Draining
Drain hose placement in a stand pipe or tub:
To guide the drain hose over the tub or standpipe
1
the hose guide must be fitted to the drain hose.
The height of the standpipe or tub should be
between 31 1/2" – 47 1/4" (800 – 1200mm).
Secure the hose guide so it cannot become
2
dislodged from the standpipe or tub.
IMPORTANT!
If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the
● ●
standpipe or tub is less than 31 1/2" (800mm)
high, the washing machine will continuously drain
while being filled (siphon).
Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free
● ●
from lint or other obstructions, which may affect
how your machine works or may cause flooding.

between 19 7/8" – 31 1/2" (500 – 800mm) from
ground level.
Attach drain hose to spigot and secure using a

The drain hose should be checked from time to
● ●
time and replaced if any damage (eg wear, cuts,
bulges, kinks, leaks, etc) is found. Do not bend the
drain hose sharply, as this may cause it to split.
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the
