Location Requirements
Selecting the proper location for your
washer improves performance and mini-
mizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a base-
ment, laundry room, closet, or recessed
area, (See "Drain System.")
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 4 ft (1.2 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 fl (1.2 m) of the hot and cold
water fill valves, and water pressure of
5-100 psi (34.5-689.6 kPa). Washers
with triple dispensers require 20-100 psi
(138.0-689.6 kPa) for best performance.
• A _eve_|_oor with a maximum slope of
1 in. (2.5 cm) under entire washer.
Installing the washer on carpeting is not
recomme_lded.
• A sturdy floor to support the washer
weight (washer, water and load) of 315
Ibs (143 kgs).
Do not store or operate your washer in
temperatures at or below 32"F (0"C).
Some water can remain in the washer and
can cause damage in low temperatures.
See "Washer Care" for winterizing infor-
mation.

• Additional spacing should be consid-
ered for ease of installation and ser-
vicing.
• Additional clearances may be required
for wall, door and floor moldings.
• Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on
all sides of the washer is recommend-
ed to reduce noise transfer.
• If a closet door is installed, the mini-
mum air openings in the top and bot-
tom of the door are required. Louvered
doors with air openings in the top and
bottom are acceptable.
• Companion appliance spacing should
also be considered.
