Installation Instructions
LOCATION OF YOUR WASHER
Do Not Install the Washer:
1. In an area exposed to dripping water or outside
weather conditions. The ambient temperature
should never be below 60°F (15.6°C) for proper
washer operation.
2. In an area where it will come in contact with curtains or
drapes.
3. On carpet. The floor MUST be a hard surface with
a maximum slope of 1/2 per foot (1.27 cm per
30 cm). To make sure the washer does not vibrate
or move, you may have to reinforce the floor.
NOTE: If floor is in poor condition, use 3/4 impregnated
plywood sheet solidly attached to existing floor covering.
IMPORTANT: Minimum Installation Clearances
- Alcove or Closet
• If your washer is approved for installation in an alcove
or closet, there will be a label on the back of the
machine describing requirements.
• Minimum clearance between washer and adjacent
walls or other surfaces: 0" either side, 2" front, 3"
rear. Vertical space from floor to overhead shelving,
cabinets, ceiling, etc. = 60".
• Closet doors must be louvered or otherwise ventilated
and require 60 square inches of opening near the top
of the door and 60 square inches near the bottom of
the door. If a dryer is located in the same closet, then
these areas must be doubled.
NOTE: The clearances stated on this label are minimums.
Consideration must be given to providing adequate
clearances for installing and servicing.
After the machine is in the home, remove outside packing
material/carton from washer.
Remove bag (containing cable tie, drain hose clip) and
