CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER
"Door Open" Indicator;
• The "Door Open" indicator on the lock slide indicates whether the door is closed properly or not.
• If the red indicator is visible, the door is still open.
• If the red indicator is invisible, the door is properly closed.
• Observe that the freezer door should always be kept closed properly. This will prevent food inside the
freezer from defrosting; it will avoid heavy ice and frost build-up inside the freezer and an unnecessary
increase in energy consumption.
Accessories
Ice tray
• Fill the ice tray with water and place in freezer compartment.
• After the water completely turned into ice, you can twist the tray as shown below to get the ice cube.
Visual and text descriptions on the accessories section may vary according which model you have..
Cleaning
• Before cleaning your fridge freezer, turn your mains supply off and remove the plug from the socket.
• Do not wash your fridge freezer by pouring water on to it.
• Use a warm, soapy cloth or sponge to wipe the interior and exterior of your fridge freezer.
• Carefully remove all shelves and drawers by sliding upwards or outwards and clean with soapy water. Do not
wash in a washing machine or dishwasher.
• Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all purpose cleaning agents to clean your fridge
freezer. This may cause damage to the plastic surfaces and other components with the chemicals they contain.
• Clean the condenser at the back of your fridge freezer at least once a year with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.
Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment;
• Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation ; water is collected by the
evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporating tray and the defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically to prevent the water from
collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator.
Freezer compartment;
Frost, accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically. (Use the plastic scraper provided.)
The freezer compartment should be cleaned in the same way as the refrigerator at least twice a year.
For this;
• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to "5" position to freeze the foods completely.
• During defrosting, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a cool place. The
inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember to use these foods within a relatively
short period of time.
• Set thermostat knob to position "•" or unplug the unit; leave the door open until completely defrosted.
• To accelerate the defrosting process one or more basins of warm water can be placed in the freezer compartment.
• Dry the inside of the unit carefully and set the thermostat knob to MAX position.
Replacing LED Lighting
If your fridge freezer has LED lighting contact the Sharp help desk as this should be changed by authorized personnel
only.
