All dimensions show recommended spacing allowed, except for closet door ventilation openings which are the minimum required.
For each arrangement, consider allowing more space for ease of installation and servicing, and spacing for companion appliances and clearances for walls, doors, and floor moldings.
Space must be large enough to allow door to fully open. Add spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of washer to reduce
noise transfer. If a closet door or louvered door is installed, top and bottom air openings in door are required.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
nA 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 breaker serving only this appliance be provided.
nThis washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3 prong grounding plug.
nTo 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.
nIf codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.
nDo not ground to a gas pipe.
nCheck with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the washer is properly grounded.
nDo not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
