Connect inlet hoses to washer
Attach the hot water hose to the bottom inlet valve. Attaching
the hot water hose first makes it easier to tighten connection
with pliers. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the
washer. Using pliers, tighten the coupling with an additional
two-thirds turn.
Attach the cold water hose to the top inlet valve. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer. Using pliers,
tighten the coupling with an additional two-thirds turn.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants
when attaching inlet hoses to faucets or to the Laundry Center.
Damage can result.

Move laundry center to final location
If you are working in a closet or recessed area, move the
Laundry Center into its final location and remove cardboard
from under the Laundry Center. Remove the access panel by
removing 2 Phillips-head screws located at the top of the
access panel. Set panel and screws aside. Complete hookup
of water hoses through the access area. Replace access panel
upon completion of Laundry Center installation.

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 Laundry Center must be connected to the water faucets
using the new hoses. Do not use old hoses.
SECURE DRAIN HOSE
Move Laundry Center to its final location and remove any
cardboard used to move Laundry Center.
