Installing the Washer
Step 1:
Position Washer Near Installation Area
IMPORTANT: Install dryer before washer. This
allows room for attaching exhaust duct.
Move washer so that it is within four feet of the
desired area of installation.

Step 2:
Connect Water Inlet Hoses
NOTE: Refer to section on Water Supply
Requirements before connecting water inlet hoses.
Remove the four plain rubber washers from
accessories bag, and install them according to the
illustration.
Turn on the water supply faucets and flush the lines for
approximately two minutes to remove any foreign
materials that could clog the filter screens in the inlet
hoses, or the screens in the water mixing valve.
NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or
renovated building, it is very important to flush the
lines since build-up may have occurred during
construction.
IMPORTANT: Thread hose couplings onto valve
connections finger-tight, then approximately 1/4
turn with pliers. DO NOT cross thread or
overtighten couplings.
Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found,
retighten the hose couplings. Continue tightening and
rechecking until no leaks are found.

Step 3:
Connect Drain Hose to Drain Receptacle
Remove the drain hose from its shipping position on
the rear of the washer by unhooking the hose from the
retainer clamp.
Find the instructions, on the following pages, that are
appropriate for your type of drain receptacle
(standpipe, sink, wall, or laundry tub). Follow these
instructions to properly install the drain hose.
IMPORTANT: Drain receptacle must be capable of
handling a minimum of 1-1/4 inch (32 mm) outside
diameter drain hose.
Standpipe Installation:
Place the drain hose into the standpipe.
Remove the beaded tie-down strap from accessories
bag and place around standpipe and drain hose and
tighten strap to hold hose to standpipe. This will
prevent the drain hose from dislodging from drain
receptacle during use.
IMPORTANT: To prevent siphoning, do not place
any ribbed portion of the drain hose into the
standpipe.

Sink Installation:
For this type of installation, use the beaded tie-down
strap (supplied in accessories bag), or use a large wire
tie (available from your local hardware store) and
secure the drain hose to the cabinet top hinge (see
illustration). This will prevent the drain hose from
dislodging during use.
In The Wall Installation:
For installations of this type, the drain hose MUST be
secured to one of the inlet hoses using the beaded tie-
down strap from accessories bag.
NOTE: End of drain hose must not be below 24".
Laundry Tub Installation:
For this type of installation, the drain hose MUST be
secured to the stationary tub to prevent hose from
dislodging during use. Use the beaded tie-down strap
(supplied in accessories bag) to secure hose.

Step 4:
Position and Level the Washer
Place washer in position on a clean, firm and
reasonably level floor. Installing the washer on any
type of carpeting is not recommended.
Loosen 7/8" locknut and adjust the front and rear
leveling legs until the washer is level from side to side
and front to back (using a level). Washer should not
rock.
NOTE: Level must rest on raised portion of top
panel. See illustration.
Tighten the locknuts securely against the washer
base using the 7/8" wrench. If the locknuts are not
tight, washer will move out of position during
operation.
NOTE: DO NOT slide washer across floor if the
leveling legs have been extended, as legs and base
could become damaged.
NOTE: Use of the dispenser drawer or washer door
as a handle in the transportation of the washer may
cause damage to the dispenser or door.
Remove rubber feet from accessories bag and place on
all four leveling legs.
Washers elevated above floor level must
be anchored to that elevated surface, base
or platform. The material used to elevate
the washer should also be anchored to the
floor to ensure that the washer will not
walk or that the washer can not be
physically pulled, tipped or slid from its
installed position. Failure to do so may
result in conditions which can produce
serious injury, death and/or property
damage.

Electrical Requirements
(120 Volt, 60 Hertz with 3-Prong Grounding Plug)
NOTE: The wiring diagram is located in the
control hood.
Grounding Instructions
The washer must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. The washer is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and a 3-prong grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the washer – if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
NOTE: Have a qualified electrician check the
polarity of the wall receptacle. If a voltage reading
is measured other than that illustrated, the
qualified electrician should correct the problem.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or
personal injury, all wiring and grounding
MUST conform with the latest edition of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, and
such local regulations as might apply. It is
the customer’s responsibility to have the
wiring and fuses checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure your home has
adequate electrical power to operate the
washer.
W028
WARNING
D009IE1A
DO NOT OVERLOAD CIRCUITS
DO NOT USE ADAPTER
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Improper connection of the equipment-
earthing conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt
as to whether the washer is properly
grounded.

Water Supply Requirements
NOTE: Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4
inch (19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings. DO
NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON
CONNECTIONS.
NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily
accessible to permit turning them off when washer
is not being used.
Water Temperature
Cold:
Recommended cold water temperature is 60° to 80°
Fahrenheit, 16°to 27°Celsius.
Hot:
Recommended hot water temperature is 120°to 140°
Fahrenheit, 49°to 60°Celsius.
Warm:
Mixture of hot and cold water. (Warm water
temperature is dependent upon the water temperature
and the pressure of both the hot and cold water supply
lines.)
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply faucets after
check-out and demonstration. Owner should turn
off water supply whenever there will be an
extended period of non-use.
NOTE: Longer inlet hoses are available (as
optional equipment at extra cost) if the hoses
(supplied with the washer) are not long enough for
the installation. Order hoses as follows:
No. 20617 Inlet Hose (8 ft) (2.44 m)
No. 20618 Inlet Hose (10 ft) (3.05 m)
Water Pressure
Pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of
120 pounds per square inch (138 to 827 kPa) static
pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per
square inch (138 kPa) will cause an extended fill
time in the washer and may not properly flush out
the detergent dispenser.
Risers
Risers (or air cushions) may have to be installed if the
pipes knock or pound when flow of water stops. The
risers are more efficient when installed as close as
possible to the water supply faucets (see illustration
below).
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water system that
has not been used for two weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot
water system has not been used for such a
period and before using the washer, turn on
all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The
gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
