INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Inlet hoses
IMPORTANT!
WARNING: Failure to adhere to the following instructions
may result in a flood and damage to property.
●
●
New hose sets provided with the washer shall be used to
connect the washer to the water supply.
●
●
Old hose sets should not be used.
●
●
We recommend replacing the inlet hoses every 5 years.
●
●
Hoses should be checked from time to time and replaced
if any wear, cuts, bulges, kinks or leaks are found.
1
Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps (there are washers fitted in
both ends). Connect the red connector hose to Hot, and the white connector hose
to Cold.
2
Connect the elbow ends of the inlet hoses to the corresponding washer inlet valves.
Inlet valves are marked on the back of the washer. Ensure the Hot valve is connected
to the hot tap and the Cold valve is connected to the cold tap.
H = Hot
C = Cold
Cold water supply only:
If you only have a cold water supply, a blanking cap MUST be connected to the Hot
inlet valve. The cap prevents water leaking out of the hot valve. The cap is available
from your Fisher & Paykel dealer or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service
technician, Part No. 388491P. This appliance incorporates backflow protection
complying with AS3500.1. No further backflow protection is required for connection to
the water supply.
Note: your washer does not have an internal heater to heat water.
Should you wish to use cold water only for all wash cycles, refer to ‘Customising wash
cycles’ on how to program your washer to remember your wash preferences.
