SET UP & USE

For best performance, you must install your washer on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations.

- Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibration which can cause your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle.

BLACK & DECKER BPWM16W - SET UP & USE - 1

CAUTION: Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since washer will always retain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas.

Frozen water can damage the belts, the pump, hoses, and other components. Never install on a platform or weakly supported structure.

ELECTRIC

Use 120Volt 60Hz 15 Amps fuse or circuit breaker. Individual branch circuit serving only for your washer is recommended.

BLACK & DECKER BPWM16W - ELECTRIC - 1

CAUTION: Never use an extension cord.

GROUNDING

Electrical grounding is required for this washer.

This appliance 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. This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

BLACK & DECKER BPWM16W - GROUNDING - 1

CAUTION: An improperly connected equipment-grounding conductor can increase the risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are not sure whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/FNPA, No.70 Latest Revision and local codes and ordinances. It is the personal responsibility of the appliance owner to provide adequate electrical service for this appliance.

BLACK & DECKER BPWM16W - GROUNDING - 2

WARNING: Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

SET UP & USE

To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 14 to 70psi (100 to 500 kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 14psi may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shot off completely, or may extend the fill time beyond what your washer controls allow, causing your washer to turn off and alarm error. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your home if a hose becomes loose.

The water faucet must be within 4 feet / 122cm of the back of your washer to match the inlet hoses provided with your washer.

To avoid the possibility of water damage:

  • Operate with cold water only.
  • Have water faucets easily accessible.
  • Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.
  • Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.

DRAIN FACILITY

The recommended height of the standpipe is 35in. or 90cm. The drain hose must be routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.

INSTALL YOUR WASHER

Before installing, make sure there are rubber gaskets inside the fittings at both ends of the water supply hoses.

If there are no water inlet hoses packed with the washer or if the hoses are damaged, Call the Customer Satisfaction Center at 1-844-299-0879. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber. gaskets can cause water leakage. When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses. Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and may damage your property. If a hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.

Step 3: Connect the water hose

TEMPORARY CONNECTION

  • The Quick Connection Adaptor is primarily for quick connection to a single faucet, such as a typical kitchen sink, in cases where the washer is stored in a different place than where it is used. (Skip this step if you are connecting the washer to a sink with separate hot and cold faucets. See PERMANENT INSTALLATION section below.) The adaptor consists of two parts that quickly connect or disconnect. One part, the faucet fitting, is for connection to the faucet and the other part, the hose fitting, connects to the COLD water hose of the washer.
  • Pull back on the white ring to free the faucet fitting from the adaptor for installation into the faucet.
  • Screw the end of the COLD water hose onto the base of the hose fitting.
  • If the faucet has internal screw threads, unscrew the aerator if present from the tip of the faucet. Then screw the faucet fitting into the faucet. Make sure that the black rubber gasket is on the top of the adaptor before screwing it in.
  • If the faucet has external screw threads, remove the gasket from the top of the faucet fitting, and screw the fitting over the external threads.
  • Pull back on the white ring to connect the two parts of the adaptor back together.

The water supply hose connected to the HOT faucet must be connected to the HOT water supply inlet and the water hose connected to the COLD water source must be connected to the COLD water supply inlet.

- Tighten the fitting by hand until it is snug, and then tighten them an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench/pliers.

Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause electric shock due to the water leakage. To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the HOT and COLD water faucets. If they are not both connected an error can occur.

If you do not want to use the HOT water supply hose, install the water inlet cap into the HOT water supply inlet hole In this case, you must select cold water as the wash temperature choice.

Turn on the HOT and COLD water supplies and check all the water supply inlet connections and the faucets for water leaks.

Step 4: Connect the drain hose

The drain hose is connected to the bottom side of the unit. The other end of the hose should be positioned using one of the following methods:

SET UP & USE

A. Over the edge of a wash basin. Secure the guide to the side of the basin wall with a hook or to the tap with a piece of string to prevent the drain hose from moving.
B. In a standpipe The standpipe must be no shorter than 32 in. (81cm) and no longer than 39 in. (100cm).
C. In a laundry tub. The laundry tub must be no shorter than 32 in. (81cm) and no higher than 39 in. (100cm).

Normal/Eco is the recommended wash cycle to wash up to a full load of normally soiled cotton or linen clothing. The cycle (Normal/Eco on large load size and cold water temperature) has a much longer spin time (86 minutes) than other cycles, which removes more water from your clothes than other cycles, providing you with energy savings when drying your clothes in your dryer. Hot and warm water temperatures are the same when using Normal/Eco. If you need a higher temperature wash, use a different program.

** The number of dots represent appropriate wash water temperatures for various items. The temperature range for Hot is 105°-125°F/41°-52°C, for Warm 85°-105°F/29°-41°C and for Cold 60°-85°F/16°-29°C.(Wash water temperature must be a minimum of 60°F/16°C for detergent activation and effective cleaning.)The clothes washer can

not ensure these temperatures because the actual temperature of the water entering your washer depends on water heater settings and regional water supply temperatures.

For example, cold water entering the home in the northern states during winter may be 40^ F/ 4^ C which is too cold for effective cleaning. In this situation, you will need to adjust the water temperature by selecting a warm setting, adding some hot water to the MAX FILL line, or using your Washer's heating option, if available.
