Installation Requirements
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be properly grounded. In the event
of breakdown or malfunction, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current. The cord for this appliance has
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the electrical
plug provided with the appliance – if it does not fit the
electrical outlet, have a qualified electrician install a
proper outlet. Make sure the power supply and electrical
outlet support a 110/120V, 15 amp single-phase
circuit.
Warning!
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor may result in
electric shock. If you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded, check with a qualified electrician or service representative.
Important!
To prevent accidents, injury and fire, read instructions carefully before you
install the machine.
A qualified installer familiar with all local codes and ordinances for plumbing
and electricity should do the installation and grounding. Incorrect installation
may cause damage or injury.
Install washer/dryer on a strong, level floor in a protected, dry and well-
ventilated area with room for electrical cords and hoses behind the machine.
Temperature should be not less than 38° F (3° C)
Make sure power supply and outlet support a 110/120 V, 15 amp single-
