WATER
To correctly fill your washer in the proper amount of time, water pressure of 14 to
70psi (100 to 500 kPa) is required. Water pressure less than 14psi may cause water
valve failure, or may not allow the water valve to shot off completely, or may extend
the fill time beyond what your washer controls allow, causing your washer to turn
off and alarm error. A time limit is built into the controls to prevent flooding in your
home if a hose becomes loose.
The water faucet must be within 4 feet / 122cm of the back of your washer to match
the inlet hoses provided with your washer.
To avoid the possibility of water damage:
- Operate with cold water only.
- Have water faucets easily accessible.
- Turn off faucets when the washer is not in use.
- Periodically check that there is no leakage from the water inlet hose fittings.
DRAIN FACILITY
The recommended height of the standpipe is 35in. or 90cm. The drain hose must be
routed through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large
enough to accept the outside diameter of the drain hose.
INSTALL YOUR WASHER
Before installing, make sure there are rubber gaskets inside the
fittings at both ends of the water supply hoses.
If there are no water inlet hoses packed with the washer or if the
hoses are damaged, Call the Customer Satisfaction Center at
1-844-299-0879. Installing the water supply hoses without rubber
gaskets can cause water leakage. When you initially install the
washer, be sure to use new hoses. Failing to do so may result in
a water leakage or overflow and may damage your property. If a hose
is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.
Step 1: Move your washer to selected position
Tilt the unit back onto its rear rollers and push it forward as shown in the figure
below. Move the unit to a location as described in the previous Choose the Proper
Location section.
Make sure the location has a hard, level
surface without carpeting. There should
be no direct sunlight. Do not expose the
unit to freezing temperatures
(under 32° F or 0° C).

Step 2: Install the Bottom Cover
Slide the bottom cover into the slots
on bottom surface of the unit as in the
following figure, and fix it with two
screws attached with the unit.
Step 3: Connect the water hose
TEMPORARY CONNECTION
• The Quick Connection Adaptor is primarily for quick connection to a single faucet,
such as a typical kitchen sink, in cases where the washer is stored in a different
place than where it is used. (Skip this step if you are connecting the washer to a
sink with separate hot and cold faucets. See PERMANENT INSTALLATION section
below.) The adaptor consists of two parts that quickly connect or disconnect. One
part, the faucet fitting, is for connection to the faucet and the other part, the hose
fitting, connects to the COLD water hose of the washer.
- Pull back on the white ring to free the faucet fitting from the adaptor for
installation into the faucet.
- Screw the end of the COLD water hose onto the base of the hose fitting.
- If the faucet has internal screw threads, unscrew the aerator if present from the tip
of the faucet. Then screw the faucet fitting into the faucet. Make sure that the black
rubber gasket is on the top of the adaptor before screwing it in.
- If the faucet has external screw threads, remove the gasket from the top of the
faucet fitting, and screw the fitting over the external threads.
- Pull back on the white ring to connect the two parts of the adaptor back together.
Pull down on the white ring
to divide the adaptor into
two parts.

NOTE: When connected to a single faucet that can dispense either hot or cold
water, both hot and cold water can be run through the cold water line.
It is recommended to ONLY run COLD water washes when the adapter is
connected to such a faucet.
