BASIC LOCATION REQUIREMENTS:

ELECTRICAL

• 120 Volt 60 Hz 15 AMP Fuse or Circuit Breaker

• Individual branch circuit serving only the washer is recommended.

• The washer is equipped with a power cord.

NEVER USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

GROUNDING

ELECTRICAL GROUND IS REQUIRED ON THIS APPLIANCE.

Appliance is equipped with a power cord having a 3-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and
grounded outlet.

ADDITIONAL GROUNDING CONNECTIONS

A grounding kit (Part No. 12001875) is available. It contains the ground wire,
clamp, ground screw and washer. Connect the ground wire to back of unit
with the cabinet ground screw and washer. Secure the other end of ground
wire to a grounded COLD metal water pipe.

NEVER CONNECT GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES OR HOT WATER
PIPES.

WATER

To correctly fill the washer in the proper amount of time, Water pressure of 20 to 120 p.s.i. is required.
Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause a failure in the water valve and may not allow the water
valve to shut off completely. Or may extend the fill time beyond what the washer controls will normally
allow and result in the washer turning off. A time limit is built into the controls in the event of an
internal hose becoming loose and avoids a flooded home.

The water valve Hot and Cold water faucets must be within 4 feet of the back of the washer for inlet
hoses provided with the washer. NOTE: Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to
10 feet for faucets more than 4 feet from the back of the washer.

•

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

•

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 ordinances. It is the personal responsibility and obli­gation of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.
