INSTALLING THE WASHER
8. Attach the U-shaped hose guide to the end of
the drain hose. Place the hose in a laundry tub or
standpipe and secure it with the cable tie provided in
the enclosure package.
NOTE: Placing the drain hose too far down the drain pipe
can cause a siphoning action. No more than 7 inches of
hose should be in the drain pipe. There must be an air
gap around the drain hose. A snug fit can also cause a
siphoning action.
Cable Tie
9. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
NOTE: Check to be sure the power is off at the circuit
breaker/fuse box before plugging the power cord into
an outlet.
