CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER
• Make sure to unplug the fridge before starting to clean it.
• Do not wash your fridge by pouring water.
• You can wipe the inner and outer sides with a soft cloth or a sponge using warm and soapy water.
• Remove the parts individually and clean with soapy water. Do not wash in washing machine.
• Never use flammable, explosive or corrosive material like thinner, gas, acid for cleaning.
• You should clean the condenser with broom at least once a year in order to provide energy saving and increase
the productivity.
Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.
Defrosting
Your refrigerator automatically defrosts. The water formed as a result of defrosting passes
through the water collection spout, flows into the vaporization container behind your
refrigerator and evaporates by itself in there.
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 GUIDANCE

Refrigerator compartment
• 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.
Freezer compartment
• Use the freezer to store frozen foods for long periods of time and make ice cubes.
• If you are going to use the refrigerator with maximum freezing capacity:
* Place the foods that you want to freeze to the top basket of the freezer department without exceeding the
freezing capacity of your refrigerator.
* While you use Super Freeze Mode , you mustn't storage an exist foozen food near the fresh foods that you
want to freeze.
Then enable the "Super Freeze" mode again. You may place your food next to the other frozen food after they
are frozen (for at least 24 hours after the 2nd activation of the "Super Freeze" mode).
• To freeze fresh food - ensure that as much of the surface of food to be frozen is in contact with the cooling
surface.
• Do not put fresh food on either side of frozen food as it can thaw it.
• While freezing fresh foods(i.e meat,fish and mincemeat),divide into portion sizes.
• Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and remember to consume them in a short
period of time.
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.
• The instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is
provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing
is intact.
• Frozen foods should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be
stored in the freezer as soon as possible.
• If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it has been previously stored at an
unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how often the door is
