Recessed area or closet installation
Dimensions show recommended spacing allowed, except for
closet door ventilation openings which are minimum required.
This washer has been tested for installation with spacing of
0" (0 mm) clearance on the sides. Consider allowing more space

appliances and clearances for walls, doors, and floor moldings.
