Proper routing of the drain hose protects your floors from
damage due to water leakage. Carefully read and follow these
instructions.
The drain hose is connected to your washer.
To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
Do not straighten the drain hose, and do not 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.

You may need additional parts. See Floor Drain under "Tools and

the beaded strap provided. (See illustrations A and B.)

water inlet hoses and the drain hose.
Do not force excess drain hose into the standpipe.
