Step 3: Connect Fill Hoses
Water Supply
Water supply faucets must fit standard 19.1 mm (3/4
inch) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT USE
SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CONNECTIONS.
Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to
permit turning them off when washer is not being
used.
Recommended cold water temperature is 10
o
to 24
o
Celsius (50
o
to 75
o
Fahrenheit). Recommended hot
water temperature is 60
o
to 66
o
Celsius (140
o
to 150
o
Fahrenheit). Warm water is a mixture of hot and cold
water. Warm water temperature is dependent upon
water temperature and pressure of both the hot and
cold water supply lines.
Water pressure must be a minimum of 138 to a
maximum of 827 kPa (20 to 120 pounds per square
inch) static pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 138 kPa (20 pounds
per square inch) will cause an extended fill time in
the washer.
Turn on the water faucets and flush the lines for
approximately two minutes to remove any foreign
material that could clog the screens in the water
mixing valve.
NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or
renovated buildings, it is very important to flush
the lines since build-up may have occurred during
construction.
Connecting Hoses
Remove the two plain rubber washers and two filter
screens from the accessories bag. Install them into
each end of the fill hoses as shown in
. The
screen must be facing outward.
Screw hose couplings with the filter screens onto the
water faucets until they are finger-tight. Then, using a
pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Use the red
color-coded hose for the hot water connection and the
blue color-coded hose for the cold water connection.
Screw hose couplings from other end of hoses onto the
water mixing valve until they are finger-tight. Then,
using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Refer to
. Make sure the red color-coded hose from the
hot water faucet goes to the water mixing valve
marked “H” and the blue color-coded hose from the
cold faucet goes to the valve marked “C”.
IMPORTANT: Do not cross thread or overtighten
couplings. This will cause them to leak.
Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found,
turn off the water, unscrew hoses and reinstall them
until there are no leaks.
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever
there will be an extended period of non-use.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water system
that has not been used for two weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If
the hot water system has not been used
for such a period and before using the
washer, turn on all hot water faucets and
let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is
flammable. Do not smoke or use an open
flame during this time.
