FLUSHING THE WATER FILTER
1 Press the water dispenser pad to dispense
4L of water. Wait for fourminutes before
dispensing again.
2 Dispense 4L of water and then wait for
another fourminutes. There may be
carbon residue dispensed together with
water. This is not harmful, and is normal
during the flushing process.
3 Dispense another 4L of water. This
prevents excessive dripping of water from
your dispenser.
There may be a few drips of water coming out of the dispenser for a few days after
installation. This is normal and occurs as the remaining trapped air is cleared from the system.
Ensure your refrigerator has cooled for at least 2hours beforeuse.

POSITIONING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Your Fisher&Paykel ActiveSmart™ refrigerator is fitted with front and rear rollers to allow
you to easily move your refrigerator forward and backward. Avoid moving your refrigerator
sideways to prevent damaging the rollers or the floor coveringsurface.
Your refrigerator will arrive with the front feet wound up to assist with moving the product
into its final location.
Roll the refrigerator into its final
position ensuring there is the
1
2
correct air gap between the product
and surrounding cabinetry. See
minimum clearance in cabinetry
dimensions table.
Adjust the front feet down until the
refrigerator is leaning backward with
the front approximately 10mm higher
than the back. This will ensure a
good door closing action.
Levelling of refrigerator doors

17mm
Using the spanner provided, turn the
hinge anti-clockwise to lift the door or
clockwise to drop the door.
The larger end of the spanner is for
use on the bottom of the upper doors
(centre hinges).
After adjustment on bottom hinges,
ensure there is clearance between
lower doors and centre hinge and
doors swing freely.
