Flooring
For best performance, your washer must be installed on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors
may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting
and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move
slightly during the spin cycle.
Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.
Location considerations
Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain
some water water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. This can cause damage to the
pump, hoses and other components.
Alcove or closet installation (washer only)
MINIMUM CLEARANCES FOR CLOSET AND ALCOVE INSTALLATIONS:
Sides - 1 In. (2.5 cm)
Rear - 5.9 In. (15 cm)
Top - 17 In. (43.2 cm)

If the washer and a dryer are installed together, the closet front must have at least a 72 in²
(465 cm²) unobstructed air opening. Your washer alone does not require a specific air opening.
