Clear water lines
Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, intoa
laundry tub, drainpipe or bucket, to get rid of particles inthe
water lines that might clogthe inlet valve screens.
Check the temperature of thewater to make sure that the hot
water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose isconnected to the cold water faucet.

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.
