SECURE DRAIN

HOSE TO DRAIN

Remove drain hose from shipping

position on rear of washer by

unhooking hose from retainer

clamp. Use beaded tie-down

strap to secure “hook” end of drain

hose to standpipe, wall inlet hoses,

or laundry tub (must hold at least 20

gallons).

IMPORTANT: To prevent siphoning,

do not place ribbed portion of drain

hose into standpipe. Avoid air-tight

seal around standpipe adapter.

For standpipe installation below 36"

(91.4 cm), install Siphon Break Kit

part #562P3.

For standpipe installation above 48"

(121.2 cm), install a check valve to

prevent water from flowing back

into washer. Available from local

hardware store.
