Installation Information

Before unpacking and manoeuvering your freezer please take some time to familiarise yourself with the following points.

  • Position away from direct sunlight and away from any heat source such as a radiator.

  • Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, Gas ovens and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.

  • Do not expose your freezer to moisture or rain.

  • Your freezer should be positioned at least 20mm away from another freezer.

  • Clearance of at least 150 mm is required at the top of your appliance. Do not place anything on top of your appliance.

  • For safe operation it is important that your freezer is safe and balanced. The adjustable feet are used to level your freezer. Make sure that your appliance is level before placing any foodstuffs inside it.

  • We recommend that you wipe all shelving and trays with a cloth soaked in warm water mixed with a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda before use. After cleaning rinse with warm water and dry.

  • Install using the plastic distance guides, which can be found at the rear of the appliance. Turn 90 degrees (as shown in the diagram). This will keep the condenser from touching the wall.

  • Freezer should be placed against a wall with a free distance not exceeding 75 mm.

  • This appliance is designed to work in difficult climate conditions (up to 43 °C or 110° F) and is powered with ‘Freezer Shield’ technology which ensures that the frozen food in the freezer will not defrost even if the ambient temperature falls as low as -15 °C. So you may then install your appliance in an unheated room without having to worry about frozen food in the freezer being spoilt. When the ambient temperature returns to normal, you may continue using the appliance as usual.

IconBefore using your freezer

  • Before setting up your freezer, check for any visible damage. Do not install or use your freezer if it is damaged.
  • When using your freezer for the first time, keep it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging into the mains. This will allow efficient operation and prevents damage to the compressor.
  • You may notice a light odour when using your freezer for the first time. This is perfectly normal and will fade away as the freezer starts to cool.

No-Frost technology

No-frost freezers differ from other static freezers in their operating principle.
In normal freezers, the humidity entering the freezer due to opening the door and the humidity inherent in the food causes freezing in the freezer compartment. To defrost the frost and ice in the freezer compartment, you are periodically required to turn off the freezer, place the food that needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled container and remove the ice gathered in the freezer compartment.

The situation is completely different in no-frost freezers. Dry and cold air is blown into the freezer compartment homogeneously and evenly from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously and evenly between the shelves cools all of your food equally and uniformly, thus preventing humidity and freezing.

Therefore your no-frost freezer allows you ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.

Defrosting

Your freezer automatically defrosts. The water formed as a result of defrosting passes through the water collection spout, flows into the vaporization container behind your freezer and evaporates by itself in there.

FOOD STORAGE GUIDANCE

  • The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for storing frozen foods for the period of time indicated on packaging and for making ice cubes..
  • Do not put fresh and warm food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
  • While freezing fresh foods (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in portions you will use in a single serving.
  • For storing frozen foods, the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully. If no information is provided, food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
  • Maximum load: if you want to store large quantities of food and use the maximum net capacity of the freezer, you can remove all the sliding drawers but you should keep the upper shelf flaps. Thanks to this, it is possible to store bulky items directly on the shelves.’
  • When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
  • Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible time.
  • If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that 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 opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.

If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer:

  • While freezing fresh foods, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label. (your refrigerator has the capacity to freeze 25 kg at 25°C ambient)
  • For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, activate Super Freeze (SF) mode 24 hours before placing fresh food into the freezer.
  • After placing fresh food into the freezer, 24 hours is generally sufficient for freezing. ”Super Freeze” mode will be deactivated automatically in 2-3 days to save energy.

If you would freeze a small amount (up to 3 kg) in your freezer:

  • Place your food without touching already frozen food and activate “Fast Freezing” mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after it is completely frozen (after minimum 24 hours).
  • Do not re-freeze frozen food after it has thawed. This may cause health issues, such as food poisoning.
  • Allow hot food to completely cool down before placing it in the freezer.
  • When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.

