Grounding Information

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 in 

Figure 13

, the 

qualified electrician should correct the problem.

NOTE: The wiring diagram is located in the 
control hood.

Step 7: Add Water to the Washer

To prevent damage to pump, do not run washer before 

adding at least one quart water to the tub. If the washer 

is run before any water is added, the pump seal may 

overheat causing the pump to leak. Once installed, the 

water retained in the drain system from the previous 

cycle will provide sufficient cooling to prevent pump 

seal damage.

NOTE: The agitator should not be removed except 
for service. The washtub is designed to be self-
cleaning.

Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk 
of electric shock. Check with a qualified 
electrician or service person if you are in 
doubt as to whether the washer is 
properly grounded.

plug.
