How to Connect the Water Inlet Hoses

• Check the fittings and seals. Inspect the threaded fitting on each hose and make sure there is a rubber seal a in place in both ends of each hose to prevent leaking.

  

• Check the type of installation and connect the hose to the faucet. Connect all water supply hoses tightly by hand and then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers.

  • Type 1 : WITHOUT WASHER (The dryer does not share the faucet with the washing machine.)

    1. Connect the straight end of the long hose b to the cold water faucet.

       

  • Type 2 : WITH WASHER (The dryer shares the faucet with the washing machine.)

    1. Shut off the cold water tap and remove the washer inlet hose.

    2. Connect the short hose c to the Y-connector d using one of the rubber seals.

    3. Connect the other end of the short hose c to the cold water faucet.

    4. Connect the long dryer hose b to one side of the Y-connector d. Connect the washer hose to the washer and the other side of the Y-connector d.

    

  Note

  • Before connecting the water line to the dryer, flush several gallons of water into a drain or bucket. This will help prevent foreign particles such as sand and scale from clogging the dryer inlet valve.

• Connect the long dryer hose b to the dryer inlet valve tightly by hand and then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers.

  

• Turn on the cold water faucet.

  

• Check all hoses and Y-connectors (if used) for leaks.

  

  Note

  • If any leaks are found, shut off the water faucet, remove the hose and check the condition of the rubber seal.

  • In areas with hard water, mineral scale can form on internal components of the dryer. Use of a water softener is recommended in areas with hard water. Excessive scale buildup may lead to the need for replacement or repair of certain parts.
