Safety and warnings
Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion along its length or at either the plug
or appliance end.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by your Fisher & Paykel Appliances
Authorised Service Centre because special purpose tools are required.
When moving your appliance back against the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the
power cord.
Unplug your refrigerator before cleaning it or replacing the interior light bulb.
Storing food and drinks
Never store volatile or flammable materials in your refrigerator 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
and refreeze. Vegetables – discard as they usually go limp and soggy.
3) Thawed and warmer than 5˚C – discard all foods.
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 and cause them to crack. Please refer to the Care and cleaning
section of this booklet for further advice.
