INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
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 (2m), as this will
cause poor draining, which will
result in poor wash and spin
performance.
Install the end of the drain hose into the elbow bracket.
Do not extend the drain hose more than 4 inches
(10 cm) past the end of the elbow bracket. Use a tie
strap to secure the drain hose in place.
NOTE:
Total height of the hose end should not exceed 96 in.
(243.8 cm) from the bottom of the washer.
The drain hose should be inserted no more than
8-12 inches (20-30 cm) into the standpipe. Inserting
more than 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) can cause mold
or microorganisms to spread to the inside of the
washer.
If the water valves and drain
are built into the wall, fasten the
drain hose to one of the water
hoses with the tie strap (ribbed
side on inside).
