1. This refrigerator is airtight. TO PREVENT
FATAL ACCIDENTS TO CHILDREN,
please completely remove the door prior
to discarding the refrigerator.
2. Highly volatile and inflammable 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.
3. To prevent damage to the outer cabinet,
avoid contact with lacquer, and paint, etc.
4. When cleaning your refrigerator, do not
splash water directly on the outer cabinet
or the interior. This may lead to rusting and
deterioration of the electrical insulation.
5. When cleaning any areas adjacent to elec-
trical components or replacing the lamp bulb,
unplug the refrigerator first to prevent electric shock.
6. Should electrical components be accidentally immersed in water, unplug the refrigerator, dry the parts and contact your nearest service agent approved by SHARP.
7. When disconnecting the power plug, do not
touch the pins of plug. This may cause electric shock.
8 This refrigerator is designed solely for the
purpose of storing foodstuff for domestic
use in accordance with the instructions
given in this manual. Using the refrigerator for other purposes might be harmful to
persons or property.
9. This refrigerator is not suitable for the storage of materials requiring precise temperatures. Deterioration of these materials will
be dangerous.
10. Dust deposited on the power plug may
cause fire. Wipe it off carefully.
11. Do not attempt to change or modify this
refrigerator. This may result in fire, electric
shock or injury.
12. Information regarding disposal of the
appliance
Flammable insulation blowing gases
should be disposed appropriately. Take the
cabinet and doors to a recycling plant for
flammable insulation blowing gases.
13. The key should be kept out of the reach of
the children, and not in the vicinity of the appliance, in order to prevent the children from
being locked inside.
1. Do not touch the compressor unit or its
peripheral parts, as they become extremely hot during operation and the metal
edges may cause injury.
2. If the power supply is accidentally disconnected, please wait for at least 5 minutes
before re-connecting the power, as back
pressure in the compressor may trip the
overload relay.
3. Avoid removing food from the freezer with
your bare hands. Directly touching products stored at sub-zero temperatures can
result in frostbite.
4. To prevent accidental power disconnection, plug the refrigerator directly to the
source. Do not use a double adaptor as
loss of power could lead to the spoiling of
the stored food.
5. Do not place bottles in the freezer as they
may crack when frozen.
6. Keep the door securely closed. If the door
is left ajar, the controlled inner temperature will rise, resulting in food spoilage and
increase in electricity costs.
7. Do not install the refrigerator in a damp or
wet location as this may cause damage
to the insulation and a leak. Condensation may also build on the outer cabinet
and cause rust.
8. When installing or moving the refrigerator, make sure that you do not nip or kink
the power cord. Damage of the power cord
may cause electric shock or fire.
9. Do not use this refrigerator when the
power cord or plug is damaged, or the
outlet attachment is loose, as they may
cause electric shock or fire.
10. 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.
11. Make sure that you leave adequate ventilation space around the refrigerator to prevent the compressor from overheating and
stopping. Please follow the instructions
given for installation.
INSTALLATION
12. The refrigeration system behind and in-
side 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.
13. Should the flexible supply cord be damaged, it must be replaced by service agent
approved by SHARP as a special cord is
required.
14. In case of gas leak, ventilate the area by
opening a window, etc. Do not touch the
refrigerator or the power outlet.
15. Do not place heavy or easily broken objects on top of the refrigerator. Objects
may fall when opening or closing the refrigerator, causing injury.
16. Do not place objects containing liquid on
top of the refrigerator. Spillage may cause
electric shock or fire.
17. Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the inner wall. This may cause
the inner surface to crack.
18. This refrigerator is not intended for use
by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the refrigerator.
1. To ensure adequate ventilation for your
refrigerator, it is recommended to provide
space of 6cm on both sides and at the
back, and space of 30cm above the refrigerator. Insufficient spacing will decrease
the cooling efficiency, resulting in unnecessary consumption of electricity.
