For laundry tub or standpipe drain systems
1. Make sure drain hose form is in correct position.
....................................
A.Drain hoseform
2. Put the hooked end of drain hose into laundry tub or
standpipe. Rotate hook to eliminate kinks.
To keep drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not force excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should
be secure but loose enough to provide a gap for air.
• Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.
For use with floor drain
Do not install the drain hose form on to the corrugated drain
hose. You may need additional parts. See Floor drain under
"Tools and Parts."
1. Insert a new flat washer into each end of the inlet hoses.
Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.

Connect inlet hoses to water faucets
Make sure the washer basket is empty.
1. Attach hose to the hot water faucet. Screw on coupling
by hand until it is seated on the washer.
2. Attach hose to the cold water faucet. Screw on coupling
by hand until it is seated on the washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.

NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the valve.
Damage to the valves can result.
Clear water lines
• Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a
laundry tub, drainpipe, or bucket to get rid of particles in the
water lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.
• Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot
water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
Connect inlet hoses to washer
1. Attach the hot water hose to the bottom inlet valve. Attaching
the hot water hose first makes it easier to tighten connection
with pliers.
2. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-
thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the valve.
Damage to the valves can result.

4. Attach the cold water hose to the top inlet valve.
5. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
6. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the valve.
Damage to the valves can result.
If you are working in a closet or recessed area
Move the Laundry Center into its final location and remove
cardboard from under Laundry Center. Remove the access panel
by removing 3 Phillips-head screws and one bumper, located at
the top of the access panel. Set panel, screws, and bumper
aside. Complete hookup of water hoses and (on gas models) the
flexible gas connector through the access area. Replace access
panel upon completion of Laundry Center installation.
Check for leaks
• 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 apparatus must be connected to the water faucets using
the new hoses. Do not use old hoses.
