BASIC LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Electrical
• 220-240 Volt 50 Hz 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker
• Individual branch circuit serving only your Washer is recommended.
• Your Washer is equipped with a power cord.
NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
CAUTION
Grounding
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING IS REQUIRED FOR THIS APPLIANCE.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a
properly installed and grounded outlet.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
An improperly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the
WARNING
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it
does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring and
grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No.
70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the
appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.
NEVER CONNECT THE GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES, OR
HOT WATER PIPES.
CAUTION
01 installing your washer
Water
To correctly fill your Washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to 116psi (137 to
800kPa) is required.
Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve
to shut o completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your Washer controls allow,
causing your Washer to turn o. 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 of the back of your Washer to match the inlet
hoses provided with your Washer.
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 o faucets when the washer is not in use.
• Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.
CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS AT THE WATER VALVE AND FAUCET FOR LEAKS.

installing your washer
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.
