CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

• The drain hose that is enclosed with the dryer must
be connected to the nozzle in the rear of the cabinet
before using the dryer in order to drain the condensed
water from the compressor.
• The drain hose is not connected with the steam
functions of the dryer and must be connected even if
you do not use the steam functions of the dryer.
warnIng
w
Failure to connect the drain hose before using the
dryer may result in dryer malfunction, electric shock,
or flooding.
• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
flooding and property damage.
• Do not install the end of the drain hose higher than 4.2
feet (1.3 m) above the bottom of the dryer.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched, pinched,
crushed, or kinked.
Option 1: Using a standpipe
Correct Connection
4.2 feet
(1.3 m)
The maximum water drain
height is 4.2 feet (1.3 m)
Install the end of the drain hose into the elbow bracket.
Do not extend the drain hose more than 4 inches past
the end of the elbow bracket. Use a tie strap to secure
the drain hose in place.
notE
If the drain hose is too long, cut it to the proper length
to fit the installation location. If it is too short, attach
an extension hose (not included) using the hose
extension connector included with the dryer.
Use the following alternatives to the standpipe:
• If you do not have a standpipe.
• if the standpipe in your home is too narrow to
accommodate both the hose from your washer and the
drain hose from the dryer.
• if your washer drain is higher than 4.2 feet (1.3 m).
Incorrect Connection
Make sure that the hose
is not twisted
Option 2: Using a Y connector
Install a Y connector in your standpipe.
Option 3: Using a laundry tub or
bucket
As shown below, the drain hose can be connected to a
laundry tub or utility sink. The elbow bracket should be
installed near the end of the drain hose. Hang the end of
the drain hose over the side of the utility sink. Use a tie
strap to secure the drain hose in place.
If necessary, the hose can also be drained into a floor
drain or bucket. If a bucket is used, the bucket must then
be emptied periodically. Install the elbow bracket near
the end of the drain hose. Hang the end of the drain
hose over the side of the bucket. Make sure to stabilize
the bucket if necessary so it won't tip over. Secure the
hose if possible.
• The amount of water produced may change depending
on the kind of load, the moisture in the load and the
size of the load. Some loads may produce little or no
water, other loads may produce up to 12 oz. (360cc) or
more.
• If the length of the drain hose is too short to reach the
laundry tub or bucket, purchase an extension hose
and attach it to the existing drain hose using the hose
extension connector included with the dryer.

Do not drink the water from the drain hose. The water
contains impurities and may cause illness or personal
injury.
