to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.
Never use an extension cord.
Use only the power cord that comes with your washing machine.

Yourwashingmachinemustbegrounded.Ifyourwashingmachinemalfunctionsorbreaks
down, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
the electric current.
Yourwashingmachinecomeswithapowercordhavingathree-pronggroundingplugforusein
a properly installed and grounded outlet.
Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
Improperlyconnectingtheequipment-groundingconductorcanresultelectricalshock.
