STEP 3. Put hooked end of drain hose
into laundry tub or standpipe, Check
for proper length of drain hose. Rotate
hook to eliminate kinks.
To prevent drain water from going back
into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of drain
hose and force excess drain hose into
standpipe.
• Do not lay excess drain hose in bottom
of laundry tub.
D. CONNECT INLET HOSES
TO WASHER
Proper connection of your inlet hoses
will allow hot and cold water to enter
your washer properly. It also helps
prevent water damage due to leaks.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after five
years of use to reduce the risk of hose
failure. Periodically inspect and replace
inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear,
or leaks are found. When replacing
your inlet hoses, mark the date of
replacement on the label with a
permanent marker.
STEP 1. Insert one new, flat washer
(from the parts bag) into each end of
the inlet hoses. Check that washers
are firmly seated in couplings.
