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.

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:
1
Ensure that refrigerator is not plugged into a power supply.
2
Remove compartment cover from the rear if present.
3
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.
4
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.
5
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.
6
Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV
to the water connection point.
7
Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.
8
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.
9
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.
10
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.
11
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.

6 months). Remove double sided foam backing and attach filter to the
desired position as located in step 11 (refer to previous page).
13
Run the ¼” (6 mm) tubing to back of the fridge ensuring there is enough
tubing to pull out the refrigerator for service.
14
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.
15
Pull gently on tubing to ensure it is locked in as shown in Diagram 8.

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.
