Installation Requirements
Location requirements
Selecting the proper location for your washer improves performance and minimizes noise
and possible washer "walk."Your washer can be installed under a custom counter,or in a
basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. See "Drain System."Companion
appliance location requirements should also be considered. Proper installation is your
responsibility.
You will need
1. A water heater set to deliver 120°F ( 49°C) water to the washer.
2. A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft.(1.8 m) of where the power cord is
attached to the back of the washer.See "Electrical Requirements."
3. Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft.(1.2 m)of the hot and cold water fill
valves,and water pressure of 20 - 1 00 psi ( 1 3 7. 9 - 6 8 9.6 kPa).
4. A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm)under entire washer.Installing the washer
on soft floor surfaces,such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing.is not recommended.
5. A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total weight (water and load) of 200lbs.
6. Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).Some water can
remain in the washer and can cause damage in low temperatures.
Installation clearances
1. The location must be large enough to allow the washer door to be fully opened.

°
opens more than 90 ,and it is nor reversible.
3. Additional clearances might be required for wall ,door , and floor moldings.
4. Additional spacing of 25mm on all sides of the washer is recommended to reduce noise
