Alternate Parts

 

Your installation may require additional parts. For information on  
ordering, please refer to the toll-free phone numbers on the front 
page of the Washer User Instructions.  

 

Location Requirements

 

Selecting the proper location for your washer improves 
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer “walk.”

Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, 
closet, or recessed area. See “Drain System.”

 

IMPORTANT:

 

 Do not install or store the washer where it will be 

exposed to the weather.

Proper installation is your responsibility.

 

You will need:

 

 

A water heater set to deliver 49˚C (120˚F) water to the washer.

 

 

An earthed electrical outlet located within 1.2 m (4 ft) of 
where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. 
See “Electrical Requirements.”

 

 

Hot and cold water faucets located within 90 cm (3 ft) of the 
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 34.5-
690 kPa (5-100 psi). Washers with triple dispensers require 
138-690 kPa (20-100 psi) for best performance.

 

 

A level floor with a maximum slope of 2.5 cm (1") under entire 
washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not 
recommended. Ventilation openings in the base must not be 
obstructed by carpet.

 

 

A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water 
and load) of 143 kg (315 lbs).

Do not store or operate your washer in temperatures at or below 
0˚C (32˚F). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause 
damage in low temperatures. See “Washer Care” in the Washer 
User Instructions for winterizing information.
