INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Space requirements
You must allow sufficient space for water lines,
the drain line, and airflow.
Installing on a floor
Install the washing machine on a solid floor
that is strong and rigid enough to support the
weight of the washing machine, 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.
1
Clean the floor before installation.
- Make sure to select solid and smooth
ground.
2
Two or more people are needed for moving
and unpacking the washing machine.
3
Allow for sufficient space between the walls
and the washing machine for installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE
• Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor
moldings that may increase the required
clearances.
NOTE
• The floor must be strong and rigid enough
to support the weight of the washer, when
fully loaded, without flexing or bouncing. If
your floor has too much flex, you may need
to reinforce it to make it more rigid.
A floor that is adequate for a top-loading
washer may not be rigid enough for a front
loading washer, due to the difference in
the spin speed and direction. If the floor is
not solid, your washer may vibrate and you
may hear and feel the vibration throughout
your house.
• Before installing the washer, make sure
the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt,
water and oils so the washer feet can not
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.
