INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
flooding and property damage.
• Do not install the end of the drain hose higher than 96
in. (243.8 cm) above the bottom of the washer.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any
applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched,
pinched, crushed, or kinked.
NOTE:
A drain hose extension kit is
available if the drain hose is
not long enough. Do not extend
the drain hose more than 6 feet
(1.83 m), as this will cause poor
draining, which will result in poor
wash and spin performance.
Option 1: Standpipe
Install the end of the drain hose into the elbow bracket.
Do not extend the drain hose more than 4 inches
(10 cm) past the end of the elbow bracket. Use a tie
strap to secure the drain hose in place.
NOTE:
• Total height of the hose end should not exceed 96 in.
(243.8 cm) from the bottom of the washer.
• The drain hose should be inserted no more than
8–12 inches into the standpipe. Inserting more
than 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) can cause mold or
microorganisms to spread to the inside of the
washer.
If the water valves and
drain are built into the
wall, fasten the drain hose
to one of the water hoses
with the tie strap (ribbed
side on inside).
