correct air gap between the product and surrounding cabinetry. See minimum clearance in cabinetry dimensions table (refer to page 7). If required raise the front of the appliance (by turning the adjustable feet clockwise) until it is stable and the doors move towards the closed position on their own, when open. The front levelling foot on the hinge side should take the majority of the weight of the cabinet and the cabinet should be stable, ie the cabinet should not rock or wobble. (Model RF610A only)

Fig.2 Refrigerator feet

C Adjust the front feet down until the refrigerator is leaning backward
with the front approximately 10 mm higher than the back. This will ensure a good door closing action. (Refer to Fig.2).
D Aligning your refrigerator with cabinetry.
Fig.3 Uneven door alignment
Align the sides of the refrigerator with the cabinetry by adjusting the hinge side front foot. Adjust the handle side foot until it touches the floor and takes a small amount of weight. Once the refrigerator is in place and aligned with cupboards/alcove pushgently on the front top and check if the product is rocking or stable.
5. Levelling of refrigerator door (model RF610A only)
For uneven surfaces, front feet can be used to align the 2 doors. If left hand door is too low, then unscrew the left hand foot to lift up the cabinet until the two doors top edges are aligned. If right hand door is higher, then adjust the right hand foot in the same way.
Fig.4 Even door alignment
6. What to do if your product is unstable
Gently push the refrigerator back until the rear rollers contact 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.

Example only

Wind both front feet up and roll the product out ofposition. 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.

Using your water dispenser (Ice & Water models only)

Dispensing pad

Your water dispenser has been designed for one handed operation. Simply push your glass up against the dispenser pad located at the back of the dispenser area. This pad requires only a gentle press to activate. Please remember that pressing very hard against the dispensing pad will not make the dispenser operate faster or produce greater quantities of water.

First use

After installation, on the first use, allow approximately a one minute delay while the dispensing pad is pushed until water is dispensed. This will allow the tank to fill completely. After you fill the tank for the first time, dispense and discard approximately L stopping intermittently to flush the tank out.

Dispensing

To dispense water push the dispensing pad gently, using a glass or container. When you dispense water, a light will appear above the dispensing area, and on the display screen. The water fill icon will also appear. To stop the flow of water, simply pull your glass away from the dispensing pad.
To avoid damage to property or personal injury do not put hands, fingers or objects up the dispenser opening.

This will happen We recommend the water filter cartridge is replaced when the every 6 months. If the water filtration system has been allowed to freeze, replace filter cartridge. The rate of water flow through the water dispenser can slow down as the filter cartridge accumulates any sediment which may be present in the water supplied to your home. This varies depending upon your local water quality, which may require your filter cartridge to be changed more frequently. 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 consumers 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 been dispensed for some time or water has an unpleasant taste or odour, flush system by dispensing 10 L of water. If unpleasant taste or odour persists, you may wish to fit a new filter cartridge.
Using your ice maker (Ice & Water models only)

Ice maker

Your ice maker is designed to automatically dispense ice until it senses that the bin is full. So the more ice you use, the more it makes. It is even clever enough to sense when there is no bin in place to catch the ice.
When you first turn your refrigerator on after installation, the ice maker will be off. button to scroll to the To turn your ice maker on use the screen. Use the or button to turn the ice maker on or off. Shows the ice maker is on. Shows the ice maker is off. together to force a cycle. The ice tray will flip. Force Press another cycle. The ice tray will flip and spill the water into the ice bin. Empty water and replace bin. If the bin is full, or inserted incorrectly the ice maker will not operate. When the bin is inserted correctly the scoop will be on the right hand side of the bin for models E402B, E442B, E522B and the front of the bin for model RF610A (refer to Fig.14 on page 24). If all bins are removed the ice maker will not operate. Once your ice maker is in operation, discard the first bin of ice cubes. This will flush away any impurities in the water line and ensure that you get the best quality ice. We recommend that you also do this after vacations or extended periods of not using ice. We recommend that you turn the ice maker off if: The water supply is to be off for several hours or The ice storage bin is to be removed for a period of time or You are going on holiday/vacation.

Fig.13 Turning ice maker on
Information about your ice maker
Your automatic ice maker will produce approximately eight cubes of ice every hours, dependent on freezer compartment temperature and number of door openings. The ice cube tray will fill with water once the freezer has reached the correct temperature. The first cubes will normally freeze after several hours. When cubes are frozen, they will be ejected from the mould into the ice storage bin. Ice making will continue until the storage bin is full. Ice making will resume when the ice is used. For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with the ice scoop provided. Your Ice & Water product comes with a smaller ice bin inside the larger freezer bin. Attached to this is the scoop for the ice. This scoop provides hygienic access to the ice. If a large amount of ice is required, remove the smaller storage bin and allow ice to fall into the larger bin. If ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, will shrink and may stick together. Empty the ice storage bin periodically, wash in lukewarm water, dry thoroughly and place back in the correct position.

