WASHER SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
[] Read all instructions before using the washer.
[] Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned
in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,
dry=cleaning solvents, other flammable, or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
[] Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
flammable, or explosive substances to the wash water.
These substances give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
[] Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been used
for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. if the hot water system has not been
used for such a period, before using the washing
machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during
[] Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used
near children.
[] Before the washer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door or lid.
[] Do not reach intothe washer if the drum, tub or agitator is
moving.
[] Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to
the weather.
[] Do not tamper with controls.
[] Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in this manual or in

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, or
recessed area. See "Drain System."
Companion appliance location requirements should also be
considered.
iMPORTANT: Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to the weather. Do not store or operate the washer in
temperatures at or below 32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in
the washer and can cause damage in low temperatures. Proper
installation is your responsibility.
You will need:
[] A water heater set to 120°F (49°C).
[] A grounded electrical outlet located within 4ft. (1.2 m) of
power cord on back of washer. See "Electrical Requirements."
[] Hot and cold water faucets located within 4ft. (1.2 m) of hot
and cold water fill valves on washer, and water pressure
of 20-100 psi (138-690 kPa). A pressure reduction valve
should be used in the supply line where inlet pressure
entering the building exceeds 100 PSI (690 kPa) to avoid
damage to the washer mixing valve.
[] Single washer installations require 12" (300 mm) minimum
risers to provide an air cushion and avoid noise and damage
to valves.
[] A level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 ram) under entire
washer. Installing on carpet is not recommended.
[] Floor must support washer's total weight (with water and load)
of 315 Ibs (143 kgs).
[] A floor drain under the bulkhead. Prefabricated bulkheads
with electrical outlets, water inlet lines, and drain facilities
should be used only where local codes permit.
Recessed Area or Closet Installation
This washer may be installed in a recessed area or closet. The
installation dimensions shown are the minimum spaces allowable.
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation
and servicing. If closet door is installed, the minimum air openings
in top and bottom of door are required. Louvered doors with
air openings in top and bottom are acceptable. Companion
appliance spacing should be considered.

floor standpipe, or laundry tub. Select method you need.
Floor standpipe drain system
Minimum diameter for a standpipe drain: 2" (51 mm). Minimum
carry-away capacity: 10 gal. (38 L) per minute. Top of standpipe
must be at least 39" (990 ram) high; install no higher than
96" (2.44 m) from bottom of washer.
Floor drain system
(

ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into agrounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
[] A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical
supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
It is recommended that a separate circuit breaker serving only
this appliance be provided.
[] This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having
a 3 prong grounding plug.
[] To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet, grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet
is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation
of the customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
[] If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that
the ground path is adequate.
[] Do not ground to a gas pipe.
[] Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the
washer is properly grounded.
[] Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord=connected washer:
This washer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric
current. This washer is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a 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.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding 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 appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
For a permanently connected washer:
This washer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on the appliance.

iNSTALLATiON iNSTRUCTiONS
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install washer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
It is necessary to remove all shipping materials for proper

2. Use pliers to tighten the couplings an additional two-thirds turn.
C
iMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on valve
when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage can result.
Clear Water Lines
[] Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a laundry
tub, drainpipe, or bucket, to get rid of particles in the water
lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.
[] Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot
water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valve can result.
4. Turn on water faucets to check for leaks. A small amount
of water may enter washer. It will drain later.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on
the hoses for future reference.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.
