Fisher & Paykel WL26CW1 Installation Instructions And User Manual page 9

Water supply
This washer must be plumbed into both a hot and cold water supply or it will not work
correctly. Please ensure that both hot and cold water are connected to the washer.
If you have an uncontrolled water-heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating) you should
have a tempering device fitted. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within
safe limits. For the most suitable type of tempering device we recommend you contact a local
plumber or plumbing supply merchant.
Inlet Water Static Pressure 3psi (20kPa) to 150psi (1MPa).
(If using a header tank then the top of the header tank must be at least 39" (2 m) above the top
of your clothes washer).
Minimum flow rate from the faucet supplying the clothes washer should be greater than
1 ½ gallons/min (6 liters/min) (assumes ½" (12.7 mm) diameter pipes).
Minimum height of faucets to clear the top of the washer is 45" (1150 mm).
Draining
Regularly check that your standpipe or set tub/sink is free from lint or other obstructions, which
may affect how your washer works or may cause flooding.
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the washer should be installed on a drained floor.
Draining must comply with local by-laws.
Clothes washer safety
This clothes washer is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
Please supervise young children to ensure they do not play with this clothes washer.
Important!
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.
