WATER MIXING VALVE
The water mixing valve is located inside the
left rear cabinet area, when viewing from the
front. It is secured by two (2) screws inserted
through the valve bracket and into the cabi­
net. The hot and cold water supply inlet hoses
are attached to the nozzles of the water valve.
The mixing valve will allow hot or cold water,
or a mixture of the two as called for by the
control circuitry, to enter the machine through
the inlet hose and inlet flume.
Usually, the temperature of the warm water
entering the machine will be about halfway
between the cold and hot water temperatures
delivered to the valve. This will occur when
the flow rate of both are equal.
