IMPORTANT: Make sure that the flat washers have been placed 
into the hose couplings.

1. Attach the hot water hose to the washer’s hot (H) water inlet 

valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the 
washer. 

2. Attach the cold water hose to the washer’s cold (C) water 

faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the 
washer.

3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional 

 

two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can result.

4. Turn on the water faucets completely and check for leaks.

NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the 
risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement 
dates on the hoses for future reference.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, 
wear, or leaks are found.

Proper routing of the drain hose protects your floor from damage 
due to water leakage. Read and follow these instructions.

Do not straighten the drain hose, and do not force excess 
drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure, but loose 
enough to provide a gap for air.

Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.

You may need additional parts. See Floor drain under “Tools and 
Parts.”

1. Drape the power cord over the washer top.

Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the
