SAFETY AND WARNINGS

WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, injury to persons or damage when using the appliance, follow the important safety instructions listed below. Read all the guidance before using the appliance.
Servicing
z Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this guide. All other servicing should be undertaken by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician or qualified person.
Installation
z Ensure all water connections are turned OFF. It is the responsibility of the plumber and electrician to ensure that each installation complies with all Codes and Regulations.
z The dishwasher MUST be installed to allow for future removal from the enclosure if service is required.
z The switched power outlet must be outside the dishwasher cavity, so that it is accessible after installation.
z This dishwasher is manufactured for indoor use only. z Care should be taken when the appliance is installed or removed to reduce the likelihood
of damage to the power supply cord and hoses. z If the dishwasher is to be relocated from one installation to another it must be kept
upright to avoid damage from water spillage. z Make sure only new hoses are used for connection (supplied with the dishwasher). Old
hoses should not be reused. z Failure to install the dishwasher correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims. z Ensure the dishwasher is placed between cabinetry. Failure to do so may result in an
unstable product, which may cause damage or injury. z 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. z Do not store or use petrol, or other flammable vapours and liquids in the vicinity of
the dishwasher. z Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid
electrical overload. z Make sure that the power supply cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over or otherwise subject to damage or stress. z Do not install or store the dishwasher where it will be exposed to temperatures below
freezing or exposed to weather. z Do not use an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (e.g. multi-socket
outlet box) to connect the dishwasher to the power supply. z This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. z This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an
earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. z EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS – This appliance must be connected to a earthed metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-earthing conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-earthing terminal or lead on the appliance. z Ensure the product is not plugged in when fitting custom panels. z Installation of custom panels requires basic mechanical and electrical skills. z Installation must comply with your local building and electricity regulations.
