IMPORTANT

Make sure the drain hose is not kinked and the water flow is not restricted.

Standpipe Drain System:

When a stanpipe installation is used it must be at least 1¼" (3.2 cm) in diameter with a minimum carry away capacity of 7 gallons (26 liters) per minute.

Wall or Floor Standpipe Drain:

Top of standpipe must be at least 25" (62 cm) high and no higher than 34" (86 cm) from bottom of washer (A & B).

Sink Drainpipe System:

You should carefully position the drain hose to avoid kinks and ensure proper drainage of the water. Use a drain loop or suitable clamp to support drain hose at 25" (62 cm) minimum 34" (86 cm) maximum. The outlet end of the drain hose must be at least 20" (50 cm) above the base of the machine. Entry into sink drain system must be above trap. When routing the drain hose through cabinets or walls assure no ruff or sharp edges can damage the drain hose. All sharp edges MUST be covered by a protective material such as electrical or duct tape. Use a drain hose clamp to secure drain hose to "Wye" Branch or Disposer (not included).

•You may connect directly to a "Wye" Branch Tailpiece available at most hardware stores.

•You may connect directly to a Disposer by following the manufacturer attachment method.

•You may connect directly through the floor to a separate trap. The trap must be vented to prevent siphoning. To provide proper venting; install an Air Gap Kit available at most hardware stores.

•You may connect to the manufacturers sink drain kit (sold separately) that will supply water from your faucet and discharge water directly into your sink.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Read all instructions before using the appliance.

•Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned washed or spotted with gasoline dry cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances as they emit vapors that could ignite or explode.

•Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary.

•Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded remove the door to the washer-dryer compartment.

•Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

•Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather

•Do not tamper with controls.

•Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recom- mended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

•Do not add gasoline dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

•Under certain conditions, Hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using this combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated Hydrogen Gas.

•Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similar textured rubber-like materials.

•Keep the surrounding areas free from accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

•The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodi- cally by qualified service personnel.

•Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

•Clean drain filter assembly at front of machine regularly.
