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.
