 Once your ice maker is in operation, discard the first 24hours of ice harvest. This will
flush away any impurities in the water line and ensure that you get the best quality ice.
We recommend that you also do this after vacations or extended periods of not using ice.
 We recommend that you turn the ice maker off if:
– The water supply is going to be off for several hours,
– The ice storage bin is to be removed for a period of time,
– You are going on holiday/vacation.

USING YOUR ICE MAKER
Information about your automatic ice maker
 Your product comes with an ice storage bin located inside the top freezer bin, and a
hygienic scoop for ice. This scoop provides hygienic access to clean, clear ice cubes.
 Your automatic ice maker will produce approximately eight cubes of ice every
3–4hours, depending on the freezer compartment temperature and the number of
door openings.
 The ice cube tray will fill with filtered water.
 When cubes are frozen, they will be dispensed from the ice tray and into the ice storage
bin below.
 Ice making will continue until the storage bin is full, and only resume once you start to
use the stored ice.
 When the ‘Ice Boost’ function is activated, ice production will increase up to 30%* from
standard ice making. This function automatically deactivates after24 hours.
 If large amounts of ice are required, remove the ice storage bin and allow ice to fill the
top freezer bin.
 For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with the ice scoop.
 If ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, will shrink and may
stick together. Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash in lukewarm water. Dry
thoroughly and place back into the correct position.
IMPORTANT!
 Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ice maker ejector mechanism, and do not
place your fingers on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is
inoperation.
 Do not use ice cubes that may have become discolored, usually with a green-
blue color. If such discoloration is noted, discard the ice cubes and contact your
Fisher&Paykel Authorized Service Agent.
 Ensure the ice maker is connected to the filter cartridge and to a potable water
supplyonly.
 Installation of the water connection to the ice maker must be completed by a qualified
service technician or a qualified plumber.
