11 Use the faucet adapter n kit that came with your washer to modify the faucet where washer will be used. (If you have a Whirlpool portable dishwasher, you
do not need to modify your faucet. The same adapter can be used.)
Remove screen holder or aerator from end of faucet. For faucets with external threads, stew adapter directly onto faucet end.
If faucet has internal threads, first install washer and threaded bushing, then adapter screws onto the bushing. For other faucet types, see your Whirlpool dealer for a special adapter kit.
Note: If washer will be used at a faucet equipped with a spray hose attachment, constant pressure may cause the spray hose to leak.To prevent potential problems, permanently disconnect the spray hose or replace with a high pressure hose.
