children may not easily climb inside.
z
Consult your local energy authority or local codes as to the best way to dispose ofyour
old appliance.
Water connection
z
The water connection to your Ice & Water refrigerator must be installed by an
authorised plumber or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician and
comply with all state and local laws.
z
Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes. Check
with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow their
guidelines as you install the water filtration system.
z
If the water tank has not been used for an extended period of time, or has developed
an unpleasant taste or odour, flush the water system. If the problem persists, replace
the water filter cartridge and refer to the flushing instructions detailed in section
‘Flushing through the water dispenser.
z
To avoid serious illness or death, only connect your water filter to safe drinking water.
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.
z
If the water has not created ice for some time or ice has an unpleasant taste or odour
dispose of ice and refer to ‘Automatic ice maker (Freezer only)’ for flushing instructions.
If unpleasant taste or odour persists, you may wish to fit a new filter cartridge.
z
Use new tubing supplied with the refrigerator. DO NOT reuse old tubing from old water
and ice connections.
z
Your water filtration system can withstand up to 120psi (827kPa) of water pressure.
z
Ensure the supplied pressure limiting valve is installed before installing the water
filtration system. DO NOT install if water pressure exceeds 120psi (827kPa).
z
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage or flooding:
z
DO NOT install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 100°F
(38°C) or drop below 33°F (0.6°C).
z
DO NOT install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of
this filter system is 100°F (38°C).
z
DO NOT install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions
exist, you must install a water hammer arrester.

time dependent on the food mode in use. Offered on ‘Soft Freeze’ and ‘Freezer’ modes
(Soft Freeze - 12 hours, Freezer - 12 hours).
We recommend using ‘Max Cool’ or ‘Fast Freeze’ when you are adding food items toyour
appliance, such as after grocery shopping. This feature will ensure the food ischilled/frozen
within the shortest period of time, locking in the freshness andextending the shelf life of
your food.
Bottle Chill
This feature allows you to rapidly chill your beverages in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Depending on the size of your beverage, the default time may not be enough to chill
your beverage. If your beverage is notcold enough after the set time, return it to the
compartment and reset the ‘Bottle Chill’ feature.
Ice*
Turns on your automatic ice. This feature is only available in the lower compartment.
Ice Boost*
Increases ice production by up to 30%, and deactivates automatically after 24hours.
* This feature is not available if the compartment is set to ‘Soft Freeze’. If ice making is turned on and the foodmode is
changed to ‘Soft Freeze’ any ice that is already in the ice bin may melt and form clumps.
To avoid this either remove the ice or use a different compartment for ‘Soft Freeze’.

For best food care
z
Store only high-quality, fresh food in your appliance.
z
Store perishable foods in the appliance immediately after purchase. Storingatroom
temperature increases the rate of deterioration and can allow harmfulmicrobialgrowth.
z
Foods such as meat, poultry and seafood should be well wrapped or sealed in
suitablepackaging to prevent dehydration, color deterioration, loss of flavor, and transfer
ofodor.
Note: We recommend storing these foods on the bottom shelf of your appliance
orinone of the bins to prevent potential spills and cross-contamination with
otherfoods.
z
Ensure hot foods and beverages are cooled sufficiently before placing them into
theappliance. Hot items may cause other foods to warm to unsafe temperatures.
Itmayalso cause sealed items to sweat/condensate—which is undesirable.
z
Beverages are best stored standing upright in the door shelves or on the bottle
racksprovided.
z
Ensure raw and cooked foods are stored separately to avoid cross-contamination.
z
Consume food items within the recommended storage times. Discard foods that
showsign of spoilage.
z
Keep door openings to a minimum to maintain optimum storage temperatures inside
your appliance.
z
We recommend using MAX COOL or FAST FREEZE when you are adding food items toyour
appliance, such as after grocery shopping. This feature will ensure the food ischilled/
frozen within the shortest period of time, locking in the freshness andextending the shelf
life of your food.
z
Storing at temperatures other than the recommended settings may impact the storage
life.
z
For common foodstuffs, factory default setting provides the optimum setting for
foodcare.
Items stored in your refrigerator
z
Dairy items such as butter and cheeses should be stored in the covered door shelf
tominimize any transfer of odor or odor absorption from other foods.
z
Eggs should be stored in their carton to avoid absorption of strong odors through
theirporous shell structure.
Items stored in your freezer
We recommended cooling carbonated beverages only when the
BOTTLE CHILL function
isactive.
Note: Do not store carbonated drinks without this function in the freezer.
Failure toremove beverages could lead to freezing liquid and the likelihood ofbottle/
canexplosion.
z
Ensure air is removed from packaging to avoid large formation of ice crystals and
prevent freezer burn.
z
To maintain freshness and quality, we recommend defrosting foods in the refrigerator.
Ensure partially or fully defrosted foods are never re-frozen—cook immediately.

popping
This may occur when the automatic defrost function is operating.
Running water This is the liquid refrigerant in the system and can be heard
as a boiling or gurgling noise.
Hissing sound
after closing the
freezer door
This is due to the pressure difference between the warm air that has entered the
cabinet and suddenly cooled, and the outside airpressure.
Humming This is the compressor running and is quite normal.
Gasket Normally occur over time due to a build up of dirt and/or grime. See ‘Exterior
cleaning’ section.
