PLUMBING (Water Inlet)
The straight end of these hoses should be connected to the supply (Fig. 4).
The 90° angled end of these h
oses should be connected to the inlet valves
on the back of the machine, using one of the washers to make a water
tight seal on
each connection. The couplings should be tightened by hand,
a tool should only be used if a leak occurs. Do not use excessive fo
rce
(see M, Fig. 5).
The Inlet valves are color
-
coded:
Red = Hot
White = Cold
It is possible to run the machine on cold water
only, but a water supply
must be connected to each inlet valve. To do this we suggest you use "F"
connector, supplied with the
washer
-
dryer (see N, Fig. 6).
PLUMBING (Water Outlet)
You should carefully position the drain hose to avoid kinks and ensure
proper drainage of the water.
The outlet end of the drain hose must be at least 20" (50 cm) above the
base of the machine. At t
his point it is possible for the water to be
discharged into a sink, standpipe or drainpipe.
No more than 6" of the drain
hose should insert into a standpipe. Assure
an air break is available to prevent the machine from siphoning in a
stan
d
pipe.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the drain hose is not kinked and the water flow is not
restricted.
Standpipe Drain System:
When a standpipe installation is used it
must be at least 1
¼
" (3.2 cm) in diameter
with a minimum carr
y away capacity of 7
gallons (26 liters) per minute.
Wall or Floor Standpipe Drain:
Top of standpipe must be at least 25" (62
cm) high and no higher than 34" (86 cm)
from bottom of washer (A & B).
