Your washer can be installed under a custom counter, or in a basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. See "Drain System." Companion appliance location requirements should also be considered. Proper installation is your responsibility. You will need • A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer. • A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft (1.8 m) of where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. See "Electrical Requirements." • Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 20-100 psi (137.9-689.6 kPa). • A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire washer. Installing the washer on soft floor surfaces, such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended. • A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total weight (water and load) of 400 [bs (180 kg). Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause damage in low temperatures. Installation clearances • The location must be large enough to allow the washer door to be fully opened. • Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing. • Additional clearances might be required for wall, doob and floor moldings. • Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the washer is recommended to reduce noise transfer. • Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
