Key Parts and Components

Accessories Tools Needed in Installation

Key Dimensions and Specifications Choose the Proper Location

  • Flooring
    For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations.
    – Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.
    Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always retain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. Frozen water can damage the belts, the pump, hoses, and other components. Never install on a platform or weakly supported structure.

  • Electric
    Use 120Volt 60Hz 15 Amps fuse or circuit breaker.
    Individual branch circuit serving only for your washer is recommended.
    Never use an extension cord.

  • Grounding
    Electrical grounding is required for this washer.
    This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
    This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.
    The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
    An improperly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.
    Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

  • Water
    To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 14 to 70psi (100 to 500 kPa) is required.
    Water pressure less than 14psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shot off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your washer controls allow, causing your washer to turn off and alarm 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.
    To avoid the possibility of water damage:
    – Have water faucets easily accessible – Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.
    – Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.

  • Drain facility
    The recommended height of the standpipe is 35in. or 90cm.
    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.

Install Your Washer
Before installing, make sure there are rubber gaskets inside the fittings at both ends of the water supply hoses.
If there are no water inlet hoses packed with the washer or if the hoses are damaged, Call Midea Service Center at 1-866-646-4332 Installing the water supply hoses without rubber gaskets can cause water leakage.
When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses. Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and may damage your property.
If a hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.

  • Step 1: Move your washer to selected position
    Tilt the unit back onto its rear rollers and push it forward as shown in the figure below. Move the unit to a location as described in the previous Choose the Proper Location section. Make sure the location has a hard, level surface without carpeting.
    There should be no direct sunlight.
    Do not expose the unit to freezing temperatures (under 32° F or 0° C).

  • Step 2: Install the Bottom Cover
    Slide the bottom cover into the slots on bottom surface of the unit as in the following figure, and fix it with screw attached with the unit.

  • Step 3: Connect the water hose
    1.The Quick Connection Adaptor is primarily for quick connection to a single faucet, such as a typical kitchen sink, in cases where the washer is stored in a different place than where it is used. Skip this step if you are connecting the washer to a sink with separate hot and cold faucets.
    The adaptor consists of two parts that quickly connect or disconnect. One part, the faucet fitting, is for connection to the faucet and the other part, the hose fitting, connects to the cold water hose of the washer.
    – Pull back on the white ring to free the faucet fitting from the adaptor for installation into the faucet.
    – Screw the end of the cold water hose onto the base of the hose fitting.
    – If the faucet has internal screw threads, unscrew the aerator if present from the tip of the faucet. Then screw the faucet fitting into the faucet. Make sure that the black rubber gasket is on the top of the adaptor before screwing it in.
    – If the faucet has external screw threads, remove the gasket from the top of the faucet fitting, and screw the fitting over the external threads.
    – Pull back on the white ring to connect the two parts of the adaptor back together.
    NOTE:
    When connected to a single faucet, be sure to only run cold water washers. 2.Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the COLD faucets. For convenience, use the Quick Connection Adaptor for connection to the cold water faucet. See instructions for Quick Connection Adaptor use in Step 1 above.
    3.Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
    When you fasten the fittings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can damage the fittings. After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets, ensure that they are connected securely by pulling the water supply hoses downwards.
    4.Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open the faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15 seconds to remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the faucets before continuing.
    5. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply in take connections at the top of the washer. The water hose connected to the COLD faucet must be connected to the cold water supply intake.
    6.Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
    Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause electric shock due to the water leakage .To ensure the correct water usage, connect the COLD water faucets. 7. Turn on the COLD water supplies and check all the water supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

  • Step 4: Connect the drain hose

** The number of dots represent appropriate wash water temperatures for various items. The temperature range for Hot is 105°-125°F/41°-52°C, for Warm 85°-105°F/29°-41°C and for Cold 60°-85°F/16°-29°C.(Wash water temperature must be a minimum of 60°F/16°C for detergent activation and effective cleaning.)The clothes washer can not ensure these temperatures because the actual temperature of the water entering your washer depends on water heater settings and regional water supply temperatures.
For example, cold water entering the home in the northern states during winter may be 40°F/4°C which is too cold for effective cleaning. In this situation, you will need to adjust the water temperature by selecting a warm setting, adding some hot water to the MAX FILL line, or using your Washer’s heating option, if available.
