Installation
These fully integrated dishwashers are
specially designed for building into a
fitted kitchen.
– The front of the dishwasher is de-
signed to take a front panel to match
the surrounding kitchen furniture.
– The plinth area of the dishwasher is
normally covered with a plinth run to
match the kitchen furniture, or another facia. The separate plinth facia
can be height adjusted to suit the kitchen. The plinth return is adjustable.
Instructions for installing the dishwasher are described in the following
sections.
To ensure stability, these dishwashers must only be installed
under a continuous worktop which
must be securely screwed to neighbouring units.
The dishwasher must not be installed under a hob. The high
radiant temperatures which are
sometimes generated by a hob
could damage the dishwasher.

Installation
1.Fit worktop protection
A stainless steel “niro” cover plate is
supplied with the machine to protect
the underside of the worktop against
steam rising from the machine.
The cover plate is supplied as stand-
ard.
Squeeze sealant from the tube sup-
b into the angle of the “niro”
plied
plate along its length.
2.Building the dishwasher
into a niche
Connection to water and drainage
should be sited beside and not behind
the dishwasher for accessibility.
Connections are usually made in the
area under the sink. Many kitchen unit
manufacturers provide a cutout in the
base of the sink base unit for the hoses
to be fed through.
If the base unit has no opening and if
there is not an opening through the
plinth area for connections, one must
be cut.
Suggested dimensions: 60 x 110 mm.
Align the “niro” plate c to the front
edge of the worktop - see illustration and then use the tacks supplied to
nail the “niro” plate to the underside
of the worktop.
Worktops with wood or laminate
edging:
Nail the tacks through the holes
further back from the edge.

Installation
Slides
The slides make installation of the dishwasher easier and protect the floor
from possible damage when moving
the appliance into and out of the recess. They are also used for adjusting
the height of the rear screw feet.
Adjust the height manually before
installing the dishwasher.
Leave a space of approx. 5 mm below
the worktop to allow the dishwasher
to be pushed back easily into the recess. Make sure that the dishwasher
stands level.
Press the slides - with the ratchet at
the rear - under the screw feet.
Securing pieces
To ensure stability, the dishwasher must
be fixed securely to the worktop (step 5).
Two securing pieces are supplied for
this purpose.
Fit the securing pieces into the slots
on both the left and right hand sides.
Granite and marble worktops:
With these worktops the dishwasher
must be securely screwed to neighbouring units on the right and left hand
sides. For this you will require two
special fixing brackets (available as a
special accessory at extra cost).
The angle support for the water drainage hose at the rear of the dishwasher
can be turned.
Turn the angle support in the direction of the on-site connection for the
drainage hose.

3.Fitting the matching door
front
The front of the dishwasher needs to
be fitted with a base unit front to match
the kitchen furniture. This door front
may be a single panel or a two-piece
panel, divided to give a dummy drawer
facia line.
Dimensions:
Width:
Depending on the width of your dishwasher, a base unit front of either 45 cm
or 60 cm width.
Total height:
Height of a full base unit front, or with a
two-piece panel, height of shorter unit
front plus gap plus dummy drawer
facia.
Thickness:
18 mm in the areas where the fixing
bracket is screwed on.
A fixing bracket must be fitted to the
rear of the door front panel. This is then
used for attaching the door front panel
to the door outer panel on the machine.
A door handle must be fitted to the
front of the door front before the fixing
bracket is fitted.
Position the door handle to match
others in the kitchen. It should be at
drawer height in the centre of the panel.
The weight of the door front will affect
the functioning of the door springs.
After fitting it is essential for this to be
checked out. See Step 6.
When the dishwasher is delivered the
fixing bracket is secured to the dishwasher. To remove it:
Loosen the fixing screws (see arrow)
on each side of the machine outer
door panel.
Push the fixing bracket upwards off
the sprung bolts and remove.
The door handle fixing screws must
be countersunk, to avoid any protrusions at the rear of the door front.

Page 10
Installation
Opening the door when the fixing
bracket has been taken off:
Insert your finger into the T-shaped
opening in the door opener and pull
the door open.
Dimension “X“ must be calculated and
noted before attaching the fixing
bracket.
Dimension “X“ is the distance shown
on the illustration between the drill hole
in the machine outer door panel and
the lower edge of the neighbouring unit
door.
Fitting the fixing bracket to a door front
Lay the door front down with the rear
side facing upwards. Draw a
line down the middle of the door
front rear to use as a guide line.
Mark dimension “X“ onto the rear of
the door front, up from the
edge.
With two-piece panels:
If the two-piece panel is joined by nonflush fixings these must be removed.
The fixing bracket supplied with the
dishwasher can be used to secure
both pieces.
Make sure that the combined height
worked out is retained.

