STORING FOOD
Small foods Juice etc.
Bottles etc.
Frozen foods (Small size)
Frozen foods (Big size)
Vegetables
Fruits
Dairy products
Small foods Eggs etc.
Bottles etc. (Big size)
Meat, Fish, Poultry etc.
Vegetables are improper in this case. They may be frozen.
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 minimize moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be loosely enclosed in a plastic material (e.g. wrap, bags) and place in the vegetable crisper and fruit case. If you store a lot of vegetables, dew may form. This has no effect on the operation or the performance. Use a dry cloth to remove the dew.
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 tray.
Meats / Fish / Poultry
Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic • wrap. For larger cuts of meat, fi sh, 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 effi ciently. 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 foods or containers; otherwise the foods will not be evenly cooled throughout the refrigerator. Keep the door securely closed.
IN OUT
Do not place food directly in front of cold air outlet. This may lead to the food freezing.
For best freezing
Quality of foods should be fresh.• Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them • quickly. Food should be properly sealed, sealed tightly or covered.• Evenly place the food in the freezer.• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of frozen • food.
11
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING
Unplug the refrigerator fi rst to prevent electric shock. Do not splash water directly on the outer cabinet or the interior. This may lead to rusting and deterioration of the electrical insulation.
IMPORTANT
To prevent cracking on inside surfaces and plastic components, 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.
Remove the accessories e.g. shelves from the cabinet
and door. Wash them in warm soapy dishwashing water;
1
rinse in clean water and dry.
Clean the inside with a cloth soaked in warm soapy
dishwashing water. Then, use cold water to wipe off
2
soapy water.
Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth each time it is soiled.
3
Clean the Magnetic door seal with a toothbrush and
warm soapy dishwashing water.
4
Wipe the control panel with the dry cloth.
5
Defrosting
Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving system.
When the compartment light is blown
Contact the service agent approved by SHARP to request a replacement compartment light. The compartment light is not to be removed other than by qualifi ed service personnel.
When transporting
Wipe up water in the evaporating pan. Before wiping up • the water, wait more than 1 hour after pulling out the plug because refrigeration cycle equipment is extremely hot. (The evaporating pan is located on the rear of the product.)
Evaporating pan
The casters allow the refrigerator to • move back and forth.
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. The glass shelves weigh approximately 3 kg each. Hold fi rmly when removing from the cabinet or carrying. Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the inner • wall. This may cause the inner surface to crack.
Casters
Carry the refrigerator by holding the handles located on the • rear and bottom.
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 growth of mould:
Remove all food.1. Remove the power plug from the power point.2. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.3. Ensure that all the doors are wedged open slightly for air 4. circulation.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
Before you call for service, check the following points.
Problem Solution
The outside of the cabinet is hot when touched.
When there is refrigerator noise. It is normal for the refrigerator to produce the following sounds.
Frosting or condensation generation occurs inside or outside the refrigerator.
The foods in the refrigerator compartment freeze.
Noticeable odours. Wrapping is required for food with strong odours.
This is normal. The hot pipe is in the cabinet in order to prevent condensation generation.
Loud noise produced by the compressor when operation starts
--- Sound becomes quieter after a while. Loud noise produced once a day by the compressor
--- Operating sound produced immediately after automatic defrost operation. Sound of fl owing fl uid (gurgling sound, fi zzing sound)
--- Sound of refrigerant fl owing in pipes (sound may become louder from time to time). Cracking or crunching sound, squeaking sound
--- Sound produced by expansion and contraction of inner walls and internal parts during cooling.
This may occur in one of the following cases. Use a wet cloth for wiping frost and a dry cloth for wiping condensation.
When the ambient humidity is high.• When the door is frequently opened and closed.• When food containing plenty of moisture is stored. (Wrapping is required.)
Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with refrigerator temp. control set at 0°C?• Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with freezer temp. control set at -21°C?• Low ambient temperature may cause food to freeze even if refrigerator temp. control
is set to 6°C.
The control panel does not work.
This may occur in one of the following cases.
The panel or your fi nger is soiled with dripping, oil and etc. When you touch the panel with gloved hand, adhesive bandage on your fi nger, nail or
objects. Sticker or tape is affi xed on the keys. Touch position is slightly off from the keys.• Operate time is not enough for the keys to work.
