Location

Selecting the proper location for the washer-dryer improves performance and minimizes noise. Proper installation is your responsibility. The washer-dryer can be installed under a counter, in a closet, in an alcove, or in a recessed area with minimum installation clearances of 0” sides, 1” front/back.

You’ll Need

•A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.

•A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft. (1.8m) of where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer. (See “Electrical Requirements.”) Make sure the electrical socket is accessible so you can unplug the washer when not in use.

•Hot and cold water faucets located within 8ft. (2.4 m) of the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 7.5-100 psi.

•A solid, level floor that can support at least 280 lbs. (127 kg). DO NOT install on carpet. The ma- chine must rest solid on a sturdy floor for optimum performance and minimum vibration.

•Enough space to open the door fully so you can load and unload easily.

•RV/Marine Installations: When locating the appli- ance in a towable trailer or watercraft, position the machine over the axles or mid-ship where move- ment is at a minimum. Block the machine to prevent extreme movement or tipping.

Water Inlet Requirements

Water pressure must range within 7.5 and 100 psi. If the water pipes are new or left unused, before con- necting the machine, run the water until clear to remove debris. Connect the inlet hose to a cold water tap having a 3/4” BSP thread. Ensure that there are rubber washers at the end of each inlet hose. The L-Shaped end goes on the machine and the straight ends on the water faucets.

CAUTION!

1.This washing machine must only be operated with cold and hot tap water. Do not connect the appliance to a mixer tap of an unpressured hot-water boiler.

2.To prevent water damage, the hot and cold water valves should be accessible when the washer is in place and should always be turned off when the washer is not in use.
