  The CoolDrawer™ MUST be installed to allow for future removal from the enclosure if service is required. 

Do not seal the CoolDrawer™ into the cabinetry with silicone or glue. Doing so will make future servicing 
difficult. Fisher & Paykel will not be liable for any costs associated with removing or replacing a sealed-in 
product, nor for repairing any damage that may be incurred by doing this.  

  Care should be taken when the appliance is installed or removed to reduce the likelihood of damage to the 

power supply cord.

  Failure to install the CoolDrawer™ correctly will invalidate any warranty or liability claims.

  If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced. Parts are available from your Authorised 

Fisher & Paykel dealer.

To calculate D complete the following equation:

D = C + B - A - E

i.e. For the F&P prefinished panel:
18 3/4” (476 mm)  =  25 3/8” (644 mm) + 11/16” (18 mm) - 1/16” (2 mm) - 7 1/4” (184 mm)

Height of the False Panel

  Determine the height of the false panel according to your individual kitchen cabinetry 

requirements maintaining a 

3/16
