Water filter
IMPORTANT!
 The water connection to your ice & water refrigerator must be installed by
aqualified plumber or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician
and comply with all state and local laws.
 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.
 To avoid serious illness or death, only connect your water filter to safe
drinkingwater.
 The water filter cartridge needs to be changed when the replacement indicator
icon illuminates. This will happen every 6 months.
 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.
 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.
 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.
 If the water has not created ice for some time or ice has an unpleasant taste
or odor dispose of ice and refer to the flushing instructions in this book.
Ifunpleasant taste or odor persists, you may wish to fit a new filter cartridge.
 Your water filtration system can withstand up to 120psi (827kPa) of water
pressure. Ensure the supplied pressure-reducing valve is installed before
installing the water filtration system. DO NOT install if water pressure exceeds
120psi (827kPa).
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage
orflooding:
 DO NOT install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above
100°F(38°C) or drop below 33°F(0.6°C).
 DO NOT install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water
temperature of this filter system is 100°F(38°C).
 DO NOT install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer
conditions exist, you must install a water hammer arrester.
