INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTING THE WATER LINES
•
IMPORTANT:
Use new hoses when installing the washer.
Do NOT reuse old hoses.
•
IMPORTANT:
Use ONLY the inlet hoses provided with this laundry
product. Aftermarket hoses are not guaranteed to fit or function cor-
rectly. Other hoses may not tighten
correctly and could cause leaks. Subsequent damage to product or
property will not be covered under the terms of the product warranty.
• Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 psi and 116 psi
(100~800 kPa). If the water supply pressure is more than 116 psi, a
pressure regulator must be installed.
• Periodically check the hose for cracks, leaks, and wear, and replace
the hose every 5 years.
• Make sure that the water lines are not stretched, pinched, crushed, or
kinked.
• The washer should never be installed or stored in a
location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to the water lines
and internal mechanisms of the washer can result. If the washer was
exposed to freezing
temperatures prior to installation, allow it to stand at room temperature
for several hours before use and check for leaks prior to operation.
1.
Inspect the threaded fitting on each hose and make sure
there is a rubber seal in place in both ends.
4.
Attach the red, hot water line to the hot water inlet on
the back of the washer. Attach the blue, cold water line
to the cold water inlet on the back of the washer. Tighten
the fittings securely.
NOTE:
Be careful not to cross-thread the hose fittings
since this will damage the valve and could result in
property damage from leaks.
NOTE:
Do not cross-thread the hose fittings. Attach the
hot water line to the red hot water inlet on the back of the
washer. Attach the cold water line to the blue cold water
inlet on the back of the washer. Tighten the fittings
securely.
NOTE:
Tighten the fittings securely. Open the water taps
fully to check for leaks.
2.
Connect the water supply hoses to the HOT and COLD water
faucets tightly by hand and then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers.
Turn ON the water faucets and check for leaks.
NOTE:
A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water
to the washer.
NOTE:
To avoid build up that can clog the inlet valve screen, thor-
oughly flush both faucet and hose to remove any particles or other
impurities by running water through them into a container.

Always flush a gallon or two of water through each fill
hose to help prevent future problems with clogged filter
screens. This will also help identify which hose is hot
and cold.
