Welcome to AquaSmart T'v'
Thank you for buying a Fisher & Paykel AquaSm_rt _clothes washer. We are very proud of this
washer and trust it will serve you well for many years,
At Fisher & Paykel we aim to provide innovative products that are simple to use, ergonomic and
kind to the environment. Thousands of tonnes of washing and 70 years of laundry experience
have been programmed into your clothes washer to help give you the best possible performance.
"..!ourAqu_Sm_rt _ clothes washer works differently from a conventional washer. It is a"High
Efficiency" washer utilizing innovative technology to wash in less water and take great care of
your clothes.
The revolutionary, super water efficient wash action of your AquaSm_rt _ washer means that it
is no longer necessary to wash using a full bowl of water, This innovative wash action relies on
maintaining a small volume of water for the wash load to ensure the best wash results, Please be
aware that the water level for this model is fully automatic, with the machine 'smarts' choosing
the appropriate water volume for you. This means that there is no option to select your
water level,
It is important that you take the time to read these instructions carefully before you begin using
your washer. Like all High Efficiency washers, a little extra care in how you sort your clothes and
choose your cycle and detergent will ensure that you get the best possible wash result.
We hope you enjoy your new washer, we have certainly enjoyed designing it for you.
