the appliance water inlet hose connections. The faucets
must be 3/4" garden hose-type so inlet hoses can be con-
nected.
• WATER PRESSURE – Must be between 10 and 120 pounds
per square inch with a maximum unbalance pressure, hot
vs. cold flowing, of 10 pounds per square inch.
• WATER TEMPERATURE – Water heater should be set to
deliver 120° F (50° C) in the washer when HOT wash is se-
lected.
• SHUT-OFF VALVES – Both hot and cold water shut-off
valves (faucets) should be supplied.
