Important!
It is imperative the pressure reducing valve (PRV) is fitted prior to the filter. This valve ensures the
■ ■
water will not flow back into the mains from the refrigerator water system. If the PRV is not fitted
to the connection line, the Ice & Water features may not function in some circumstances.
The water connection to your Ice & Water refrigerator must be installed by an authorized
■ ■
plumber or authorized Fisher & Paykel service person.
The water connection instructions below are intended only for the professional installer.
■ ■
The new tubings supplied with the refrigerator are to be used, old tubings from old Ice & Water
■ ■
connections should not be used.

■ ■
adequate disinfection before or after the system.