Page 12
Installation
Fitting the door front
The door front is correctly fitted when:
– the lower lugs on the fixing bracket
rest firmly in the lower slits of the
dishwasher outer door panel,
– the prongs of the fixing bracket lie
on the sprung bolts in the upper corners of the dishwasher door,
– the recess in the middle of the fixing
bracket fits securely in the T-shaped
opening in the door opener.
Open the dishwasher door slightly.
Hang the door front so that the lower
lugs of the fixing bracket fit into the
lower slits of the dishwasher outer
door panel, and draw slightly upwards.
12
Slide the prongs of the fixing bracket
over the sprung bolts and press into
place.
Press the front panel against the
door and downwards, so that the
prongs grip behind the sprung bolts.
Page 13
Installation
4. Adjusting the door front
When fitted the door front can be adjusted up to a maximum of 2 mm upwards or downwards to match adjoining unit fronts.
Open the dishwasher door slightly.
With the door open, press the front
panel on one side against the door
outer panel.
Close the dishwasher door.
Check the alignment of the door
panel again.
If it is not correctly aligned you may
need to loosen the screws and readjust it to the correct alignment.
Once satisfied that the alignment is correct:
Open the dishwasher door.
Tighten all fixing screws (upper
screws, TORX T20) at the sides.
Plug fixing screw and height adjust-
ment screw recesses with the plastic
stoppers supplied.
Adjust the height of the door front on
this side using the lower recessed
adjusting screw (TORX T20).
higher = turn clockwise
lower = turn anti-clockwise
Then secure the door front on this
side by tightening the upper recessed fixing screw (TORX T20) at
the side of the machine door outer
panel.
Repeat the process on the other side
of the door.
13
Page 14
Installation
5. Securing the dishwasher
Open the dishwasher door.
The holes in the securing pieces
must line up with the long holes in
the “niro” steel cover plate. If this is
not the case, adjust the position of
the dishwasher in the niche (ensure
that the dishwasher is the same distance from the neighbouring kitchen
units on the right and left hand
sides and line the dishwasher door
front up with neighbouring door
fronts).
6.Adjusting the door springs
The door springs are correctly adjusted
when the door remains stationary when
left open at 45 °.
If the door drops down, then the door
springs need to be tightened.
If it closes then the springs need to be
released.
The adjusting screw is located in the
upper front strip at the left hand side of
the dishwasher.
Half open the dishwasher door.
The door springs are easier to adjust
when the door is only half open than
when it is fully open.
Screw the countersunk screws (3.9 x
22) supplied upwards through the securing pieces on the left and right
hand sides into the work surface to
secure the dishwasher.
Ensure that the seal on the top
edge of the dishwasher fits directly
against the worktop. If this is not the
case, adjust the height adjustable
feet some more, (see Step 2).
14
Adjust the door spring with a Torx
T20 or a 1 x 5.5 mm screwdriver until
it is correctly balanced:
– turn clockwise = tighten
– turn anti-clockwise = loosen.

