Positioning the washer
The location must be large enough to
fully open the washer door.
Washer dimensions
Minimum installation spacing for
recessed area installation.
The following dimensions shown are for
the minimum spacing allowed.
Additional spacing should be considered
for installation and servicing.
• Additional clearances might be required for
wall, door and floor moldings.
• Additional spacing of 1/2" (1.2cm) on all
sides of the washer is recommended to
reduce noise transfer.
• Most installations require a minimum 1/2"
(1.2cm) clearance behind the washer.
Level floor
• Allowable slope under entire washer is 1°.
• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer
MUST be installed on a solidly constructed
floor.
• Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are not
recommended.
• Never install the washer on a platform or
surface with poor support.
A firm, solid floor is even more critical to a
front-loading washer than to a top-loader.
If your floor is wood and/or frame
construction, you may need to reinforce it.
Front-loaders use substantially faster spin
speeds than top-loaders, causing greater
vibration. If the floor is not solid, your washer
will vibrate. You will hear and feel the
vibration throughout your house.
Power outlet
• Must be within 60 in. (1.5 m) of either side of
the washer. Do not overload the outlet with
more than one appliance.
• Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
It is the personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
