See Electrical Requirements. STANDPIPE DRAIN SYSTEM must be able to accept 1-1/2 inch O.D. drain hose. Standpipe height of 36 inches is recommended. The drain must permit 23 gallon per minute flow to evacuate the washer. NOTE: @ If the standpipe height is less than 3 feet or greater than 5 feet, refer to the "DRAIN FACILITY" section to determine if special provisions are needed. HOT AND COLD WATER FAUCETS NOTE: must be within 4 feet of the back of the washer. For installations requiring longer hose length, it is recommended to purchase double male 3/4" NH coupling and Maytag hose #33-7046 or equivalent.

ELECTRICAL GROUND THIS APPLIANCE. IS REQUIRED ON Appliance is equipped with a power cord having a 3-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet. Additional Ground Procedure: If a separate ground is required by local codes a grounding kit (Part No. 12001875) containing accessory ground wire, clamp, ground screw and washer can be purchased. Contact your authorized Maytag dealer for further assistance. Follow ALL grounding requirements and codes. A proper external ground MUST be determined prior to wire hookup. Consult local building officials and a qualified electrician if in doubt. EXPORT MODELS - 50 HZ AND 60 HZ A washer must be used on the voltage and frequency it was designed for. It should be operated on an individual branch circuit and fused by no less than a 15 amp fuse or circuit breaker for 120 volt units or 10 amp fuse or circuit breaker on 220-240 volt units. Export models may require the addition of a plug on the power cord. It is the responsibility of the installer to assure that this has been done properly. Check the data plate to be sure of voltage and line frequency requirements. EXPORT-specific grounding instructions must be determined due to variation of electrical services. WATER Water pressure of 30 to 120 p.s.i, is required to correctly fill the washer to the proper levels. Pressures of less than 30 p.s.i, may cause a failure to the water valve. The valve might not shut off completely. TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF WATER DAMAGE, SHOULD A HOSE LEAK, ALWAYS HA VE FAUCETS A CCESSIBLE AND TURN OFF FAUCETS WHEN WASHER IS NOT IN USE.

The standpipe must be large enough to accept a 1-1/2 inch outside diameter drain hose. For best performance, the washer must be installed on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Without the 36" high elevation, water may run out of the washer prematurely. A possible sign that the drain hose has not been elevated to proper height is if the washer fills and drains at the same time. The drain hose is attached at the factory. A drain that will permit 23 gallons per minute flow is required to evacuate the washer. The standpipe should have a 1-1/2 inch minimum internal diameter to prevent siphoning. Tight connections between the drain hose and the drain (standpipe, etc.) are not recommended since they violate most plumbing codes. In most cases where a tight connection is demanded, an antisiphon valve should be placed in the drain hose to prevent water from siphoning from the washer or facility during agitation. If required, an antisiphon valve (Part No. 12001586) is available from your dealer or store. Refer to the drain height drawing to determine if special provisions must be taken for the drain hose and pump: ® ® Between the floor and 3 feet, the routing of the drain hose is critical. Be sure that at If installing on carpeting, be sure there is adequate clearance between carpet and moving parts beneath the washer. LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS It is recommended the washer never be installed in areas where water may freeze, since the washer will always maintain some water in the water valve, pump and hose areas. This can cause damage to belts, pump, hoses and other components. Operating temperature should be above 60°F. COLD WEATHER STORAGE The following precautions should be taken if a washer is to be stored where it would be subject to freezing conditions. least some portion of the hose reaches a height of 3 feet before running to the drain. 1. Turn off the water supply, inlet hoses. Between 2. Select a fill cycle and energize the water valve by selecting a warm water setting. A few seconds of fill is sufficient. 3 feet and 5 feet is the recom- mended drain height. © Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are also contributing factors in vibration and/or tendency for a washer to move slightly during spin cycle. Never install washer on a platform or weak supported structure. For drain heights greater than 5 feet, a high-volume pump (Part No. 12001587) may improve draining performance, especially if the unit provides a customized cycle with a slow spin speed (refer to the User's Guide). If the drain hose needs to be extended to reach the drain facility, an accessory kit must be obtained (Part No. 12001585). If a highvolume pump is purchased, the extension kit is included. Contact your authorized Maytag dealer for further assistance. 3. Disconnect from electrical and remove the supply. 4. Lower the drain hose to floor level and tip the washer on its back to allow water to drain from the pump and drain hose. 5. Return washer to upright position. 6. 30 day detergent dispenser should be completely emptied (on models so equipped).

A small amount of water may still be in the drain hose from factory testing. The height of the drain facility is important. Refer to the "DRAIN FACILITY" section to determine if special provisions are needed. NOTE: Do not remove the hose retainer from the drain hose. If the hose is twisted after it has been placed in the drain, adjust the end of the hose to remove the twist. To remove the twist, turn the short end of the hose while holding the base of the hose stationary. NOTE: If you must make an airtight seal, an antisiphon kit must be used• ,.