DOOR REVERSAL

Repositioning the door

  • It depends on which freezer you have as to whether it is possible the reverse the door.
  • It is not possible where handles are attached at the front of the appliance.
  • If your model does not have handles it is possible to reverse the doors, but this needs to be completed by authorised personnel. Please call Sharp service.

Check Warnings;

If your freezer is not operating;

  • Is there a power failure?
  • Is the plug connected to the socket correctly?
  • Is the fuse of the socket to which the plug is connected or the main fuse blown?
  • Is there any failure at the socket? To check this, plug your refrigerator into a known working socket.

If your freezer is not cooling enough;

  • Is the temperature adjustment right?
  • Is the door of your freezer opened frequently and left open for a long while?
  • Is the door of freezer closed properly?
  • Did you put a dish or food on your freezer so that it contacts the rear wall of your freezer so as to prevent the air circulation?
  • Is your freezer filled excessively?
  • Is there adequate distance between your freezer and the rear and side walls?
  • Is the ambient temperature within the range of values specified in the operating manual?

If the food in your freezer is over cooled

  • Is the temperature adjustment right?
  • Are there many food recently put inside the freezer?

If your freezer is operating too loudly;

To maintain the set cooling level, compressor may be activated from time to time. Noises from your freezer at this time are normal and due to its function. When the required cooling level is reached, noises will be decreased automatically. If the noises persist;

  • Is your appliance stable? Are the legs adjusted?
  • Is there anything behind your freezer?
  • Are the shelves or dishes on the shelves vibrating? Re-place the shelves and/or dishes if this is the case.
  • Are the items placed on your freezer vibrating?

Normal Noises;
Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:

  • During automatic defrosting.
  • When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).

Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.

Compressor noise (Normal motor noise): This noise means that the compressor operates normally Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated.

Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.

Air Blowing Noise (Normal fan noise): This noise can be heard in No-Frost freezer during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.

If humidity builds up inside the freezer;

  • Has the food been properly packaged? Have the containers been well dried before they were put into the freezer?
  • Is the door of the freezer opened very frequently? When the door is opened, the humidity found in the air in the room enters the freezer. Especially if the humidity rate in the room is too high, the more frequently the door is opened the faster will be the humidification.

If the doors are not opened and closed properly;

  • Do the food packages prevent closing of the door?
  • Are the door freezer, baskets and Ice box placed properly?
  • Is door gasket broken or torn?
  • Is your freezer on a level surface?

If the edges of freezer cabinet that the door joint contact are warm;
Especially in summer (hot weather), the surfaces that the joint contact may get warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • The compressor protection thermal fuse will cutout after sudden power breakdowns or after unplugging the appliance, because the gas in the cooling system is not stabilised. This is quite normal, and the freezer will restart after 4 or 5 minutes.
  • The cooling unit of your freezer is hidden in the rear wall. Therefore, water droplets or ice may occur on the rear surface of your freezer due to the operation of the compressor in specified intervals. This is normal. There is no need to perform a defrosting operation unless the ice is excessive.
  • If you will not use your freezer for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your freezer according to Part 4 and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
  • The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only at home and for the stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If the consumer use the appliance in a way that does not comply with these features, we emphasise that the producer and the dealer shall not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
  • If the problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please consult an authorised service provider.

TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

  • Do not install the appliance close to heat producing appliances. Such as cooker, oven, dishwaher or radiator, and locate the appliance in the coolest part of the room.
  • Locate the appliance ina cool well ventilated room and make sure that the air openings of the appliances are not obstructed.
  • Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before placing in the freezer.
  • Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compresor to switch on unnecessarily often.
  • Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly.
  • Cover foods before placing them in the freezer. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
  • Refer to the “temperature settings” section for the suggested temperature control settings.
  • Do not block cold air vents. Doing so causes the freezer to run longer and use more energy.
  • Keep freezer full.
  • Level the freezer so that the door closes tightly.
  • Occasionally clean the rear of the appliance with a vacuum cleaner or paint brush to prevent an increased power consumption.
  • Keep door gaskets clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
