Location Requirements
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 49°C (120°F) water to the washer.
■ An earthed electrical outlet located within 1.2 m (4 ft) of where
the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. See
“Electrical Requirements.”
■ Hot and cold water faucets located within 90 cm (3 ft) of the
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of
34.5-690 kPa (5-100 psi). Washers with triple dispensers
require 138-690 kPa (20-100 psi) for best performance.
■ A level floor with a maximum slope of 2.5 cm (1") under entire
washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not
recommended. Ventilation openings in the base must not be
obstructed by carpet.
■ A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water
and load) of 143 kg (315 lbs).
Do not store or operate your washer in temperatures at or below
0°C (32°F). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See “Washer Care” in the Washer
User Instructions for winterizing information.

■ Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
■ Additional clearances may be required for wall, door and floor
moldings.
■ Additional spacing of 2.5 cm (1") on all sides of the washer is
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
■ If a closet door is installed, the minimum air openings in the
top and bottom of the door are required (C). Louvered doors
with air openings in the top and bottom are acceptable.
■ Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
Drain System
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
5 cm (2"). The minimum carry-away capacity can be no less than
64 L (17 gal.) per minute. A 3.2 cm (1¹⁄₄") diameter to 2.5 cm (1")
diameter standpipe adapter kit is provided.
The top of the standpipe must be at least 99 cm (39") high and no
higher than 244 cm (96") from the bottom of the washer.

Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically earth this appliance.
Do not use an extension cord or an electrical portable
outlet device.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
■ A 220 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 8- or 10-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 an
earthing plug.
■ To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating, earthing-type 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.
