• Level floor
• Allowable slope under entire washer is 1°.
• To minimize noise and vibration, the
washer MUST be installed on a solidly
constructed floor.
• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not
recommended.
• Never install the washer on a platform or
weakly supported structure.
A firm, solid floor is even more critical
to a front-loading washer than to a
top-loader. If your floor is wood and/or
frame construction, you may need to
reinforce it. Front-loaders use
substantially faster spin speeds than
top-loaders, causing greater vibration.
If the floor is not solid, your washer will
vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.
• Power outlet
• Must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of either side of
the washer. Do not overload the outlet with
more than one appliance.
• Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
