• Do not modify the power cord and plug provided
with the appliance. Do not damage it when
installing or moving the appliance. Doing so may
result in death, fire, electric shock, or
malfunction.
• Make sure that the appliance is grounded.
• Connect this appliance to a grounded outlet
conforming to the rating prior to use. Failure to
do so may result in fire, electric shock, or
malfunction.
• Do not damage or cut off the ground prong of
the power cord. Doing so may cause death, fire,
electric shock, or product malfunction.
• Improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service technician if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. If
the plug does not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so
that the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not use an adapter or extension cord. Doing
so may result in serious injury, fire, electric
shock, or death.
• For best performance, plug the appliance into its
own individual outlet. This helps prevent
overloading house wiring circuits which could
cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
• If necessary, use a new, UL-listed 3-prong
(grounding) plug rated at no less than the
branch circuit. Do not use an extension cord
longer than 3 feet. Failure to follow these
warnings may result in serious injury, fire,
electric shock, or death.
Testing the Washer
Check if the washer is properly installed and run a
test cycle.
1
Load the washer with 6 thick bath towels
(approximately 6 pounds).
2
Press the Power button.
3
Press the Speed Wash button.
4
Select the Start/Pause button to start the
wash cycle.
5
Make sure that water is supplied, that the
washer does not rock or vibrate excessively,
and that it drains well during the spin cycle.
NOTE
• If water leaks during water supply, see
Connecting the Water Inlet Hoses to connect
them properly.
• If the appliance rocks and vibrates excessively,
see Leveling the Appliance to level it again.
• If the drain does not work, see Connecting the
Drain Hose to install the hose properly.
Testing the Dryer
Once you have completed the installation of the
appliance, use this test to make sure the condition
of the exhaust system is adequate for proper
operation of the appliance. This test should be
performed to alert you to any serious problems in
the exhaust system of your home.
Testing Dryer Heating
Gas Models
Close the dryer door and press the Power button
to turn the dryer on. Select the Timed Dry and
Start/Pause buttons to start the test. When the
dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main
burner.
NOTE
• If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas
igniter may turn off before the main burner
ignites. If this happens, the igniter will reattempt
gas ignition after approximately two minutes.
Electric Models
Close the dryer door and press the Power button
to turn the dryer on. Select the Timed Dry and
Start/Pause buttons to start the test. The exhaust
air should be warm after the dryer has been
operating for 3 minutes.
Checking Airflow
Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow.
The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by
evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in
the exhaust duct can be measured with a
manometer, placed on the exhaust duct
approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static
pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6
