- Electrical Shock Hazard
WARNING

(available at any hardware store) to rear of washer.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance 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. This appliance 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.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician,
or service representative or personnel, if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DO NOT
modify the plug on the power supply cord. If it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
WARNING
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within
42 inches (107 cm) of your washer’s water inlet. The
faucets MUST be 3/4” (1.9 cm) garden hose-type
so inlet hoses can be connected. Water pressure
MUST be between 10 and 120 pounds per square
inch. Your water department can advise you of your
water pressure. The hot water temperature should be
set to deliver water at 120° to 140°F (48°–60°C) to
provide proper Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
performance.
