INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WATER SUPPLY
To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 20 to
100 psi (100 to 500kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 20psi may cause water
valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shut off completely, or may extend
the fill time beyond what your washer controls allow, causing your washer to turn off
and indicate an error. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your
home if a hose becomes loose.
The water faucet must be within 4 feet/122cm of the back of your washer to match
the inlet hoses provided with your washer.
A water heater should be set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
- Have water faucets easily accessible.
- Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.
DRAINING
The drain hose is connected to the bottom side of the unit. The other end of the
hose should be positioned using one of the following methods:
Standpipe
The standpipe must be no shorter than 23.5" (60cm) and no taller than 39" (100cm)
from the bottom of the washer.
The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The
standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.
Sink
The top of the sink must be no shorter than 23.5" (60cm). The capacity of the sink
should be a minimum of 20 gallons (76L).
