• Provides mounting points and alignment for rear-mounted parts and brackets
• Helps reduce drafts, lint intrusion, and pest access through the appliance back
• Stops rattles or vibrations caused by a damaged or loose back panel

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water before starting; verify the appliance is fully de-energized
• Remove the dryer/washer top and/or access screws to detach the old rear panel; retain fasteners if reusing
• Align panel tabs and mounting holes, then secure with the correct screws; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage
• If the panel is rusted or sharp, wear gloves and eye protection during removal and installation
