When removing the washer from the carton

base, be sure to remove the foam tub support

in the middle of the carton base.
If you must lay the washer down to remove the

base packaging materials, always lay it carefully

on its side. Do NOT lay the washer on its front

or back.
IMPORTANT: To prevent internal damage

during transport, the washer is equipped with

4 shipping bolts and plastic retainers. These

bolts and retainers

MUST be removed before

operating the washer.
• Failure to remove shipping bolts and retainers

may cause severe vibration and noise, which can

lead to permanent damage to the washer. The

cord is secured to the back of the washer with

a shipping bolt to help prevent operation with

shipping bolts in place.

Remove the retainers by turning them slightly

while pulling. Rotate and press the hole caps

into the shipping bolt holes.

Starting with the bottom 2 shipping bolts,

use the included wrench to remove the

4 shipping bolts by turning them

counterclockwise.
