STEP 2
Connecting the water and the drain
Connecting the water supply hose
The water supply hoses are not supplied with your washer
and must be purchased separately. Before installing the water
CAUTION
supply hoses, make sure there are rubber gaskets inside the
fittings at both ends of each new water hose. Installing the
water supply hoses without rubber gaskets can cause water
leakage.
When you initially install the washer, be sure to use new hoses.
Failing to do so may result in a water leakage or overflow and
CAUTION
may damage your property.
Do not connect multiple water supply hoses together to
increase the length of the supply hose. Hoses connected this
CAUTION
way can leak and the leakage can cause electrical shock. If a
hose is too short, replace the hose with a longer, high pressure hose.
1. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the HOT and COLD faucets.
2. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them an
additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
CAUTION
3. Place the unconnected ends of the hoses into a bucket and open
the faucets connected to the two water supply hoses for 10 or 15
seconds to remove any foreign substances from the hoses. Close the
faucets before continuing.
4. Connect the ends of the water supply hoses to the water supply
intake connections at the back of the washer.
CAUTION
5. Tighten the fittings by hand until they are snug, and then tighten them
an additional two-thirds of a turn with a wrench.
CAUTION
6. Turn on the HOT and COLD water supplies and check all the water
supply intake connections and the faucets for water leaks.

When you fasten the fittings, do not fasten them too tightly or apply
tape or sealant to the faucets or water supply intakes. This can
damage the fittings.
After you have connected the water supply hoses to the faucets,
ensure that they are connected correctly by pulling the water supply hoses
downwards
The water supply hose connected to the HOT faucet must be
connected to the hot water supply intake and the water hose
connected to the COLD faucet must be connected to the COLD
water supply intake.
To ensure the correct water usage, connect both the HOT and
COLD water faucets. If either or both are not connected, an
"nF" (no fill) error can occur.
If you do not want to use the HOT water supply hose, insert
the water intake cap into the HOT water supply intake hole. In
this case, you must select the Tap Cold option for the water
temperature.If you select the Tap Cold option, all the lamps for
the water temperature options are turned off.
Confirm that the water supply hoses are not twisted or bent. If
the hoses are twisted or bent, the hoses can leak and cause
electric shock due to the water leakage.
