INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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

Before installation

Power

Install your appliance where the plug is easily accessible.

Connect your refrigerator to a separate power point. Avoid sharing the power point with 
other appliances. Do not use extension cords and double adaptors as the combined 
weight of two power cords can pull the double adaptor from the power outlet. 

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.

Ensure your appliance is properly grounded (earthed).

Connect the appliance to the electrical supply

 

(115V 60Hz) with the fitted plug and lead.

Connections to the mains supply should be in accordance with local regulations.

Location

Do not place your refrigerator in direct sunlight.

Ice & Water and Automatic Ice

Your Ice & Water and Automatic Ice refrigerator must be installed by a qualified plumber 
or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician as incorrect plumbing can 
lead to water leaks.

Fisher & Paykel Appliances does not accept responsibility for damage (including water 
damage) caused by faulty installation or plumbing.
