FLOORING

NOTE: Please note that the floor must be strong

and rigid enough to support the weight of the

washer when fully loaded, without flexing or

bouncing. If your floor has too much flex in it,

you may need to reinforce it to make it more

rigid. A floor that is adequate for a top-loading

washer may not be rigid enough for a front-

loading washer, due to the difference in the spin

speed and direction. If the floor is not solid, your

washer may vibrate and you may hear and feel

the vibration throughout your house.

INSTALLATIONS WITH OPTIONAL

PEDESTAL BASE OR STACkING kIT

IMPORTANT: If you are installing your washer

using an optional pedestal base or stacking kit,

please refer to the instructions for your pedestal

or stacking kit before proceeding with the

installation.
