2. Attach the drain hose to the drain hose connection on the back of the appliance; position the hose clamp approximately 3/8 inch (9 mm) from the end of the hose. 3. Tighten the clamp with a screwdriver. In-Wall Installation q Use the elbow. Attach the elbow to the end of the hose and insert the end of the hose into the wall drain approximately four inches. q The hose and elbow should extend into the open drain pipe as far as the elbow allows when seated as shown in the above picture. q Use a strap or cable tie to hold hose in place. Electrical connection GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakĆ down, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This appliance features a cord with an equipmentĆgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet which has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local regulations and ordinances. d WARNING Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor may result in electric shock. Have the appliance checked by a qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as to whether the washer has been properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit in the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. d WARNING The washing machine must only be connected to an individual branch circuit via a socket which has been properly installed and grounded. The household electrical voltage must correspond to the voltage specification on the washing machine (rating plate, see page 27). Connection specifications as well as the required fuses are stipulated on the appliance rating plate. Volts 110-120 Hertz 60 Amperes 15 Watts 1350 (max.) Make sure that: - the power plug fits into the socket. - the wire size is sufficient. - the grounding system is properly installed. The power cord may be replaced by an electrician only. Replacement power cords are available from Customer Service. d WARNING To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to connect the washing machine to the power supply. Use of a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is recommended. Do not insert/remove the power plug with wet or damp hands. Touch the plug only when removing the plug from the socket. d CAUTION TO AVOID RISK OF INJURIES-Take care when using the wrench. Leveling Procedure 1. The appliance should now be in its final position, ready for leveling (moving the appliance after leveling can make it unlevel again.) Each foot of the appliance or pedestal must be placed firmly on the floor to prevent the washing machine from wobbling. Start with all four feet screwed in as far as possible, then back individual feet out as necessary to level the washer. 2. Use a bubble level (24" or less in length) to level the washer front to back and side to side (be sure the level fits between the edges of the washer, and is not elevated at one end on a ridge on the surface of the washer.) 3. Adjust the leveling of the washer with the four height-adjustable feet. Level the washer as low as possible to help reduce vibration. q Loosen the lock nut (1 on the illustration) by turning it clockwise. Use the wrench provided (or a 5/8" - 16mm open end wrench). When you turn the lock nut, the foot (2 on the illustration) it is locked against will turn with it. This will extend the height of the foot. 10

Leveling
Procedure
1.
The
appliance
should
now
be
in
its
final
position,
ready
for
leveling
(moving
the
appliance
after
leveling
can
make
it
unlevel
again.)
Each
foot
of
the
appliance
or
pedestal
must
be
placed
firmly
on
the
floor
to
prevent
the
washing
machine
from
wobbling.
Start
with
all
four
feet
screwed
in
as
far
as
possible,
then
back
individual
feet
out
as
necessary
to
level
the
washer.
2.
Use
a
bubble
level
(24"
or
less
in
length)
to
level
the
washer
front
to
back
and
side
to
side
(be
sure
the
level
fits
between
the
edges
of
the
washer,
and
is
not
elevated
at
one
end
on
a
ridge
on
the
surface
of
the
washer.)
3.
Adjust
the
leveling
of
the
washer
with
the
four
height-adjustable
feet.
Level
the
washer
as
low
as
possible
to
help
reduce
vibration.
q
Loosen
the
lock
nut
(
1
on
the
illustration)
by
turning
it
clockwise.
Use
the
wrench
provided
(or
a
5/8"
-
16mm
open
end
wrench).
When
you
turn
the
lock
nut,
the
foot
(
2
on
the
illustration)
it
is
locked
against
will
turn
with
it.
This
will
extend
the
height
of
the
foot.
