1. Attach the hot water hose to the washer’s hot (H) water inlet
valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the
washer.
2. Attach the cold water hose to the washer’s cold (C) 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. Damage to the coupling can result.
4. Turn on the water faucets completely and check for leaks.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 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.

vibration.
NOTE: Installing washer on soft floor surfaces, such as carpets or
surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended.
