Installation clearances

The location must be large enough to fully
open the washer door.

Washer dimensions

• Most installations require a minimum 4 in.

(10 cm) clearance behind the washer.

Minimum installation spacing

for recessed area installation.

The following dimensions shown are for the
minimum spacing allowed.

Additional spacing should be considered for
installation and servicing.

• Additional clearances might be required for

wall, door and floor moldings.

• Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on all

sides of the washer is recommended to
reduce noise transfer.

Companion appliance spacing should also be
considered.

Level floor

Power outlet

• Allowable slope under entire washer is 1°.
• To minimize noise and vibration, the

washer MUST be installed on a solidly
constructed floor.

• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not

recommended.

• Never install the washer on a platform or

weakly supported structure.

Must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of either side of

the washer. Do not overload the outlet with
more than one appliance.

Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is

recommended.

It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

A firm, solid floor is even more critical
to a front-loading washer than to a
top-loader. If your floor is wood and/or
frame construction, you may need to
reinforce it. Front-loaders use
substantially faster spin speeds than
top-loaders, causing greater vibration.
If the floor is not solid, your washer will
vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.
