Grounding Information

The washer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

The washer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a 3-prong grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Step 7: Add Water to the Washer

To prevent damage to pump, do not run washer before adding at least one quart water to the tub. If the washer is run before any water is added, the pump seal may overheat causing the pump to leak. Once installed, the water retained in the drain system from the previous cycle will provide sufficient cooling to prevent pump seal damage.

NOTE: The agitator should not be removed except for service. The washtub is designed to be self- cleaning.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment- grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the washer is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the washer - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

NOTE: Have a qualified electrician check the polarity of the wall receptacle. If a voltage reading is measured other than that in Figure 13, the qualified electrician should correct the problem.
