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 in a

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.

STEP 3

Installing your Washer

1. Ifyou use a stand pipe, make sure the connection

between the drain hose and the standpipe is NOT

airtight. The standpipe must be at least 18 in or 46

cm high.

You must always exercise caution to avoid

collapsing or damaging the drain hose. For best

results, the drain hose should not be restricted

in any way - by elbows, couplings, or excessive

length. For situations where the drain hose cannot

be conveniently elevated to at least 18 in or 46 cm,

the drain hose must be supported.

If drain hose is installed below 18"(46cm), water

can be drained in cycle working cause of siphon

phenomenon. It causes the washer to "nF" error.

2. Check the inlet hose to ensure a washer is inside each fill hose.

Thread the inlet hoses to the HOT and COLD faucet connections.

On the other end of the hose, check for one rubber washer per hose

and attach each fill hose to the water valve. Make sure the hose with

Hot printed on it is attached to the HOT faucet. Tighten by hand until

snug, then two-thirds of a turn with pliers.

For correct water use, connect both HOT and COLD water valves. If

either or both are not connected, an "nF" (no fill)error can occur.

** The dot symbols represent appropriate wash water temperatures for various items. The temperature

range for Hot is 105° - 125 °F / 41° _52 °C, for Warm 85° - 105 °F / 29° - 41 °C and for Cold 60° - 85 °F

/ 16° - 29 °C. (Wash water temperature must be a minimum of 60 °F / 16 °C for detergent activation and

effective cleaning.) The clothes washer can not ensure these temperatures because the actual temperature

of the water entering your washer is dependent on water heater settings and regional water supply

temperatures. For example, cold water entering the home in the northern states during winter may be

40 °F / 4 °C which is too cold for effective cleaning. The water temperature in this situation will need to be

adjusted by selecting a warm setting, adding some hot water to the MAX FILL line or using your washer's

heating option, if available.
