Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room,
closet, or recessed area. (See "Drain System.")
Proper installation is your responsibility.
You will need
• A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the
washer.
A grounded electrical outlet located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of
where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer.
(See "Electrical Requirements.")
Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of
20-100 psi (138-690 kPa).
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1 in. (2.5 cm) under
entire washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not
recommended.
• A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water
and load) of 315 Ibs (143 kgs).
Do not store or operate your washer in temperatures at or below
32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See "Washer Care" for winterizing
information.
