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).
