Installation Water To correctly fill your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to 116 psi (137 to 800 kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shut off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your Washer controls allow, causing your Washer to turn off. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose. The water faucets must be within 4 feet (122 cm) to the back of your Washer to match the inlet hoses provided with your Washer. NOTE Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet (275 cm) for faucets that are further away from the back of your washer. To avoid the possibility of water damage: • Have water faucets easily accessible. • Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use. • Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings. WARNING Check all connections at the water valve and faucet for leaks Drain facility The recommended height of the standpipe is 39 in (99 cm). The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached to the washer at the factory. Flooring For best performance, you must install your washer 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 in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the belts, the pump, hoses, and other components. WA3000A_DC68-03850F-00_EN.indd 17 English 17 2020-12-07 4:20:54
