Location Requirements - Inglis IFR42001 Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room,
closet, or recessed area. See "Drain System."
IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to the weather.
Proper installation is your responsibility.
You will need:
A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.
A grounded electrical outlet located within 5 ft (1.5 m) of
where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer.
See "Electrical Requirements."
Hot and cold water faucets located within 3½ ft (1.1 m) of the
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of
20-100 psi (137.9-690 kPa).
A level floor with a maximum slope of ¾" (1.9 cm) under
entire washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not
recommended.
A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water
and load) of 260 lbs (118 kg).
Do not store or operate your washer in temperatures at or below
32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See "Washer Care" for winterizing
information.
