Put hooked end of drain hose into laundry tub or standpipe.
Rotate hook to eliminate kinks in the hose.
To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of drain hose. Do not force
excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure,
but loose enough to provide a gap of air.
• Do not lay excess drain hose in bottom of laundry tub.
• For floor drain installation, see kit number required under
