STORING FOOD

Dairy products

Eggs

Small foods etc.

Bottles etc.

Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage.

To maximize the shelf life of perishable food products, ensure that the food is 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 (do not seal) and place 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 holder.

Meats / 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 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 freezing food.

9

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

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING

???Unplug the refrigerator first 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.

1 Remove the accessories e.g. shelves 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

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

5 Wipe the control panel with the dry cloth.

NOTE

???To prevent damage to your refrigerator, do not use heavy duty cleansers or solvents (lacquer, paint, polishing powder, benzine, boiled water, etc.)

???If the power supply is disconnected, please wait for at least 5 minutes before re-connecting power.

???The glass shelves weigh approximately 2kg each. Hold firmly when removing from the cabinet or carrying.

???When dropped the juice and the like near the control panel, wipe off directly. It becomes cause of failure of the control panel.

???Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the inner wall. This may cause the inner surface to crack.

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 should not be removed other than by qualified service personnel.

Switching off your refrigerator

If you switch your refrigerator off when you are going away for an extended period, remove all food, clean the interior thoroughly. Remove the power cord plug from the power socket and leave all doors open.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE

Before you call for service, check the following points.