Installation
7.Matching the plinth facia
of a kitchen run
The plinth area of the dishwasher is normally covered with a plinth run matching the kitchen furniture.
The height (H) of the plinth facia around
the dishwasher depends on the plinth return (R) and how much the door front extends below the dishwasher door (P).
Place the plinth facia directly in front
of the kitchen run but do not attach.
Carefully open the dishwasher door.
If the door front comes into contact with
the kitchen plinth when the dishwasher
door is opened the plinth facia in the
area around the dishwasher door
needs to be cut to size.
To do this mark where the edge of
the door front comes into contact
with the plinth facia.
Cut the plinth facia to size along this
line.
Place the plinth facia in front of the
kitchen run again and check whether
the dishwasher door can be opened
fully.
If it cannot, trim the plinth facia to the
correct size.
Secure the plinth facia to the adjacent kitchen units.
If your kitchen does not have a plinth
run matching the kitchen furniture, the
plinth area can be covered with a separate plinth kit.
15
Page 16
Installation
For kitchens utilizing a non-continuous plinth facia
The included plinth facia will fit without
modification when:
– The machine is set to its maximum
height (legs fully extended), and
– the toekick is recessed as far as
possible (100 mm).
If the machine height is less than maximum, or if the plinth facia is recessed
less than 100 mm, the plinth facia must
be shortened (see following page).
After installation, carefully open the
dishwasher door to check that the
front panel does not hit the plinth
facia. If it does, remove the toekick
and trim it accordingly.
Adjusting the plinth facia recess
To adjust the depth (recess) of the
plinth facia, release the tension on the
spring clips as shown, and push the
mounting brackets in as far as
possible.
Dishwasher model G 6XX
(see data plate for model number)
The flange on the end of the mounting
brackets must point towards the center
of the machine.
Dishwasher model G 8XX
(see data plate for model number)
16
The flange on the end of the mounting
brackets must point towards the outside of the machine.
Page 17
Trimming the plinth facia
The rear of the plinth facia has two cutting lines.
Installation
Carefully open the dishwasher door
until it hits the plinth facia.
Using the front lower edge of the
door panel as a guide, draw a line
across the plinth facia.
Unscrew and remove the plinth facia.
If one of the cutting lines is close to
the line just drawn, score the front of
the plinth facia, and snap off the excess. Otherwise trim the plinth facia
along the line using a saw.
Screw the plinth facia onto the installed brackets, with the cutting
lines towards the top, and pull out
evenly until it aligns with the plinth
facia of the adjoining cabinets.
The plinth facia cannot be pushed back
in. It must be unscrewed, so that the tension on the spring clips can be released.
The brackets can then be pushed in,
and the plinth facia re-attached.
Screw the plinth facia back onto the
brackets, with
bottom.
If the dishwasher door does not open
completely, the plinth facia may need
further trimming.

Connection to the water inlet
Water in the dishwasher must not
be used as drinking water.
The dishwasher may be connected
to a cold or hot water supply, max.
60 °C. When connected to a hot
water supply all programme stages
which would otherwise be carried
out with cold water (pre-wash and interim rinse) will be carried out with
hot water.
The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long;
a longer hose (4 m) may be bought
from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
A stopcock with a 3/4 " male thread
must be provided on site.
The dishwasher is constructed to
comply with Australian regulations,
and may be connected to a suitable
supply without an extra non-return
valve if national regulations allow
this.
Plumbing
Connect the inlet hose with the
“Waterproof system” preferably vertically so that the hose exits from the
bottom of the “Waterproof valve”
box, (use an angle connector if
necessary).
For water pressure (flow pressure at
the take-off point) see “Technical
Data” at the end of this booklet.
If the water pressure is too low the
Water “inlet / outlet” light may light
up, (see “Problem solving guide”).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be
fitted.
The water inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way,
(see following illustration).
If this is not possible it can be installed horizontally, but it is essen-
tial that the main body of the “Water-
proof valve” box is above the hose
exit (see illustration). The ’lightning’
power symbol should be above the
water flow ’arrow’.
19
Page 20
Plumbing
If the stopcock is situated in the
worktop, a special angle connector
can be ordered from the Miele Spare
Parts Dept. (Part No. 04 274 820).
Lay the hose in such a way that it
does not rise above the bottom of
the “Waterproof valve” box (see illustration).

Plumbing
Drainage
The machine drainage system is
fitted with a non-return valve, which
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the machine via the drain
hose.
The dishwasher is supplied with approx. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose
with an internal diameter of 22 mm.
The drain hose can be extended
using a connection piece and an
extra drain hose, (up to max. 4
metres).
for the drain hose may be designed
to fit more than one diameter of
hose. The connection socket must
be shortened if it juts too far into the
drain hose. Otherwise the drain hose
can become blocked.
The drain hose must not be shortened.
Ensure that the drain hose is laid so
that it is free from kinks.
Venting the drainage system
Open the dishwasher door fully.
If the site drain connection is situated
lower than the guide path for the bottom basket rollers in the open door the
drainage system must be vented.
Otherwise a siphoning effect during a
programme can cause the machine to
empty itself of water.
To vent:
If the hose is to be directly fitted to
the drainage outlet on site, use the
hose clip supplied.
The connection socket on the dishwasher can be turned. The hose can
thus be laid to the right or left without
needing to loosen the hose clip supplied.
The drain system must not exceed 4
metres. The drain pump has a maximum delivery head of 1 metre.
