Unpacking
WARNING!
Recycle or destroy the carton and plastic bags after the washer is unpacked. Make
materials inaccessible to children. Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with
rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers causing suffocation.
To ensure the best performance from your new washer please follow the instructions below.
Removing the packaging:
1Remove the outer packaging. Note: a small amount of water may be seen inside the
packaging and inside the washer. This is the result of factory testing and is normal.
2Tilt the machine backwards and ‘walk’ it off the base one foot at a time. Not doing so
may cause damage to your floor and washer.
3Remove all packaging and accessories from inside the drum. Note: DO NOT remove the
screw or clip holding the hose.
Removing the transit bolts
The clothes washer is fitted with 4 transit bolts at the rear to avoid damage during
transportation.
IMPORTANT!
The 4 transit bolts MUST be removed prior to operation of the machine. Failure to
remove these will result in damage to the machine.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If you have an uncontrolled water heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating
system) you should fit a tempering valve. This will ensure the hot water temperature
remains within safe limits.
Contact your registered plumber to select and install the tempering valve.
IMPORTANT!
●This appliance must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions before use.
●Provide accessibility to the plug or incorporate a switch in the fixed wiring in
accordance with the wiring rules to allow disconnection of the appliance from the
supply after installation.
Water supply requirements
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within 42” (107cm) of your washer’s
water inlet. The faucets MUST be 3/4” (1.9cm) garden hose-type so inlet hoses can be
connected. Water pressure MUST be between 10 and 120 pounds per square inch. Your
water department can advise you of your water pressure. The hot water temperature
should be set to deliver water at 120° to 140°F (48°–60°C) to provide proper
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) performance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT!
●If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-
socket outlet box), ensure that it is positioned so that it does not come into contact
with water or moisture. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR ELECTRICAL
SHOCK.
●Do not touch or operate the machine with wet hands or with bare-feet.
●A damaged power cord must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported
service technician, in order to avoid a hazard. The appliance must not be operated
until it is repaired, as there is risk of electric shock.
●Do not operate this machine if it has been damaged during transport. Contact your
Fisher & Paykel dealer or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.

BEFORE YOU DO YOUR FIRST WASH
Before you start, it is a good idea to go through the following checklist:
1Have the packaging and transit bolts been removed?
2Is the drain hose threaded through the ‘Ubend’ (with no more than 3/4” (20mm)
extended) and hooked into your standpipe or tub, or attached to a spigot?
3Is the hot hose connected to the hot valve (color-coded orange, if present)? Is the
cold hose connected to the cold valve (color-coded white)? Have the faucets been
turned on?
4Is the machine correctly leveled, feet are locked and cabinet corners clear of the floor
and walls?
5Has the power cord been connected to an appropriate power supply and the power
turned on?
6Have you performed the installation test cycle?
7We recommend you complete your first cycle with a half-load amount of detergent
and without a load in order to remove any residues remaining in the machine from the
manufacturing process.
IMPORTANT!
You must ensure all 4transit bolts have been removed from your washer before you
start using it. If the transit bolts are not removed, they will damage your washer and
YOUR LIMITED WARRANTY WILL BE COMPROMISED.
