Maytag MHN33PRCWW Commercial 27" Commercial Front Load Washer

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Remove Transport System

IMPORTANT: Position the washer so that the rear of the washer is within approximately 3 ft. (900 mm) of its final location. There are 4 shipping bolts in the rear panel of the washer that support the suspension system during transportation. These bolts also retain the power cord inside the washer until the bolts are removed.

1. Keep the washer in the upright position while removing the shipping bolts.

2. Using a ½" wrench, loosen each of the bolts.

3. Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer covering the bolt.

4. Once all 4 bolts are removed, discard the bolts and spacers. Then push the power cord plug into the opening on the right side of the rear panel and pull the power cord through the opening on the left side of the rear panel and close holes with the attached cap. Do not pull plug end of power cord through the right side hole.

5. Close the bolt holes with the 4 transport bolt hole plugs.

NOTE: If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your product distributor or installer. To avoid suspension and structural damage, your washer must be properly set up for relocation by a trained professional.

Connect the Inlet Hoses

Insert new flat washers (supplied) into each end of the inlet hoses. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.

A. Coupling
B. Washer

Connect the inlet hoses to water faucets

Make sure the washer drum is empty.

1. Attach a hose to the hot water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
2. Attach a hose to the cold water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-thirds turn.

NOTE: Do not overtighten, use tape, or sealants on the valve. Damage to the valves can result.

Clear water lines

• Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a laundry tub, drainpipe, or bucket, to get rid of particles in the water lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.
• Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.

Connect the inlet hoses to the washer

1. Attach the hot water hose to the check valve on washer’s hot (H) water inlet valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the check valve.
2. Attach the cold water hose to the check valve on washer’s cold (C) water inlet valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the check valve.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-thirds turn.
4. Turn on the water faucets completely and check for leaks and at washer connection.

NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on the hoses for future reference.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.

Connect the Drain Hose

Remove drain hose from washer drum

1. Use locking pliers, squeeze hose clamp tabs together and insert over the end of drain hose.

3. Once drain hose is in place, release pliers.

Washer drain system can be installed using a floor drain, wall standpipe, floor standpipe, or laundry tub.

Laundry tub drain or standpipe drain

Connect the drain hose form to the corrugated drain hose.

To keep drain water from going back into the washer:

• Use the drain hose form, and do not 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.

Floor drain

You may need additional parts. See Floor drain under “Tools and Parts.”

Secure the Drain Hose

Drain hose must be secured to stop the hose from moving when water is pumped out. If the drain hose moves, water may end up on the floor.

It is the responsibility of the installer to install and secure the drain hose into the provided plumbing/drain in a manner that will avoid the drain hose coming out of or leaking from the plumbing/drain.

1. Drape the power cord over the washer top.
2. Move the washer to its final location.
3. Place the drain hose in the laundry tub or standpipe as shown. See illustrations A and B.

NOTES:

■ Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the washer.

■ To avoid siphoning, do not seal or put more than 4½" (114 mm) of the drain hose into drainpipe or standpipe.

Level the Washer

Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and vibration.

1. Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the top edge of the washer, first side-to-side, then front to back.

If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the front with a wood block and adjust the feet as necessary; then, prop the back and adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this step until washer is level.

2. Make sure all four feet are stable and resting on the floor. Then check that the washer is perfectly level (use a level).

3. After the washer is level, use a 9⁄16" open-end wrench to turn the nuts on the feet tightly against the washer cabinet.

IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tightened. If the nuts are not tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.

4. The washer should not move front to back, side to side, or diagonally when pushed on its top edges.

5. Slide the washer to its final location.

6. Confirm the levelness of the washer.

Complete Installation

1. C heck the electrical requirements. Be sure that you have the correct electrical supply and the recommended grounding method. See “Electrical Requirements.”
2. Check that all parts are now installed. If there is an extra part, go back through the steps to see which step was skipped.
3. Check that you have all of your tools.
4. Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.
5. Check that the water faucets are on.
6. Check for leaks around faucets and inlet hose

Warning

7. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

8. To test and to clean your washer, measure ½ the detergent manufacturer’s recommended amount of High Efficiency (HE) detergent for a medium-size load. Pour the detergent into the detergent dispenser. Select any cycle and allow the washer to complete one whole cycle.

General User Information

SCROLLING ‘OUT OF ORDER’ SHOWING IN DISPLAY

This condition indicates the washer is inoperative.

‘0 MINUTES’ SHOWING IN DISPLAY

This indicates the cycle is complete and the washer cannot be operated. Coins dropped or debit inputs during this condition will be stored in escrow but cannot be used until normal operation is restored by opening and closing the door. If a door switch fails, it must be replaced before normal operation can be restored.

COLD START (Initial first use)

Washer is programmed at the factory as follows:

11-minute wash period

3 rinses (extra rinse not enabled)

$1.75 wash price (PD models)

$0 00 wash price (PR models) WARM START (after power failure)

A few seconds after power is restored, if a cycle was in progress at the time of the power failure, ‘RESELECT CYCLE’ will flash in the display, indicating the need for a key press to restart the washer.

DOOR LOCK

Prior to beginning a cycle, there is a door lock routine of lock/ unlock/relock; then cycle begins. The door will remain locked until the end of a cycle or approximately 2 minutes after a power interruption.

PRICING

After the door is opened following the completion of a cycle, the display indicates the cycle price (unless set for free operation). As coins are dropped or debit inputs arrive, the display will change to lead the user through the initiation of a cycle.

FREE CYCLES

This is established by setting the cycle price to zero. When this happens, ‘SELECT CYCLE’ will appear rather than a cycle price.

DEBIT CARD READY

This washer is debit card ‘cable’ ready. It will accept a variety of debit card systems, but does NOT come with a debit card reader.
