Grounding Instructions

The washer 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.
The washer is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a three-prong

grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an

appropriate outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances.

• DO NOT modify the plug provided with the

washer – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

• If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not

meet the above specifications and/or if you are

not sure the laundry room has an effective

ground, have a qualified electrician or your local

electrical utility company check it and correct

any problems.

Step 7: Add Water to the Washer

To prevent damage to pump, do not run washer before

adding at least one quart water to the tub. If the washer

is run before any water is added, the pump seal may

overheat, causing the pump to leak. Once installed, the

water retained in the drain system from the previous

cycle will provide sufficient cooling to prevent pump

seal damage.

NOTE: The agitator should not be removed except

for service. The washtub is designed to be self-

cleaning.

Step 8: Check Lid Switch

Step 9: Check Installation

Refer to Installer Checklist on the back cover of this

manual and make sure that washer is installed

correctly.
Run washer through one complete cycle to make sure

it is operating properly.

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk

of electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician or service person if you are in

doubt as to whether the washer is

properly grounded.
