CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE
Temperature indicator
In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a temperature indicator located in
the coldest area.
To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make sure the message "OK"
appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does not appear, this means temperature has not been set
properly
It may be difficult to see the indicator, make sure it is properly lit.Each time the temperature setting device is
changed, wait for the stabilisation of the temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary,
with a new temperature setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait at
least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change.
NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance,
it is normal for the indication "OK" not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal build up
of ice crystals of ice crystals (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment, evaporator (overloaded
appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until
compressor off periods are obtained again.
Store food in the coldest area of the refrigerator.
Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate
cooling area. The coldest area is just above the crisper.
The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator.
To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is
located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration.
The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by the lower side of the sticker (head of
the arrow). The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same level with the arrow head.
The coldest area is below this level.
As these shelves are removable, make sure they are always at the same level with these
zone limits described on the stickers, in order to guarantee temperatures in this area.
Cleaning
• Before cleaning your fridge, turn your mains supply off and remove the plug from the socket.
• Do not wash your fridge by pouring water on to it.
• Use a warm, soapy cloth or sponge to wipe the interior and exterior of your fridge.
• 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. 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 at least once a year with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.
Defrosting
• Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator during operation; water is collected by the evaporating tray
and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporating tray and the defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically to prevent the water from
collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator.
Replacing LED Lighting
If your fridge has LED lighting contact the Sharp help desk as this should be changed by authorized personnel only.
CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE GUIDANCE
• To reduce frost build up never place liquids with unsealed containers in the fridge compartment.
• Allow warn or hot food to cool down before storing. This helps reduce power consumption.
• To avoid frost buildup ensure that nothing is stored touching the back wall.
• The coldest area of the refrigerator is at the bottom. We recommend to use this area to store food that will perish
easily, such as fish, ready meals, baked goods or dairy products. The warmest area is the top shelf of the door.
We recommend you store butter or cheese here.
• For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C are iced
and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
