12 INSTALLATION
Choosing the Proper
Location
Install the washer on a solid floor that is strong and
rigid enough to support the weight of the washer,
even when fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing.
If the floor has too much flex, you may need to
reinforce it to make it more rigid. If the floor is not
solid, it may cause severe vibration and noise.
NOTE
• Before installing the washer, make sure the floor
is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so
the washer feet cannot slide easily. Leveling feet
that can move or slide on the floor can contribute to
excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with
the floor.
• If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow
the instructions provided with the drip pan and make
sure the leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even
contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to
properly level the machine may result in increased
vibration and noise during operation.
• Allow for sufficient space between the walls and the
washer for installation.
• If the appliance is installed in an area where the
temperature is above or below the recommended
operating temperature range, it may result in longer
drying times or poor drying performance.

Power Outlet

• The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m)
of either side of the washer.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that
the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
• The outlet must be grounded in accordance with
current electrical wiring codes and regulations.
• Use a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
NOTE
• It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the
product owner to have a proper outlet installed by
qualified service personnel.
Flooring
• To minimize noise and vibration, the washer must
be installed on a solidly constructed floor.
NOTE
• The washer must be installed on firm flooring to
minimize vibration during the spin cycle. Concrete
flooring is best, but a wood floor is sufficient,
provided it is built to FHA standards.
