Introduction
Important!
It is important that this User Guide should be retained with your Ice & Water refrigerator for
future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, please ensure
that the User Guide is left with the appliance. This will ensure that the new owner can familiarize
themselves with the information and warnings contained within the Guide.

WARNING!
Electric Shock Hazard
Read and follow the SAFETY AND WARNINGS outlined in this User Guide
before operating this appliance.
Failure to do so can result in death, electric shock, fire or injury to persons.
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 children or infirmed persons without supervision. This
is especially important when using the freezer drawer compartment. 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 socket.
Do not plug in any other appliance at the same power point outlet socket as your refrigerator or
freezer is using. Do not use extension cords or double adapters with these products.
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.
Safety and warnings
EN

4Safety and warnings
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 interior lightbulb.
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, eg. 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.
Important!
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 refrigerator are to be used, old tubings from old Ice & Water
connections 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 130 psi (900 kPa) or below 22 psi (150 kPa).
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 the refrigerator.
AVOID contamination of pipes during installation.
DO NOT use copper tubing. The plastic tubing supplied should always be used.

6Installation instructions
Installation instructions:
1
Ensure that refrigerator is not plugged into a power supply.
2
Locate a cold water supply/feed only suitable for a water
connection. Tee & tap fitting is not supplied. If you can’t find
the connection faucet, contact an authorised plumber in
your state or town to fit your water connection.
3
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.
4
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.
5
Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV
to the water connection point.
6
Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.
7
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.
8
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.
9
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 L) of water through. Once
complete, turn isolating faucet off.
10
Locate desired position for water filter noting carefully the
following points:
It is recommended to fit the water 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
a 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 water filter to refrigerator.

Installation instructions
11
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 10 (refer to previous page).
12
Run the ¼” (6 mm) tubing to back of the refrigerator ensuring there is enough
tubing to pull out the refrigerator for service.
13
Remove compressor compartment cover by removing screw at the top of
each side of the cover as shown in Diagram 6. Lift and tilt the compressor
compartment cover to remove as shown in Diagram 7.
14
Connect tubing into the water (solenoid) valve located on the right hand side of
the unit (compressor) compartment as shown in Diagram 8. Beware of hot pipes.
15
Pull gently on tubing to ensure it is locked in as shown in Diagram 9.
16
Place compressor compartment cover back into position, run the ¼” (6 mm)
tubing through the space provided at the top right hand side of the
compressor compartment cover in an upward direction and rescrew the
compressor compartment cover. As shown in Diagram 10.
17
The completed installation should look like Diagram 12 on page 8.
18
Turn isolating faucet on and check that all connections are dry and free of drips. If not, please
alert the plumber.
19
Coil water line tubing behind the refrigerator. Push your refrigerator into place being careful not
to kink or squash the water line running into the water (solenoid) valve.
20
Read pages 9 – 14 carefully, and then turn refrigerator on.
21
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.

22
Run a further 3 qt (3 L) through the system, stopping intermittently to ensure the reservoir is
flushed out. Failure to do this will result in excessive dripping from your dispenser.
23
Press until the Ice menu is highlighted then press to turn on the ice maker. Press
together to force a cycle. The ice tray will flip. Force another cycle. The ice tray will flip and spill
the water into the ice bin. Empty water and replace bin.

You are now ready to enjoy chilled water and ice dispensing from your Active Smart™ refrigerator.
Please note that once installation is complete a few drips may appear out of the dispenser over
the next few days as the remaining trapped air is cleared.
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, as shown in Diagram 11.
