SAFETY AND WARNINGS
READ AND SAVE THIS GUIDE
When using your Dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
General
- The information in this guide must be followed to minimise the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
- Use the Dishwasher only for its intended function as described in this guide.
- This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments
- farm houses
- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential environments
- bed and breakfast environments.
- NSF 184-Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
- Use only detergents or rinse aid recommended for use in a domestic dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after the completion of each wash program.
- When loading items to be washed, locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the Dishwasher and load sharp knives with the handle up to reduce the risk of cut injuries.
- Do not touch the filter plate in the Dishwasher base during or immediately after use, as it may be hot.
- Do not operate your Dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
- Do not tamper with the controls.
- Do not abuse, sit on, stand in or on the door or dish rack of the Dishwasher.
- The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
- The foldaway cup racks are designed to support cups, glasses and kitchen utensils. Do not lean on or use the foldaway cup racks to support your body weight.
- To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the Dishwasher.
- Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water heater system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the Dishwasher, turn on all hot water taps and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
- Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old Dishwasher from service or discarding it.
- Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the Dishwasher when the door is open.
- The Dishwasher must be used with the filter plate, filter, and spray arms in place. To identify what these parts are refer to ‘Maintenance’.
- If the Dishwasher is not being used for long periods of time, turn the electricity and water supply off.
- Cleaning and maintenance shall not be done by children without supervision.
- Take care not to load dishware items so they prevent the door from closing.
- Household appliances are not intended to be used by children. Children of less than 8 years old must be kept away from the appliance unless continuously supervised. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above, and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and they understand the hazards involved.
- If a dishwasher cleaner is used, we recommend running a wash program with detergent immediately afterward to prevent any damage.
- The Dishwasher is designed for washing normal household utensils. Items that are contaminated by petrol, paint, steel, iron debris, corrosive, acidic or alkaline chemicals are not to be washed in the Dishwasher.
- Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked dishwasher safe or equivalent. For plastic items not marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
- Avoid washing containers with glued on labels. Labels removed during a wash cycle may cause damage to the wash system.
Installation
- This Dishwasher must be installed and located in accordance with the Installation instructions before it is used. If you did not receive Installation instructions with your Dishwasher, you can order them by calling your Authorised Repairer or download them from our local Fisher & Paykel website, listed on the back cover.
- Installation and service must be performed by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.
- If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician or a qualified trades person in order to avoid a hazard.
- Ensure the Dishwasher is secured to adjacent cabinetry using the brackets provided. Failure to do so may result in an unstable product, which may cause damage or injury.
- Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged power supply cord or plug.

Dishware
The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage
to some items. Refer to the manufacturer’s guidance or wash by hand if in
doubt.
Cutlery & silverware
Rinse cutlery and silverware immediately after use to prevent tarnishing. We
recommend using the RINSE cycle. Silver should not come into contact with
stainless steel, mixing these can cause staining. Remove silver cutlery from
the dishwasher and hand dry immediately.
Aluminium
Aluminium can be dulled by detergent. The degree of change depends on the
quality of the detergent or aluminium.
Other metals
Iron and cast iron can rust and stain other items. Copper, pewter and brass
tend to stain.
Woodware
Woodware is generally sensitive to heat and water. Regular use in the
dishwasher may cause deterioration over time.
Glassware
Most glassware is dishwasher safe. Crystal, very fine and antique glassware
may etch and develop a cloudy appearance.
Plastics
Some plastics may change shape or colour with hot water. Refer to the
manufacturer’s guide. Dishwasher safe plastic should be weighed down so it
does not flip and fill with water or fall through the base rack during the
wash.
Decorated items
Most modern china patterns are dishwasher safe. Antique items, those with a
pattern painted over the glaze, gold rims or hand painted china may be more
sensitive to machine washing.
Glued items
Certain adhesives are softened or dissolved in machine washing.
Water hardness
Hard water is water with a high concentration of minerals such as calcium and
magnesium.
It can be detrimental to the performance of your dishwasher and parts can fail
over time.
Glassware washed in hard water will become cloudy over time and dishes will
become spotted or covered in a white film. Water hardness varies by
geographical location.
If your home has hard water
-
Refer to ‘Water softener’ and ‘Powdered detergent quantity recommendations’.
-
Use rinse aid. We recommend you raise the rinse aid setting to 6 to help improve wash performance. Refer to ‘Preferences’ for details.
Use a dishwasher cleaner/descaler regularly, or whenever you notice a build-up of limescale deposits in your dishwasher.
If your home has soft or softened water -
Avoid using too much detergent.
LOADING SUGGESTIONS
When loading your Dishwasher ensure items are placed so water coming from the
rotating spray arm below can reach all areas. Wash performance will be reduced
if it can’t.
Your dishwasher can hold up to a maximum of 15 place settings.
Ensure
- Lower and middle spray arms can rotate freely.
- Tall items do no obstruct the upper spray arm.
- Glass and other fragile items are stable.

