How to Install the Washing Machine
1. Lay the washing machine down on its back.
2. Pull the drain hose out of the washing machine.
3. Insert the narrow part of the drain hose into the clamp on the
washing machine.
4. Stand the washing machine up.
5. Insert the end of the drain hose into the drain channel.
■
Do not allow the drain hose to be bent, twisted, pulled out and
damaged, stepped on, or crimped.
■
Spread a cloth on the ground before laying the washing machine down
on its back to prevent damaging it.
■
Use a knife to cut the end of the drain hose at a 45 degree angle
because if the drain channel is shallow and the end of the drain hose is
blocked, it could cause a malfunction.
■
Keep the top of the drain hose no more than 10 cm above the fl oor if it
crosses a door sill or something else. If it is higher than this, the water
has diffi culty draining and a "C2" error (water does not drain) may
occur.
■
Do not extend the drain hose more than 2 meters from the washing
machine.
