Try to rock the machine diagonally to
find which diagonal is firmer. If the di-
agonal from front left to rear right is
less firm, extend the front left leg. Ad-
just only the front left leg until both di-
agonals have the same stiffness.
When finished, turn and lock the
counternut on the front left leg.
All four counternuts must be tight
against the bottom of the machine.
In addition, check to see that the
legs were not inadvertently un-
screwed while tightening the
counternuts. Running a machine
that is not level or whose legs are
not tight may cause damage to both
the machine and its surrounding
area.
If a countertop is placed over the
washer, at least a 6 mm (
1
/
4
")gap
must be left between the top of the
machine and bottom of the counter-
top; and nothing should be within
12 mm (
1
/
2
") of any other side of the
washing machine.
Washer / Dryer Stack
This Miele washing machine can be in-
stalled as part of a washer dryer stack
in combination with a Miele tumble
dryer. For this purpose, a stacking kit is
available from the Miele parts depart-
ment or your Miele dealer.
A washer and dryer should never
be stacked without using the proper
stacking kit. Doing so is extremely
dangerous, as the dryer may vi-
brate off the washing machine dur-
ing use.
