20-100 psi (137.9-689.6 kPa).
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under entire
washer. Installing the washer on soft floor surfaces, such as

A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total
weight (water and load) of 400 lbs (180 kg).
Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
