Safety And Warnings - Fisher & Paykel WH1260F1 Installation Manual

Electric Shock Hazard
If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device
(eg multi-socket outlet box), ensure that it is positioned so that it does
not come into contact with water or moisture.
Failure to do so may result in death or electrical shock.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! When using your clothes washer, follow basic precautions, including
the following:
This clothes washer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
● ●
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are supervised or given instructions on how to use the
washer by someone responsible for their safety.
The washer should only be used for washing and rinsing of textiles where this
● ●
is indicated on the care label.
The door will be locked from the start of the cycle until the cycle is complete
● ●
for safety reasons. It is possible to open the door during the cycle under certain
conditions (refer to page 14).
Never force the door open.
● ●
Keep children away from the washer while it is in operation.
● ●
Supervise children to ensure they do not play with the washer or climb inside
● ●
the drum.
Do not touch the door during a cycle as the door can become hot.
● ●
Do not open the detergent dispenser during the cycle as hot water may come
● ●
out of it.
The only user-removable parts of the washer are the inlet hose(s), detergent
● ●
dispenser and the pump filter. No other parts are designed to be removed by
anyone other than a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.
When disposing of the washer, it is recommended that the door is removed to
● ●
avoid children getting trapped inside, and that the electrical cable is cut off close
to the washer.
Do not add petrol, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
● ●
substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapours that could ignite
or explode.
Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
● ●
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances as they give off vapours that could ignite or explode.
A damaged power cord must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel trained and
● ●
supported service technician or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard. Do not use the appliance until it has been repaired to avoid a risk of
electric shock.
