Installation instructions 39 Water connection (for selected models with Steam cycles) Supply requirements The hot and cold faucets MUST be installed no further than 42" (1070 mm) from the washer's inlet supply. Faucets need to be ¾" (19 mm) so the inlet hoses can be connected correctly. Inlet water pressure required: Min. 10 psi (70 kPa) to Max. 120 psi (827 kPa). Consult your Water Department for information about the pressure supplied to your home. Note: if your domestic water supply is hard, we recommend using a water softener to help reduce the build up of lime scale within the steam generator. Over time, a build up of lime scale may block up the water system, causing reduced performance and the possible need for part repair or replacement. Water supply connection For the Steam cycles to work correctly, the dryer must be connected to the cold water supply. A "Y" connector can be used so that the washer (which also requires a cold water supply) and dryer can be connected to the cold supply at the same faucet. Important!

Water connection (for selected models with Steam cycles)
Supply requirements
The hot and cold faucets MUST be installed no further than 42” (1070 mm) from the washer’s
inlet supply. Faucets need to be ¾” (19 mm) so the inlet hoses can be connected correctly.
Inlet water pressure required: Min. 10 psi (70 kPa) to Max. 120 psi (827 kPa). Consult your Water
Department for information about the pressure supplied to your home.
Note: if your domestic water supply is hard, we recommend using a water softener to help
reduce the build up of lime scale within the steam generator. Over time, a build up of lime scale
may block up the water system, causing reduced performance and the possible need for part
repair or replacement.
Water supply connection
For the Steam cycles to work correctly, the dryer must be connected to the cold water supply. A
“Y” connector can be used so that the washer (which also requires a cold water supply) and dryer
can be connected to the cold supply at the same faucet.
Important!
Use the new inlet hoses provided with your dryer. Never reuse old hoses or rubber washers.
Inlet hose replacement
We recommend the inlet hoses are changed every 5 years. Hoses should also be checked from
time to time and replaced if any wear, cuts, bulges, kinks or leaks are found. WARNING!: Failure to
do so may result in a flood and damage to property.
