■■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, the Ice & Water features may not function in some circumstances.
■■The water connection to your Ice & Water refrigerator must be installed by an authorized plumber or authorized Fisher & Paykel service person.
■■The water connection instructions below are intended only for the professional installer.
■■The new tubings supplied with the refrigerator are to be used, old tubings from old Ice & Water connections should not be used.
