■
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. See “Washer Care” in the Washer User
Instructions for information on winterizing.
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.
