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
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

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
CAUTION
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
The water dispenser and automatic ice maker require a
drinkable water supply with a pressure range of between
206kPa and 689kPa (30PSI and 100PSI) If the water
supply pressure is below 206kPa (30PSI) then a separate
pump will need to be installed
It is recommended that a Noise Reduction Valve also
be fitted in the water supply line This will reduce water
hammer and its effects from quick action house hold taps
and fast acting valves on appliances The refrigerator
water valve is pre-fitted with a push-fit connector for
inserting the water tube 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 of the water supply
tap, in a vertical orientation 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)
WARNING
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
Never install the water filter in an area of direct sunlight
