If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel Appliances
■ ■
Authorized Service Center because special purpose tools are required.
When moving your appliance away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
■ ■
power cord.
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning or replacing the interior lightbulb.

Important!
Your refrigerator is designed to operate for many years without the need for service checks.
However, if your refrigerator is malfunctioning, have it attended to by your Fisher & Paykel
Appliances Authorized Service Center as soon as possible. All electrical repairs must be carried
out by an adequately trained service technician or qualified electrician.
Storing food and drinks
Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator or freezer as they may explode.
■ ■
Never freeze liquids in glass containers. Liquid expands during freezing, which may cause the
■ ■
container to explode.
Never freeze carbonated drinks. They may explode.
■ ■
Do not consume food if it is too cold. Food removed from the freezer compartment may be cold
■ ■
enough to cause damage when brought into contact with bare skin, eg. frozen ice cubes.
Power failure – food safety
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. Follow the recommendations below if
■ ■
you discover food in your freezer has thawed:
1) Ice crystals still visible – food may be refrozen but should be stored for a shorter period than
recommended.
2) Thawed but refrigerator cold – refreezing generally not recommended. Fruits and some
cooked food can be refrozen but use as soon as possible. Meat, fish, poultry – use immediately
or cook then refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp and soggy.
3) Thawed and warmer than 41°F (5°C). Discard all food.
Do not refreeze frozen foods that have thawed completely. The food may be dangerous to eat.
■ ■
Important!
Cleaning
Many commercially available cleaning products contain solvents which may attack plastic
■ ■
components of your refrigerator or freezer and cause them to crack. Please refer to the cleaning
care section of this booklet for further advice.
