LocationRequirements

Selecting the proper location for your washer improves performance and minimizes noise and possible washer “walk.”

Your washer can be installed under a custom counter, or in a basement, laundry room, 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 60°C (140°F) water to the washer.

■An earthed electrical outlet located within 1.8 m (6 ft.) of where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. See “Electrical Requirements.”

■Hot and cold water taps located within 1.2 m (4 ft.)

of the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 137.9-689.6 kPa (20-100 psi).

■A level floor with a maximum slope of 25 mm (1") 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 180 kg (400 lbs).

Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 0°C (32°F). 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. The door opens more than 90° and it is not reversible.

■Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and floor moldings.

■Additional spacing of 25 mm (1") on all sides of the washer is recommended to reduce noise transfer.

■Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

■When installed, the plug should be accessible for washer disconnection from the mains supply.

ElectricalRequirements

■A 220-240V, 50 Hz., fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay 10-16A fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.

■This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having an earthed plug.

■To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into an earthed socket outlet, earthed 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 earthed outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

■If codes permit and a separate earth wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the earth path is adequate.

■If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a qualified person to avoid a hazard.

■Do not earth to a gas pipe.

■Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the washer is properly earthed.

■Do not have a fuse in the neutral or earth circuit.

EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS

This washer must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This washer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipmentearthing 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 earthed.

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.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

RemoveTransportSystem

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install washer. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

IMPORTANT: Position the washer so that the rear of the washer is within approximately 900 mm (3 ft.) of its final location.

There are 4 shipping bolts in the rear panel of the washer that support the suspension system during transportation. These bolts also retain the power cord inside the washer until the bolts are removed.

1.Keep the washer in the upright position while removing the shipping bolts.

2.Using a 1/2" wrench, loosen each of the bolts.

3.Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer covering the bolt.

4.Once all 4 bolts are removed, discard the bolts and spacers. Then push the power cord plug into the opening on the right side of the rear panel and pull the power cord through the opening on the left side of the rear panel and close holes with the attached cap. Do not pull plug end of power cord through the right side hole.

5.Close the bolt holes with the 4 transport bolt hole plugs.

NOTE: If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your product distributor or installer. To avoid suspension and structural damage, your washer must be properly set up for relocation by a trained professional.

5.If the washer taps and the drain standpipe are recessed, put the hooked end of the drain hose in the standpipe as shown. See illustration C.

NOTES:

■Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the washer.

■To avoid siphoning, do not seal the drain hose into the standpipe.

LeveltheWasher

Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and vibration.

1.Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the top edge of the washer, first side to side, then front to back.

If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the front with a wood block and adjust the feet as necessary; then prop the back and adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this step until washer is level.

2.Make sure all four feet are stable and resting on the floor. Check that the washer is level (use a level).

3.After the washer is level, use a 9/16" open-end wrench to turn the nuts on the feet tightly against the washer cabinet.

IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tightened. If the nuts are not tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.

4.The washer should not move front to back, side to side, or diagonally when pushed on its top edges.

5.Slide the washer to its final location.

6.Confirm the levelness of the washer.

CompleteInstallation
