Using this Whirlpool inlet hose is easy. First, make sure your washing machine or dishwasher is turned off and unplugged. Then, connect the 3/4' BSP straight nut & tail end of the hose to the water source, like a tap. Next, attach the 3/4' BSP right - angled nut & tail end to the back of your appliance. Tighten the connections firmly but don't over - tighten to avoid damaging the nuts. When using, keep an eye on the hose for any signs of wear or leakage. If you notice any issues, stop using the appliance immediately. For maintenance, every few months, check the built - in water block to ensure it's working properly. Also, clean the tap washer and stainless - steel filter washer to prevent blockages. If you need to replace the hose, just follow the installation steps in reverse. And remember, this hose is not suitable for commercial machines like Maytag, Kleenmaid, or Speed Queen.
