• Food has a limited storage life. Make sure not to exceed use-by date indicated by manufacturer.

Freezer

• Freeze small quantities of food at a time in order to freeze them quickly.
• Food should be properly sealed tightly or covered .
• Place foods in the freezer evenly.
• Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing food.

* Notes for ice making

• Except for the position in the picture of “Description”, the ice making process may take longer.
• When you try to freeze much foods or water at once it may slow down to make ice.
• You may activate Express freezing mode to make ice quickly

Refrigerator

Fruit / Vegetables

• Fruit and vegetables should be loosely enclosed in a plastic material e.g. wrap, bags (do not seal) and placed in the fruit and vegetable crisper to minimize moisture loss.
• Fruits and vegetables which are easily effected by low temperature should be stored in a cool place except for the refrigerator.

Dairy Products & Eggs

• Most dairy products have their best-before date on the outer packaging which informs the recommended temperature and shelf life of the foods.
• Eggs should be stored in the egg holder.

Meats / Fish / Poultry

• Place on a plate or a 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.

*Notes for fresh food

• Fresh food (securely wrapped) should be stored in limited time to prevent spoilage and badly affecting other stored foods.

Advice for preventing dew or frost inside the refrigerator

• Keep the door securely closed. If the food falls down, it may cause a gap between the cabinet and the door. Move it back to the shelf or the pocket.
• Open and close the door quickly as much as possible. Dew or frost may appear if the door is left open for a long period of time or opening and closing of the door is very often.
• Stored items should be packed or sealed with such as food containers or plastic wraps. (Especially food with high-moisture)

Advice for storing food

• Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow the cooling air to circulate efficiently.
• Opening the door for long periods can cause a signifi cant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
• Hot food should be cooled before storing. Storing hot food increases the temperature in the unit and the risk of food spoilage.
• Do not block the outlet and inlet of the cool air circulating circuit with food or containers; otherwise the food is 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.

Tips for saving energy

•  Install the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area and keep the space to ventilate.
• Keep your refrigerator out of direct sunlight and do not place it next to heat generating appliance.
• Avoid opening the door as much as possible.
• Hot food should be cooled before storing.
• Place the food evenly on the shelves to allow the cool air to circulate efficiently.

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. <SJ-FX52TP, SJ-FX57TP>

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.)

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 qualified service personnel.

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 growth of mold
