put the hooked end of the drain hose in the standpipe as
shown. See illustration C.

To keep drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of drain hose. Do not force
excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure,
but loose enough to provide a gap of air.
NOTE: To avoid siphoning, do not seal the drain hose to the
standpipe.
• Do not lay excess drain hose in bottom of laundry tub.
• Do not force excess drain hose back into the rear of the
washer.
• For floor drain installation, see kit number required under
"Tools and Parts."

There are two hoses provided with the machine. The hot water
hose is indicated with a red stripe running the length of the hose.
Insert new filter washers (supplied) into the straight hose fitting of
each inlet hose. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings. 3.

A. Coupling
B. Filter washer
Connect the inlet hoses to the water faucets
Make sure the washer basket is empty.
1. Attach the hose with the red stripe to the hot water faucet.
Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
2. Attach the other hose to the cold water faucet. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on the filter washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Clear the water lines
Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a bucket or
laundry tub, to get rid of particles in the water lines that might
clog the inlet filter washers. The water should be clean, especially
where the system is new or has been left unused for a length of
time.
Connect the inlet hoses to the washer
1. Insert the flat washer (supplied) into the coupling of the hose
fitting elbow, before connecting the water inlet hose to the
valve on the back of the washer.
A. Cold water inlet valve
B. Hot water inlet valve
C. Fiat washer
Attach the hose with the red stripe to the HOT (right) inlet valve
on the washer. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on
the flat washer. Make sure the hose connection is tight.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Attach the other hose to the COLD water (left) inlet valve. Screw
on coupling by hand until it is seated on the flat washer. Make
sure the hose connection is tight.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Check for leaks
Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks. A small amount of
water might enter the washer. You will drain this later.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates for
future reference.
• Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.
