Installation spacing for recessed area and closet
installations
The following spacing dimensions are recommended for this
washer. This washer has been tested for installation with spacing
of 0" (0 cm) clearance on the sides. Recommended spacing
should be considered for the following reasons:
• Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
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.
