a)When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,

b)If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product,

c)If the product has been exposed to rain or water,

d)If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation,

e)If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way, and

f)When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.

ENERGY STAR® Program Information

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, SHARP has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. ENERGY STAR® is a U.S. registered mark.

WHY PURCHASE ENERGY STAR® LABELED PRODUCTS?

Many Electrical /Electronic Products use energy both when they are on and when they are off. Americans spend more than $3 billion a year on energy consumed by home electronic products when they are not in use. The new ENERGY STAR® labeled models will reduce that energy “leakage” by up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than $1 billion a year in energy savings for consumers.

The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the related carbon dioxide pollution that contributes to global warming. If every American family replaced their electronic equipment with ENERGY STAR® labeled models, it would reduce air pollution equivalent to eliminating more than two million cars.

By using ENERGY STAR® labeled products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy.

That makes good economic sense and it’s good for our environment.

To comply with the ENERGY STAR® standards mentioned above, please cancel the demonstration mode, as described on page12.

"Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well-venti- lated area and ensure that there is at least 4" (10 cm) of free space along the sides, top and back of the equipment.

4" (10 cm)	4" (10 cm)	4" (10 cm)
		4" (10 cm)

" Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.

" Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.

"Do not place anything on top of the unit.

"Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C) or to extremely low temperatures.

"If your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet. Plug the AC power cord back in, and then turn on your system.

"In case of an electrical storm, unplug the

unit for safety.

" Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it from the AC outlet, as pulling the cord can damage internal wires.

" Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service facility.

"This unit should only be used within the range of 41°F - 95°F (5°C - 35°C).

Warning:

The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than that which is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing damage. SHARP will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than that which is specified.

! Volume control

The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker efficiency, location and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels, which occurs while turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or while continually listening at high volumes.
