Cold supply only:
If you only have a cold water supply, an inlet valve cap (blanking cap) MUST be connected to the hot inlet valve. The cap prevents water leaking out of the hot valve. The cap is available from your Fisher & Paykel Dealer or Authorised Repairer, Part No. 388491. This appliance incorporates backflow protection complying with AS3500.1. No further backflow protection is required for connection to the water supply.
Levelling
It is IMPORTANT to level the machine to ensure even spin performance.
1Separate the four rubber foot inserts from the moulding and fit into the feet on the base of the machine.
2Move the machine to its final position (we suggest a minimum clearance of 20 mm each side).
3Adjust the feet (wind down) so the machine is level and cannot rock.

To check if your machine is level:
Look down on the wash bowl and make sure it sits slightly forward of centre. Close the lid. Visually check that the lid fits evenly on both sides (see Fig.5). If not, adjust one of the front feet slightly until it matches. The diagram on the top and bottom are not correct.
