!1 BEFORE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT!
Ensure your appliance is not exposed to any heat generating appliance eg cooktop, oven or dishwasher.
The appliance has front and rear rollers for moving the appliance forward and backward. Do not move the appliance sideways to avoid damaging the rollers or the floor covering/surface.
The appliance must be installed by a qualified installer, or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician to avoid faulty electrical connection and water leaks.
All connections for water, electrical power and grounding must comply with local codes and ordinances and be made by licensed personnel when required.
Avoid installation of the appliance/s under a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
Ensure the appliance is installed properly. Improper installation that results in appliance failure is not covered under the appliance warranty.
Check the installation location
Check the cabinetry
Check the dimensions of the cabinetry (width, depth, height, floor level, finished alcove returns).
Ensure that the ventilation openings in the cabinetry are clear of obstruction.
Check the power supply connection
Ensure that there is a separate power outlet for each appliance.
Avoid sharing the power point with other appliances to prevent accidental switching off of the appliance.
For power requirements, please refer to the information on the serial plate.
Ensure your appliance is properly grounded (earthed).
Connect your appliance to an electrical supply with the fitted plug and lead.
We recommend to use an isolating switch that is easily accessible to the user after the appliance is installed.
Check the water supply connection (for Freezer models only)
We recommend connecting the hose to exit at an angle if there is not enough clearance between the cabinet wall and back of appliance.
Fisher & Paykel is not liable for damage (including water damage) caused by faulty installation or plumbing.
Check your appliance
Ensure that your appliance is the correct model as per your order.
Ensure that the packaging is not damaged upon delivery.
Check that the components and install kits are complete.
You have the option to change the door hinge side of your appliance from right hand hinge to left hand hinge or vice versa.
A hinge change kit is required for this installation. Refer to ‘Optional — Changing over door hinges’ for more information.
