Grounding Instructions

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 three-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.

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 16, the

qualified electrician should correct the problem.

Step 9: Check Installation

Refer to Installer Checklist on the back cover of this

manual and make sure that washer is installed

correctly.
Run washer with a test load to make sure it is

operating properly and properly leveled.

a. Put about six pounds of laundry (four bath

towels and three jeans) into washer.

b. Close door.
c. Rapid advance to spin portion of cycle.
d. When washer spins at high speed, verify that

it is stable.

e. If it is not, after cycle is complete, refer to

Step 2 and readjust leveling legs.

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.
