WARNING

CAUTION

Highly volatile and flammable materials such as ether, petrol, propane gas, adhesive agents and pure alcohol etc. are liable to explode. Do not store these materials in the refrigerator.

Dust deposited on the power plug may cause fire. Wipe it off carefully.

Do not attempt to change or modify this refrigerator. This may result in fire, electric shock or injury.

Ensure that the refrigerator presents no danger to children whilst being stored for disposal. (e.g. remove the door to prevent child entrapment.)

This refrigerator should be disposed of appropriately. Take the refrigerator to a recycling plant for flammable insulation blowing gases.

Attention about Power supply:

• Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

• Make sure that the power cord has not been damaged

during installation or moving. If the power plug or cord is loose, do not insert the power plug. There is a risk of electric shock or fire.

• Disconnect from the mains electricity supply by removing the mains plug from the electricity supply socket. Do not remove by pulling the mains lead. This may cause electric shock or fire.

• Should the flexible supply cord be damaged, it must be replaced by service agent approved by SHARP as a special cord is required.

Do not touch the compressor unit or its peripheral parts, as they become extremely hot during operation and the metal edges may cause injury.

Do not touch food or metal containers in the freezer compartment with wet hands. This may cause frostbite.

Do not place bottled and canned drinks in the freezer as they may crack when frozen.

The refrigeration system behind and inside the refrigerator contains refrigerant. If this system is punctured it could result in serious damage to your refrigerator, therefore do not allow any sharp objects to come into contact with

the refrigeration

system.

In case of gas leak, ventilate the area by opening a window, etc. Do not touch the refrigerator or the power outlet.

Do not place objects containing liquid or unsteady objects on top of refrigerator.

This refrigerator is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the refrigerator by a person responsible for their safety. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the refrigerator.

INSTALLATION

2. Using the front adjustable foot, ensure that the refrigerator is positioned firmly and level on the floor.

3. Connect the power plug to a 230/240 volt. 10 amp. power point.

Before using your refrigerator

Clean the inside parts with a cloth soaked in warm water. If soapy water is used, wipe it off thoroughly with water.

OPERATION

Controlling temperatures

• FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL regulates the quantity of

cold air to the freezer.

• With FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL set to MAX, you may

need to adjust the REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL to balance the temperatures.

• REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL controls the

compressor running time of the refrigeration system.

• MAX setting will result in colder temperature in both

(refrigerator and freezer) compartments.

XTREME AMBIENT TEMPERATURES

During periods of extreme ambient temperatures (e.g. less than 10°C, or more than 35°C) you may find it necessary to rebalance the freezer and refrigerator temperature controls accordingly.

Hints when making ice

1. Do not over fill the Ice cube trays; otherwise the ice cubes will be joined together when frozen.

2. When the ice cubes are made, turn the lever clockwise to empty the ice into the Ice cube box.

NOTE:

To prevent damage to the Ice cube box, do not make ice in the Ice cube box.

Deodorizing unit

A deodorizing catalyst is installed on the routes of cold air. No operation or cleaning is required.

Defrosting

Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving system.

Keep adequate ventilation space around the refrigerator.

•

The figure shows the minimum required space for installing the refrigerator. The amount of space around the refrigerator affects the amount of power consumption.

• Insufficient spacing will decrease cooling efficiency and increase energy consumption.

This may reduce the life of the unit and void warranty.

NOTE

• Position your refrigerator so that the plug is accessible.

• Keep your refrigerator out of direct sunlight.

• Do not place next to a heat generating appliance.

• This refrigerator is designed for indoor use only, do not

place the unit on an unsealed surface.

WARNING

■

Do not install the refrigerator in a damp or wet lo

cation as this may cause damage to the

sulation. Condensation may also build on the

uter cabinet and cause rust.

CARE AND CLEANING

1. Remove the shelves and pockets from the cabinet and door. Wash them in warm soapy dishwashing water; rinse in clean water and dry.

2. Clean the inside with a cloth soaked in warm soapy dishwashing water. Then, use cold water to wipe off soapy water.

3. Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth each time it is soiled.

4. Clean the magnetic door seal with a toothbrush and warm soapy dishwashing water.

If a refrigerator lamp blows

The lamp should only be replaced by a service centre approved by SHARP.

Switching off your refrigerator

If the refrigerator needs to be switched off for an extended period, the following steps should be taken to reduce the symptom of mould:

1. Remove all food.

2. Remove the power plug from the power point.

3. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.

4. Ensure that all the doors are wedged open slightly for air circulation.

STORING FOOD

Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage. To maximise the shelf life of perishable food products, ensure that the food is of the freshest possible quality. The following is a general guide to help promote longer food storage.

Fruit / Vegetables

To minimise moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be loosely enclosed in a plastic material (e.g. wrap, bags) and placed in the vegetable crisper.

Dairy Products & Eggs

• Most dairy products have a use by date on the outer packaging which informs the recommended temperature and shelf life of the product.

• Eggs should be stored in the Egg pocket.

Meat / Fish / Poultry

• Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic wrap.

• For larger cuts of meat, fish, or poultry, place to the rear of the shelves.

• Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in an airtight container.

NOTE:

• Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow the cooling air to circulate efficiently.

• Hot foods should be cooled before storing. Storing hot foods increases the temperature in the unit and increases the risk of food spoilage.

• Do not block the outlet and inlet of the cool air circulating circuit with food or containers; otherwise the food will not be evenly cooled throughout the refrigerator.

• Do not place food directly in front of cold air outlet. This may lead to the food freezing.

FOR BEST FREEZING

• Quality of food should be fresh.

• Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them

quickly.

• Food should be properly stored or covered and the air should be removed to seal tightly.

• Evenly place the food in the freezer.

• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing

food.

OUT

Vegetable shelf

• Keep the door securely closed.

WARNING

■

Unplug the refrigerator first to prevent electric s

hock.

■

Do not splash water directly on the outer cabinet o

r the interior. This may lead to rusting and

eterioration of the electrical insulation.

IMPORTANT

To prevent cracking on inside surfaces and plastic c

omponents, follow these tips :

• Wipe any food oils adhered to plastic components.

•

Some household chemicals may cause damage, so use

only diluted washing-up liquid (soapy water).

•

If undiluted detergent is used or soapy water is not wiped

off thoroughly, cracking of plastic parts can result.

•

Wipe any spills from the refrigerator immediately as acid

or alkaline in the food can cause cracking and staining of plastic parts.

NOTE

• Do not use hot water, household cleaning powders, creams

or spray-on cleaning products, or any other cleaning products such as mineral turpentine, methylated spirits, thinners, petrol etc. These may damage your refrigerator and may void any warranty.

• If the power supply is disconnected, please wait for at least

5 minutes before re-connecting power.

• Wipe any spills from the control knob immediately as liquid

ingress can damage the electronics.

• Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the inner

wall. This may cause the inner surface to crack.
