Water Supply Requirements
Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch [19 mm] female
garden hose couplings. DO NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-
ON CONNECTIONS.
NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily accessi-
ble to permit turning them off when washer is not being
used.
Recommended cold water temperature is 50° to 75° Fahrenheit
[10° to 24° Celsius] . Recommended maximum hot water temper-
ature is 125° Fahrenheit [51° Celsius] . For models that have the
Sanitize with Oxi and the Pet Plus Flea cycles, the hot water sup-
ply connection must provide a minimum of 120° Fahrenheit [49°
Celsius] . An adjustment to the water heater may be necessary.
Warm water is a mixture of hot and cold water. Warm water tem-
perature is dependent upon the water temperature and the pres-
sure of both the hot and cold water supply lines.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, avoid contact with inlet
water temperatures higher than 125° Fahrenheit [51°
Celsius] and hot surfaces.
W748
Maximum flow rate for all water temperatures is 2.5 gallons per
minute [9.46 liters per minute] ± 15%.
Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 120
pounds per square inch [minimum of 138 to a maximum of 827
kPa] static pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per square
inch [138 kPa] will cause an extended fill time in the
washer and may not properly flush out the detergent
dispenser.
Turn on the water supply faucets and flush the lines for approxi-
mately two minutes to remove any foreign materials that could
clog the screens in the water mixing valve. This is especially im-
portant when installing your washer in a newly constructed or
renovated building. Build-up may have occurred during construc-
tion.
Connect Hoses
NOTE: Y-connector, extension hose(s) and rubber
washer for Y-Connector are not included with the dryer.
1. Turn off water at shut-off valve.
2. Remove the plain rubber washers and filter screens from the
accessories bag.
3. Insert a rubber washer into Y-connector (both sold separate-
ly).
4. Install Y-connector onto cold-water supply faucet (use exten-
sion hose if Y-connector cannot be installed directly on water
supply). Refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 .
5. Insert filter screens on the faucet end of both the dryer and
washer inlet hoses with the screen facing outward towards the
faucet and rubber washers on the valve end of each hose.
6. Connect filter screen end of the dryer inlet hose to the Y-Con-
nector.
7. Connect rubber washer end of dryer inlet hose to the fill valve
on rear of dryer, thread hose coupling finger tight. Then turn
1/4 turn with pliers.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT cross thread or overtighten
couplings. This will cause them to leak.
8. Connect filter screen end of the washer inlet hose to the other
end of Y-connector, thread hose coupling finger tight. Then
turn 1/4 turn with pliers.
9. Connect rubber washer end of washer inlet hose to the water
mixing valve marked "C" until finger tight. Then turn 1/4
turn.
10. Install a rubber washer and a filter screen into each end of the
hot water connection hose. Filter screen must face outward.
11. Connect filter screen end of hose onto the hot water supply
faucet until finger tight. Then turn 1/4 turn with pliers.
12. Connect rubber washer end of hose onto the water mixing
valve marked "H" until finger tight. Then turn 1/4 turn with
pliers.
13. Check that Y-connector valves are open (if applicable).
14. Turn water on and check for leaks. Wait 30 minutes and check
again, some leaks are slow to show up.
15. If leaks are found, turn off water, unscrew hoses and reinstall
until there are no leaks.
NOTE: If leaks persist after checking and retighten-
ing hose coupling, check for crossing threading,
and damaged hose(s) or rubber washer(s).
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever there
will be an extended period of non-use.
