Check for leaks
Turn on the water taps 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.
1. Remove the shipping material from the power cord. Drape
the power cord over the console.
