Check for leaks
Attach hot water hose to hot water inlet valve. Screw coupling
by hand until it is snug. Use pliers to tighten couplings an
additional two-thirds turn. Repeat with cold water inlet valve.
Both hoses must be connected for washer to work properly.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on
valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage can result.
NOTE: To reduce risk of hose failure, replace the hoses every
5 years. Record hose installation or replacement dates for
future reference.
■ Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks,
cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
Turn on water faucets to check for leaks from faucet and at
washer connection. A small amount of water may enter washer.
You will drain this in a later step.

LEVEL WASHER
IMPORTANT: Leveling your washer properly reduces excess
noise and vibration.
1.
Move washer to final location
Move the washer to its final location. Rock the washer back
and forth to check whether all four feet are stable and in firm
contact with the floor. If the washer rocks, minor adjustments
may be needed to level the washer on your floor.
Check the levelness of the washer. First, place a level
on the lid near the console. Then place the level on the side
of the washer in the crease between the top of the washer
and the cabinet.
