Drain facility
The recommended height of the standpipe is 39 in / 99 cm. The drain hose must be routed
through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the
outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached to the washer at the factory.
Flooring
For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors
may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting
and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move
slightly during the spin cycle.
Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.
Location considerations
Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain
some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the belts, the
pump, hoses, and other components.

STEP 2
Connecting the water and the drain
Connecting the water supply hose
Before installing the water supply hoses, make sure there are
rubber gaskets inside the fittings at both ends of each new
water hose. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber
gaskets can cause water leakage.
When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses.
Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and
may damage your property.
Do not connect multiple water supply hoses together to
increase the length of the supply hose. Hoses connected this
way can leak and the leakage can cause electrical shock. If a
hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure
hose.
1. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the HOT and COLD faucets.
2. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an
additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
When you fasten the fittings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply
tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can
damage the fittings.
After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets,
ensure that they are connected correctly by pulling the water supply
hoses downwards
3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open
the faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15
seconds to remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the
faucets before continuing.
4. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply
intake connections at the back of the washer.
The water supply hose connected to the HOT faucet must be
connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose
connected to the COLD faucet must be connected to the COLD
water supply intake.
5. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them
an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the HOT and
COLD water faucets. If either or both are not connected, an
“4E” (no fill) error can occur.
If you do not want to use the HOT water supply hose, insert
the water intake cap into the HOT water supply intake hole. In
this case, you must select the Tap Cold option for the water
temperature.If you select the Tap Cold option, all the lamps for
the water temperature options are turned o.
Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If
the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause
electric shock due to the water leakage.
6. Turn on the HOT and COLD water supplies and check all the water
supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

Connecting the drain hose
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in
three ways:
Over the edge of a wash basin
Secure the guide to the side of the basin wall
with a hook or to the tap with a piece of string to
prevent the drain hose from moving.
In a standpipe or laundry tub
The standpipe must be no shorter than 39 in (99
cm) and no longer than 96 in (245cm).
Make sure that the connection between the
drain hose and the standpipe is not airtight.
STEP 3
Leveling your washer
See if the washer is level by checking the position of the tub:
1. Slide the washer into position.
2. Open the lid of the washer, and pour the water into the tub to
just below the pulsator level.
3. If the washer is level, the pulsator is positioned at the center of the
water as shown in the figure. If not, level your washer by turning the
front leveling feet clockwise or counterclockwise as necessary.
Turn the front leveling feet clockwise to raise the washer, and
counterclockwise to lower the washer.
