The washing machine must be installed and commissioned by a Miele Service technician or by an authorised dealer.
- The washing machine must be installed in accordance with applic- able regulations and standards. Local energy supplier and water authority regulations must also be observed.
- This washing machine must only be operated in a room that has sufficient ventilation and which is frost-free.
This machine should not be installed or operated in any area where there is a risk of explosion!
General operating conditions
This washing machine is intended only for use in a commercial envir-onment and must only be operated indoors.
- Ambient temperature: 0-40 °C
- Relative humidity: non-condensing
- Maximum height above sea level of location site: 2000 m
Depending on the nature of the installation site, sound emissions and
vibration may occur.
Tip: Have the installation site inspected and seek the advice of a
professional
in instances where increased noise may cause a nuisance.
Transportation and site access
- The machine must not be moved without the transit bars in place.
- Keep the transit bars in a safe place. They must be refitted if the machine is to be moved again (e.g. when relocating the machine).
Installation notes
Installation
-
Transport the washing machine to its installation site using a suitable pallet truck and remove the transport packaging.
-
The washing machine must be set up on a completely level, horizontal and firm surface with the minimum stated load bearing capacity (see “Technical data”).
-
Tip: A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface. It is far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.
-
The floor load created by the washing machine is the load exerted by the area of the machine in contact with and transferred to the installation surface.
-
The washing machine requires a gap of at least 50 mm on each side to allow for movement during operation. Please ensure a minimum distance of 400 mm is maintained between the rear of the appliance and the rear wall.
-
The washing machine must not be installed on a carpeted floor.
-
The feet of the washing machine must be secured to the fastening
points on the floor using the fittings supplied. -
The fittings supplied are for bolting the machine to a concrete floor. If other floor types are present at the installation site, the fastening material must be ordered by the customer.
Installation on concrete plinth
The washing machine can be installed on a concrete plinth if desired.
The concrete materials and the durability of the concrete plinth must be
assessed in accordance with the floor load bearing capacity given in
“Technical data”.
- To guarantee the stability of the washing machine, make sure that the concrete plinth is sufficiently stable on the floor and that it is capable of withstanding any burden or force from the washing machine.
- The washing machine must be secured to the concrete plinth using the fixtures and fastenings supplied.
- The washing machine must be secured to the plinth immediately after installation!
There is a risk of the washing machine falling off a raised plinth during a spin cycle if it is not secured.
Levelling the machine
- Align the washing machine vertically and horizontally using the adjustable feet and a spirit level.
The washing machine must stand evenly and horizontally on all four feet to ensure trouble-free and energy-efficient operation. Otherwise the water and energy consumption increases and the washing machine might move around.
- After aligning the machine, tighten the lock nuts by turning them in a counterclockwise direction with a spanner. This will prevent the feet from adjusting themselves.
Electrical connection
The electrical connection must only be carried out by a qualified electrician who must ensure that all electrical work is carried out in accordance with applicable electrical regulations and standards (BS 7671 in the UK).
- This washing machine must be connected to an electrical mains supply that complies with local and national regulations. Please also observe your insurance and energy supplier’s regulations as well as any health and safety at work regulations.
- The required voltage, connected load and fusing rating can be found on the data plate on the washing machine. Before connecting the machine to the power supply, please ensure that the mains supply voltage complies with the values given on the data plate.
Connection to a supply voltage other than the one quoted on the data plate can
lead to functional faults and damage the washing machine!
If more than one voltage is quoted on the data plate, the washing machine can
be converted for connection to the voltages stated.
- Conversion to a different voltage must only be carried out by a Miele Service engineer or by an authorised Service Partner. The wiring instructions given on the wiring diagram must be followed.
Tip: We recommend connection to the power supply via a suitably rated plug and
socket which must be easily accessible for servicing and maintenance work
after the machine has been installed. An electrical safety test must be
carried out after installation and after any service work.
The machine should be connected with a suitably rated plug and socket in
accordance with IEC 60309-1 or hard wired. For a hard wired connection an all-
pole isolation device must be installed.V
For hard-wired machines connection should be made via a suitable mains switch
with all-pole isolation which, when in the off position, ensures a 3 mm gap
between all open contacts. These include circuit breakers, fuses and relays
(IEC/EN 60947).
If the mains supply cannot be permanently disconnected, the isolator switch (including plug and socket) must be safeguarded against being switched on either unintentionally or without authorisation.
-
If it is necessary to install a residual current device (RCD) in accord ance with local regulations, a residual current device type B (sensitive to universal current) must be used.
An existing type A residual current device (RCD) must be exchanged for a type B RCD. -
If local and national installation specifications require equipotential bonding, good galvanic contact must be guaranteed. Equipotential bonding must have an earth current rating > 10 mA.
Water connection
For compliance to Regulation 4 of the water regulations guide please fit the supplied double check valves to the on-site water supplies for each inlet hose used. The non-return valve prevents water from the water inlet hose from flowing back into the on-site drinking water supply.
Non-return valves are supplied.
The flow pressure must amount to a minimum of 100 kPa and must not exceed 1000
kPa. If the flow pressure is higher than 1000 kPa, a pressure reducing valve
must be used.
The machine must be connected to the water supply using the inlethoses
provided.
- The connection points are subject to water supply pressure.
Turn on the stopcock slowly and check for leaks. Correct the position of the seal and screw thread if appropriate.
Cold water connection
- For the cold water connection one stopcock each with a ¾” screw thread is required.
- If a water connection is not available, only a qualified installer may connect the washing machine to the mains water supply.
