INTRODUCTION
Thank you and congratulations for making the wise decision in purchasing your
Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer. Every care has been taken in designing and
manufacturing your appliance. We are sure that you will enjoy using your
DishDrawer and will soon appreciate its many benefits. We wish you many years of
satisfying use.
Unique Features of Your DishDrawerTM
By now you will be aware that Fisher & Paykel's DishDrawer is a unique
dishwasher, which offers benefits no other dishwasher can.
The DishDrawer takes the everyday kitchen drawer - long recognised as the most
efficient, easy to access storage system in the kitchen - and turns it into the most
advanced dishwasher in the world.
If you have chosen a double DishDrawer, or more than one single DishDrawer, you
will have totally separate, independently operated washing units, introducing loading
and washing possibilities that have never before been possible.
Now you can treat precious glassware to a delicate wash and give pots and pans the
heavy duty treatment - all at the same time.
The Clutter-Free Counter Top Becomes A Reality
Now it really is possible to keep your counter top free from everyday clutter like tall
glasses and awkward serving dishes. The double DishDrawer's spacious
configuration gives you many new ways to load your machine - and use it.
Used cleverly, two DishDrawers can even provide extra kitchen storage. Use clean
dishes directly from one drawer and load them back into the other drawer when dirty.
Design Your Own Rack System
With flexible, interchangable inserts the DishDrawer can be arranged to
accommodate the way you live and the dishes you use most often. Inserts are easy to
remove so it is easy to change your layout as your daily needs change.
If you have two DishDrawers, you can arrange one drawer for all your lightly soiled
cups, saucers and fine glassware - including long-stemmed glasses - and wash them
using a delicate cycle. Set up your other drawer for your more robust, heavily-soiled
items like plates, pots and pans. Inserts can easily be removed completely to fit
awkward preparation or serving dishes.

The Guilt-Free Small Load
All DishDrawer models make the small, guilt-free load a reality. The DishDrawer
minimizes water and energy consumption with each drawer using less than half the
water of a conventional dishwasher. By washing smaller loads more frequently, you
need never run out of clean dishes.
Gentler Introduction of Detergent
The DishDrawer's innovative detergent dispenser thoroughly pre-mixes water with
detergent before it is introduced into the drawer, so your delicate dishes are protected
from "detergent burn". Precise markings inside the dispenser ensure you never use
too much or too little detergent for each program.
Big On the Inside
Each DishDrawer has been carefully designed to give you more usable space than
ever before.
Each DishDrawer can accommodate 12 large dinner plates up to 11.4" in diameter. A
deeper drawer design means large plates can be loaded into the drawer while cups
and glasses can be safely stacked into the two levels.
Fisher & Paykel strongly recommends that you read the information contained in
this Use & Care Manual before using the DishDrawer.
ACCESSORIES
Each DishDrawer is supplied with the following:
·Basket
·Cutlery Basket
·Mega Rack
·Drain Filter Access Panel
·Plate Insert

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Warning - When using your DishDrawer, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
For your safety the information in this manual must be followed to minimize
the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or
loss of life.
Please read all instructions before operating the DishDrawer.
Use the DishDrawer only for its intended function as described in this Use and
Care Manual.
Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a Dishwasher
and keep them out of reach of children.
When loading items to be washed
1. Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the lid seal and
2. Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut type
injuries.
Do not touch the heater plate during or immediately after use.
Do not operate your DishDrawer unless all the enclosure panels are properly
in place.
Do not tamper with the controls.
Do not abuse, sit on, stand in or on the drawer or dish rack of the DishDrawer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the
DishDrawer.
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water heater
system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period,
before using the dishwasher, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen
gas. As gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old
dishwasher from service or discarding it.
Installation
This DishDrawer must be installed and located in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation
Instruction book with your DishDrawer, you can obtain one by calling toll free
1 888 9 FNP USA (1 888 9 367 872).
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified technician.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment - grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment - grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Ensure the DishDrawer is secured to the floor or adjacent joinery using the
brackets provided. Failure to do so may result in an unstable product, which
may cause damage or injury.

Do not store or use gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of the DishDrawer.
Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid
electrical overload.

below freezing or exposed to weather.
Do not use an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (e.g. multi
socket outlet box) to connect the DishDrawer to the power supply.
Maintenance
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in this Use and Care Manual. We
recommend that you call a Fisher & Paykel Authorized Service Agent.
Keep the floor around your appliance clean and dry to reduce the possibility of
slipping.
Keep the area around / underneath your appliance free from the accumulation
of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags and chemicals.
When cleaning the underside of the filter plate, care must be taken on the
sharp outer edge to avoid the risk of cut type injuries.

The DishDrawer must be used with the motor assembly, filter plate, drain filter
and spray arm in place.
When disconnecting the appliance pull the plug rather than the cord or
junction of cord to avoid damage.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children or persons with a disability that may limit their ability to use the
appliance, should have a competent person instruct them in its use. This
person should be satisfied that they can then use the appliance without danger
to themselves or their surroundings.
Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do
not allow children to play inside, on or with this appliance or any discarded
appliance.
The DishDrawer is designed for washing normal household utensils. Items that

water supply to the DishDrawer off.
It is important that the Use & Care Manual should be retained with the appliance for
future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, always

Start / Pause
This button has a number of functions. It serves to:
·Start the DishDrawer once the desired wash program has been selected.
·Interrupt the wash program while in operation.
To pause the DishDrawer, press the Start / Pause button and wait until you
have heard two additional beeps before you open the drawer, allowing the lid
seal to deflate. While in pause mode, the light above the Start / Pause button
will flash.
·Restart the DishDrawer after being paused.
You may notice a delay after the Start / Pause button has been pressed. During
this time the lid seal will be inflating.
·One Button Start.
This starts the DishDrawer and will run the last wash program used.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances do we recommend that you open the DishDrawer while in
operation unless you have pressed the Start / Pause button. If the drawer is opened
during the wash program, there is a possibility of getting wet, burnt, or damaging the
DishDrawer. There are safety mechanisms in place to stop the DishDrawer if it is
opened.
If a red light appears above the Start / Pause button, check the secondary control panel
and note which lights are lit up. If the red lights above the rinse and fast are lit this
indicates that the door was opened during the wash program. To remove this fault,
ensure the drawer is closed and press Power. The DishDrawer will now be ready to
start from the beginning of the wash program. You may have to add more detergent in
the dispenser and then press Start / Pause button to start the DishDrawer. The
DishDrawer will not restart where it was interrupted after a fault.
Lock
The Lock function disables all the other functions on the
DishDrawer. This function is useful when cleaning the
control panel and can also prevent children from turning
the DishDrawer on or off accidentally. This button can be
used when the DishDrawer is in operation and will remain
active until the Lock is deactivated.
To activate this function, press and hold the Lock button
until the red light above it appears continuously and is no
longer blinking. All the other buttons are now inactive.
To deactivate this function, press and hold Lock button
until the red light above this button has disappeared.
