your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.
NEVER INSTALL ON A PLATFORM OR WEAKLY SUPPORTED STRUCTURE.
CAUTION
Drain facility
The recommended height of the standpipe is 48in. / 120cm.
The suitable drainage is available in various up to 96in. / 240cm.
The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe.
The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.

- Individual branch circuit serving only for your washer is recommended.
- Your washer is equipped with a power cord.
NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
CAUTION
Grounding
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING IS REQUIRED FOR THIS APPLIANCE.
- 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 power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for
use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
- The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
An improperly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of
electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not
sure whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance.
- If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring
and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordi
nances. It is the
personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical
service for this appliance.
WARNING
NEVER CONNECT THE GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS
LINES, OR HOT WATER PIPES.
CAUTION
Water
To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 14 to 116psi
(100 to 800kPa) is required.
- Water pressure less than 14psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the
water valve to shot off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your washer
controls allow, causing your washer to turn off and set off an error alarm. A time limit is
built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.
The water faucet must be within 4 feet / 122cm of the back of your washer to match the
inlet hoses provided with your washer.
Inlet hoses are available in va
rious lengths up to 8 feet / 240cm for faucets that are
further away from the back of your washer.
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
- Have water faucets easily accessible
- Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.
- Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.

detergents contain suds suppressors that reduce or eliminate

efficiency and cleaning is maximized.
- Reducing the amount of detergent may reduce the quality of
cleaning. It is important to pre-treat stains, sort carefully by color
and soil level, and avoid overloading.
