CONNECT DRAIN HOSE

For standpipe or laundry tub drain systems:
• Open yellow, single-wire clamp with pliers and
slide over hooked end of drain hose to secure the
rubber and corrugated sections together.
• Put hooked end of drain hose into laundry tub or
standpipe. Rotate hook to eliminate kinks in the hose.
To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of drain hose. Do not
force excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should
be secure, but loose enough to provide a gap of air.
• Do not lay excess drain hose in bottom of laundry tub.
