WARNING
1. This refrigerator is airtight. TO PREVENT
FATAL ACCIDENTS TO CHILDREN, please
completely remove the door prior to discard-
ing the refrigerator.
2. Highly volatile and inflammable materials
such as ether, petrol, propane gas, adhe-
sive agents and pure alcohol etc. are liable
to explode. Do not store these materials in
the refrigerator.
3. To prevent damage to the outer cabinet,
avoid contact with lacquer, and paint, etc.
4. 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.
5. If any areas adjacent to electrical compo-
nents have to be cleaned, unplug the re-
frigerator first to prevent electric shock, then
wipe the area with a dry cloth.
6. Should electrical components be acciden-
tally immersed in water, unplug the refrig-
erator, dry the parts and contact your near-
est service agent approved by SHARP.
7. This refrigerator is designed solely for the
purpose of storing foodstuff for domestic use
in accordance with the instructions given in
this manual. Using the refrigerator for other
purposes might be harmful to persons or
property.
8. This refrigerator is not suitable for the stor-
age of materials requiring precise tempera-
tures. Deterioration of these materials will
be dangerous.
9. Dust deposited on the power plug may
cause fire. Wipe it off carefully.
10. When replacing the lamp bulb, unplug the
refrigerator first to prevent electric shock.
11. Do not attempt to change or modify this re-
frigerator. This may result in fire, electric
shock or injury.
12. Information regarding disposal of the
appliance
1. Do not touch the compressor unit, as it
can become extremely hot during opera-
tion.
2. If the power supply is accidentally discon-
nected, please wait for at least 5 minutes
before re-connecting the power, as back
pressure in the compressor may trip the
overload relay.
3. Avoid removing food from the freezer with
your bare hands. Directly touching prod-
ucts stored at sub-zero temperatures can
result in frostbite.
4. To prevent accidental power disconnec-
tion, plug the refrigerator directly to the
source. Do not use a double adaptor as
loss of power could lead to the spoiling of
the stored food.
5. Do not place bottles in the freezer as they
may crack when frozen.
6. Keep the door securely closed. If the door
is left ajar, the controlled inner tempera-
ture will rise, resulting in food spoilage and
increase in electricity costs.
7. Do not install the refrigerator in a damp
or wet location as this may cause dam-
age to the insulation and a leak. Conden-
sation may also build on the outer cabi-
net and cause rust.
8. When installing or moving the refrigera-
tor, make sure that you do not nip or kink
the power cord. Damage of the power
cord may cause electric shock or fire.
9. Do not use this refrigerator when the
power cord or plug is damaged, or the
outlet attachment is loose, as they may
cause electric shock or fire.
10. Disconnect from the mains electricity sup-
ply by removing the mains plug from the
electricity supply socket. Do not remove
by pulling the mains lead. This may cause
electric shock or fire.
11. Make sure that you leave adequate ven-
tilation space around the refrigerator to
prevent the compressor from overheat-
ing and stopping. Please follow the in-
structions given for installation.
CAUTION
Flammable insulation blowing gases should
be disposed appropriately. Take the cabinet
and doors to a recycling plant for flammable
insulation blowing gases.
