Notes for installer
The rotary iron should be installed by a
Miele trained installer.
Storage of the machine
The following conditions must be observed
for transport and storage:
Temperature: minimum of - 77°F / 25°C to
maximum of 131°F / 55°C
Humidity: minimum of 5% to maximum of
75%, non-condensing
Maximum storage period: 2 years
Operating conditions
In general, the operating conditions of DIN
60204 and EN 60204-1 apply.
Temperature and relative humidity
Temperature: 40°F / 5°C - 104°F / 40°C
Relative humidity: 10% - 85%
At 70°F (21°C) ambient temperature, the
maximum permissible relative humidity is
70%.
Do not operate the machine in a room
where cleaning machines operate with
solvents containing PERC or CFC.
Motor sparking may convert solvent va‐
pors into hydrochloric acid which can
lead to consequential damage.
Installation
The machine is transported to the installa‐
tion site while still in the packaging. Do not
remove the packaging until right before in‐
stallation.
The machine may be transported or lifted
from the wooden frame only with the lat‐
eral mounting flaps mounted.
First lift the machine at the installation site
by the wooden frame. The suspension
points for lifting hooks/straps are located
under the side columns between the screwon feet.
During installation, remember that the clear‐
ance next to and behind the machine col‐
umns must amount to at least 23 5/8"
(600mm) so that the side plates remain ac‐
cessible.
The machine should be set up so that the
light shines parallel to the infeed table as
much as possible.
The clearance in front of the machine must
amount to at least 60" (1.5m) to prevent a
heating of foreign materials (furniture, walls).
There should be a clearance of at least 39"
(1m) above the machine.
A base and anchoring means are not neces‐
sary.
During the transport of the machine, pay
attention to its stability. The iron may not
be transported without the wooden frame
(e.g., in case of a move). For a new trans‐
port, lift the iron onto the wooden frame
and fasten it there.

Notes for installer
Setting up the rotary iron
Dismantle the mounting flaps on the left
and right sides.
Check the roller and front and outside of
the side columns using a level.
Align the machine using the screw-on feet
in such a way that the side columns and
roller are level with each other. In the
process, the feet may be unscrewed a
maximum of 2 3/8" (60mm).
Counter the screw-on feet according to
the alignment using the nuts (under the
side columns).
Mounting the toe-kick (optional)
Mounting the optionally available toe-kick
can raise the machine by 4" (100mm).
Dismantle the mounting flaps on the left
and right sides.
Unscrew the screw-on feet by the maxi‐
mum amount (> 2 3/8" (60mm)).
Duct for venting steam
Never connect an exhaust hood to an
active chimney, dryer vent, flue, or room
venting ductwork It must also be laid sep‐
arately to any exhaust air duct used for a
laundry dryer.
The moist warm exhaust air must be vented
to the outdoors by the shortest route possi‐
ble. To ensure optimum air flow, the ducting
should contain as few bends as possible
and airtight connections. Filters and louvers
may not be installed into the exhaust duct.
Since the relative humidity can amount to
up to 100%, suitable measures must be
taken to prevent condensate from flowing
back into the machine. If the available pres‐
sure of the machine fan for overcoming con‐
ductor resistance does not suffice, an ac‐
cording dimensioned additional fan must be
installed in the shaft or roof outlet on-site.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in
the room where the ironer is installed
Hold the side columns with a suitable aid
and remove the screw-on feet.
Mount the screw-on feet into the toe-kick
and push the toe-kick under the column.
Screw the toe-kick to the base plate of the
machine.
Install the laundry box on the laun‐
dry outfeed table.
During installation, bring the laundry shelf
into a horizontal position.
Loosen the fastening screws of the laun‐
dry shelf.
Rotate the laundry box by 180° and mount
with the fastening screws on the laundry
outfeed table.
– The connection for the exhaust air duct
for steam extraction (optional for PM
1210) is located on the rear of the left side
column and has a diameter of 2 3/4"
(70mm).
– The exhaust air duct must have an internal
diameter of 2 3/4" (70mm).
– To prevent the build-up of condensation in
an upward sloping exhaust ducting, a 1/8"
- 3/16" (3-5mm) ø condensate trap should
be fitted at the lowest point.
– Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in
the room where the ironer is installed
– The on-site ducting system and the exit
point to the outside must be checked on a
regular basis for a build-up of lint and
cleaned if required.
– The air duct leading into the open should
be protected against the elements, e.g.
using a suitable hood or grille or with a
90° bend.
