Connecting the water supply hose

The water supply hose must be connected to the washing machine at one end and to the water faucet at

the other. Do not stretch the water supply hose. If the hose is too short and you do not wish to move the

water faucet, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.

To connect the water supply hose: 

1.

Connect the cold water supply hose(Blue) fitting with the L-shaped arm to the cold water supply

intake(Blue) on the back of the washing machine and hand tighten.

2.

Connect the other end of the cold water supply hose to your sink’s cold water faucet and tighten it

by hand. If necessary, you can reposition the water supply hose at the washing machine end by

loosening the fitting, rotating the hose, and retightening the fitting. 

Option :  1.  Connect the hot water supply hose(Red) fitting with the L-shaped arm to the hot water supply

intake(Red) on the back of the washing machine and hand tighten.

2. Connect the other end of the hot water supply hose to your sink’s 

hot water faucet and tighten it by hand.

3. If you want to use only cold water, use Y-piece.

Positioning the drain hose

The end of the drain hose may be positioned in three ways:

Over the edge of a sink

The drain hose must be placed at a height of between 60 and 90 cm. To keep the drain hose spout bent,

use the supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the guide to the wall with a hook or to the faucet with a piece

of string to prevent the drain hose from moving. 

In a sink drain pipe branch

The drain pipe branch must be above the sink siphon so that the end of the hose is at least 60
cm above the ground.
