rately or with another dryer, it must be on a
separate 220 V single-phase circuit.
If the machine is to be used in a wet area,
the supply must be protected by a residual
current device.

Grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least resis-
tance for electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor and a ground-
ing plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Warning!
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified elec-
trician or serviceman if you are in doubt
as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the
appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian.

Freestanding installation

The washer can be placed next to the
dryer. It is essential that the machine is
leveled and the locknuts tight to prevent
excessive vibration during the spin cycles.
Also be sure to leave a minimum of 1/2"
(12 mm) of space between the washer and
the dryer.
The height adjustment for the washer is
33-1/2" to
34-1/2" (850 mm to 876 mm). Do not raise
it higher than 34-1/2".

Stacked installation

ASKO washers should never be stacked
on a counter or a dryer. You can, however,
stack an ASKO dryer on an ASKO washer.
Refer to your Dryer Use and Care Guide
for instructions on how to do this.
