Options
Pedestal
You have the option of purchasing pedestals separately for this
washer. The pedestal will add to the total height of the washer.
Optional pedestal
NOTE: Some models have pedestal pre-installed.
Location Requirements
Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer “walk.”
Your washer can be installed under a custom counter, or in a
basement, laundry room, or recessed area. See “Drain System.”
Companion appliance location requirements should also be
considered. 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 6 ft (1.8 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 (137.9-689.6 kPa).
■ A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
washer. Installing the washer on soft floor surfaces, such as
carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended.
■ A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total
weight (water and load) of 400 lbs (180 kg).
Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Some water can remain in the washer and can cause damage
in low temperatures.
Installation clearances
■ The location must be large enough to allow the washer door
to be fully opened.
■ Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing. The door opens more than 90°
and it is not reversible.
■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and
floor moldings.
■ Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the washer
is recommended to reduce noise transfer.
■ Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
