Connect Drain Hose
Proper connection of the drain hose protects your floors from damage due to water leakage.
Read and follow these instructions.
The drain hose is connected to your washer and is stored inside the washer cabinet.
Remove drain hose from washer cabinet
Pull the corrugated drain hose out of the washer by first grabbing the pull tie. Continue to pull
the hose until the end emerges. Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the
washer.
Laundry tub drain or standpipe drain
Connecting the drain hose form to the corrugated drain hose
To keep drain water from going back into the washer:
■ Do not 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.
Floor drain
Do not install the drain hose form on to the corrugated drain hose. You may need additional
parts. See Floor drain under “Tools and Parts.”
