The outlet must be correctly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Warning
• You are responsible for providing adequate electrical services for your
washer.
• An incorrectly connected equipment-grounding conductor can
increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if you are not sure whether your washer is grounded
correctly.
• Do not modify the power cord plug that came with your washer. If the
plug does not fit the outlet, have the correct type outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
• To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all
wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National
Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and
ordinances.
• Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or
hot water pipes.

Water requirements

To fill your washer in the correct amount of time, the water pressure needs to be between 14 and 116 psi (100 to
800 kPa).
If the water pressure is less than 14 psi (100 kPa):
• The water valve may fail or may not shut off completely.
• The time it takes to fill your washer may be longer than the time your washer controls allow. Your washer will turn
off and report an error. A time-limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes
loose.
• Water inlet hoses must be purchased separately. You can buy inlet hoses in various lengths up to 8 ft. (240 cm).
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
• Make sure that the water faucets are easily accessible.
• Turn off the faucets when you are not using your washer.
• Periodically check to make sure that water is not leaking from the water hose fittings.

Drainage requirements

Note
The drain hose is attached to the washer at the factory.
• The recommended height for the drain standpipe is 48 in. (122 cm).
• The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe.
• The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.
