Location Requirements
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 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.
■■ A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. See “Electrical Requirements.”
■■ Hot and cold water taps located within 4 ft. (1.2 m) of the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 20–100 psi (137.9–689.6 kPa).
■■ A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) 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 400 lbs (180 kg).
Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C). 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 is not reversible.
■■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and floor moldings.
■■ Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the washer is recommended to reduce noise transfer.
■■ Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

Electrical Requirements
■■ A 120-volt, 60 Hz., AC-only, 15or 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 washer be provided.
■■ This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug.
■■ To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type 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 a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.
■■ 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.
INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
Remove Transport System
IMPORTANT: Position the washer so that the rear of the washer is within approximately 3 ft. (900 mm) 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 ½" 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.
Connect the Inlet Hoses
Insert new flat washers (supplied) into each end of the inlet hoses. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.
3.Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten, use tape, or sealants on the valve. Damage to the valves can result.
Clear water lines
■■ Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a laundry tub, drainpipe, or bucket, to get rid of particles in the water lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.
■■ Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
Connect the inlet hoses to the washer

4.Turn on the water faucets completely and check for leaks and at washer connection.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on the hoses for future reference.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
Connect the Drain Hose
Remove drain hose from washer drum
1.Use locking pliers, squeeze hose clamp tabs together and insert over the end of drain hose.
2. Slide drain hose onto washer connection.
3. Once drain hose is in place, release pliers.
Washer drain system can be installed using a floor drain, wall standpipe, floor standpipe, or laundry tub.
Laundry tub drain or standpipe drain
Connect the drain hose form to the corrugated drain hose.
To keep drain water from going back into the washer:
■■ Use the drain hose form and do not force excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure but loose enough
to provide a gap for air.
■■ Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.
Floor drain
You may need additional parts. See “Floor drain” under “Tools and Parts.”
Secure the Drain Hose
Drain hose must be secured to stop the hose from moving when water is pumped out. If the drain hose moves, water may end up on the floor.
1.Drape the power cord over the washer top.
2.Move the washer to its final location.
3.Place the drain hose in the laundry tub or standpipe as shown. See illustrations A and B.

Level the Washer
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 4 feet are stable and resting on the floor. Then check that the washer is perfectly 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 4 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.
Complete Installation
1.Check the electrical requirements. Be sure that you have the correct electrical supply and the recommended grounding method. See “Electrical Requirements.”
2.Check that all parts are now installed. If there is an extra part, go back through the steps to see which step was skipped.
3.Check that you have all of your tools.
4.Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.
5.Check that the water faucets are on.
6.Check for leaks around faucets and inlet hoses.
7.Plug into an grounded 3 prong outlet.
8.To test and clean your washer, measure ½ of the detergent manufacturer’s recommended amount of High Efficiency (HE) detergent for a medium-size load. Pour the detergent into the detergent dispenser. Select any cycle and allow the washer to complete one whole cycle.
