Please follow the installation steps below to ensure your appliance operates correctly.
1. Power
The appliance must be installed so the plug is accessible.
To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your refrigerator
to its own power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use
extension cords and double adaptors, as the combined weight of both power cords can
pull the double adaptor from a wall outlet socket.
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.
It is essential that the appliance is properly grounded (earthed).
2. Location
Your refrigerator should not be located in direct sunlight or next to any heat generating
appliance such as a cooktop, oven or dishwasher.
3. Ice & Water and Automatic Ice models
Your Ice & Water and Automatic Ice refrigerator must be installed by an authorized
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.
