01 SETTING UP
STEP 3
Installing your washer
1.
Place the drain hose in the drain facility.
Be sure an airtight connection is NOT
made between the drain hose and the
standpipe.
The standpipe must be at least 18in.(46
cm) high.
Caution must always be exercised to
avoid collapsing or damaging the drain
hose. For best results, the drain hose
should not be restricted in any way – by
elbows, couplings, or excessive lengths.
For situations where the drain hose
cannot be conveniently elevated to at
least 18in.(46 cm), the drain hose must
be supported.
2. Before connect the inlet hoses to water faucets, check to
ensure a washer is inside coupling.
3. Check the inlet hose to ensure a washer is inside each fill hose.
Thread the inlet hoses to the HOT and COLD faucet
connections.
On the other end of the hose, check for one rubber washer per
hose and install each fill hose to the water valve. Make sure the
hose with the Hot printed line is attached to the HOT faucet.
Tighten by hand until snug, then two-thirds of a turn with pliers.
For correct water use, connect both HOT and COLD water
valves. If either or both are not connected, an “nF” (no fill) error
can occur.
