When the machine lid needs to be
removed to reduce the height of the
machine, a countertop kit*is
necessary. The cover plate in the
countertop kit replaces the machine
lid and ensures electrical safety.
–
Water intake, drain and electrical
connections should be installed near
the machine and be easily accessible.
An installation manual is supplied with
the countertop kit.
(* available from your Miele dealer or

Washer stand with drawer
A washer stand is available to raise the
machine for convenience. It has a
drawer to store cleaning essentials.
