Water filter (Ice & Water and Automatic Ice models only)

The water supplied to your refrigerator is filtered to remove impurities through a filter 
located internally at the top right corner of the refrigerator. Replace your filter cartridge 
every 6 months.
There is a replacement indicator icon 

 on the internal control panel (Ice & Water and 

Automatic Ice models) and external display (Ice & Water models only) which will appear 
when the filter needs replacing. The icon will flash, as a reminder, when water is dispensed.
Replacement filter cartridges are available from your Fisher & Paykel dealer, online or 
from a Fisher & Paykel service technician. The details of the replacement filter cartridge 
are labelled on the cartridge. Guidance of how to replace your water filter and reset your 
indicator icon 

 can be found at fisherpaykel.com/water-filter.

Information about your ice maker

Your automatic ice maker will produce approximately eight cubes of ice every 3 – 4 hours, 
depending on the freezer compartment temperature and the number of door openings. 
When the 

ICE BOOST

 function is activated, ice production will increase up to 30% from 

standard ice making.
The ice cube tray will fill with water. When cubes are frozen, they will be ejected from the 
ice tray into the ice storage bin. Ice making will continue until the storage bin is full. Ice 
making will resume once you start to use the stored ice.
Your Ice & Water product comes with a smaller ice bin inside the larger freezer bin. 
Attached to the ice storage bin is the scoop for the ice. This scoop provides hygienic access 
to the ice. If a large amount of ice is required, remove an ice storage bin and allow ice to fall 
into the larger bin. For maximum ice storage, level the stored cubes with the ice scoop.
If ice is not used often, old cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, will shrink and may 
stick together. Empty the ice storage bin periodically and wash in lukewarm water. Dry 
thoroughly and place back into the correct position.

Turn your ice maker off if:

 

z

There is no water supply for several hours.

 

z

You are removing the ice storage bin for a period of time.

 

z

You are going on holiday/vacation.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Using your ice maker (Ice & Water and Automatic Ice models only)

until it detects the bin is full. The more ice you use, the more it makes. 

To turn your ice maker on press   . 
The light above the button will illuminate.
