A 3 pole-4 wire grounding power outlet (NEMA type 14-30 R) is necessary. EASY INSTALLATION KIT If you do not have a dedicated 15 Amp line for this appliance, but you have the standard, 120/208-240 V - 30 Amp, 60 Hz AC outlet, you can use the "Easy Installation Kit", which allows you to use that line to connect the dryer to power. 057B for on-site outlet NEMA 10-30 R 060B for on-site outlet NEMA 14-30 R For more information on the "Easy Installation Kit" or if you have questions concerning the electrical connection, please contact: U 1-800-999-1360 techserv@mieleusa.com V 1-800-565-6435 service@miele.ca Installation a Exhaust connection: The exhaust hose can be installed either at the rear, left or right of the dryer. b Power cord with plug c Control panel d Door e Four height adjustable feet Installation Leveling the dryer Determining the position of the The dryer must be level to ensure safe and proper operation. Minor discrepancies do not however, have an adverse effect on operation. The machine can be leveled by turning the legs clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary. exhaust connection The exhaust connection can be left at the rear of the dryer (factory standard) or moved to the left or right side of the dryer. Changing the position of the exhaust connection ^ Remove the exhaust connection cover on the left or right side of the dryer. ^Turn the cover counterclockwise to remove it. ^Firmly press the cover into the rear opening. Installation Installation tips An airflow gap of 3/8" (10 mm) must be provided between the machine and the floor. This airflow gap must not be blocked by a toekick or thick piled carpets. Do not install the dryer next to a refrigerator. The warm air exhausting from the dryer can affect the thermostat of the refrigerator, causing it to run continuously. Installation Exhaust connection with a Window connection flexible exhaust hose or rigid pipe Using the connector supplied, an exhaust hose (4" [100 mm] diameter) can be installed. Necessary materials: – a wall or window duct – an exhaust hose made of approved non-flammable material ^ Install the connector, 1, with the exhaust hose or pipe, 2, to the dryer. 1Window connection (installed in a plexiglass pane) 2Connector for the flexible exhaust hose Wall connection with rigid pipe 1 Wall pipe 2 Connector 3 Rigid pipe Direct wall connection Necessary materials: – a wall pipe – flexible foam gasket Dryer top view 1 Wall pipe 2 Flexible foam gasket Dryer side view 1 Wall pipe 2 Flexible foam gasket ^ Connect the flexible foam gasket, 2, to the wall pipe connector, 1. ^ Push the dryer to the wall. Installation 30 Installation How to calculate the effective duct length The overall duct length will determine the duct diameter. ^ Measure the actual duct length needed to go from the dryer’s exhaust connection to the vent outlet: 1. Establish the number of elbows or bends necessary, noting the type of bend, angle and radius involved (see Table). 2. Add the additional duct length (as derived by using the values specified in the table) to the actual duct length to get the effective length. Note: Maximum effective duct lengths: 4" (100 mm) diameter 66 ft (20 m) 5" (125 mm) diameter 132 ft (40 m) 6" (150 mm) diameter 328 ft (100 m) Effective duct lengths over 66 ft (20 m) require a larger duct diameter. Longer ducts may lead to slight decreases in dryer efficiency if the necessary duct diameter is not employed. Tips about the ductwork – Check with your local building code to determine the maximum allowable duct length. – Use flexible metal pipe or rigid metal pipe for venting. Non-metallic flexible hose should not be used since it is a potential fire hazard. – For best drying results avoid extra long ducting with too many bends, angles or tight corners. – The shorter the exhaust ductwork, the more efficient the dryer will be. Expelled air is slowed down in the ducts due to friction against the inner walls. The shorter and smoother the inner walls are, the less friction will be created. – An elbow or bend creates more friction than a straight duct. An additional duct length factor must be added for each elbow or bend (see Table). This factor expresses the resistance of the bend in terms of a straight length of duct. The additional length factor is then added to the existing duct to give the effective duct length. A larger duct diameter helps to reduce friction. Therefore the duct diameter and length should be increased simultaneously.
