This refrigerator is provided with an indicator of temperature in the refrigerator compartment to allow you to control the average temperature in the coldest zone. Coldest zone The symbol indicates the coldest zone in the refrigerator compartment. (The door pocket positioned at the same height isn't the coldest zone.) Checking the temperature in the coldest zone You can carry out regular checks to ensure the temperature in the coldest zone is correct and, if necessary, adjust the refrigerator temp. control. To maintain a correct temperature inside the appliance, check that the indicator of temperature is always BLUE. If the indicator of temperature turns WHITE, the temperature is too high; in this case, increase the refrigerator temp. control setting and wait for 6 hours before checking the indicator of temperature again. NOTE

  • The internal temperature of the refrigerator depends on various factors such as the ambient temperature of the room, the amount of food stored and the frequency of door opening.
  • When fresh food has been introduced or the door has been left open for some time, it is normal for the indicator of temperature to turn WHITE.

OUT 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. 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.
  • Forlargercutsofmeat,sh,orpoultry,placetotherear of the shelves.
  • Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in an airtight container. For best freezing
  • Quality of foods should be fresh.
  • Freeze small quantities of food at a time in order to freeze them quickly.
  • Food should be properly sealed or covered tightly.
  • Place foods in the freezer evenly.
  • Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of freezing food. 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.
  • Food with high-moisture should be stored in airtight container or sealed tightly. Note
  • Evenly place the food on the shelves to allow the cooling airtocirculateefciently.
  • Hot foods should be cooled before storing. Storing hot foods 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 foods or containers; otherwise the foods 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. Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage. Ensure that the food is of the freshest possible quality to maximize the shelf life of perishable foods. The following is a general guide to help promote longer food storage. Power consumption Power consumption of this model is measured according to the international standard of refrigerator performance. If the refrigerator is operated with the accessories (shaded area) taken out, it worksunderthemostenergyefcient condition.
  • The amount of power consumption of this model is measured with these accessories taken out as indicated shaded area.
  • The amount of power consumption of this model is measured under the space dimensions on the right picture. ■ Keep the ventilation space as much as possible around the refrigerator. ■ 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 foods should be cooled before storing. ■ Place the food evenly on the shelves to allow thecoolairtocirculateefciently. Tips for saving energy 60mm90mm 300mm 300mm Storing food (B656)W_1.indb 14 2015/05/22 14:59:3515 Important To prevent cracks on inside surfaces and plastic components, follow these tips.
  • 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 ■ 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. (Only fruit and vegetable shelf is not removable.) ■ 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
  • 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 weigh approximately 3 kg each. Hold themrmlywhenremovefromthecabinetandcarry.
  • Do not drop objects inside the refrigerator or strike the inner wall. This may cause cracks to inner surface. Defrosting Defrosting is automatically operated by a unique energy saving system. 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 qualiedservicepersonnel. Before transporting Wipe up water in the evaporating pan. Before wiping up the water, wait more than 1 hour after pulling out the power plug because refrigeration cycle equipment is extremely hot. (The evaporating pan is located on the rear of the product.) Switching off your refrigerator If you want to switch off your refrigerator for an extended period, remove the foods from the refrigerator and clean the inside thoroughly. Pull out the power plug from the socket and keep all doors open. Care and cleaning Evaporating pan (B656)W_1.indb 15 2015/05/22 14:59:3516 Before calling for service, check the following points. Problem Solution The outside of the cabinet is hot when touching. It is normal. The hot pipe is in the cabinet in order to prevent dew generation. When there is refrigerator noise. It is normal for the refrigerator to make the following sounds.
  • Loud noise is made by the compressor when its operation starts -- Sound becomes quieter after a while.
  • The compressor makes loud noise once a day. -- Operating sound is made immediately after automatic defrost operation.
  • Soundofowinguid(gurglingsound,zzingsound) --Soundofrefrigerantowinginpipes(soundmaybecomelouderfromtimetotime).
  • Cracking or crunching sound, squeaking sound -- Sound produced by expansion and contraction of inner walls and internal parts during cooling. Frost or dew appears inside or outside the refrigerator. This may occur in one of the following cases. Use a wet cloth for wiping frost and a dry cloth for wiping dew.
  • When the ambient humidity is high.
  • When the door is frequently opened and closed.
  • When foods containing plenty of moisture are stored. (Wrapping is required.) The foods in the refrigerator compartment freeze. SJ-XP680G, SJ-XP700G
  • Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with refrigerator temperature control set at 0°C? -- Change the temperature control back to around 3°C.
  • Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with freezer temperature control set at -21°C? -- Change the temperature control back to around -18°C.
  • If ambient temperature is low, foods may freeze even if the refrigerator compartment is set at 6°C. SJ-XE680M, SJ-XE700M
  • Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with refrigerator temperature control set MAX COLDEST? -- Change the temperature control to the other setting.
  • Is the refrigerator operated for a long time with freezer temperature control set MAX COLDEST? -- Change the temperature control to the other setting.
  • If ambient temperature is low, foods may freeze even if the refrigerator compartment is set MIN. Odors in the compartment. •Wrapping is required for the foods with strong odors.
  • Deodorizing unit cannot remove all odors. If you still require service Refer to your nearest service agent approved by SHARP. Before you call for service (B656)W_1.indb 16 2015/05/22 14:59:3517 Product che ANNEX
