Thank you for buying a Fisher & Paykel Active Smart™ refrigerator with automatic ice dispensing

and chilled water through the door.

At Fisher & Paykel we are very proud of this refrigerator. We feel we have achieved water

dispensing through the door without compromising the storage space or access in the fridge.

During our testing we have enjoyed the health benefits of having cool filtered water so

accessible, while minimising the number of door openings.

Thousands of hours of food care research and 70 years of refrigeration experience has been

programmed into your refrigerator to give you the best possible performance.

We hope you enjoy your new refrigerator.

Before you start using your Ice & Water refrigerator

Check refrigerator is switched on and has cooled for at least 2 hours (refer to page 15 – The

temperature of your refrigerator and freezer) before use.

Check that the water filter has been connected and turned on.

Turn on ice maker.

At first use allow approximately 1 minute from when the dispensing pad is pushed until water

is dispensed. This will allow the tank to fill.

Run through and discard the first 3 qt or 3 L of water from the dispenser (refer to page 10

– First use).

Discard the first bin of ice (refer to page 11 – First use).

You are now ready to enjoy ice and water from your Active Smart™ refrigerator.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons read the IMPORTANT SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS before operating this appliance.

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this User Guide.

Important safety precautions

Warning

When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions including the following:

Danger

This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:

– Take off the doors

– Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Disposal

Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards. The

refrigerant gas must be safely removed and for the safety of young children, remove doors.

Your Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorised Service Center will be able to give advice on

environmentally friendly methods of disposing of your old refrigerator or freezer.

Electrical

This appliance must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before

it is used.

Never unplug your refrigerator or freezer by pulling on the power cord.

Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.

Do not plug in any other appliance at the same power point as your refrigerator or freezer or use

extension cords or double adapters.

Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise

damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion along its length or at either the plug

or appliance end.

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel Appliances

Authorised Service Center because special purpose tools are required.

When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power

cord.

Unplug your refrigerator or freezer before cleaning or replacing the lightbulb.

Safety and warnings

Storing food and drinks

Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator or freezer as they may explode.

Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may cause the

container to explode.

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 e.g. frozen ice cubes.

Power failure – food safety

Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. Follow the recommendations below if

you discover food in your freezer has thawed:

1) Ice crystals still visible – food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than

recommended.

2) 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.

3) Thawed but warmer than 38˚F (4˚C). Red meat can be cooked immediately and refrozen but

use as soon as possible. Discard all other frozen foods.

Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat.

Cleaning

Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents which may attack plastic

components of your refrigerator or freezer and cause them to crack. Please refer to the cleaning

care section of this booklet for further advice.

Important!

It is imperative the pressure reducing valve (PRV) is fitted prior to the filter. This valve ensures

the water will not flow back into the mains from the refrigerator water system. If the PRV is not

fitted to the connection line your Ice & Water refrigerator features may not function in some

circumstances.

It is recommended that an authorised plumber in your state or town is used to install the water

connection.

The new tubings supplied with the machine are to be used, old tubings should not be used.

Installation precautions/warning

DO NOT use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without

adequate disinfection before or after the system.

WARNING – connect to potable water supply only.

DO NOT install on line pressure above 900 kPa (130 psi) or below 150 kPa (22 psi).

DO NOT use on hot water supply (100°F [38°C max.]).

DO NOT install near electrical wires or water pipes that will be in the path of drilling when

selecting the location of filter system.

DO NOT mount filter in such a position so that it will be struck by other items, such as

wastebaskets, etc.

DO NOT install the filter in direct sunlight as prolonged exposure to light can weaken plastic

components.

DO NOT install in a location that is susceptible to freezing temperatures as damage to the

housing could occur.

DO NOT screw filter to fridge.

AVOID contamination of pipes during installation.

Installation instructions

Installation instructions:

Ensure that refrigerator is not plugged into a power supply.

Remove compartment cover from the rear if present.

Locate isolation faucet for water connection – cold water

feed only (dishwasher or sink mixer faucets) – if you can’t

find the connection faucet, contact an authorised plumber

in your state or town to fit your water connection.

Connect the 8” (200 mm) blue tubing to the outlet of the

PRV (blue collet) and the inlet connection of the water filter

cartridge as shown in Diagram 1. Gently pull on both ends

to ensure it is locked.

Connect the white ¼” (6 mm) tubing to the outlet of the

water filter cartridge as shown in Diagram 2. Gently pull to

ensure it is locked.

Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV

to the water connection point.

Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.

Connect the tubing to the faucet connection and the base

of the PRV (white collet) and then to the faucet as shown

in Diagram 3. Please note that the faucet connection

supplied should fit most installation situations. If your

faucet requires a different fitting, please contact an

authorised plumber in your state or town to purchase

the correct fitting.

Connect one locking key to each side of the water

filter cartridge in between the cartridge and the

locking collet as shown in Diagram 4.

To flush the water filter and check for leaks, aim the

end of the tubing into a bucket, turn isolating faucet

on and run at least 3 qt (3 liters) of water through. Once

complete, turn isolating faucet off.

Locate desired position for water filter noting carefully the

following points:

It is recommended to fit the filter in a vertical

orientation with the water filter head at the top. This will

minimize water leakage when replacing cartridge.

Ensure the filter is in a convenient location to access

every 6 months for replacement. We suggest that

this location is beside the water filter supply faucet in

the cupboard beside the refrigerator.

A minimum clearance of 2 ½” (64 mm) from the

bottom of the filter cartridge is required to perform

cartridge removal.

Do not screw filter to fridge.

6Installation instructions

Attach double sided foam to the back of the water filter head as shown

in Diagram 5. Write the date to be replaced on the filter (date installed +

6 months). Remove double sided foam backing and attach filter to the

desired position as located in step 11 (refer to previous page).

Run the ¼” (6 mm) tubing to back of the fridge ensuring there is enough

tubing to pull out the refrigerator for service.

Connect tubing into the water (solenoid) valve located on the right hand

side of the unit (compressor) compartment as shown in Diagram 7. Beware

of hot pipes.

Pull gently on tubing to ensure it is locked in as shown in Diagram 8.

Replace compressor cover if present.

The completed installation should look like Diagram 9 on page 7.

Diagram 8

Turn isolating faucet on and check that all connections are dry and free of drips.

Coil water line tubing behind the fridge. Push your refrigerator into place being careful not to

kink or squash the water line running into the water (solenoid) valve.

Turn on refrigerator.

The first time you require water out of the dispenser, there will be a delay while the water

reservoir fills up. As this is happening, the symbol will flash. Once the reservoir is full, this

symbol will stop flashing.

Run a further 3 qt (3 liters) through the system to ensure the reservoir is flushed out.

You are now ready to enjoy chilled water and ice dispensing from your Active Smart™ refrigerator.

Installation instructions

Important!

All connections must be checked for leaks.

If unsure of connection process and/or leaks then contact your local plumber to install and check

the system for you.

Ensure white ¼” (6 mm) tubing is routed away from sharp objects, sharp corners (beware of

kinking tube as this will stop water flow), clear of the refrigerator unit compartment and not in a

location where it can be squashed.

Ensure all push-fit connections are firmly pushed into place. The tube should push in ¾” (20 mm)

before reaching the stop.

If tubing is removed at any point, re-cut the end and re-insert. Tubing must be fully inserted to

avoid leaks.

To remove tube from connection points, turn off the isolating faucet, push in the collet and

gently pull tubing at the same time.
