NOTE: If the washer is delivered on a cold day (below
freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area dur-
ing the cold months, do not attempt to operate it until
the washer has had a chance to warm up.
NOTE: Install dryer before washer. This allows room for
attaching exhaust duct.
NOTE: This appliance is suitable for use in countries
having a warm, damp climate.
Parts Included
An accessories bag has been shipped inside your washer. It in-
cludes:
• Two filter screen washers
• Two plain rubber washers
• Four rubber feet
• Beaded strap
• Product literature
Parts Needed
Two fill hoses are required for installation. Order 807239 Hose
Kit if needed. Kit includes two fill hoses color-coded for hot and
cold water.
If using any other hoses, follow these requirements:
• Hoses must be new.
• Hoses must be a minimum of 3/8 in. inside diameter. Smaller
inside diameter hoses will cause long fill times which could
create nuisance fill errors.
• The two plain rubber washers and two filter screens included
with the washer in the accessories bag must be installed in the
fill hose couplings. Refer to Connecting Hoses. The filter
screens help prevent foreign materials from clogging the wa-
ter mixing valve.

Remove the Shipping Brace and
Shipping Plug
1. Remove the shipping brace from under the lid.
2. The shipping plug will be released from the base of the wash-
er when removing the cardboard base from the washer.
The shipping brace and plug should be saved and must be rein-
stalled whenever washer is moved or transported to a new loca-
tion. This will prevent damage to washer components.
Do not tilt washer to front or sides when moving.
Refer to the User's Guide for instructions on reinstalling the ship-
ping materials.

WARNING
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be pro-
duced in a hot water system that has not been used
for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLO-
SIVE. 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 accumulat-
ed hydrogen gas. The gas is flammable. Do not
smoke or use an open flame during this time.

NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily accessi-
ble to permit turning them off when washer is not being
used.
Recommended cold water temperature is 50° to 75° Fahrenheit
[10° to 24° Celsius]. Recommended maximum hot water temper-
ature is 125° Fahrenheit [51° Celsius]. Warm water is a 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.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, avoid contact with inlet
water temperatures higher than 125° Fahrenheit [51°
Celsius] and hot surfaces.
W748
Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 120
pounds per square inch [minimum of 138 to a maximum of 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.
Turn on the water supply faucets and flush the lines for approxi-
mately two minutes to remove any foreign materials that could
clog the screens in the water mixing valve. This is especially im-
portant when installing your washer in a newly constructed or
renovated building. Build-up may have occurred during construc-
tion.
Connecting Hoses
1. Remove the two plain rubber washers and two filter screens
from the accessories bag.
2. Install them into each end of the fill hoses as shown in Figure
4 . The screen must be facing outward.
3. Screw hose couplings with the filter screens onto the water
faucets until they are finger-tight. Use the red color-coded
hose for the hot water connection and the blue color-coded
hose for the cold water connection.
4. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn.
5. Screw hose couplings from other end of hoses onto the water
mixing valve until they are finger-tight. Make sure the red
color-coded hose from the hot water faucet goes to the water
mixing valve marked “H” and the blue color-coded hose from
the cold faucet goes to the valve marked “C”. Refer to Figure
Figure 4 .
6. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT cross thread or overtighten
couplings. This will cause them to leak.
7. Turn water on and check for leaks.
8. If leaks are found, turn off the water, unscrew hoses and rein-
stall them until there are no leaks.
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever there
will be an extended period of non-use.

IMPORTANT:
Hoses and other rubber parts deteriorate after extend-
ed 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 re-
placed immediately. All hoses should be replaced ev-
ery five years.
Connect Drain Hose to Drain
Receptacle
1. Remove the drain hose from its shipping position on the rear
of the washer by unhooking the hose from the retainer clamp.
2. Install the drain hose into the drain receptacle (standpipe, wall
or laundry tub) following the instructions below.
NOTE: Drain receptacle must be capable of handling
a minimum of 1-1/4 inch [32 mm] outside diameter
drain hose.
