•Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
•Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
•Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
•In case of damage to the refrigerant circuit, ventilate the area by opening all windows. Do not operate electrical equipment or any other
equipment that may produce arcs, sparks or flames in the area. Contact your Fisher & Paykel Authorized Repairer immediately to arrange for the appliance to be repaired.
•It is hazardous for anyone other than an authorized service person to service this appliance. In Queensland, the authorized service person must hold a gas work license or authorization for hydrocarbon refrigerants to carry our service or repairs which involve removal of covers.

5
SAFETY AND WARNINGS

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 Authorized Repairer as soon as possible.
All electrical repairs must be carried out by an adequately trained service technician or qualified electrician.
Cleaning

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 care’ 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 Authorized Repairer 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.
