Parts Included

An accessories bag has been shipped inside your washer. It includes:

• Two fill hoses with washers and filter screens. Refer to step 3 of Installation.

• Four rubber feet. Refer to step 5 of Installation.

• Beaded strap. Refer to step 4 of Installation.

• Installation Instructions.

• User's Guide.

• Warranty Bond.

NOTE: If the washer is delivered on a cold day

(below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area during the cold months, do not attempt to operate it until the washer has had a chance to

warm up. NOTE: Install dryer before washer. This allows

room for attaching exhaust duct.

Installation

Step 2: Wipe Out Inside of Washtub

Step 1" Remove the Shipping Brace and Shipping Plug

Remove the shipping brace from under the lid. The shipping plug will be released from the base of the

washer when removing the cardboard base from the washer. Refer to Figure 3.

NOTE: Do not tilt washer to front or sides when

moving.

Save the shipping brace and plug. They must be reinstalled whenever washer is moved or transported to a new location. This will prevent damage to the

washer. Refer to the User's Guide for instructions on reinstalling the shipping materials.

Prior to first wash, use an all purpose cleaner, or a detergent and water solution, and a damp cloth to remove shipping dust from inside of washtub.

Step 3: Connect Fill Hoses

WARNING

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system

that has not been used for two weeks or

more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If

the hot water system has not been used for such a period and before using the

washer, turn on all hot water faucets and

let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any

accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Water Supply

Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT

USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CON2qECTIONS.

Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to permit turning them off when washer is not being

used. Recommended cold water temperature is 50° to

75 ° Fahrenheit (10 ° to 24 ° Celsius). Recommended maximum hot water temperature is 125 ° Fahrenheit (51 ° Celsius). Warm water is a mixture of hot and cold

water. Warm water temperature is dependent upon water temperature and pressure of both the hot and cold water supply lines.

W029

(40% Hot)

NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per square inch (138 kPa) will cause an extended fill

time in the washer.

Turn on the water faucets and flush the lines for approximately two minutes to remove any foreign

material that could clog the screens in the water mixing valve.

NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or

renovated buildings, it is very important to flush the lines since build-up may have occurred during

construction.

Connecting Hoses

Remove the two plain rubber washers and two filter screens from the accessories bag. Install them into each end of the fill hoses as shown in Figure 5. The screen must be facing outward.

Screw hose couplings with the filter screens onto the water faucets until they are finger-tight. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Use the red

color-coded hose for the hot water connection and the blue color-coded hose for the cold water connection.

Screw hose couplings from other end of hoses onto the water mixing valve until they are finger-tight. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Refer to

Figure 6. Make sure the red color-coded hose from the

hot water faucet goes to the water mixing valve marked "H" and the blue color-coded hose from the

cold faucet goes to the valve marked "C".

IMPORTANT: Do not cross thread or overtighten couplings. This will cause them to leak.

Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found, turn off the water, unscrew hoses and reinstall them

until there are no leaks.

IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever there will be an extended period of non-use.

WARNING

To prevent personal injury, avoid contact with inlet water temperatures higher than

125 ° Fahrenheit (51 ° Celsius) and hot surfaces.

W748

Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 120 pounds per square inch (138 to 827 kPa) static pressure measured at the faucet.
