Connecting the Water Inlet
Hoses
Before connecting the water inlet hose to the water
tap, check the hose fitting type and then choose
the correct instruction.
Note for Connection
• Water supply pressure must be between 50 kPa
and 800 kPa (0.5 - 8.0 kgf / cm²). If the water
supply pressure is more than 800 kPa, a
decompression device should be installed.
• Do not overtighten the water inlet hose to the
valve.
• Periodically check the condition of the hose and
replace the hose if necessary.
• The water supply hose supplied may vary from
country to country. Make sure to connect the
blue supply hose to the COLD water tap, and the
orange supply hose to the HOT water tap.
Checking the Rubber Seal
Two rubber seals are supplied with the water
a
inlet hoses. They are used to prevent water leaks.
Connection to taps is sufficiently tight.
• Do not use mechanical devices such as multi
grips to tighten the inlet hoses. Ensure that the
curved end of the water inlet hose is connected
to the appliance.
INSTALLATION
Connecting the Hose to the
Water Tap
Connecting Screw-Type Hose to Tap with Thread
Screw the hose connector onto the water supply
tap. Hand tighten only with the aid of a soft cloth.
NOTE
• After connecting the water inlet hose to the
water tap, turn on the water tap to flush out
foreign substances (dirt, sand, sawdust, and etc.)
in the water lines. Let the water drain into a
bucket, and check the water temperature.
Connecting the Hose to the
Appliance
Screw the water inlet hose to the water inlet valve
on the back of the appliance.
• Do not connect the hose to the hot water supply
for models with one water inlet. Connect to the
cold water supply only.
NOTE
• After completing connection, if water leaks from
the hose, repeat the same steps. Use the most
conventional type of tap for the water supply. In
case that the tap is square or too big, remove the
guide plate before inserting the tap into the
adaptor.
