Level floor
• 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
NOTE: 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 washe
will vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.
■
Power outlet
• 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.
NOTE: It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
