INSTALLING YOUR WASHER
Step 1
Selecting a location
Before you install your washer, make sure the location:
•
Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or fl ooring that may obstruct ventilation and avoid
vibrations
•
Allows at least 4 in (10 cm) between the washer and the wall
•
Is away from direct sunlight and not exposed to rain as moisture may destroy the electrical
insulation causing an electrical shock hazard
•
Has adequate ventilation
•
Is not exposed to temperatures below freezing (below 32 ˚F and 0 ˚C)
•
Is away from heat sources such as oil and gas
•
Has enough space so that your washer doesn’t stand on its power cable
Step 2
Connecting the water supply hose to the washer
Connect the other end of the water supply hose to the
inlet water valve at the back of the washer. Screw the hose
clockwise all the way in.
1.
Remove the adaptor from the water supply hose.
2.
First, using a “+” type screw driver, loosen the four screws
on the adaptor. Next, take the adaptor and turn part(b)
following the arrow for gap about 5 mm between them.
