INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CHOOSE THE PROPER LOCATION
Install the washing machine on a solid floor that is
strong and rigid enough to support the weight of
the washing machine, even when fully loaded, with-
out flexing or bouncing. If the floor has too much
flex, you may need to reinforce it to make it more
rigid. If the floor is not solid, it may cause severe
vibration and noise.
POWER OUTLET
•
The power outlet must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of
either side of the washer.
•
The appliance and outlet must be positioned so
that the plug is easily accessible.
•
Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
•
The outlet must be grounded in accordance with
current wiring electric codes and regulations.
•
Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
NOTE: It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the product owner to have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified service technician.
FLOORING
•
To minimize noise and vibration, the washer
MUST be installed on a solidly constructed floor.
•
Allowable slope under the entire washer is a
maximum 1 in. difference from side to side or
from front to back.
•
Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is not
recommended.
•
Never install the washer on a platform or weakly
supported structure.
NOTE: The washer must be installed on firm floor-
ing to minimize vibration during the spin cycle.
Concrete flooring is best, but a wood floor is suf-
ficient, provided it is built to FHA standards. The
washer should not be installed on rugs or exposed
to weather.

To ensure sufficient clearance for water lines and
airflow, allow minimum clearances of at least 1 in.
(2.5 cm) at the sides and 4 in. (10 cm) behind the
unit. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor mold-
ings that may increase the required clearances.

vertical clearance by approximately 1 in.
