Wash Basin
• , WARNING
SCALDING
When washing at high temperatures, there is a risk
of scalding if you touch hot suds, e.g. when
pumping out hot suds into a wash basin.
Do not reach into the hot suds.
Note: APPLIANCE DAMAGE/DAMAGE TO TEXTILES
If the end of the drain hose touches the discharge water
(water drained from washer) it (the discharge water) can
be sucked back into the appliance and may damage the
appliance or textiles.
Make sure that:
o There is no stopper in the sink drain.
o The end of the hose does not touch the discharge
water.
o The sink drain is free flowing and not partially
clogged.
Attach the drain hose securely to the wash basin.
NOTICE: In any multi-story installation, the washer
should be installed on a drained floor to prevent water
damage to rooms below in the event of a leak.
Leveling the washer
Importance of leveling the washer
Your new washer uses high spin speeds to remove water
at the end of the wash cycle. It is important that your
washer is level and that all four washer feet press with
equal pressure against the floor. This will help assure the
quietest, most vibration-free use of your washer.
Follow these steps:
1. Install the washer on a level and solid surface,
preferably in a corner of a room.
2. If the floor is uneven (or unlevel) adjust the washer feet
as required to level the washer. Do not place anything
under the washer feet to help level the washer.
3. Extend the washer feet no more than is necessary. The
more the feet are extended, the more vibration the
washer will experience. Start with the washer feet
turned all the way in and adjust each foot as
necessary.
4. Use a bubble level to check the top of the washer to
make sure it is level side to side and front to rear.
5. Press down on each corner of the washer top to make
sure the washer doesn't "wobble". There should be no
"give" or movement. All four washer feet should press
equally against the floor. This is just as important as
the washer being level to prevent vibration.
6. When the washer is level and does not wobble, lock
the washer feet in place by tightening the Iocknuts
against the washer bottom. Be sure to do this without
changing the height of the foot (hold the foot while
tightening the Iocknut).
Procedure for adjusting the washer feet:
1. After determining which washer feet need to be
extended, have someone lift up on the washer slightly
to take pressure off the foot to be adjusted.
2. Turn the grey plastic foot to extend it downward as far
as necessary to raise the corner of the washer the
correct amount to level the washer.
=
When the height of the foot is correct, use a 17 mm
open end wrench to tighten the Iocknut against the
washer bottom. The Iocknut should be tight against the
bottom of the washer to lock the foot in place.
Electrical connection

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor may result in electric shock. Have the
appliance checked by a qualified technician or
licensed electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the washer has been properly grounded.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO
NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to