E402B, E442B, E522B

RF610A
Fig.14 Ice storage bin and scoop in correct position
Avoid contact with the moving parts of the ice maker ejector mechanism, and do not place your fingers on the automatic ice making mechanism while the refrigerator is in operation. Do not use ice cubes that may have become discoloured, usually with a green-blue colour. If such discolouration is noted, discard the ice cubes and contact your Fisher & Paykel Appliances Authorised Service Centre. Ensure the ice maker is connected only to a drinkable water supply (and filter if fitted). Installation of the water connection to the ice maker must be completed by a qualified service technician or a qualified plumber (see installation instructions).
Active Smart special features (all models)
Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity control cover
The fruit and vegetable bins feature a unique cover which provides two functions: The humidity cover seals the bins and provides a humid microclimate to extend storage times of fruit and vegetables. The humidity cover prevents condensation, which forms at high humidities, from dripping down onto the fruit and vegetables. The ability to retain high humidity in the fruit and vegetable bins may mean small amounts of water will pool in the bottom of the fruit and vegetable bins. This can be wiped out as required.
Fruit and vegetable bins and humidity slide (where fitted)
Each fruit and vegetable bin has a humidity slide control that can be adjusted to a fruit or vegetable setting depending on what is stored in the bins. If possible try to store fruit and vegetables separately. This will help extend their storage life. If there is a mixture of fruit and vegetables in the bin adjust the position of the control to thecentre. If there is too much water in the bins the control can be adjusted towards the setting with fewer drips (fruit setting). Remember a small amount of water in the bins is beneficial for fruit and vegetable storage.

Fig.18 Halogen light replacement
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 Authorised Service Centre as soon as possible. All electrical repairs must be carried out by an adequately trained service technician or qualified electrician.
Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator (all models)
Exterior Stainless exterior doors (Iridium or EZKleen finishes)
It is important when cleaning the exterior door surface of your refrigerator, to only use liquid dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water and a soft cloth. Dry the door with a clean, lint free cloth. The use of any abrasive or stainless steel cleaners and solvents will damage the door surface.

Other exterior surfaces

Clean all other exterior surfaces with a mix of warm water and detergent and a soft cloth. If necessary, clean the magnetic door gasket and the centre door gaskets with an old toothbrush, warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent.

Water evaporator tray

The water evaporator tray is found above the compressor at the back of the refrigerator. The tray may require infrequent cleaning. Carefully move the refrigerator out from the wall. Switch off the appliance. We do not recommend that you remove the evaporator tray. If cleaning is required, excess water can be soaked up from the evaporator tray using a sponge. Wipe out with warm water and detergent or disinfectant. Reassemble taking care not to over-tighten the fasteners. Switch on the appliance.
Water dispenser pad and interface (Ice & Water models)
We have incorporated a Dispenser and Key Lock function in your refrigerator to make cleaning easier (refer to page 19). This will help you to avoid accidental water dispensing while you clean. Clean the pad and interface panel with a soft damp cloth.
Drip tray (Ice & Water models)
To clean, take the tray out of the dispenser panel and pull the two halves of the tray apart. Clean in warm water with a mild detergent. Dry the tray and clip back together. Re-insert the tray back into the dispenser panel.

Fig.19 Drip tray removal

Interior
It is important to keep the interior of the refrigerator and freezer clean to help prevent food from becoming contaminated during storage. The amount and types of food stored determines how often cleaning should be carried out in the refrigerator (ideally once every 1 to 2 weeks). Remove the shelves from cabinet and door. Wash shelves and storage bins in warm water and detergent; rinse in clean water and dry before replacing. Wipe over the interior surfaces with warm water and detergent or baking soda dissolved in warm water (add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to every 500 ml of water). Rinse with clean water. To help remove old stale refrigerator smells add a few drops of vanilla essence or vinegar to the water before cleaning. Clean exterior surfaces with warm water and detergent. Use a toothbrush for the magnetic door gasket. Do not use harsh, abrasive cloths or cleaners or highly perfumed, strong smelling cleaners or solvents on any part of the refrigerator or freezer.

Fish and seafood

Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of purchase. Until required, refrigerate on a plate loosely covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil. If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to select very fresh fish. Whole fish should be rinsed in cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets in a sealed plastic bag. Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within days.
Precooked foods and leftovers
These should be stored in suitable covered containers so that the food will not dry out. Keep for only days. Reheat leftovers only once and until steaming hot.

