location before installing the washer.
• Allow for sufficient space between the walls and
the washer for installation.
• Make sure that the floor is clean, dry and free of
dust, dirt, water and oil so the leveling feet
cannot slide easily. Leveling feet that can move
or slide on the floor can contribute to excess
vibration and noise.
• If the floor has too much flex, reinforce it to
make it more rigid. If the floor is not solid, it may
cause severe vibration and noise.
Power Outlet
The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m)
of either side of the washer.
• Position the washer so that the outlet and plug
are easily accessible.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
• The outlet must be grounded in accordance with
current electrical wiring codes and regulations.
• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
• It is the personal responsibility and obligation of
the washer owner to have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
• The washer must be installed on firm flooring to
minimize vibration during the spin cycle.
Concrete flooring is best, but a wood floor is
sufficient, provided it is built to FHA standards.
• The floor under the washer must not slope more
than 1 inch (2.5 cm) from front to back or side to
side.
• Installing on carpeting and soft tile surfaces is
not recommended.
• Never install the washer on a platform or weakly
supported structure.
Floor Installation
To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet
hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum
clearances of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) at the sides
and 4 inches (10 cm) behind the washer. Be sure
to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may
increase the required clearances.
Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead
shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc., is 58 inches (147
cm).
