WATER

Water pressure of 20 to 120 p.s.i. is required to correctly fill the washer in the proper time. Pressures of less

than 20 p.s.i. may cause a failure in the water valve, detergent dispenser, fabric softener dispenser or bleach

dispenser. Low pressure may also cause the fill times to be extended past the time the washer is allowed to

fill. The water valve may not shut off completely when the pressure is insufficient.

Hot and Cold water faucet's must be within 4 feet of the back of the washer for inlet hoses provided with the

washer. NOTE: Accessory inlet hoses are available in various lengths up to 10 feet for faucet's more than 4

feet from the back of the washer. See accessory parts section.

ACCESSIBLE AND TURN OFF FAUCET'S WHEN WASHER IS NOT IN USE.
