Model: E522BRXFDU5
The Fisher & Paykel E522BRXFDU5 494L Series 5 Refrigerator Freezer is a premium bottom mount fridge designed for households that want generous storage, convenient filtered water and automatic ice in a practical stainless steel design.
With 494L usable capacity, including a 348L refrigerator compartment and 146L freezer, this Fisher & Paykel fridge offers plenty of room for everyday groceries, fresh produce, drinks and frozen food. Its bottom freezer layout keeps frequently used refrigerated items at a comfortable height while providing easy access to organised freezer drawers below.
Ice & Water Convenience
The E522BRXFDU5 features a slimline external water dispenser, allowing you to enjoy chilled filtered water without opening the refrigerator door.
It also includes an automatic internal ice maker with a dedicated ice bin and scoop. Ice production can be switched off when additional freezer space is required, while the Ice Boost function can increase ice production by up to 30% when needed.
ActiveSmart™ Foodcare
Fisher & Paykel's ActiveSmart™ Foodcare technology continuously monitors how the refrigerator is being used and adjusts cooling accordingly.
By maintaining stable internal temperatures and adapting cooling and defrost cycles to everyday usage, ActiveSmart™ helps keep food fresher for longer while avoiding unnecessary energy use.
Humidity-Controlled Produce Storage
The refrigerator includes two fruit and vegetable bins with humidity controls, allowing different fresh foods to be stored in conditions better suited to them.
This creates a more suitable environment for fruit and vegetables and helps maintain freshness for longer.
Spacious Bottom Freezer
The 146L bottom freezer includes multiple easy-slide storage bins, making it easier to separate frozen food, meat, meal-prep containers and everyday essentials.
Additional freezer features include:

Easy-Care Stainless Steel Finish

Inside, spill-safe glass shelves help contain minor spills and drips for easier maintenance.
