Door Alarm

When the refrigerator or freezer door is left open, the door 

alarm will sound.

• 

The door alarm will sound in 1 minute after opening the 

door and again after 1 minute (once in each case).

• 

If the door is left open for approx. 3 minutes, the alarm 

will sound continuously.

Deodorizing unit

Deodorizing catalyst is installed on the routes of cold air. 

No operation and cleaning are required.

Hints when making ice

1 

Do not over fill the Ice cube trays; 

otherwise the ice cubes will be 

joined together when frozen.

2 

When the ice cubes are made, turn 

the lever clockwise to empty the ice 

into the Ice cube box.

NOTE

To prevent damage to the Ice cube box, 

do not make ice in the Ice cube box or 

pour oil into it.

Plasmacluster

The Plasmacluster automatically starts operating when 

the refrigerator is powered on.

Notes about Plasmacluster operation

The ionizer inside your refrigerator releases clusters of 

ions, which are collective masses of positive and negative 

ions, into the refrigerator compartment. These ion clusters 

inactivate airborne mold fungus.

• 

There may be a slight odor in the refrigerator. This is the 

smell of ozone generated by the ionizer. The amount of 

ozone is minimal, and quickly decomposes in the 

refrigerator.

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. 

(Only fruit and vegetable shelf is not removable.)

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 

• 

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 2 kg each. Hold 

firmly when removing from the cabinet or carrying. 

• 

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 

is not to 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.
