The RF170W and RF170A are part of Fisher & Paykel's 70cm series. Both models feature a capacious 491-liter total capacity, making them ideal for family use. Their ActiveSmartTM technology ensures that the refrigerator maintains optimal temperature due to smart sensors that adapt to everyday usage patterns.
