Welcome to AquaSmart _'
Thank you for buying a Fisher & Paykel AquaSm_,rt ''_'clothes washer. We are proud of this washer
and trust it will serve you weBBfor 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 over 75 years of laundry experience
have been programmed into your clothes washer to help give you the best possible performance.
Your AquaSmort TM washer has an extra large capacity, numerous wash cycles and options, and
an ergonomic design so you can efficiently perform every wash task with ease. Your washer is a
'High Efficiency' machine utilizing innovative technology to wash in less water while taking great
care of your clothes. Similarly, taking extra care in the way you use your high efficiency washer
will help ensure you make the most of its capabilities.
The revolutionary water and energy efficient wash action of your AquaSmart ''¢washer means
that it is no longer necessary to wash using a full bowl of water. This innovative wash action
relies on rolling the clothes through a small volume of water to ensure optimal wash results.
Please be aware that the water level for this washer is fully automatic, meaning that there is no
option to manually select your water level
Please take the time to read these instructions carefully before you begin using your washer. Like
with all High Efficiency washers, a little extra care in how you sort your clothes and in choosing
your wash cycle and detergent, will ensure that you get the best possible performance from your
washer.
We hope you enjoy your new washer. We have certainly enjoyed designing it for you.
