STEP 3
Installing your Washer
1. If you use a stand pipe, make sure the connection
between the drain hose and the standpipe is NOT
airtight. The standpipe must be at least 18 in or 46
cm high.
You must always exercise caution to avoid
collapsing or damaging the drain hose. For best
results, the drain hose should not be restricted
in any way – by elbows, couplings, or excessive
length. For situations where the drain hose cannot
be conveniently elevated to at least 18 in or 46 cm,
the drain hose must be supported.
Do not insert the drain hose too far into the stand
pipe: 6 - 8 inches, and no more.
2. Check the inlet hose to ensure a washer is inside each fi ll hose.
Thread the inlet hoses to the HOT and COLD faucet connections.
On the other end of the hose, check for one rubber washer per hose
and attach each fi ll hose to the water valve. Make sure the hose with
Hot printed on it is attached to the HOT faucet. Tighten by hand until
snug, then two-thirds of a turn with pliers.
For correct water use, connect both HOT and COLD water valves. If
either or both are not connected, an "nF" (no fi ll) error can occur.
