INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
fl
ooding and property damage.
• Do not install the end of the drain hose higher than 96
in. (243.8 cm) above the bottom of the washer.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any
applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched, pinched,
crushed, or kinked.
Install the end of the drain hose into the elbow bracket.
Do not extend the drain hose more than 4 inches past the
end of the elbow bracket. Use a tie strap to secure the
drain hose in place.
NOTE:
• Total height of the hose end should not exceed 96 in.
(243.8 cm) from the bottom of the washer.
• The drain hose should be inserted no more than 8–12
inches into the standpipe. Inserting the hose more than
8-12 inches can cause mold or microorganisms to
spread to the inside of the washer.
If the water valves and drain are
built into the wall, fasten the drain
hose to one of the water hoses with
the tie strap (ribbed side on inside).
NOTE:
A drain hose extension kit is
available if the drain hose is not
long enough. Do not extend the
drain hose more than 6 feet, as
this will cause poor draining,
which will result in poor wash
and spin performance.
Option 1: Standpipe
Option 2: Laundry Tub

The elbow bracket should be installed near the end of
the drain hose. Hang the end of the drain hose over the
side of the utility sink. Use a tie strap to secure the drain
hose in place.
Insert the end of the drain hose into the
fl
oor drain.
If possible, secure the hose to prevent it from moving or
coming out of the drain.
