properly installed and grounded outlet.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical
shock. Check with a qualifi ed 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
does not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
To prevent unnecessary risk of fi re, 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.
Never connect ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
WARNING
Water
To correctly fi ll your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20-116psi(137-
800kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 20 psi(137kPa) may cause water valve failure,
or may not allow the water valve to shut off completely. Or, it may extend the fi ll time beyond
what your washer controls allow, resulting in your washer turning off. A time limit is built into the
controls in the event of an internal hose becoming loose and fl ooding your home.
The water faucets must be within 4 ft.(122cm) of the back of your washer for the inlet hoses
provided with your washer.
Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 ft.(305cm) 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 fi ttings.
Check all connections at the water valve and faucet for leaks.
WARNING
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.
