7. Clear water lines 9. Check for leaks Run water for a few seconds through hoses into a laundry tub, drainpipe, or bucket to avoid clogs. Water should run until clear. Make note of which hose is connected to hot water to help in attaching hoses to washer correctly. 8. Connect inlet hoses to washer Turn on water faucets to check for leaks. A small amount of water may enter washer. It will drain later. ■■ If you connect only one water hose, you must cap (supplied) off the remaining water inlet port. Secure Drain Hose 10.

Record hose installation or replacement dates for future reference. ■■ Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
