Form a "U" shape on the end of the drain hose with
the hose pointed toward the drain. Place the formed
end in a laundry tub or a standpipe and secure with
a cable tie provided in the enclosure package.
NOTE:
The standpipe inside diameter must be
1-1/4" (3.18 cm) minimum. There must be
an air gap around the drain hose in the
standpipe. A snug hose fit can cause a
siphoning action.

Determine which water faucet is the
HOT
water
faucet and carefully connect the bottom inlet hose to
the
HOT
water faucet, tighten by hand, then tighten
another 2/3 turn with pliers. Carefully connect the
top inlet hose to the
COLD
water faucet, tighten by
hand, then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers.
DO NOT CROSS THREAD OR

5.
Carefully move the washer to its final location.
6.
To ensure the washer is level and solid on all four
legs, open the lid, grasp the top panel and tilt the
washer forward so the rear legs are off the ground.
Gently set the washer back down to allow the rear
legs to self adjust. Place a level on top of the washer.
Check it side to side, then front to back. Screw the
front leveling legs up or down to ensure the washer
is resting solid on all four legs (no rocking of the
washer should exist).
NOTE:
Keep the leg extension at a minimum to
prevent excessive vibration. The farther out
the legs are extended, the more the washer will
vibrate.
8. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
NOTE:
Check to ensure the power is off at a circuit
breaker/fuse box before plugging the
power cord into an outlet.
9. Turn on the power at a circuit breaker/fuse box.

for water leaks and proper operation.
12. If your washer does not operate, please review the
“Avoid Service Checklist” located in your Owner’s
