User manual SHARP ND-224U2 DATASHEET

[. . . ] When cleaning your refrigerator, do not splash water directly on the outer cabinet or the interior. This may lead to rusting and deterioration of the electrical insulation. When cleaning any areas adjacent to electrical components or replacing the lamp bulb, unplug the refrigerator first to prevent electric shock. Should electrical components be accidentally immersed in water, unplug the refrigerator, dry the parts and contact your nearest service agent approved by ECE. [. . . ] Disconnect from the mains electricity supply by removing the mains plug from the electricity supply socket. Do not remove by pulling the mains lead. Make sure that you leave adequate ventilation space around the refrigerator to prevent the compressor from overheating and stopping. Please follow the instructions given for installation. 2 12. The refrigeration system behind and inside the refrigerator contains refrigerant. If this system is punctured it could result in serious damage to your refrigerator, therefore do not allow any sharp objects to come into contact with the refrigeration system. Should the flexible supply cord be damaged, it must be replaced by service agent approved by ECE as a special cord is required. In case of gas leak, ventilate the area by opening a window, etc. Do not touch the refrigerator or the power outlet. Do not place heavy or easily broken objects on top of the refrigerator. Objects may fall when opening or closing the refrigerator, causing injury. 16. CONTROL set at 7 (MAX), foods stored in the refrigerator compartment may also freeze. · Low ambient temperature may cause placed foods to freeze even if REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL is set to 1 (MIN). 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. Lever NOTE: To prevent damage to the Ice cube box, do not make ice in the Ice cube box or pour oil into it. Ice cube box DEFROSTING Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving system. Whereby the defrost cycle start time is proportional to the running time of your refrigerator compressor, i. e. , the less time the refrigerator compressor operates (during the winter season or you're away on holidays), the longer the time between each defrost cycle. 5 STORING FOOD Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage. To maximize the shelf life of perishable food products, ensure that the food is of the freshest possible quality. The following is a general guide to help promote longer food storage. NOTE: · Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow the cooling air to circulate efficiently. · Hot foods should be cooled before storing. Storing hot foods increases the temperature in the unit and increases the risk of food spoilage. · Do not block the outlet and inlet of the cool air circulating circuit with foods or containers; otherwise the foods will not be evenly cooled throughout the refrigerator. Fruit / Vegetables To minimize moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be loosely enclosed in a plastic material e. g. [. . . ] · If undiluted detergent is used or soapy water is not wiped off thoroughly, cracking of plastic parts can result. · Wipe any food oils adhered to plastic components as they can cause cracking of the plastic surface. 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. 7 WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE Before you call for service, check the following points.
