Water Inlet Hoses

Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.

When replacing your inlet hoses, record the date of replacement.

Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care

Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather, winterize it.

Non-use or vacation care:

Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time, you should:

Unplug washer or disconnect power.

Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.

Slightly open door to provide ventilation.

1.Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum.

2.Run washer on a Drain & Spin cycle.

5.Disconnect water inlet hoses from faucets and drain.
