tHE ExtERNAL wAtER fiLtER Kit

An external water filter and connection kit has been
supplied for use with your Ice & Water refrigerator.
The external filter design allows more space within the
refrigerator and provides double the life of previous filters
reducing the cost of replacement.
Contents of the kit are:
The filter is designed to significantly reduce chlorine, taste,
odour, heavy metals, turbidity (cloudiness) and scale build
up. The included plastic water tube allows quick connection
to the filter and is designed for high durability and kink
resistance.
This filter is designed only to be used with a potable
water supply. It should not be used on water that is micro
biologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality. The
filter should be replaced every 12 months. The service life
of the filter may be reduced in water supplies that contain
an excess of particles or other impurities. Reduced flow
rate is an indication that a new filter is required. Failure to
replace the filter when required can affect the function of
the ice maker. Service calls caused by a failure to replace
the filter are not covered by warranty.
The water connection to your ice and water product can be
self-installed. It is recommended that you seek advice from
a licensed plumber (if necessary) before commencing the
installation.
Your warranty may be voided by an incorrect installation

Water Supply and Plumbing
A drinkable water supply to suit a ½" tap fitting is required
adjacent to the refrigerator. It is recommended that a
licensed plumber install a new water supply outlet nearer
to the appliance should the tubing supplied not be long
enough. It is not recommended that the tubing be extended
as this could adversely affect the flow of water to the ice
maker or water dispenser. This will reduce water hammer
and its effects from quick action household taps and fast
acting valves on appliances.
Where the tap connection is other than 1/2", adapters
can be purchased from plumbing supply stores or good
hardware stores.
Water Filter
Locate the water filter within 1 metre from the water supply
tap, in a vertical position where possible. The filter will need
to be replaced every 12 months to prevent excess filtered
micro-organism build-up, and thus ensure continuous purified
water and ice supply for you and your family. Replacement
water filters are available from Electrolux Home Products
Spare Parts Centres and can be posted to you for your
convenience (refer to back page for contact details).
If the appliance is not connected to a water supply ensure
that the ice maker is switched off (refer to STEP 1 overleaf).
If you don't do this a loud buzzing noise will be heard
intermittently.
The new hose-sets supplied with the appliance must be
used and old hose-sets should not be reused. Do not use
with water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection.
Never connect the appliance to a hot water supply. Never
install the water filter in an area of the wall where there
may be electrical wires and / or water supply pipes.
