DRAIN SYSTEM
The washer must drain into a sink or laundry
tub with a carry-away capacity of 7 gallons
(26.6 L) per minute. The top of the tub must be
at least 27
″
(68.6 cm) above floor, and no
higher than 48
″
(121.9 cm) from the bottom of
the washer.

Proper connection of the fill-and-drain hose will
protect your floors from damage due to water
leakage. To connect the hoses:
Connect Fill Hose
Attach the fill-and-drain hose to the cold water
(left) inlet valve. Tighten coupling by hand. Use
pliers to make an additional two-thirds turn.

Do not overtighten the couplings, or
damage to the valves may result.
The hot water (right) inlet valve is capped.
Leave this valve capped.

Open the clamp. Twist the hose back and
forth while pushing down onto drain con-
nector at the bottom of the washer. Con-
tinue until hose contacts the cabinet.
