WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock.
Check with a licensed electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

1. The washer MUST be grounded. In the event

of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electrical shock by a path of
least resistance for electrical current.

2. Since your washer is equipped with a power

supply cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug, the plug
MUST be plugged into an appropriate, copper
wired receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Codes, ANSI/NFPA
70 (latest edition). If in doubt, call a licensed
electrician. DO NOT cut off or alter the grounding
prong on the power supply cord. In situations
where a two-slot receptacle is present, it is
the owner’s responsibility to have a licensed
electrician replace it with a properly grounded
three prong grounding type receptacle.

Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed
within hose length of your washer’s water inlet. The
faucets MUST be 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) with thread-
ing for laundry hose connection. Water pressure
MUST be between 30 and 120 psi. Pressure differ-
ence between hot and cold cannot be more than
10 psi. Your water department can advise you of
your water pressure.

1. Drain capable of eliminating 17 gals (64.3 L) per

minute.

2. A standpipe diameter of 1-1/4 in. (3.18 cm)

minimum.

3. The standpipe height above the fl oor should be:

Minimum height: 24 in. (61 cm)
