Spacing for recessed area or closet installation
All dimensions show recommended spacing allowed, with tested spacing of 0" (0 mm) clearance on sides.
■ Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.
■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and oor moldings.
■ Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the washer to reduce noise transfer.
■ For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the door are
required. Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable.
■ Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
