CHAPTER -1: GENERAL WARNINGS

Electrical Connection (For UK type plug)

For your safety please read the following information Warning: This appliance must be earthed. This appliance operates from 220-240 volts and should be protected by a 13 amp fuse in the plug.

The appliance is supplied with a standard 13 amp 3-pin mains plug tted with a 13-amp fuse. Should the fuse require replacement, it must be replaced with a fuse rated at 13 amp and approved to BS1362.

If the mains plug which is tted is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other reason,

please follow the instructions below on how to wire a 13 amp 3 pin plug..

How to wire a 13 amp plug. Important

The wires in the mains lead on this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow – Earth

As the colours may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows.

The green and yellow wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or with

the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow. The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked N. The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked

You must make sure the lead is rmly secured under the

cord clamp.

NO FROST technology

Differs from many other standard fridge freezers. Other appliances may experience ice in the freezer compartment due to the opening of the doors and humidity caused by the food. In such appliances defrosting is required. They have to be turned off periodically, the food inside moved and the ice removed.

Your "no frost" fridge freezer prevents such problems by evenly distributing in the fridge and freezer compartments through the use of a fan. This cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity and freezing.

CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER

• If you are changing a zone from a freezer to a refrigerator, empty the zone completely and leave the door open for 4 hours before relling and using.

• If you are changing a zone from a refrigerator to a freezer, empty the zone completely and leave the door open for 2 hours before relling and using.

Please note: If you have set Zone 1 or Zone 2 for use as a refrigerator they will not be affected by Eco or holiday mode:

• Do not use Zone 2 as a refrigerator in ambient temperatures above 38 degrees C.

• We do not recommend that you use your Fridge Freezer in environments colder than 10 degrees C.

create the conditions for a longer shelf life. To switch the appliance to Nutrifresh model press (mode) button until the Nutrifresh symbol light comes on. Zone 1 button will be off and you cannot change the Zone 1 compartment temperature. If Zone 1 is being used as a freezer, observe the following rules before using Nutrifresh model:

Important: The Zone 1 / Zone 2 compartment will be converted from freezer to cooler. Empty the food in the related compartment, then leave the door closed for 4 hours. After that, baskets and / or shelves removed from the compartment

should be re-tted and the food placed in the relevant compartment.

Notes:

• Nutrifresh mode should not be activated if Zone 1 is being used as a freezer.

• Food should not be put in front of the fan.

Warnings for temperature settings

• Your temperature adjustments will not be deleted when an energy breakdown occurs.

• The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the

temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required,change the temperature setting.

• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C.

• The thermostat setting should be set by taking into consideration how often the fresh food and freezer doors

are opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator and the environment in which and the positioning of the appliance.

• We recommend that when rst using the fridge freezer it should be left running for 24 hours uninterrupted to

ensure it is completely cooled. Do not open the fridge doors, or put food inside for this period.

• Your fridge freezer has a 5 minute built in delay function, designed to prevent damage to the compressor. When power is applied to your fridge freezer, it will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.

• Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are out of the stated temperature

intervals in terms of cooling efciency.

• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient tem-

perature within the 16°C - 43°C range.

Note: If the ambient temperature is higher than 38°C, the compartment temperature cannot be set to -22°C, -23°C or

-24°C. It can only be set to -16°C, -17°C, -18°C, -19°C, -20°C or -21°C.

• Fill the water to the line.

• Place the ice making tray in its original position

• When ice cubes are formed, twist the lever to drop ice cubes into the icebox.

Note:

• Do not ll the icebox with water in order to make ice. It may be broken.

• The movement of the ice maker may be difcult while the refrigerator is running. In such a case, it should be

cleaned after removing the glass shelves.

Visual and text descriptions on the accessories section may vary according to the model of your appliance.

Cleaning

• Before cleaning your fridge freezer, turn your mains supply off and remove the plug from the socket.

• Do not wash your fridge freezer by pouring water on to it.

• Use a warm, soapy cloth or sponge to wipe the interior and exterior of your fridge freezer.

• Carefully remove all shelves and drawers by sliding upwards or outwards and clean with soapy water. Do not

wash in a washing machine or dishwasher.

• Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all purpose cleaning agents to clean your fridge freezer. This may cause damage to the plastic surfaces and other components with the chemicals they contain.

• Clean the condenser at the back of your fridge freezer at least once a year with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.

Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.

Cleaning evaporation bowl

Your fridge defrosts automatically. Water produced by defrosting ows to the evaporating container passing through the

water collecting groove, and vaporizes here by itself.

Replacing LED Lighting

If your fridge freezer has LED lighting contact the Sharp help desk as this should be changed by authorized personnel

only.

CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE GUIDE

• Take care when storing tropical fruit such as pineapples as they can quickly deteriorate in lower temperatures.

• Divide and separate food into smaller pieces before storage.

• Cover or wrap food to prevent odours. We recommend that you store meat loosely covered as this allows air to

circulate around the meat causing the surface to dry slightly, helping to prevent the growth of bacteria.

• Do not store food close so that it blocks the crisper air adjustment button.

The table below is a quick guide, showing you the most efcient way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator

compartment.

Fruits and Vegetables 1 week Loose in Vegetable Holder

Fish and Meat 2-3 Days Wrapped on Glass Shelf

Fresh Cheese 3-4 Days Top Door Shelf

Butter and Margarine 1 Week Top Door Shelf

Bottles, Yogurt and Milk Refer to Packaging Top Door Shelf

Eggs 1 month In Egg Holder

The Freezer Compartment:

You should use the freezer compartments for storing food for long periods and making ice. Aim to freeze fresh food as quickly as possible so that it keeps its taste and appearance. We recommend that you place food you would like to freeze in the upper tray of the freezer compartment for 24 hours before placing it next to other frozen foods. It is important that you do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity of your Fridge Freezer, this will help to ensure that

your food freezes as quickly as possible. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24 hour period is 18 kg. The storage durations of frozen food can be changed by a variety of factors, such as; the frequency of the doors

opening and closing, thermostat settings, food types and the period of time that elapsed from when the food was acquired to the time it entered the freezer. It is important that you follow the packaging on frozen foods and do not exceed the storage duration. The table below contains some recommendations on freezing.
