SAFETY AND WARNINGS
INSTALLATION
z
The anti-tip bracket and fittings supplied must be fitted tothe wall of the finished
enclosure to withstand a 220lbs (100kg) load.
z
Ensure that the anti-tip bracket is installed correctly to prevent the possibility of the
appliance tipping forward when the door is open.
z
Ensure the door of the appliance is closed when rolling into thecabinetry.
z
Ensure the power cord is not run over or damaged when rolling the product
into the cabinetry.
z
For flush installation, ensure the door panels are installed flush with cabinetry front
surface. Ensure the appliance is properly centered.
z
All four corners of the appliance must be supported firmly on the floor to eliminate
any movement. Installing the appliance on a soft, uneven, or not level floor may cause
twisting and poor door sealing.
z
Use low speed, low torque setting when using a powered driver for the screws when
fixing or aligning the product.
z
Open the appliance door to remove the alignment brackets from both sides of the
appliance, and then re-tighten the screws.
z
When removing the top door extrusion, ensure the magnet remains in place and not
damaged as this will affect the operation of the appliance.
Stainless steel panel

Protect the finish of the Fisher and Paykel Stainless Steel door panels from any
scratch or damage.
z
Remove the blue tape attached to inner edges of the door panels after the
handles are installed.
z
We recommend to load the shelves in the appliance door with weights to ensure an
accurate door panel gap width. Load 33lbs (15kg) for 24" models, and 44lbs (20kg)
for 30" models.
Custom panel
z
If using Custom door panels, ensure they are prepared as per 'Custom door panel install
dimensions' section.
z
The thickness of the custom door panel can vary as long as the screws do not penetrate
beyond the full depth of the door panel, and as long as the overall weight of door panel
does not exceed the allowable weight. Refer to 'Door panel dimensions' for maximum
door panel weight of your product.
z
Do not place the handle holes in marked areas to avoid clashing with panel
attachment brackets.
z
Minimum panel thickness where screw hole is drilled must be 5/8" (16mm).
Changing the door hinge (optional)
z
Door hinges are interchangeable for each model. A hinge change kit is available
