Caution
Do not overtighten the fittings or apply tape or sealant to the faucets or
water supply intake. This can damage the fittings.
3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and turn on the
faucets connected to the water supply hoses for 10 or 15 seconds to
remove any foreign substances. Turn off the faucets.
4. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply intake
connections at the top of the washer. Make sure that the rubber washers
are in place. The water supply hose connected to the hot faucet must be
connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose connected
to the cold faucet must be connected to the cold water supply intake.
NOTE: If you do not want to use the hot water supply hose, insert a
water intake cap into the hot water supply intake hole. In this case you
must select the Tap Cold option for the water temperature.
NOTE: No intake cap is provided with your washer. It must be purchased
separately.
