Draining
Drain hose placement in a stand pipe or tub:
1
To guide the drain hose over the tub or standpipe
the hose guide must be fitted to the drain hose.
The height of the standpipe or tub should be
between 311/2”–471/4” (800–1200mm).
2
Secure the hose guide so it cannot become
dislodged from the standpipe or tub.
IMPORTANT!
●
If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the
standpipe or tub is less than 311/2” (800mm)
high, the washing machine will continuously drain
while being filled (siphon).
●
Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free
from lint or other obstructions, which may affect
how your machine works or may cause flooding.
Attaching drain hose to spigot:
1

Secure hose guide to back wall of cupboard using
a screw. The height of the drain hose should be
between 197/8”–311/2” (500–800mm) from
ground level.
