NOTICES
▯
The washing machine must only be operated with cold
and hot (max. 140 °F/60 °C) tap water. Do not
connect the appliance to the mixer tap of a
pressurized hot-water boiler.
▯
To prevent water damage, the hot and cold water
valves should be accessible when the washing
machine is in place and should always be turned off
when the washing machine is not in use.
▯
If installing the washing machine in a new building or a
building in which the plumbing system was recently
installed or upgraded, flush the lines before installing
the washing machine to remove any sand, dirt or
residue.
▯
To prevent leakage or water damage, follow the
instructions in this chapter.
▯
If in doubt, have the appliance installed by an
authorized service provider.
Connect your washer to the wall faucets using the
included AquaShield™ water supply hose.
Observe each of the following:
▯
Only use the new water supply hose shipped with your
washer. Never use old used hoses.
▯
The water supply hoses must not be kinked, bent, or
pinched causing hose damage or restricting water
flow.
▯
The water supply pressure must be between
14.5
to
145
psi (1 - 10 bar)
with a minimum of 2.2 U.S. gallons
(8 liters) of flow per minute. A pressure regulator valve
must be installed if the maximum water pressure is
exceeded.
▯
Make sure the water supply faucet is easily accessible
when the washer is in use. The faucet should be
turned off if the washer is going to be unused for
extended periods of time.
▯
Make sure rubber washers are in place at both ends of
the water supply hose. Missing washers could cause
leaks.
▯
The connection points are under full water pressure.
Turn on the water tap and check for leaks.
▯
Periodically inspect the water supply hose and replace
with a new hose if cuts, kinks or leaks are observed.
