Connecting To The Drain; Electrical Connection - Fisher & Paykel WH60F60W Series Installation Instructions And User Manual

Connecting to the drain

The water drain hose should be placed either at the side of a basin or tub, or connected directly
■ ■
to the wastewater standpipe.
The elbow/guide, supplied with the machine, should be fitted to the drain hose before being
■ ■
connected directly into the tub or wastewater standpipe.
The drain hose should not be sharply bent.
■ ■
The drain hose needs to be kept at an elevated height of at least 400 mm with a maximum
■ ■
height of 1 m. If the hose is placed at the floor level, or close to the floor (less than 400 mm
above the ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the laundry may come out wet.
Fig.4 Drain hose set up
The drain hose should extend a maximum of 20 mm past the end of the elbow/guide.
■ ■
The drain hose can be trimmed to length.
■ ■
The maximum length of an extended drain hose is 3.2 m.

Important!
If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-socket outlet
■ ■

■ ■
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. The appliance must not be operated until it is
repaired, as there is risk of electric shock.
