Cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the water
ll valves, and water pressure of 20–120psi (138–827 kPa).
You may use your washer’s water supply by purchasing the

■
Level oor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire

The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it
will be exposed to water and/or weather.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store dryer where it will
be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below 40°F
(4°C). Lower temperatures may cause dryer not to shut off at
end of automatic sensor cycles, resulting in longer drying times.
