INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WATER FILTER KIT
This will reduce water hammer and its effects from quick
action household taps and fast acting valves on appliances.
Where the tap connection is other than 1/2”, adapters
can be purchased from plumbing supply stores or good
hardware stores.
Water Filter
Locate the water filter within 1 metre from the water supply
tap, in a vertical position where possible. The filter will
need to be replaced every 12 months to prevent excess
filtered micro-organism build-up, and thus ensure continuous
purified water and ice supply for you and your family.
Replacement water filters are available from Electrolux
Home Products Spare Parts Centres and can be posted
to you for your convenience (refer to back page for
contact details).
If the appliance is not connected to a water supply
ensure that the ice maker is switched OFF (refer to STEP 1
overleaf). If you don’t do this a loud buzzing noise will be
heard intermittently.
This refrigerator is designed to be installed by a
qualified/licensed tradesman. Please provide them
with these instructions.
Your warranty may be voided by an incorrect installation
Water Supply and Plumbing
A drinkable water supply to suit a ½” tap fitting is required
adjacent to the refrigerator. It is recommended that a licensed
plumber install a new water supply outlet nearer to the
appliance should the tubing supplied not be long enough.
It is not recommended that the tubing be extended as this
could adversely affect the flow of water to the ice maker or
water dispenser.
The water dispenser and automatic ice maker require a
drinkable water supply with a pressure range of between
206kPa and 689kPa (30PSI and 100PSI). If the water
supply pressure is below 206kPa (30PSI) then a separate
pump will need to be installed. If the water supply pressure
exceeds 689kPa (100PSI) a pressure limiting valve must
be fitted in the water supply line. It is recommended that a
Noise Reduction Valve also be fitted in the water supply line.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WATER FILTER KIT
Reconnect the power.
Move the refrigerator back into place being careful not to
kink or split the tubing.
Using a large container run the water dispenser to clear air
from lines. This may take a few minutes. Purge and dispense
a minimum of 2 litres of water. Initial water may be black
in colour. This is residual carbon dust from the filter and is
non-toxic. If the water is slow to shut off or the dispenser is
dripping, air may still be in the lines. Either purge more water
through the system to remove this air or allow some time for
the air to be removed over subsequent dispensing.
Connect remaining tube length to filter OUTLET.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WATER FILTER KIT
Date replaced Next replacement due
Ensure that taps are turned off when replacing and fitting filters. Remember to turn the taps back on when filter
fitting is complete.
Ensure that the water pressure has been checked prior to installation as high or low water pressure can cause
problems with the Ice & Water dispenser. Water pressure problems can be easily rectified by your qualified installer.
Always fit filter as per manufacturer’s instructions, paying special attention to water flow direction.
If you need to replace water tube, only use approved water quality piping that meets the pressure requirements.
Do not allow the water tubing to become kinked or trapped under the refrigerator when moving the refrigerator
back into position.
Make sure your refrigerator is level to avoid uneven ice cubes.
After installation, run the water dispenser for a few minutes to ensure that all air bubbles have been purged from
the tubing. Dripping may occur if air bubbles remain in the tube.
Replace filter at suggested intervals to avoid water/ice reduction and irregularities in taste.
Remove and clean ice bin once a month, discarding unused ice cubes. This will ensure fresh, clean ice and
smooth operation of your ice maker.
Clean and empty the dispenser drip tray regularly to avoid overflow.
As the water/ice cut off is not instant, leave glass under dispenser briefly until water or ice has stopped flowing
to avoid spills.
Always place ice in glass before filling with water to avoid splashing.
