1 SAFETY AND WARNINGS

!

 WARNING!

Electric Shock Hazard
Read and follow the safety and warnings
outlined in this installation guide before
operating this appliance.
Failure to do so can result in death,
electricshock, fire or injury topersons.

!

 WARNING!

Cut Hazard
Take care — panel edges are sharp.
Failure to use caution could result in injury
or cuts.

!

 WARNING!

This appliance is top-heavy and must
be secured to prevent the possibility of
tippingforward.
To ensure that the appliance is stable under
allloading conditions, theanti-tip bracket
and fittings supplied must be installed
according tothe following installation
instructions by aprofessional installer.

IMPORTANT!

●

It is very important for the installer to follow the instructions in this installation guide
to ensure proper installation and operation of the appliance. Ensure that you read the
installation guide thoroughly and understand all information.

●

The water connection to your Ice and water appliance must be installed by an
authorized plumber or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician
andcomply with all state and local laws.

●

Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
Checkwithyour local public works department for plumbing codes.
Youmustfollowtheir guidelines as you install the water filtration system.

●

To avoid serious illness or death, only connect your water filter to safe drinking water.

●

The water filter cartridge needs to be changed when the replacement indicator icon
illuminates. This will happen every 6 months.

●

If the water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge.
Failureto replace the disposable filter at recommended intervals may lead to reduced
filter performance and failure of the filter, causing property damage from water
leakageor flooding.

●

In cases of excessively reduced filter life — we recommend that you consult a local
plumber or your water supplier for advice on suitable filtration requirements for the
water supplied to your home.

●

Filter replacement is the consumer’s responsibility and will not be covered by the
warranty except in the case of faulty parts or materials within the filter cartridge.

●

If the water has not created ice for some time or ice has an unpleasant taste or odor
dispose of ice and refer to the flushing instructions detailed in the installation section
of this user guide / installation guide. If unpleasant taste or odor persists, you may
wishto fit a new filter cartridge.

●

Use new tubing supplied with the appliance. DO NOT reuse old tubing from old water
and ice connections.

●

Your water filtration system can withstand up to 120psi (827kPa) of water pressure.
Ensure the supplied pressure reducing valve is installed before installing the water
filtration system. DO NOT install if water pressure exceeds 120psi (827kPa).

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage or flooding:

●

DO NOT install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 38°C or
drop below 0.6°C.

●

DO NOT install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature
of this filter system is 38°C.

●

DO NOT install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer
conditions exist, you must install a water hammer arrester.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk associated with choking:

●

DO NOT allow children under 3 years of age to have access to small parts during the
installation of the water filter.
