LOCATION OF YOUR WASHER
DO NOT Install the Washer:
- In an area exposed to dripping water or outside weather conditions. The ambient temperature should never be freezing or near freezing for proper washer operation.
- In an area where it will come in contact with curtains or drapes.
- On carpet. The floor MUST be a hard surface with a maximum slope of 1/2” per foot (1.27 cm per 30 cm). To make sure the washer does not vibrate or move, you may have to reinforce the floor.
NOTE: If floor is in poor condition, use 3/4″ impregnated plywood sheet solidly attached to existing floor covering.
WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
WATER SUPPLY LINES – Purge Hot and Cold water supply lines for 30 seconds
prior to installation of hoses and washing machine. Ensure inlet hose screens
are also clean and free of debris.
WATER PRESSURE – Must be 20 psi minimum to 120 psi maximum. NOTE: The
20 psi minimum pressure is the “dynamic” pressure, that is the actual pressure
at the water valve inlet while the washer is actively filling with water.
WATER TEMPERATURE – Household water heater should be set to deliver water
at 120° to 150°F (50° to 66°C) TO THE WASHER when hot wash is selected.
SHUTOFF VALVES – Both hot and cold shutoff valves (faucets) should be
supplied.
DRAIN – Water should be drained into standpipe. Discharge height MUST NOT
BE LESS THAN 30 INCHES, and no more than 8 feet above the base of the washer.
Standpipe must be 1-1/2 inches minimum inside diameter and must be open to
atmosphere.
UNPACKING THE WASHER
After the machine is in the home, remove outside packing material/carton from
washer.
Remove bag (containing clamp, cable tie and drain hose clip), drain hose and
Owner’s Reference Guide from tub.
NOTE: Leave foam shipping material inside tub opening to hold tub in
place during the rest of installation.
REMOVE THE BASE
Remove base from unit by placing foot on side of base and tipping unit back on corner post. Remove base by pulling it straight off. Bring the washer back upright.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Before you call for service
Problem | Possible Causes | What To Do |
---|
Small amount of water remaining in dispenser (on some
models) at end of cycle| Normal dispenser operation| It is
normal for a small amount of water to remain in dispenser after the cycle.
Short spray or turn on of drain pump and delay after pushing the Start
button| Lid was opened and closed between cycle selection and start|
This is normal. See START-UP SEQUENCE in the Safety Instructions section.
Water level seems low| This is normal| Water may not cover
the top level of the clothes. This is normal for this high efficiency washer.
Low water flow| Water valve screens are
stopped up| Turn off the water source and remove the water connection
hoses from the upper back of the washer and the water faucets. Clean both the
hose screens (if so equipped) and the screens in the machine using a brush or
a toothpick. Reconnect the hoses and turn the water back on. Check to ensure
there are no leaks at the connections.
Low water supply pressure| If water pressure at the washer inlets is
less than 20 psi while the washer is actively filling, call a plumber to
assess your water supply and make corrections needed to increase the water
pressure.
Water siphoning out of washer| Drain standpipe is too low
or hose too far into standpipe| The drain hose must exceed 30″ height
at some point between the washer back and the drain pipe. Use anti-siphon
clip. See the Installation Instructions.
Too many suds| Soft water| Try less detergent.
Too much detergent| Measure your detergent carefully. Use less
soap if you have soft water, a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
Type of detergent| Switch to High Efficiency detergent such as
Tide PODS™ and liquid detergents.
Water leaks| Type of detergent| Switch to High Efficiency
detergent such as Tide PODS™ and liquid detergents.
