Connect the Inlet Hoses

IMPORTANT: Verify that there are rubber washers installed in
both ends of both of the inlet hoses. If one or more of the
washers is missing, call the toll-free number on the cover or in the
"Assistance of Service" section.
A. Coupling
Connect the inlet hoses to the water faucets
Make sure the washer drum is empty.
1. Attach the red inlet hose to the hot water faucet. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
2. Attach the blue inlet hose to the cold water faucet. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the valve.
Damage to the valves can result.
Clear the water lines
Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a
laundry tub, drainpipe or bucket, to get rid of particles in the
water lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.
Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot
water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.

4. Turn on the water faucets completely and check for leaks.
NOTE: Replace original inlet hoses after 10 years of use to
reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or
replacement dates on the hoses for future reference.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.

Secure the Drain Hose

1. Drape the power cord over the washer top.
2. Secure the drain hose to the laundry tub leg or standpipe with
the cable tie provided. See illustrations A and B.

If the washer faucets and the drain standpipe are recessed
(see illustration C), put the hooked end of the drain hose in
the standpipe. Tightly wrap the cable tie around the water
inlet hoses and the drain hose.
NOTES:
Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the
washer.
Do not force excess drain hose into the standpipe.
To avoid siphoning, do not seal the drain hose into the
standpipe.
