Water filter

Contact an authorised plumber if you want to install a water filter in the water system.

A water filter is not supplied with the product. If you wish to use the internal water filter fitting in the product, the filter is an extra accessory that you must purchase (contact your local Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorised Service Centre Dealer or Customer Care Centre for more details). The dispenser feature and ice maker can be used without a water filter. If you do not want to use the internal water filter fitting, the blue bypass cap must remain fitted at all times.

If you choose to install a water filter, this will need changing approximately every 12 months. There is a water filter replacement indicator icon on the control panel which appears when the filter needs replacing (see page 29).

WARNING!

Poisoning Hazard

To avoid serious illness or death, do not use the refrigerator where water is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after use of filter.

Failure to do so can result in death or injury to persons.

If you want to use the internal water filter fitting in the refrigerator, follow the instructions below.

Important!

After installing a new water filter, always dispense water for two minutes on dispensing models before removing the filter for any reason. Air trapped in system may cause water and cartridge to eject. Always use caution when removing the filter.

The bypass cap does not filter water when fitted. Be sure to have replacement cartridge available when filter change is required. If water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter ­cartridge.

If the water system has not been used for several months, or water/ice has an unpleasant taste or odour, flush ­system by dispensing water for two to three minutes or clean out ice bin. If unpleasant taste or odour persists, change filter cartridge.
