Care and cleaning
Important
Follow the tips below to prevent cracks on the
inner surfaces and plastic components
• Wipe out food oil adhered to plastic parts.
• 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, it may result in cracks of plastic
parts.
Cleaning
For hygienic reasons, make sure to do following
things regularly.
• Remove the accessories (e.g. shelves) from the cabinet
and the door. Wash them by warm soapy dishwashing
water. After that, rinse them in clean water and dry.
• Clean the inside with a cloth soaked in warm soapy
dishwashing water. Then, use cold water to wipe off
soapy water thoroughly.
• Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth each time it gets
dirty.
• Clean the magnetic door seal with a toothbrush and
warm soapy dishwashing water.
• Wipe the control panel with a dry cloth.

Note
• After cleaning, make sure to put the shelves and the
cases on original position.
• Do not use heavy-duty cleansers or solvents (lacquer,
paint, polishing powder, benzine, boiled water, etc.)
which may cause damages.
• If you pull out the power plug once, wait 5 minutes at
least before connecting the power plug again.
• The glass shelves are heavy to carry. Hold them
fi
rmly
when you remove the shelves from the cabinet.
• Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the
inner wall. This may cause cracks to inner surface.
Before transporting
Wipe up water in the evaporating pan. Before wiping
up the water, wait more than 1 hour after pulling out the
plug because refrigeration cycle equipment is extremely
hot. (The evaporating pan is located on the rear of the
product.)
Evaporating pan
Defrosting of the
cooling unit
Defrosting is automatically operated by a unique energy
saving system. (Approx. once a day.) Ice making takes
time because the temperature inside becomes slightly
higher than usual during the defrosting.
When the compartment
light is blown
Contact the service agent approved by SHARP to
replace the light. The light is not to be replaced other
than by quali
fi
ed service personnel.

extended period, the following steps should be taken to
reduce the growth of mold
1. Remove all food.
2. Remove the power plug from the socket.
3. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
4. Keep all the doors open slightly for a few days to dry.
