3 Turn on the water faucet to remove foreign
substance such as dirt, sand, or sawdust
in the water line, and then check the water
temperature.
4 Connect the hoses to the water inlets.
- Connect the blue hose to the cold water
inlet and the red hose to the hot water inlet.
Connect the water hoses to the faucets.
- Connect the blue hose to a cold water
faucet and the red hose to a hot water
faucet.
- If there is only one faucet, connect it to
the cold water faucet. In this case, the
water supply may be delayed for the
first 3 minutes of the supply in order to
differentiate hot from cold water.

• Check for leaks by turning on the faucets.
- If water leaks, check steps 1 to 3 again.
NOTE
• For your safety, and for extended product life,
use only authorized components.
The manufacturer is not responsible for product
malfunction or accidents caused by the use of
separately purchased unauthorized parts.
• Use new hoses when you install the washing
machine. Do not reuse old hoses.
• Periodically check the hoses for cracks, leaks
and wear, and replace the hoses every 5 years.
• Do not stretch the water hoses intentionally, and
make sure that they are not crushed by other
objects.
• Water line pressure must be between 14.5 PSI
and 116 PSI (100 - 800 kPa). If the water line
pressure is higher than 116 PSI, a pressure
reducing valve must be installed.
• To provide optimum washing performance the
hot water temperature should be set at 120-
135°F (48-57°C) and the cold at 60°F(15 °C)
