1. Open the washer lid. The latch under the dryer will keep the lid
open.
2. Pull the foam packing ring out of the washer.
NOTE: Keep the foam ring and use it when transporting your
washer/dryer. This packing material is used to keep the washer
tub stable during transport.
Proper connection of the drain hose protects your floors from
damage due to water leakage. To prevent the drain hose from
coming off or leaking, it must be installed according to the
following instructions:
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper installation, this procedure must
be followed exactly.
1. Check the drain hose to see whether it is the proper length.
2. Wet the inside of the straight end of the drain hose with tap
water.
IMPORTANT: Do not use any lubricant other than water.
3. Squeeze ears of the silver, double-wire
clamp with pliers to
open. Place clamp over the straight end of the drain hose
1A" (6.4 mm) from the end.
For laundry tub or standpipe
drain systems
1. Open the yellow, single-wire clamp and slide over the hooked
end of the drain hose to secure the rubber and corrugated
sections together.
A. Hooked end
B. Drain hose
Put the hooked end of drain hose into laundry tub or
standpipe. Rotate hook to eliminate kinks.
To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
Do not straighten hooked 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.
For use with floor drain
Remove the drain hose hook from the corrugated drain hose. You
may need additional parts. See "Floor drain" under "Alternate
Parts."
1. Insert a new flat washer (supplied) into each end of the inlet
hoses. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.
