1.Attach the hot water hose to the bottom inlet valve. Attaching the hot water hose first makes it easier to tighten connection with pliers.

2.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 or use tape or sealants on the valve. Damage to the valves can result.

1.Move the laundry center to its final location and remove any cardboard used to move the laundry center.

If you are working in a closet or recessed area

Move the laundry center into its final position and remove cardboard from under laundry center. Remove the access panel by removing 3 Phillips-head screws and one bumper, located at the top of the access panel. Set panel, screws and bumper aside. Complete hookup of water hoses and (on gas models) the flexible gas connector through the access area. Replace access panel upon completion of laundry center installation.

Check for leaks

7.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.

•If you connect only one water hose, you must cap off the remaining water inlet port.

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

•The apparatus must be connected to the water faucets using the new hoses. Do not use old hoses.

If the water faucets and the drain standpipe are recessed, put the hooked end of the drain hose in the standpipe. Tightly wrap the plastic strap around the water inlet hoses and the drain hose (C above).
