CONNECTING THE WATER LINES
NOTE:
• For your safety, and for extended product life,
use high-quality LG components. LG is not
responsible for product malfunction or damage
caused by the use of separately purchased non-
LG parts.
• Do not reuse old hoses. Use only new hoses
when installing the washing machine. Old hoses
could leak or burst causing flooding and property
damage. Contact LG Customer Service for
assistance in buying hoses: 1-800-243-0000.
• Do not use flood-preventing hoses with auto
shutoff devices. The devices can be tripped
during fill and prevent the machine from filling
properly.
1. Check the fittings and seals.
Inspect the threaded fitting on each hose and
make sure there is a rubber seal in place in both
ends of each hose to prevent leaking.

2. Connect the water supply hoses.
Connect the water supply hoses to the HOT and
COLD water faucets tightly by hand and then
tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Connect the
blue hose to a cold water faucet and the red hose
to a hot water faucet.
WARNING
y Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling
can result.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3. Flush out the inlet hoses.
After connecting the inlet hoses
to the water faucets, turn on the
water faucets to flush out foreign
substances (dirt, sand or sawdust)
in the water lines. Let water drain
into a bucket, and check the water
temperature to make sure you've
connected the hoses to the correct
faucets.
4. Attach the water lines to the back of the
washer.
Attach the hot water line to the provided inlet
Y-connector and attach the short water line
from the Y-connector to the full-size washer
inlet. Then attach the long water line from
the Y-connector to the pedestal washer inlet.
Repeat with
the cold water
connections.
Tighten the
fittings securely.
Turn on both
faucets all the
way and check for
leaks at both ends
of the hoses.
WARNING
y Do not overtighten the hoses or crossthread
the hose fittings. Overtightening or cross-
threading can damage the valves, resulting in
leaking and property damage.
NOTE:
• Periodically check the hoses for cracks, leaks,
and wear, and replace the hoses every five years.
Do not stretch the water hoses intentionally, and
make sure that they are not pinched, crushed or
kinked by other objects.
• Water supply pressure must be between 20
psi and 120 psi (138–827 kPa). If the water
supply pressure is more than 120 psi, a pressure
reducing valve must be installed.
• To provide optimum washing performance, set
the hot water temperature at 120°–135°F (48°–
57°C) and the cold at 60°F (15°C).
• Never install or store the washer in a location
subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to
the water lines and internal mechanisms of the
washer can result. If the washer was exposed to
freezing temperatures prior to installation, allow
it to stand at room temperature for several hours
before use and check for leaks prior to operation.
