•Do not plug in any other appliance at the same power point as your refrigerator or use extension cords or double adapters.
•Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion along its length or at either the plug or appliance end.
•If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician because special purpose tools are required.
•When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
•WARNING: Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
IMPORTANT!
Your refrigerator is designed to operate for many years without the need for service checks. However, if your refrigerator is malfunctioning, have it attended to by your Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician as soon as possible. All electrical repairs must be carried out by an adequately trained service technician or qualified electrician.
Cleaning
•Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents that may attack the plastic components of your refrigerator and cause them to crack.
6
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
•Avoid using anti-bacterial cleaning products on either the interior or exterior of the cabinet as they may cause rusting of metal components and cracking of plastic components.
•Please refer to the ‘Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator’ section of this user guide for further information.
Disposal
•Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards:
–The flammable refrigerant gas must be safely removed.
–The thermal insulation foam in this appliance contains flammable insulation blowing gases, any exposed foam may be highly flammable and must be carefully treated during disposal.
–The doors and panels should be removed and the shelves left in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
•Your Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician will be able to give advice on environmentally friendly methods of disposing of your old refrigerator or freezer.
Storing food and drinks
•Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
•Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator as they may explode.
•Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may cause the container to explode.
7
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
•Never freeze carbonated drinks. They may explode.
•Do not consume food if it is too cold. Food removed from the freezer compartment may be cold enough to cause damage when brought into contact with bare skin, eg frozen ice cubes.
Power failure — food safety
•Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat. Follow the recommendations below if you discover food in your freezer has thawed:
–Ice crystals still visible — food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than recommended.
–Thawed but refrigerator cold — refreezing generally not recommended. Fruits and some cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry — use immediately or cook then refreeze. Vegetables — discard as they usually go limp and soggy.
–Thawed and warmer than 5°C — discard all food.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please follow the installation steps below to ensure your appliance operates correctly.
1.Power
●●The appliance must be installed so the plug is accessible.
●●To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your refrigerator to its own power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use extension cords and double adaptors, as the combined weight of both power cords can pull the double adaptor from a wall outlet socket.

IMPORTANT!
●●It is imperative the pressure reducing valve (PRV) is fitted prior to the filter. If the PRV is not fitted to the connection line, the Ice & Water features may not function in some circumstances.
●●The water connection to your Ice & Water refrigerator must be installed by an authorised plumber or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.
●●The water connection instructions below are intended only for the professional installer.
●●The new tubings supplied with the refrigerator are to be used, old tubings from old water and ice connections should not be used.
●●Replacement parts are available through Customer Care or online at www.fisherpaykel.com (this service is available to selected markets only).
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS/WARNING
●●DO NOT use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
●●WARNING — connect to potable water supply only.
●●DO NOT install on line pressure above 119psi (827kPa) or below 22psi (150kPa).
●●DO NOT use on hot water supply 38°C max.
●●DO NOT cut any length of tube shorter than 200mm.
●●DO NOT install near electrical wires or water pipes that will be in the path of drilling when selecting the location of filter system.
●●DO NOT mount filter in such a position so that it will be struck by other items, such as wastebaskets, etc.
●●DO NOT install the filter or any water tubing in direct sunlight as prolonged exposure to light can weaken plastic components.
●●DO NOT install in a location that is susceptible to freezing temperatures as damage to the housing could occur.
●●DO NOT screw filter to the refrigerator.
●●DO NOT install the filter or any water tubing in high temperature areas eg in a ceiling cavity.
●●AVOID contamination of pipes during installation.
●●DO NOT use copper tubing. The plastic tubing supplied should always be used.
●●DO NOT continuously dispense water for longer than 2 minutes.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation instructions:
1Ensure the refrigerator is NOT plugged into a power supply.
2Locate a cold water supply/feed only suitable
for a water connection. Tee and tap fitting is not supplied.
3Connect the 200mm (8”) tubing to the outlet of the PRV (blue collet) and the inlet connection of the water filter cartridge as shown in Diagram 1. Gently pull on both ends to ensure it is locked.
4Connect the 6mm (1/4”) tubing to the outlet of the water filter cartridge as shown in Diagram 2. Gently pull to ensure it is locked.
5Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV to the water connection point (no
less than 250mm).
6Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.
7Connect the tubing to the faucet connection and the base of the PRV (white collet) and then to the faucet as shown in Diagram 3. Please note that the faucet connection supplied should fit most installation situations.
8Connect one locking key to each side of the water filter cartridge in between the cartridge
and the locking collet as shown in Diagram 4.
9To flush the water filter of any trapped air, harmless carbon fines and to also check for
leaks, aim the end of the tubing into a bucket, turn isolating faucet on and run at least 4L of water through. Once complete, turn isolating faucet off.
!0 Locate desired position for water filter noting carefully the following points:
●●It is recommended to fit the water filter in a vertical orientation with the water filter head at the top. This will minimise water leakage when replacing cartridge.
●●Ensure the filter is in a convenient location to access every 6 months for replacement. We suggest that this location is beside the water filter supply faucet in a cupboard beside the refrigerator.
●●A minimum clearance of 64mm from the bottom of the filter cartridge is required to perform cartridge removal.
●●Do not screw water filter to refrigerator.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
!1 Attach double sided foam to the back of the water
filter head as shown in Diagram 5. Write the date to be replaced on the filter (date installed + 6 months).
Remove the double sided foam backing and attach the filter to the desired position, reinforcing the filter with the screws provided as located in step 10 (refer to the previous page).
!2 Run the 6mm (1/4”) tubing to the back of the refrigerator ensuring there is enough tubing to pull the refrigerator out for service.
!3 Using the measurement guide shown in Diagram 6, mark out 16mm, on the end of the tubing as shown in Diagram 7.
!4 Insert the tubing marked 16mm into the water (solenoid) valve up to the marked line as shown in Diagram 8.
!5 Pull gently on tubing to ensure it is locked in as shown in Diagram 9. !6 The completed installation should look like Diagram 6.
!7 Turn the isolating faucet on and check that all connections are dry and free of drips. !8 Coil water line tubing behind the refrigerator. Push your refrigerator into place being
careful not to kink or squash the water line tube running into the water (solenoid) valve. !9 Read pages 17 – 18 carefully and then turn refrigerator on.
