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
trained and supported service technician because special purpose tools are required.

the power cord.

the appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.

Food safety

Regularly clean accessible draining systems and surfaces that come in
contact with food.

Ensure any raw meat or fish is stored in sealed containers to prevent
cross-contamination.

Storing food and drinks/wine

Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant
in this appliance.

Servicing
z
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 trained and supported service technician as soon as possible. All
electrical repairs must be carried out by an adequately trained service technician or
qualified electrician.
z
The LED light cannot be serviced by the user. Contact your Fisher & Paykel Dealer or
Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.

If you suspect that the product is not getting cold — items such as ice cream are
melting— remove all perishable food and store in another appliance or cooler to prevent
spoilage. Immediately call for a service technician.
Cleaning
z
Use mild dish-washing liquid with warm water and a lint-free cloth to clean the product.

Avoid using anti-bacterial cleaning products on either the interior or exterior
of the cabinet as they may cause rusting of metal components and cracking of
plastic components.
