making the hose connection to check
if there is any water leakage at the
connection points. Turn off the tap
and remove the nut in case of any
leakage. Retighten the nut carefully
after checking the seal. To prevent any
water leakage and any other damage
to be caused by it, keep the taps
closed when the machine is not in
