Installing the Washer
Step 1: Position Washer Near Installation
Area
Move washer so that it is within 1.2 meters (4 feet) of
the desired area of installation.
NOTE: For best performance and to minimize
vibration or movement, install washer on a solid,
sturdy and level floor. Some floors may need to be
reinforced, especially on a second floor or over a
basement. Do not install the washer on carpeting,
soft tile, a platform or other weakly supported
structures.
Figure 3
Step 2: Connect Fill Hoses
Water Supply
Water supply faucets must fit standard 19.1 mm
(3/4 inch) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT
USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CONNECTIONS.
Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to
permit turning them off when washer is not being
used.
Recommended cold water temperature is 16° to 27°
Celsius (60° to 80° Fahrenheit). Recommended
maximum hot water temperature is 51° Celsius
(125° Fahrenheit). Warm water is a mixture of hot and
cold water. Warm water temperature is dependent
upon water temperature and pressure of both the hot
and cold water supply lines.
Water pressure must be a minimum of 138 to a
maximum of 827 kPa (20 to 120 psi) static pressure
measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 138 kPa (20 psi) will
cause an extended fill time in the washer and may
not properly flush out the detergent dispenser.
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains
using new hose-sets and old hose-sets should not be
reused.

Maintenance
User-Maintenance Instructions
Lubrication
All moving parts are sealed in a permanent supply of
lubricant or are equipped with oilless bearings.
Additional lubrication will not be necessary.
Do not lubricate the door hinge. If the hinge makes
noise, replace the hinge.
Cold Weather Care
If the washer is delivered on a cold day (below
freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area
during the cold months, do not attempt to operate it
until the washer has had a chance to warm up.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the
control panel. Some cleaning product sprays may
harm the finish on the control panel or damage the
interior.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent,
bleach or other washing products are spilled on the
cabinet, wipe immediately. Some products will cause
permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
The wash drum will need no particular care although it
may need rinsing or wiping after an unusual load has
been washed.
The outside of the door window can be cleaned with
household window cleaner.
Running an occasional rinse cycle with bleach will
help to avoid a musty smell in the wash drum.
Cleaning Glass Sealing Area
In order to assure that the door properly seals against
water leaks, the following surfaces should be wiped
off periodically:
•The outside perimeter of the door glass where the
seal contacts the glass
•The front surface of the door seal lip
Usually a mild soap solution will work. If there is an
extreme build-up of minerals from a hard water
supply, the surfaces may need to be cleaned with a
lime removal chemical.
Replacing Hoses
Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after
extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or
material wear from the temperature and constant high
pressure they are subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a monthly basis for
any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing
the signs of deterioration listed above should be
replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced
every five years.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or
damage annually. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal,
check the filter screens. Clean or replace them if
necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. F270300 from the nearest
authorized parts distributor.
Vacations and Extended Non-Use
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage
due to flooding, turn off the water supply to the
washer whenever there will be an extended period
of non-use.
Leave the loading door open during extended periods
of non-use to allow the wash drum to dry out and
avoid a musty smell.
