To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of the drain hose and 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.
For use with floor drain
Do not install the drain hose "hook" on to the corrugated drain
hose. You may need additional parts (see "Floor Drain" under
"Alternate Paris').
1o Insert a new flat washer (supplied) into each end of the inlet
hoses. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.

If you are working in a closet or recessed area
Move the laundry center into its final position and remove
cardboard from under laundry center. Remove the access panel
by removing two Phillips-head screws, located at the top of the
access panel. Set panel and screws aside. Complete hook-up of
water hoses, exhaust vent, and (on gas models) the flexible gas
connector through the access area. Replace access panel upon
completion of laundry center installation.
Check for leaks
9. Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks. A small
amount of water might enter the washer. You will drain this
later.

cardboard used to move the laundry center.
2. Locate the plastic strap included in the parts package.
