine to the floor by
both front feet. The fasteners provided are intended for use in bolting
the machine to a concrete floor.
Washer-dryer stack
The washing machine can be installed as a washer-dryer stack
together with a Miele Tumble Dryer. A stacking kit (optional
accessory) is required for this.
Installation of the stacking kit must be performed by Miele Technical
Service or an authorized Miele service technician.
