Selecting the proper location for your washer improves performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. See "Drain System."
IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
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 4 ft (1.2 m) of where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer.
See "Electrical Requirements." Hot and cold water faucets located within 3 ft (90 cm) of the
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 5-100 psi (34.5-690 kPa). Washers with triple dispensers require
20-100 psi (138-690 kPa) for best performance. A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under entire
washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not recommended. A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water
and load) of 315 Ibs (143 kgs).
Do not store or operate your washer in temperatures at or below 32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See "Washer Care" in the Washer User Instructions for information on winterizing.
Recessed area or closet installation
The washer can be installed using the standpipe drain system
(floor or wall), the laundry tub drain system, or the floor drain system. Select the drain hose installation method you need. See
"Tools and Parts."
Standpipe drain system--wall or floor (views A & B)
The standpipe drain requires a minimum diameter standpipe of
2" (5 cm). The minimum carry-away capacity can be no less than 17 gal. (64 L) per minute. A 1V4" (3.2 cm) diameter to 1" (2.5 cm)
diameter standpipe adapter kit is available. See "Tools and Parts." The top of the standpipe must be at least 39" (99 cm) high and no
higher than 96" (244 cm) from the bottom of the washer. To avoid siphoning, no more than 8" (20.3 cm) of drain hose
should be inside the standpipe. Secure drain hose with beaded tie strap.

• Do not ground to a gas pipe.
• Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the washer is properly grounded.
• Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.
This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a grounded 3 prong plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating, grounded 3 prong outlet, grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating
outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded
outlet installed by a qualified electrician. If codes permit and aseparate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.
For a grounded, cord=connected washer:
This washer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This washer is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
WARNING: improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. For a permanently connected washer:
This washer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
