Safety and warnings

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.

Warning

When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions including the following:

Danger



This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.



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 Authorized 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 instruction before

it is used.



Never unplug your refrigerator by pulling on the power cord.



Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet.



Do not plug in any other appliance at its power point or use extension cords or double adapters.



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

Authorized Service Center because special purpose tools are required.



When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the

power cord.



Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or replacing the lightbulb.

Safety and warnings

Important!

Your refrigerator is designed to operate for many years without the need for service checks.

However, if your refrigerator is malfunctioning, have it attended to by your

Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorized Service Center as soon as possible. All electrical repairs

must be carried out by an adequately trained service technician or qualified electrician.

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 e.g. 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 41°F/5°C – discard all food.



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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Please follow the steps for installation to ensure your appliance operates correctly.

1. Power



The appliance must be installed so the plug is accessible.



To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your refrigerator or freezer

to its own power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use extension

cords and double adaptors, as the combined weight of both power cords can pull the double

adaptor from a wall outlet socket.



For power requirements, refer to the information on the serial plate located at the front bottom

right-hand side of the refrigerator when the door is open.



It is essential that the appliance be properly grounded (earthed).

2. Location



Your refrigerator or freezer should not be located in direct sunlight or next to any heat

generating appliance such as a range or dishwasher.

Installation instructions

3. Ventilation and installation



To ensure adequate ventilation for your

refrigerator or freezer see recommended

cabinetry dimensions below.

4. Installation

Your Fisher & Paykel Active Smart™ refrigerator is fitted with

front and rear rollers, designed for moving the product in

the forwards and backwards direction.

Avoid moving the product in a sideways direction as this

may damage the rollers or the floor covering/surface.

Your refrigerator will arrive with the front feet wound up

making moving the product into its final location a simple

task.

Roll the refrigerator into its final position making sure there

is the correct air gap between the product and surrounding

cabinetry. See minimum clearance in cabinetry dimensions

table (refer to page 5).

5. What to do if your product is unstable

Gently push the refrigerator back until the rear rollers

contact the floor.



Measure the gap under the front foot, which has come

off the floor.



Obtain some solid packing material (hardwood,

plastic, etc) which fits firmly into the gap under the foot.

Note: do not use metallic materials that may corrode,

stain and/or damage floor coverings.

Wind both front feet up and roll the product out

of position.



Place the packing material in the location diagonally

opposite the front roller that lifts off the floor.



Make sure the packing material stays in place when the

product is pushed back into position.



Ideally, the packing material is large enough to rest

against the back wall so as to prevent it moving when

the cabinet is pushed into position.

and repeat

steps

and

Before placing food in the fresh food or freezer compartments



Remove all packaging. Ensure that all transit clips are removed from the refrigerator. These are

small rubber stops located at the back of the shelves.



Allow the refrigerator and freezer to run empty for 2 – 3 hours to allow each compartment to

cool to the appropriate temperature.



Clean the inside of the appliance with warm water and a little liquid detergent to remove

manufacturing and transportation dust.



The appliance may have an odor on its initial operation, but this will go when the refrigerator

and freezer have cooled sufficiently.

Energy efficiency

For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:



Ensure your refrigerator has adequate ventilation as recommended in the installation

instructions.



Do not cover your appliances with any material that will prevent air from flowing around the

cabinet sides.



Allow good clearances in front of the air ducts within the cabinet for maximum cold

air distribution.



Cool hot foods down before placing them in the appliance.



Do not overfill the compartments.



Keep door openings to a minimum.



Select a temperature setting that isn’t too cold.



Check your door seals for leaks.

Moving or storing your refrigerator

If your refrigerator or freezer is turned off for any reason, wait 10 minutes before turning it back

on. This will allow the refrigeration system pressures to equalise before restarting.

Moving your refrigerator



Turn off the appliance and unplug from the power point. Remove all food.



Turn the adjustable feet to the right as far as they will turn (see page 6).



Ease the refrigerator out of its position. Tuck the power cord away and tape the doors closed.

Tape the shelves in place. If the cabinet needs to be placed at an angle or laid down, carefully lay

it on its side (the right hand side when viewed from the front).



Relocate and install. If the appliance has been left on its side for any length of time, leave it

standing upright for at least 10 minutes before turning on.

Storing your refrigerator or freezer



When storing your cleaned appliance, leave the door(s) open. This allows air to circulate and

prevents the build up of bacteria and moulds.



Before using again, clean well using a mixture of warm water and baking soda (add 1 teaspoon

of baking soda to each 1 pint (500 ml) of water). Rinse with clean water.

Vacation time



We recommend you leave your refrigerator or freezer operating while you are on vacation.
