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.
Food Safety
z
Regularly clean surfaces that come into contact with food.
z
Ensure any raw meat or fish is stored in sealed containers to prevent
cross-contamination.
z
Immediately clean any drips or spills on surfaces.
z
If the appliance will be left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and
leave the door open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.
z
Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature
in the compartments of the appliance.
Storing food and drinks
z
Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in
this appliance.
z
Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator as they may explode.
z
Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may
cause the container to explode.
z
Never freeze carbonated drinks. They may explode.
z
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
z
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:
z
Ice crystals still visible — food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter
period than recommended.
z
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.
z
Thawed and warmer than 5°C — discard all food.
Water filter
z
The water filter cartridge needs to be changed when the replacement indicator icon
illuminates. This will happen every 6 months.
z
If the water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge. Failure
to replace the disposable filter at recommended intervals may lead to reduced filter
performance and failure of the filter, causing property damage from water leakage
or flooding.
z
In cases of excessively reduced filter life — we recommend that you consult a local
plumber or your water supplier for advice on suitable filtration requirements for the
water supplied to your home.
z
Filter replacement is the consumer’s responsibility and will not be covered by the
warranty except in the case of faulty parts or materials within the filter cartridge.
