Using this hose is simple. First, turn off your washing machine and unplug it for safety. Locate the detergent dispenser and the outer tub. Remove the old hose carefully and then attach the new one from the bottom of the detergent dispenser to the outer tub. Make sure it's properly connected. When using your washing machine, avoid over - filling the detergent dispenser as this can put extra stress on the hose. For maintenance, check the hose regularly for any signs of wear or splitting. If you notice any damage, replace the hose promptly. This will ensure your washing machine continues to work efficiently and your clothes get a great clean.