DETERGENT
WARNING: Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children and infirm persons away from the dishwasher when it is open. Check the powdered detergent dispenser is empty after each wash.
Unsuitable detergents
These types of detergent are not suitable and may damage your dishwasher or
lead to a service call that is not covered by warranty:
- Liquid detergents
- Laundry detergents
- Hand washing liquids
- Soaps
- Disinfectants
Using powdered detergent
For powdered detergent quantities, refer to the following ‘Powdered detergent
quantity recommendations’ table and the detergent manufacturer’s guidance. No
detergent is needed for RINSE.
Check that the detergent dispenser is empty and dry. Add powdered detergent or tablets to the dispenser.
Remove any excess detergent then slide the cover closed. It will click into
place.
If required, add additional detergent to the pre-wash compartment on top of
the dispenser.
When washing heavily soiled dishware in hard water, more detergent may be required. Refer to ‘Powdered detergent quantity recommendations’.
Powdered detergent quantity recommendations
- Use the table below to determine the optimal powdered detergent quantity for each wash program.
- If you have hard water in your area, more detergent may be required. Refer to ‘Water hardness’ for more details

---|---|---|
AUTO | None | 1/2 – 2/3 |
HEAVY | Full | 2/3 |
MEDIUM | Full | 2/3 |
LIGHT* | None | 1/2 |
ECO | Full | 2/3 |
60MIN | Full | 1/2 |
RINSE | n/a | n/a |
GLASSWARE | Full | 2/3 |
*tablets are not recommended for the LIGHT cycle.
RINSE AID
Rinse aid provides a streak-free finish to glass and dishware as well as
preventing metal from tarnishing. We recommend using a liquid rinse aid
regularly for optimal drying results.
The rinse aid dispenser is located on the inside of the door next to the
detergent dispenser.
Using rinse aid
The amount of rinse aid dispensed in each wash may need to be adjusted to suit
your water conditions. Refer to ‘Preferences’ and ‘Water hardness’ for
guidance.
When the rinse aid level is low, the rinse aid indicator on the control panel
will light up to remind you to refill the dispenser.
Lift the cover open and pour rinse aid into the opening.
Do not fill past the MAX line. Take care not to spill any onto the door or
detergent bucket.
Close the cover, ensuring it clicks shut.
Any accidental spillages into the dishwasher or detergent bucket must be
cleaned up immediately.
Spilt rinse aid may result in excessive foaming. A service call relating to
these errors will not be covered by warranty.
WATER SOFTENER
The water softener produces a salt solution to soften the water in regions
with hard water. It maintains good wash performance and prevents scale
buildup. You do not need to use this feature if you have a household water
softener installed.
Refer to the ‘Water hardness scales’ table to determine the best water
softener setting. You may hear some noises when the water softener is
operating. This is normal. Using the salt reservoir
The salt reservoir must always be filled with granular salt designed for
dishwasher water softening. We do not recommend the use of cooking salt, like
table salt, rock salt or pellets, as they may contain impurities that will
damage the water softener. Do not add detergent or rinse aid to the salt
reservoir. This will cause damage.
The salt reservoir is located in the base, below the lower rack. It holds up
to approximately 750g of salt (actual capacity will vary depending on brand
and grain size of salt used).
When the salt reservoir is low, the salt indicator on the control panel will light up to remind you to refill the reservoir.
Turn the cover anticlockwise, then pull to remove. Add salt to the reservoir using the funnel provided. For first use, add the salt and approximately 1 litre of water.
Replace the cover and turn clockwise to close.
When filling the salt reservoir, you may notice water being displaced from the water softener overflow. This is normal. If you are not washing your dishes immediately after filling the salt reservoir, we recommend running a RINSE cycle to remove any salt water or spilt granules.
Water softener recommendations
- Use the table below to determine the optimal water softening setting. Your local water company will be able to help. Refer to ‘Preferences’ for how to set the water softener.
- If you have a household water softener installed, use the HD1 setting, irrespective of the water hardness in your area.
- If your water hardness is above 890 ppm/60 gpg, the wash performance of your dishwasher will decline over time. The rinse aid setting should be at 5.
