Thank you very much for buying this SHARP product. Before using your SHARP refrigerator,
please read this operation manual to ensure that you gain the maximum benet from it.
This refrigerator contains ammable refrigerant (R600a: ■
isobutane) and insulation blowing gas (cyclopentane).
Observe the following rules to prevent ignition and
explosion.
The refrigeration system behind and inside the •
refrigerator contains refrigerant. Do not allow any sharp
objects to come into contact with the refrigeration
system.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to •
accelerate the defrosting process. (This refrigerator has
adopted automatic defrosting system.)
Do not use electric appliances inside the refrigerator.•

the window and air out the room. Then ask a service
agent approved by SHARP for servicing.
This refrigerator should be disposed appropriately. •
Take the refrigerator to a recycling plant for ammable
refrigerant and insulation blowing gases.
Do not store highly volatile and ammable materials such ■
as ether, petrol, propane gas, aerosol cans, adhesive
agents and pure alcohol etc.
These materials are liable to explode.
Dust deposited on the power plug may cause re. Wipe it ■
off carefully.
Do not attempt to change or modify this refrigerator. This ■
may result in re, electric shock or injury.
Do not touch the machinery parts of the automatic ice ■
maker (upper section of the ice storage box). Operating
the ice maker may cause injury.
Ensure that the refrigerator presents no danger to children ■
while being stored for disposal. (e.g. remove the magnetic
door seals to prevent child entrapment.)
WARNING
Attention about Power supply: ■
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.•
Make sure that the power cord has not been damaged •
during installation or moving. If the power plug or cord
is loose, do not insert the power plug. There is a risk of
electric shock or re.
Disconnect from the mains electricity supply by removing •
the mains plug from the electricity supply socket. Do
not remove by pulling the mains lead. This may cause
electric shock or re.
Should the exible supply cord be damaged, it must be •
replaced by a service agent approved by SHARP as a
special cord is required.
Do not touch the compressor unit or its peripheral parts, ■
as they become extremely hot during operation and the
metal edges may cause injury.
Do not touch foods or metal containers in the freezer ■
compartment with your wet hands. This may cause
frostbite.
Do not place bottled and canned drinks in the freezer as ■
they may crack when frozen.
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 objects containing liquid or unsteady objects ■
on top of refrigerator.
This refrigerator is not intended for use by persons ■
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or

Keep adequate ventilation space around the refrigerator.
The gure shows the minimum required space for •
installing the refrigerator. The amount of space
around the refrigerator affects the amount of power
consumption.
Insufcient spacing will decrease cooling efciency •
and increase energy consumption. This may reduce
the life of the unit and void warranty.

NOTE
2 types of ice cube are made at the same time.•
Cube Multifaceted shape
More than one mode cannot be selected at one time. •
The ice making time as shown above is only a rough indication •
at the ambient temperature of 30°C, the temperature
adjustment set to Med, Energy saving turned off, and with no
opening or closing of the doors.
Ice making right after changing the mode
The rst batch of ice cubes made right after changing the •
operating mode does not reect the change in size or clarity.
This is because there are still half-made ice cubes left in the
ice tray when switching to the changed mode. Ice cubes of the
2nd batch or later will reect the mode change.
Ice making takes longer when:
The room temperature is high.•
Less cooling operation, e.g. in winter.•
Many food products are stored.•
Refrigerator is defrosting.•
The door is frequently opened.•
When you restart the ice making operation.•
Energy saving mode is in operation.•
The clarity of clear ice is declined
under the following conditions
Ice making is carried out for the rst time.•
Large amount of food are stored in the other compartments.•

Do not tilt the water tank ●
when carrying as the water
may spill.
5
Set the water tank.
Securely insert the water tank. ●
Ice cubes will not be made
unless the tank is inserted fully.
NOTE
It takes about 24 hours to make the rst set of ice cubes.•
For hygienic reasons, replace the water once a week even •
when there is water remaining in the tank.
When you leave the tank empty, it may sometimes make a •
groaning noise but this is normal.
+
Tank is full at this
position.
Ice is made automatically.
Ice making process indication
Ice cube process indication will change according to the
completion of the ice making as follows.
Indication Condition
Automatic ice making is not operating.•
Within 5 minutes after the water supply.•
Ice making is started.
About two-thirds of the ice making is •
completed.
When the ice storage box is full.•
Ice making is nished. The ice cubes are
dropped to the ice storage box.
(Control panel will light up to show the
completion.)
Water tank is out of water. Pour water into
the water tank.
Even if the water tank is empty, the •
ashing will be turned off by opening and
closing the refrigerator doors. However,
the ashing will restart after a short time.
NOTE
Do not use other than potable water. Do not use hot water •
(heat-resistance:60°C), juice, tea, soda and sports drink etc.
(Dirtying of interior may result.) Malfunction of the ice maker
may occur as a result.
Large size ice may not be made when the water level of the •
water tank is low even if large ice mode is selected.
Do not place the shovel or food on top of the ice cubes. This •
may cause the automatic ice maker to malfunction (damage
of the detection lever, etc.) or the case not being able to be
pulled out. Set the shovel at the designated location.
Protrusions of ice cubes
There are some slits placed in •
the ice tray. Therefore, the ice
cubes coming from the tray will
have protrusions from these slits.
The protrusions may be pointed. •
Be careful when putting the ice
cube directly in your mouth.
White in ice cubes and oating substance
The minerals contained in water may solidify and whiten as •
water freezes. Minerals turn into a state which is insoluble
in water once it freezes, so melting the ice cubes will leave
only white oating substance, but this is normal.
This is more likely to happen when you use hard water •
(e.g.The hardness of the water is 100mg/L or more).
The same thing will happen even if clear ice is set “ON”.•

STORING FOOD
IN
OUT
Refrigeration reduces the rate of food spoilage.
To maximise 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.
Fruit / Vegetables
To minimize moisture loss, fruit and vegetables should be
loosely enclosed in a plastic material (e.g. wrap, bags) and
place in the vegetable crisper and fruit case.
If you store a lot of vegetables, dew may form. This has no
effect on the operation or the performance. Use a dry cloth
to remove the dew.
Dairy Products & Eggs
Most dairy products have a use by date on the outer •
packaging which informs the recommended temperature
and shelf life of the product.
Eggs should be stored in the Egg tray.•
Meats / Fish / Poultry
Place on a plate or dish and cover with paper or plastic •
wrap.
For larger cuts of meat, sh, or poultry, place to the rear of •
the shelves.
Ensure all cooked food is wrapped securely or placed in an •
airtight container.
NOTE
Evenly place the food on the shelves •
to allow the cooling air to circulate
efciently.
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.
Keep the door securely closed.•
Do not place food directly in front of cold air
outlet. This may lead to the food freezing.
For best freezing
Quality of foods should be fresh.•
Freeze small quantities of food at a time to freeze them •
quickly.
Food should be properly sealed, sealed tightly or covered.•
Evenly place the food in the freezer.•
Label bags or containers to keep an inventory of frozen •
food.

WARNING
Unplug the refrigerator rst to prevent electric shock. ■
Do not splash water directly on the outer cabinet or ■
the interior. This may lead to rusting and deterioration
of the electrical insulation.
IMPORTANT
To prevent cracking on inside surfaces and plastic
components, follow these tips.
Wipe any food oils adhered to plastic components.•
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, cracking of plastic parts can result.
Wipe any spills from the refrigerator immediately as acid •
or alkaline in the food can cause cracking and staining of
