CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE
• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
flooding and property damage.
• Do not install the end of the drain hose lower than 29
in. (73.7 cm) or higher than 96 in. (243.8 cm) above the
bottom of the washer.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any
applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched, pinched,
crushed, or kinked.
NOTE:
A drain hose extension kit is
available if the drain hose is not
long enough. Do not extend the
drain hose more than 6 feet, as
this will cause poor draining,
which will result in poor wash
and spin performance.
