The connection method may differ depending on the type of water supply hose and the shape of the faucet. Please check them first.
If you wish to extend the length of the water supply hose because it is short, please purchase a water supply hose suitable for the washing machine model from the LG Electronics homepage’s [care goods/consumables] section or the nearest LG Electronics service center and use it as a replacement.
