Installation 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. Alcove or closet installation Minimum clearances for closet and alcove installations: Sides Rear 1 in / 25 mm 6 in / 152 mm Closet front Top 2 in / 51 mm 21 in / 533 mm If the washer and 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. English 17 WA7700M_DC68-03774D-04_EN.indd 17 2019-02-14 6:24:05
