STEP 3

1. Carefully pull the drain hose 

out from the back of the washer by

pulling the exposed part of the 

hose downwards and then out.

2. The hose guide is used to guide 

the drain hose over the tub or 
standpipe.  It MUST be fitted to the
drain hose.  To prevent siphoning 
the drain hose should not extend 
more than 3/4” (20mm) from the 
end of the guide.  If necessary, the
drain hose can be trimmed to length

3.Place the drain hose in laundry 

tub or standpipe.

Note: 
• In multi-storey apartments or any 

upper floor, the machine should be 
installed on a drained floor

• Check  that the tub or standpipe is 

free from lint or other obstructions.

• In basement installation do not 

exceed standpipe height. (78”)

STEP 1

1. Remove outer packaging.

2. Tilt the machine backwards and

walk the machine off the bottom
packer.  The plastic bottom packer
can now be removed from the
machine.  

STEP 2 

1. Lift lid and remove cardboard 

basket packer from under lid.

2.Keep the bottom packer and 

basket packer in case they are 
required for future transit.

3. Remove hoses, accessories and 

installation pack.

•4 rubber inserts for the

leveling feet

•1 drain hose guide

STEP 4

1.Install hoses with straight end (with
filters) onto the faucets.

2.Install elbow ends onto washing
machine (inlet valves are marked on
the back of the machine H=hot,
C=cold)

STEP 5

1. Insert the four rubber leveling feet 

inserts into the feet on the base of 
the washer.

2. Move the washer into its final 

position.  We suggest a minimum 
clearance of 1” (25mm) on 
each side for ease of installation.

3. Turn on water and check hose 

connections for leaks.  Make sure 

there are no kinks in the hoses.

4. It is IMPORTANT to level the washer

to give proper performance in spin.

Make sure the rubber inserts are in
the adjustable feet on the base of 
the washer.  Adjust the feet by 
unscrewing/screwing to make sure

the washer is level and cannot rock.

If there is a cold water supply

only, an inlet valve cap (available from
Fisher & Paykel) MUST be connected to 
the hot valve.  The cap prevents water
leaking out the hot valve. Cold water
connection is required.

5. Use the walls and adjacent counter 

tops as a sight guide to check to 
see if washer appears level.  
Readjust the feet if necessary.

6. Please test machine in permanent 

press cycle.

7. Open lid and check the washer 

basket to see that it sits slightly 
forward of centre (see illustration).

The minimum ventilation clearance
between the washer and adjacent
walls or other surfaces is:

1” (25mm) either side and front
3” (75mm) rear

NOTE:  The clearances stated are
minimums.  Consideration must be
given to providing adequate
clearance for installation and
servicing.

Minimum vertical space from floor to
overhead shelves, cabinets, ceilings
etc is 59” (1500mm).

Closet doors must be louvered or
otherwise ventilated and have at
least 60 square inches open area for
a washer only, or if the closet
contains both a washer and dryer,
doors must contain at least 120
square inches of open area equally
distributed.

Caution: DO NOT INSTALL THIS
APPLIANCE IN A CLOSET WITH A
SOLID DOOR.

This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug.  The
plug must be plugged in to an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of

equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock.  Check
with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if you are in doubt as to
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.
