Installation instructions
Electrical connection
The dishwasher must not be connected to the electrical supply while installation is being carried
out. Ensure all domestic wiring is properly earthed.
Check the rating label (located on the left-hand side of the dishwasher’s stainless steel inner
door) and ensure that the voltage and frequency values for the current in the house correspond
to those on the rating label.
Insert the plug into a properly earthed power outlet that has a disconnection switch.
Important!
The earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law.
If the power cord is not long enough to reach the outlet or the outlet to which the appliance
must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, the entire dishwasher power cord must be
replaced. This should only be done by a Fisher & Paykel authorised technician. Do not modify or
cut the plug. Do not use an adaptor, extension cord, or multi-outlet power board to connect the
dishwasher to the power supply, as these could cause overheating and create a fire hazard.
The outlet into which the dishwasher is plugged must remain easily accessible (e.g. in an adjacent
cabinet) even when the appliance is installed. This is to ensure that the dishwasher can be
disconnected from the power supply for safe cleaning and maintenance.
Installer final checklist
Check that the door opens and closes freely without resistance to adjacent cabinetry.
Check that the plug is accessible.
Check that the dishwasher is level. If necessary, adjust the levelling feet slightly. To ensure
optimum performance, the diswasher should not be inclined more than 2

level.
