LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
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 3 ft. (900 mm)
of the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure
of 20–100 psi (138–690 kPa) for best performance.
■ Level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
washer. Installing the washer on carpet is not recommended.
■ A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water,
and load) of 315 lbs (143 kg).
IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store washer where
it will be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below
32° F (0° C). Some water can remain in washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See your “Use and Care Guide”
for information on winterizing.
Proper installation is your responsibility.
Select proper location for your washer to improve performance
and minimize noise and possible “washer walk.” Install your
washer in a basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area.
Spacing for recessed area or closet installation
All dimensions show recommended spacing allowed, with tested
spacing of 0" (0 mm) clearance on sides.
■
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and
floor moldings.
■ Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the
washer to reduce noise transfer.
■ For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation
openings in the top and bottom of the door are required.
Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are
acceptable.
■ Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
To order, please refer to the phone number or website on the
back page of your “Use and Care Guide.”
