it may be possible for an installation in
these applications. Please contact the
nearest Miele dealer or the Miele Tech-
nical Service Department with specific
requirements.
Inspect the dishwasher for ship-
ping damage. Do not install or op-
erate a damaged unit. Contact the
place of purchase.
This dishwasher must be installed
under a continuous countertop se-
cured to adjacent cabinetry.
Do not install this dishwasher be-
neath a cooking surface or oven.
Do not, under any circumstances,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Electrical safety
Before installation, make sure that
the voltage and frequency listed on
the data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. This data
must correspond to prevent injury and
machine damage. Consult a qualified
electrician if in doubt.
To guarantee the electrical safety
of this appliance, continuity must
exist between the appliance and an ef-
fective grounding system. It is impera-
tive that this basic safety requirement
be met. If there is any doubt, have the
electrical system of the house checked
by a qualified electrician. The manufac-
turer cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or inade-
quacy of, an effective grounding sys-
tem
Before installation or service, dis-
connect the power supply to the
work area by unplugging the unit, re-
moving the fuse or "tripping" the circuit
breaker.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect this appliance to electric-
ity. Extension cords do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance,
(e.g. danger of overheating).
Child safety
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely
and kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
If the appliance is removed from its
installation and will not be used,
the door to the wash cabinet should be
removed to prevent children from being
locked in the machine.
When discarding an old dish-
washer, unplug it from the power
outlet, remove the door to the wash
cabinet and cut off the power cord.

G 600 Series Dishwashers
Full size models G 636 G 698
Removing the leg extensions
The black leg extensions can be re-
moved to reduce the height of the ma-
chine to 32 1/4" - 33" (819 - 838 mm)
(see Inset).
A = Black leg extension (removable)
B = White leg (must be installed on
machine).
^After removing the black leg exten-
sions, screw the white legs onto the
dishwasher.
Machine heights of 33 1/4" - 34" (845-
864 mm) are not possible using the
supplied legs.
For this height range, or for heights
greater than 34 7/8" (886 mm), ex-
tended legs (part # 02 702 601) are
necessary.
Contact the Miele Technical Service
Department for the appropriate legs.

curely fastened.

1.Install the steam deflector
A stainless steel steam deflector is sup-
plied to protect the countertops from
steam and condesation when the dish-
washer is opened. If the countertop is
made of Corian®, granite, marble or
other solid, waterproof material, the
steam deflector is not required.
If the counter is made of different
materials, the steam deflector
should be positioned so that it cov-
ers the edge where the materials are
joined. Countertops with wood or
laminate edging should be tacked
through the rear holes of the steam
deflector.
^Squeeze a bead of silicone sealant
from the supplied tube into the ridge
formed by the curved edge, a, of the
steam deflector.
^Line up the steam deflector, b, with
the lower front edge of the countertop
and use the supplied tacks to secure.
^Wipe off any excess silicone with a
rag.
The "Extended drying" feature can
be activated to further protect the
counter from condensation. See the
Operating instructions / Additional
features.
Installation

2.Install the mounting brackets
To ensure stability, this dishwasher
should be securely attached to the
countertop with the two mounting
brackets included.
^Insert the tab of each bracket into the
guide holes on the top of the dish-
washer.
Stone or marble countertops:
The dishwasher must be secured to the
adjacent cabinets with fixing angles
(part # 03 341 080), available from
Miele’s Technical Service Department.
3. Install the slide skis
Two slide skis are included and should
be installed on the feet of the dish-
washer before the machine is pushed
under the countertop. This will allow the
machine to slide easier, protect the
floor, and allow adjustment of the rear
leveling legs from the front of the ma-
chine.
^First, adjust the height of the legs so
that the top of the dishwasher is
roughly 1/8" (3 mm) below the
countertop.
Tipping the machine slightly to the rear,
if possible, will make adjusting the front
legs easier. Make sure the machine is
level when adjustments are complete.
^Place the skis, with the ratchet at the
rear, under the dishwasher legs.
Installation

4.Install the dishwasher
under the countertop
The dishwasher must be installed so
that the water and electricity supplies
can be accessed through an adjacent
cabinet. The supplies must not be lo-
cated behind the machine.
The floor of the cut out where the dish-
washer will be installed should be even
in height with the surrounding kitchen
floor. Plywood can be secured to the
floor to make the two areas even.
^Make a 2" x 4" (5 x 10 cm) cut out in
the side or bottom of the cabinet ad-
joining the dishwasher. This cut out is
necessary for connections to pass
through.
^Make certain that there are no rough
edges that could damage the power
cord or hoses. If metal cabinets are
used, place the supplied rubber
grommet around the edge of the ope-
ning before passing the cable
through.
^Slide the machine into the opening,
making sure the electrical cable and
hoses can reach their connection
points without kinking.
The drain hose connection at the rear of
the dishwasher can be turned to allow
the hose to be angled to the right or
left.
Exercise care when sliding the dish-
washer in or out, to prevent damag-
ing the power cord or hoses.
Installation
11

5. Level the legs
^The rear leveling legs can be ad-
justed with a T20 Torx screwdriver by
turning the screws at the front of the
slide skis.
To raise the machine turn clockwise.
To lower the machine turn counter
clockwise.
Several turns may be needed to set the
correct height. Do not use a power
screwdriver.
^Adjust the front leveling legs by
pushing on the feet with a slotted
screwdriver.
^Tipping the machine slightly back-
wards, if posssible will make adjust-
ing the front legs easier. Make sure
the machine is level when adjust-
ments are complete.
The dishwasher should be raised
until it just touches the underside of
the countertop.
If you are installing a prefinished unit
dishwasher proceed to step 9.

7. Align the control panel
The control panel should be aligned
with the drawer fronts of the adjoining
kitchen cabinets by adjusting the filler
strips.
^Using an 8 mm socket, turn the nut
clockwise or counterclockwise until
the filler strips line up with the drawer
line.
If necessary, individual or all of the filler
strips can be removed.
^To remove the filler strips from the
control panel, place the panel printed
side up, and gently push down near
the bottom of the control panel. This
will release the mounting bolts from
their slots.
^After adjusting the control panel
height, cut off the plastic screw ex-
cess.

8.Install the custom door
panel
A custom door panel matching the
kitchen cabinetry can be installed using
the provided templates and bracket.
X= Panel length
A= Height to the underside of the
countertop
B= Control panel height*
C= Toe Kick Height
Length X:
Determined using the following calcula-
tion: X = A – B – C
*Control panel height is determined by
the height of the drawers in the cabi-
nets. This height is adjustable between
41/2" and 5 3/4" with the filler strips pro-
vided. An additional filler strip and foam
inserts may be ordered to reach 6" in
height.
As long as the panel length calculated
is within the Range of Panel Sizes
listed, the custom panel should fit with-
out a problem.
Range of Panel Sizes
G 636 G 698
Length: 19" - 23 3/4" (483 - 603 mm)
Width: 23 1/2" (598 mm)
G 801 G 832
Length: 21" - 25 3/4" (533 - 654 mm)

G 836 G 898
Length: 21" - 25 3/4" (533 - 654 mm)
Width: 23 1/2" (598 mm)
Note:
The maximum panel length is only ap-
plicable when no filler strips are
used. The door panel thickness should
be 3/4" (19 mm).
Custom door panels should be finished
on all edges. Trim kits are not available
for custom door panels.
