3. Tighten couplings 5. Attach long hose to dryer fill valve and tighten coupling A Using pliers, tighten the couplings with additional two-thirds turn. NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can result. 4. Attach long hose to "Y" connector and tighten couplings Attach other end of long hose to fill valve at bottom of dryer back panel. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on fill valve connector. Using pliers, tighten the couplings an additional two-thirds turn. NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can result. 6. Turn on cold water faucet One end of the long hose has a wire mesh strainer inside the coupling. Attach this end to the "Y" connector. Attach washer cold inlet hose to other side of "Y" connector. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on connector. Using pliers, tighten the couplings an additional two-thirds turn. NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can result. Check that the water faucets are turned on. 7. Check for leaks Check for leaks around "Y" connector, faucet, and hoses. 16
