5 INLET HOSES
Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps and the elbow ends to the

corresponding machine inlet valves. The hot valve is colour coded orange to make this easier.
Tighten the inlet hose ends by hand until the hose seal makes contact with the tap sealing face
and then tighten a further half-turn. Make sure there are no kinks in the hoses.
Turn the taps on and check for leaks. Check for leaks again after 24 hours.
