CARE AND 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.
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 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, acid or
alkaline in the food can cause cracking and staining of
plastic parts.
•
Wipe any spills from the control panel immediately, liquid
ingress can damage the electronics.
If a refrigerator lamp blows
The lamp should only be replaced by a service centre
approved by SHARP.
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
symptom of mold:
1.
Remove all food.
2.
Remove the power plug from the power point.
3.
Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
4.
Ensure that all the doors are wedged open slightly for
air circulation.
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) and
placed 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 pocket.
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.
•
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.
Some household cleaning chemicals
can cause cracks, splits or
discolouration on the inside surface of
the refrigerator and door liner.
Only use diluted dishwashing
liquid
and ensure that all plastic is
wiped with fresh water after cleaning.