Fruit and vegetable bins

Although most fruit and vegetables keep best at low temperatures, take care not to store the following at temperatures of less than 7C for long periods: citrus fruit, tropical fruit, tomatoes, cucumbers. Undesirable changes will occur at low temperatures such as softening of the flesh, browning, accelerated decaying and or loss of flavour. Do not refrigerate avocados (until they are ripe), bananas, mangoes or pepinos. If possible store fruit and vegetables separately, ie fruit in one bin and vegetables in the other. Each fruit and vegetable bin has a humidity control slide that can be adjusted depending on what is stored in the bins. For more information on using the Humidity Control refer to page 25.
Storing food in your freezer (all models)
The use of temperatures of -18C or colder to store food means that the food can be kept for longer periods than when refrigeration temperatures are used. This is because the growth of bacteria, moulds and yeasts are stopped, and chemical and physical reactions are severely restricted at such low temperatures.

Frozen food care

For best results: Choose only high quality foods that freeze well. Store at -18C or colder. Take care to maintain this low storage temperature, eg try to avoid opening the freezer door unnecessarily. If your ice cream is soft you are running your freezer too warm. Leave space at the top of containers, glass jars or plastic bags containing liquids or semi-solid foods. These expand as they freeze. Usually mm head space is recommended. Seal. Ideally, remove all the air from the package after food is frozen. Packages or containers of solid foods should have the air removed from them and be sealed tightly before freezing. Use the Fast Freeze function when freezing fresh food. This helps to speed up the freezing process, giving optimum freezing results. It is recommended that the function is activated approximately 2 hours before required. For more information refer to page 18. Freeze immediately or as quickly as possible. Freeze only small quantities of food at any one time. For best results we recommend that only 1 kg of food be frozen per 25 L of freezer storage volume at any one time. (About 3 kg in small freezers and 4 kg in larger freezers). For faster freezing in Active Smart models, we recommend that fresh food is placed at the top of the freezer compartment close to the air vent. Do not pile frozen food around the fan cover. It can prevent adequate air circulation. Thaw foods preferably in a refrigerator, or using a microwave oven or multifunction oven. Keep a constant turnover of food. Use older items of food first. Do not exceed recommended storage times. Use good quality freezer proof packaging to maintain food quality. If food is only covered in plastic film place inside a freezer-proof plastic bag.

Recommended freezer storage times
These times should not be exceeded. Bacon, casseroles, milk Bread, ice-cream, sausages, pies (meat and fruit), preparedshellfish, oily fish Non oily fish, shellfish, pizza, scones and muffins Ham, cakes, biscuits, beef and lamb chops, poultry pieces Butter, vegetables (blanched), eggs whole and yolks, cookedcrayfish, minced meat (raw), pork (raw) Fruit (dry or in syrup), egg whites, beef (raw), whole chicken,lamb (raw), fruit cakes

M o n t h s

Meat, poultry and game
Do not try to freeze more than 1 kg meat per 25 L of freezer storage volume at any one time. Meat must be frozen quickly in order to maintain its texture. Do not stuff poultry before freezing. Red meat can be cooked from frozen, or from the partly or completely thawed states. Remember to allow extra cooking time if cooking from frozen. Always thaw poultry completely before cooking.
Fish is best frozen commercially. If, however, you do want to freeze fish at home, make sure the fish is very fresh and of high quality. Clean, scale and preferably leave whole. All fish should be wrapped in two layers of packaging as depending on the type of fish, odours and flavours can be readily transferred either to or from it. Seal well. For best results, cook from either the frozen or partly thawed state.

Vegetables

Most vegetables freeze well, although salad vegetables lose their crispness. Other vegetables, eg celery, onion and tomatoes, should only be used in cooked dishes as they soften on freezing. Freeze only high quality, mature, ready-to-eat vegetables. Sort and discard any vegetables that are damaged. It is necessary to blanch most raw vegetables prior to freezing. Blanching involves a short cooking period during which vegetable enzymes are destroyed. If these enzymes are not destroyed they cause undesirable physical and chemical changes during freezer storage. Vegetables can be blanched in boiling water, steam or microwave oven. If using boiling water, boil vegetables for minutes and cool quickly. In general frozen vegetables are best cooked from their frozen state.
Prepared and cooked foods
Most cooked foods can be frozen but it is not recommended to freeze the following: Cooked egg white, custards, cream fillings and milk puddings, gelatin or jelly-like dishes, mayonnaise and similar salad dressings, meringue toppings. These tend to separate on thawing.
Choose high quality, mature, and ready to eat fruit. Preferably select varieties recommended for freezing. Avoid unripe and over-ripe fruit. The way fruit is packed depends on how it is to be used. Fruits packed in syrup are ideal for desserts, whereas fruits packed without sugar are better used for cooking. Most fruits can be stored for months.