- The water inlet hose for cold water is not suitable for connection to a hot water supply.
- In the event that hot water is not available on site, a cold water supply must be used for the hot water connection.
- The required amount of hot water should be added to the cold water volume.
Alternatively, the hot water connection should be blocked using the blind stopper supplied with the machine and the machine controls should be set to cold water intake by the service technician.
Hot water connection
The same connection requirements as for cold water also apply to hot water up
to 70 °C.
A suitable connection hose with a threaded union is supplied with the machine.
The machine with hot water connection also requires a cold water connection.
Drain valve (depending on model)
- In the case of washing machines with a drain valve, a motorised valve is used to drain the machine. An HT DN 70 angle connector can be used for draining the machine directly into the waste water system (without a siphon) or into an on-site floor drain (with odour
- trap).
- Thanks to an improved closing mechanism and a larger cross-section, even the coarsest of soiling does not leave any deposits or debris behind which could result in blockages. The drain valve can also be operated manually to allow the suds container to be emptied in the event of a power outage.
- A vented drainage system is vital for unimpeded drainage.
- If several machines are connected to a single drain pipe, this should be sufficiently large to allow all machines to drain simultaneously.
- The appropriate Miele installation kit (mat. no.: 05 238 090) is available to order from the Miele Customer Service Department or your Miele dealer for venting an HT DN 70 pipe.
- If the slope for drainage is extremely steep, the piping must be vented to prevent formation of a vacuum in the washing machine’s drainage system.
- Slow or obstructed drainage or a backup of water in the washing machine drum as a result of undersized pipework can result in faults occurring during programmes, which will result in fault messages appearing in the display.
- Outflowing suds can be as hot as 95 °C. Danger of burning! Avoid direct contact.
Drain pump (depending on model)
In machines with drain pump, the suds are drained through a drain pump with a
delivery head of max. 1 m.
The drain hose must be installed free of kinks for the suds to drain freely.
There are the following options for draining the machine:
- Drain hose connected to a plastic drain pipe with a rubber sleeve (there is no need to use a siphon)
- Drain hose connected securely to a sink with a plastic nipple
- Connected securely to a floor drain (gully)
If required, the hose can be extended to a length of up to 5 m. The
corresponding accessories are available from the Miele Customer Service
Department or your Miele dealer.
For a drain height of more than 1 m, a replacement drain pump for a delivery
head of max. 1.8 m is available from the Miele Customer Service Department or
from your Miele dealer.
Water connection for variants with reduced heater rating (RH)
The appliance should be connected to cold and hot water supplies. A minimum
hot water temperature of 80 °C is recommended in order to use all programmes.
Lower temperatures may result in longer programme running times or cause
programmes to be interrupted. Water inlet temperatures below 60 °C are not
permitted, as they can lead to significantly longer programme running times.
Water connection for variants with external heating
(EH)
The appliance should be connected to cold and hot water supplies. A minimum
hot water temperature of 80 °C is recommended. The use of disinfection
programmes is not possible due to the absence of additional
heating. The permissible wash temperatures are determined by the inlet
temperature.
Dispenser connection
The machine is equipped with an interface for external dispenser systems.
Adapters for pre-mixed suds or liquid detergent from external dispenser
systems for up to 6 connections should be obtained from the Miele Customer
Service Department and connected.
A separate Connector Box is required for controlling the dispensing pumps electrically. This must be installed by your Miele dealer or the Miele Customer Service Department. It is particularly important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using a combination of cleaning agents and special application products.
Optional accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts and accessories with this machine.
Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the
warranty, and Miele cannot accept liability.
Connector Box The Connector Box allows external hardware from Miele and other
suppliers to be connected to the Miele Professional washing machine.
The Connector Box is supplied with mains voltage by the Miele Professional
washing machine.
The separately available set consists of the Connector Box and fasteners for
installation on the machine or on the wall.
Peak load / energy management
- A peak load or energy management system can be connected via the Connector Box.
- The energy management system monitors the energy consumption of a system and deactivates individual pieces of equipment temporarily by means of the peak-load negotiation in order to ensure that certain total load limits are not exceeded.
- When the peak-load function is activated, the heating is deactivated and the programme stopped. A message appears in the display to inform you of this.
- The programme is resumed automatically when the peak-load function finishes.
Liquid dispensing connection
External liquid dispensing pumps with a “container empty” indicator and/or
flowmeter can be used via the Connector Box to dispense liquid detergents.
- It is particularly important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions
- when using a combination of cleaning agents and special application products.
- Payment device The washing machine can be fitted with a single-machine payment system as an optional accessory via the Connector 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 the Miele Customer Service Department.
- Please note that the status of the Connector Box must be set to “on” in the supervisor level as required.
WiFi/LAN interface
-
The washing machine is equipped with a WiFi/LAN interface for exchanging data.
The data interface provided on the LAN connection complies with SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) in accordance with EN 60950. The -
LAN connection uses a RJ45 connector in accordance with EIA/ TIA 568-B.
-
Connected machines must also comply with SELV.
Plinth
(APWM037/038/ 039)
- The washing machine can be installed on a plinth (open or box plinth, available as an optional Miele accessory).
- Elevating the washing machine gives a better ergonomic working position when loading or unloading. It also simplifies the installation of a drain connection.
The washing machine must be secured to the plinth immediately after
installation. The plinth must be secured to the floor.
There is a risk of the washing machine falling off a raised plinth during a
spin cycle if it is not secured.
