WM2277 WASHER PAGE 13 of 84 TRAINING MANUAL
The air vent on the back of the machine must be left open and clear at all times.
If the washer is installed in a closet or closed laundry alcove, there must be
sufficient clearance and ventilation. The closet should have a full louvered door
with at least 800 square inches (0.5 m
2
) of open area for ventilation.
The washer requires a space of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) between the wall and the
machine on each side and at least 4 inches (10 cm) between the back of the
washer and the wall. Additional space may be needed for servicing.
ACCESSORIES
The washer comes with the two input hoses. The blue stripe is for cold water and
the red stripe is for hot water. The hoses are
NOT mechanically identical; it is
critical to the performance of the washer to have the hot and cold hoses
connected correctly.
The wrench is used to remove (and replace) the shipping bolts and to adjust the
leveling feet. Be sure to leave it and encourage the customer to retain the wrench,
the four shipping bolts, and the manual in a safe place in the event the washer
requires service or the customer moves.
The shipping bolts MUST BE
REMOVED before operating the
washer. (See page 13.)
Use the wrench supplied or a socket
wrench for speed. Notice there is a
piece of tape securing the cord and
reminding the installer to remove the
bolts before connecting the cord.
There is also a clip on one of the bolts
to prevent connection before the bolts
are removed.
