FLUSHING THE WATER FILTER

1 Press the water dispenser pad to dispense
4L of water. Wait for fourminutes before dispensing again.
2 Dispense 4L of water and then wait for
another fourminutes. 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 2hours beforeuse.

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 coveringsurface.
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
3
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.

Gently push the refrigerator back until the rear rollers contact the floor.
Measure the gap under the front foot, which has come off the floor.
Obtain some solid packing material (hardwood, plastic,etc) which fits firmly into the gap under the foot.
Wind both front feet up and roll the product out ofposition.
Place the packing material in the location diagonally opposite the front roller that lifts off the floor.
Ensure the packing material stays in place when the product is pushed back into position.
