Failure to do so can result in death, electric shock, fire or injury to persons.
Please Note: to obtain maximum efficiency, your AquaSmart™ washer has the ability to learn and
adapt to the local environment. This may take several wash cycles, therefore maximum energy
efficiency may not be achieved until a number of wash cycles have been completed.
This usually takes about 5 cycles.

Introduction
Welcome to AquaSmart™
Thank you for buying a Fisher & Paykel AquaSmart™ clothes washer. We are 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 over 75 years of laundry experience
have been programmed into your clothes washer to help give you the best possible performance.
Your AquaSmart™ 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.

Water heater safety
Under certain conditions Hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been
used for two weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS CAN BE EXPLOSIVE UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or
injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes before
using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This will allow any
hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or

To prevent siphoning the drain hose should not
extend more than ¾”(20mm) from the end of the
guide. The height of the standpipe or tub / sink
should be between 33 ½” to 95”(850–2413 mm).
The drain hose can be trimmed to length.
3 Place the drain hose in the tub / sink or standpipe. Do
not fit the hose to a drain spigot. Drainage must not
be airtight in order to prevent siphoning.
Important!

In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor installation, the washer should be installed on a
floor that is equipped with a drain.

Check that the tub or standpipe is free from lint or other obstructions before operating the washer.

In a basement installation do not exceed a standpipe height of 96” (2438 mm).
Inlet hoses
Important!

New hose sets provided with the washer shall be used to connect the washer to the water mains.

Old hose sets should not be re-used.
1 Install hoses with the straight end (with filters) fitted
to the faucets (refer to Fig.4).

are marked on the back of the washer H=hot, C=cold)
(refer to Fig.5). Ensure the hot valve is connected to
the hot faucet and the cold valve is connected to the
cold faucet.
Inlet hose replacement
We recommend the inlet hoses are changed every 5 years. Hoses should also be checked from
time to time and replaced if any wear, cuts, bulges, kinks or leaks are found. WARNING!: Failure to
do so may result in a flood and damage to property.

Leveling instructions
It is IMPORTANT to level the machine to ensure good spin performance and effective
detergent and fabric softener dispensing.
A spirit level is provided with your machine. Use this to level your machine, placing it bottom
side down in the locations specified below (ensure the surfaces are clean). The machine is
level when the bubble sits in the center, within the two lines.
Your washer is equipped with self-locking feet to ensure they do not move once you have
leveled your machine. To adjust the feet, tip the washer back or forward to locate the foot you
wish to adjust, pull down gently and then twist to move it up or down to the required level.
Repeat if necessary.
Important!
After leveling, the corners of the washer
should be clear of the floor (by at least
⁄”(10 mm) and the machine must not rock
in any direction.
1 If not already installed, fit the rubber inserts
into all 4 feet on the base of the machine.
2 Extend all 4 feet by three full turns before
moving the machine to its final position.
3 Move the machine to its final position using
the top corners to manoeuvre the product
into place (do not push against the center
front of the machine). We recommend a
minimum clearance of ¾”(20mm) each
side and 2”(50mm) at the rear of the
machine.
4 With the lid closed, place the spirit level at
the center back of the lid (near the control
panel). If not level, pull the machine out
and adjust the rear feet until the machine is
level side to side when in position.
5 Open the lid. Place spirit level on the flat
surface on the left side, inline with the
center of the bowl. If necessary, adjust the
front left foot until the machine is level.

with the center of the bowl. If necessary,
adjust the front right foot until the machine
is level, and does not rock. There should
be equal weight on both front feet so that
neither can be turned by hand when the
machine is in position.
7 Place the spirit level at the center front of
the topdeck, forward of the lid lock slot.
Check the machine is level. Adjust the front
feet again if necessary. Move the spirit level
around to all positions once more, checking
the machine is level in all areas. Check the
machine does not rock side to side, front to
back, or corner to corner.
Important!

Keep your spirit level for the next time you
move or reposition your washer.

If moving or transporting your washer in
the future, ensure you tape the lid down
beforehand.
