INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before You Start

NOTE: To avoid floor damage, set the washer onto cardboard before moving across floor.

Remove Shipping Materials

Removing the shipping material is necessary for proper operation. If the shipping material is
not removed, the washer will make excessive noise.
1. Move the washer to within approximately 3 ft (90 cm) of its final location.
2. The washer must be in the upright position and not tilted before removing the shipping

material.

3. Locate the yellow shipping materials on the rear of the machine, near the bottom. Follow

the steps for your particular model, either the one with the straight power cord and cord
restraint or the looped power cord version.

Straight power cord

1. Remove power plug and yellow strap from machine base to release the rear leveling

system.

2. Firmly grasp the power cord and pull to completely remove the power cord, cord

restraint, and pin from the rear panel.

3. Confirm that the power cord restraint (A), and pin (B) are removed.

4. To remove the power cord from the cord restraint, push the power cord in, press TAB, and

then pull the power cord out.
