Secure Drain Hose
1. Drape the power cord over the console.
2. Move the washer to its final location and remove any
cardboard used to move washer.
3. Place the drain hose in the laundry tub or standpipe as
shown. See illustrations A and B.

put the hooked end of the drain hose in the standpipe as
shown. See illustration C.
NOTES:
■
Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the
washer.
■
To prevent siphoning, do not seal the drain hose into the
standpipe.
Level the Washer
Properly leveling your washer prevents excessive noise and
vibration.
1. Move washer to final location.
2. Check that the washer is level.
■
Check side to side and back to front by lining up the level
as shown in the following illustration.
3. If the washer is not level, prop up the front of the washer with
the wood block and adjust the feet up or down as necessary.
If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly
before tipping back. Repeat this step until washer is level.
