Individual branch circuit serving only your washer is recommended. Your washer is equipped with a power cord.

Z_ 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 ina

properly installed and grounded three-prong 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.

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 of the

appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

i_X NEVER CONNECT THE GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES, OR

....... HOT WATER PIPES.

Water

Using bad quality water may cause the water supply valve to operate abnormally.

To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20-116 psi (137-

800 kPa)is required.

Water pressure less than 20 psi may cause water valve failure, may not allow the water valve to

shut off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your washer controls allow, causing

your washer to turn off. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent extensive flooding in your

home if an internal hose becomes loose.

The water faucets must be within 4 feet / 122 cm of the back of your washer to match the inlet

hoses provided with your washer.

[_ ccessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet/305 cm 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. CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS AT THE WATER VALVEAND FAUCET FOR LEAKS.

WARNING

14 Hnstalling your washer

Drain facility

The recommended height of the standpipe is 18 in/46 cm. 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. The drain hose is attached at the factory.

Flooring

For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors

may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.

Location considerations

Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Freezing water can damage the belts,the pump, hoses and other components.
