damage due to water leakage. Carefully read and follow these
instructions.
The drain hose is connected to your washer and is stored inside
the washer cabinet.

top of the hose. Continue to pull the hose until the end emerges.

point where the corrugation begins.

Do not straighten the formed end of the drain hose and force
excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure but
loose enough to provide a gap for air.
Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.

hose. You may need additional parts. See Floor Drain under
