Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather. Do not store or operate the washer in temperatures at or below 0°C (32°F). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause damage in low temperatures.

Proper installation is your responsibility.

You will need:

A water heater set to deliver 60°C (140°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 taps located within 1.2 m (4 ft) of the back of the washer, and provide water pressure of 69-690 kPa (10- 100 psi). A pressure reduction valve should be used in the supply line where inlet pressure entering the building exceeds 690 kPa (100 psi) to prevent damage to the washer mixing valve.

A level floor with a maximum slope of 25 mm (1") under entire washer.

A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water, and load) of 143 kgs (315 lbs).

Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions

This washer may be installed in a recessed area or closet.

The installation spacing is in inches and is the minimum allowable. Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation, servicing, and compliance with local codes and ordinances.

If closet door is installed, the minimum unobstructed air openings in the top and bottom are required. Louvered doors with equivalent air openings are acceptable.
