When was this model discontinued?
I don't know that it has been. It should be discontinued if it hasn't been. Especially the stainless steel on the front.
Recently our ice tray has been freezing up in clumps after the ice drops out, We have emptied multiple times, cleaned and dried before replacing. Does anyone know what the reason for this may be?

Have a French door fridge/freezer and the ice maker isn’t working properly. The water doesn’t seem to completely freeze before the tray flips therefore it tips just water into the ice dispenser is there a quick fix ??????

Is the water from the dispenser actually chilled? This doesn't seem to be the case with some competitor's models in this size bracket.
It is, but it is certainly not as cold as the inside of the fridge. I was measuring temps due to issues with my first fridge, and the interior was around 3-4°C, and the dispenser is around 10°C, and room temperature is over 20°C.
The other thing to note is that the first 50-100ml of dispensed water is warmer, then about 600-700ml of cold-ish water and then it creeps up to room temperature by about 1.5 litres dispensed.
A family member has a larger fridge with full ice & water in the door, and it's water is room temperature and relies on dispensed crushed ice to produce "cold" water.
Since new had only trickle from water dispenser. Ice maker ok . Mains pressure is fully to spec. How do we rectify?
Hi,
I just plumbed in my fridge, everything is working well but The water dispenser isn’t very chilled, only slightly colder than tap water. Can the temperature be changed? Thanks
Hi Damien. Have you tried adjusting the controls found on the in side of the right door? Is the ice maker working and ice cubes being produced in the freezer?
I puchased the fridge in 2016. Recently the LH door has become hard to open, requiring considerably more force than the RH door. The hinge is not stiff, rather it feels like there's a big elastic band pulling the door closed. If I let go of the door, it slams shut. Is there some sort of tensioning device in the hinge or internal to the door and , if so, is there an adjustment? TIA.
I can’t help you there Pete.....get on to Fischer & Paykel and get them to fox it .....
Does the water dispenser need to be plumbed in?
Does the water dispenser need to be plumbed in?
Hi. No. I didn’t connect mine up for a while. When I did, Also didn’t bother with the filter since they need regular replacement that I don’t have time for. Hope that helps.
Thanks, but I found the specs and it does need to be plumbed in.
Fridge professionally installed. Ice being made, but zero out of the water dispenser. Have depressed dispenser for 2 mins+ to remove air, and checked hose is not kinked, and the tap turned on (note, ice being made so no problem there). Why is the water not working at all?
Why does my fridge make a grinding noise only just stared now won’t stop unless I open the door,
How old ur fridge? I have called technician to have look. It’s annoying, I thought it is good brand but I was wrong.
I replaced the flapper door spring on my fridge as the spring was broken and I also replaced the water filter cartridge and ever since the fridge alarms with 20 beeps every time I open either the fridge compartment or the freezer compartment
Hello Stu mine is doing it as well, how did you fix the issue
For my newly purchased (second hand) slightly older model RF522ADUX1, is this the correct water and ice kit #836854 (see link below)? Do I need a 350kPa PRV (it also mentions a 600kPa valve)?
What is strange is the genuine article (see link) is $190 while all the online companies and trade site(s) are asking $219 - $223 (with 'RRP $395') for the exact same kit!!

Can I connect my fridge directly through a PRV and into the unit without a filter? Melbourne water is perfectly fine, I don't see why I need to filter it and get into the replacement filter buying cycle. Thanks in advance for help.
If you are happy drinking Melbourne tap water. Defiitely fit PRV - guarantees constant volume and reduces risk of ruptured water hose. Most times F&P parts are cheaper than 3rd party.
How do you get colder water from the water Dispenser?
Hi The freezer door handle has become loose & the only instruction I can find is to tighten the screw hidden behind the handle with an allen key/wrench. I cant find a detailed instruction & at present the allen key isnt budging the screw in either direction. I dont want to damage the appliance or make the handle worse.
Any ideas?
undo the screws (top and bottom) and take the handle off - then reset the "boss" into the door frame.
refit the handle
Can I buy new water filters from Bunnings?
no,
it appears the ice cube tray has fallen out and i need to put back in .. it is connected by wires only.. is this an easy fix? our ice holder has been filling with frozen water not cubes obviously due to ice cube tray not being in correct spot
I have my fridge make so much noise and running all the times
Anyone can help me to find a solution?
