Storing Food; Care And Cleaning - Sharp SJ-F72PV Operation Manual

STORING FOOD

Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage.
To maximize 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
(do not seal) and place in the Vegetable crisper or the Fruit
case. Those fruits and vegetables with thick skins e.g.
oranges do not require wrapping.
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.

CARE AND CLEANING

Some household cleaning
chemicals may affect the inside
surfaces and plastic shelves
resulting in splitting or cracks
occurring.
When cleaning all plastic parts
inside this refrigerator, only use
diluted dishwashing liquid (soapy
water). Make sure that all plastic
parts are thoroughly rinsed with
water after cleaning.
1. Remove the shelves and pockets 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. Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth each time it is soiled.
4. Clean the Magnetic door seal with a toothbrush and
warm soapy dishwashing water.
5. Wipe the control panel with the dry cloth.
NOTE:
• Do not use polishing powder, benzine, hot water etc.
• If undiluted detergent is used or soapy water is not wiped
off thoroughly, cracking of plastic parts can result.
• Wipe any food oils adhered to plastic components as
they can cause cracking of the plastic surface.
• The glass shelves weigh approximately 3 kg 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.
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.
• 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 stored or covered and the air
should be removed to seal tightly.
• Evenly place the food in the freezer.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing
food.
Replacing method of the lamp bulb
1. Unplug the refrigerator first to prevent electric shock.
2. Remove the light cover.
3. Replace the lamp bulb with the same type.
Lamp cap E14, MAX 15W, 4 pieces
Light
cover
Aluminum board
CAUTION:
• Use only the specified lamp bulb by SHARP.
• Do not remove the rubber ring in the lamp socket.
• Do not touch the aluminum board around the lamp.
The edge face of the metal may cause injury.
Defrosting
• Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving
system. Whereby the defrost cycle start time is proportional
to the running time of your refrigerator compressor, i. e., the
less time the refrigerator compressor operates (during the
winter season or you're away on holidays), the longer the
time between each defrost cycle.
• The defrost water collects in the evaporating pan, where
it is evaporated by the heat of the compressor, etc.
• The evaporating pan does not require cleaning or
maintenance.
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.
