Welcome to the SHARP Family. We are pleased that you are now the owner of a SHARP Color Television – built for outstanding quality, reliability and performance. Every SHARP Color Television set is tuned and adjusted for proper color and sound, and has passed through the most stringent quality control tests at the factory. We have prepared this OPERATION MANUAL so that you may adjust the picture and color to your personal viewing preference. We sincerely hope that you receive the greatest satisfaction and enjoyment from your new SHARP Color Television set for years to come. Please read these instructions carefully, and keep them handy for your future reference.

IMPORTANT

To aid reporting in case of loss or theft, please record the TV’s model and serial numbers in the space provided. The numbers are located at the rear of the TV.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

There are two important reasons for prompt warranty registration of your new SHARP television set. Use the REGISTRATION CARD packed in with the set.

FIRST – WARRANTY

This is to assure that you will immediately receive the full consumer benefit of the parts, service and labor warranty applicable to your purchase.

SECOND – CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY ACT

To assure that you will promptly receive any safety notification on inspection, modification or recall that SHARP may be required to give under the 1972 Consumer Product Safety Act. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE IMPORTANT “LIMITED WARRANTY” CLAUSE ON THE LAST PAGE.

WHAT IS ENERGY STAR

TVs and VCRs use energy both when they are on and when they are off. Americans spend more than $1 billion a year on energy consumed by TVs and VCRs when they are not in use. The new ENERGY STAR® models will reduce that energy “leakage” by up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than $500 million 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 TVs and VCRs with ENERGY STAR® models, it would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by five million tons every year — equivalent to eliminating the pollution from more than one million cars.

By using ENERGY STAR® 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.

WARNING:

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (Continued)

13. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television equipment.

14. If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

NEC—NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE

15. For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.

16. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or electric shock.

18. Never push objects of any kind into this television equipment through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the television equipment.

19. Do not attempt to service this television equipment yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

20. Unplug this television equipment from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: A. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. B. If liquid has been spilled into the television equipment. C. If the television equipment has been exposed to rain or water. D. If the television equipment does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust

only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the television equipment to normal operation. E. If the television equipment has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. F. When the television equipment exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for

Before Operating Your Television

Location

• For normal operation, your TV should be located in an area of the room where cool adequate ventilation is provided. Do not place the back of the television set in a place where free airflow will be restricted.

• Any magnetic force may disturb the color picture. Make sure that magnets, electric clocks, toys using magnets or any other magnetic substance, such as iron are kept well away from the TV set.

Power

Your TV operates on 120 Volts, 60 Hz (normal household current) and has a polarized plug. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it fail to fit, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the safety feature of the polarized plug.

Note:

• If the set is not going to be used for a long period, such as during a vacation, unplug the set from the wall outlet to economize power. (If the TV set is plugged in, a slight current still flows, even with the POWER BUTTON in the OFF position.)

• Lines and other noise may appear in TV broadcast images when an FM tuner or radio is located near the TV and both radio and TV broadcasts are being received. Should such noise appear, turn off the radio.

• If you are listening to an AM broadcast, turn the TV off. AM broadcast signals may not be received due to interference from the TV.

Before using the television, prepare the Remote Control

•

To use the remote control, insert batteries first.

Inserting the batteries

Pull up

Battery Cover

• With your thumbnail, pull up the slit as indicated by the arrow to remove the battery cover. Insert two batteries (size “AA”). Be sure to match the battery m/, terminals with the m/, marks inside the compartment.

Antenna Connections

Antennas

• The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.

The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems:

1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).

2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm ADAPTOR (not supplied).

When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten F-type connector with tools. If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set. (The breaking of internal circuit, etc.)

CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION

• A 75 ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75 ohm cable to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR.

• Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. (Set your TV on channel 3 or 4. Typically one of these channels is used. If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below. Please note: RF switch equipped with position A/B (not provided) is required.

How to set CLOSED CAPTION

•

• Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. “Closed Caption” is a system which allows conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and home videos to appear as captions on the TV screen (see the illustration).

• Not all the programs and videos will offer closed captioning. Please look for the “ ” symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.

• Closed Caption broadcast can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are available, CH1 and CH2.

The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and commentaries of TV dramas and news programs while allowing clear view of the picture. The TEXT mode displays over the picture other various information (such as TV program schedule, weather forecast, etc.) that is independent of the TV programs.

Note:

• If a broadcast contains CLOSED CAPTION and the MUTE button is pressed, the set enters CAPTION mode automatically. Pressing MUTE again will return the set to its previous condition.

• Closed Caption may malfunction (white blocks, strange characters, etc.) if signal conditions are poor or if there are problems at the broadcast source. This does not necessarily indicate a problem with your TV.

• If any button is pressed to call up the ON SCREEN DISPLAY while viewing a CLOSED CAPTION broadcast, the closed captions will disappear momentarily.

• If no TEXT broadcast is being received while viewing in the TEXT mode, the screen may become dark and blank for some programs. Should this occur, switch the Closed Caption mode to “OFF”.

Parent Control (V-CHIP Operation)

H V-CHIP

• This function allows you to restrict TV programs and also allows you to control TV usage based on FCC data. This function is to prevent your children from watching violence or sexual scenes that may be harmful.

• Restriction of TV programs includes two characters that contain information about the program’s MPAA rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. MPAA is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and contents.

• Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines you should adjust both for complete control.

Example 1.1 : Age Based setting

Clear Vs (block) from each "AGE" box for all ratings. This will automatically unblock everything.

Example 1.2 : Age Based setting

For “TV-G” put a V in the "AGE" box. This will automatically block the higher age ratings “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA” as well as “TV-G”. Please note the content ratings “D”, “L”, “S”, “V” are automatically blocked as well.

Example 2.1 : Content Based setting

If you choose to unblock every content-based items (“D”, “L”, “S”, “V”), clear the V (block) from each “AGE” box of “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TVMA”.

Example 2.2 : Content Based setting

Put a V in the box corresponding to “TV-PG” (row) and “V (Violence)” (column). This will automatically block the “V” boxes for “TV-14” and “TV-MA”. Setting only “TV-PG-V”, “TV-14-V” or “TV-MA-V” will not block all programs rated “TV-PG”, “TV-14” or “TV-MA”.

Note:

• Content ratings can be modified but only in the combinations indicated by V in the table on page 16.

• Changing a lower age rating’s content setting to “BLOCK” automatically changes the same higher age rating’s content setting to “BLOCK” regardless of their previous settings.

• Changing a lower rating’s “AGE” setting to “BLOCK” automatically changes all higher ratings to “BLOCK” regardless of their previous settings.

• For “TV-Y7”, “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA”, if you clear the V in the “AGE” box (unblock) you can still change settings based on content.

• Clearing a higher rating’s age or content setting will not clear lower settings. Make sure that all undesired boxes are blocked.

Existen dos razones importantes para registrar dentro del plazo límite la garantía de su nuevo televisor SHARP, mediante la TARJETA DE REGISTRO incluida con el aparato.

PRIMERA – GARANTÍA

Garantiza al cliente la recepción inmediata de todas las prestaciones de consumidor en cuanto a piezas, servicio técnico y mano de obra aplicable a su adquisición.

SEGUNDA – ACTA DE SEGURIDAD DE PRODUCTOS DE CONSUMIDOR

Con el fin de garantizar al cliente la recepción puntual de cualquier notificación de seguridad sobre inspección, modificación o cancelación que se le pueda solicitar a SHARP bajo el Acta de seguridad de productos de consumidor de 1972. LEA CUIDADOSAMENTE LA CLÁUSULA “GARANTÍA LIMITADA” DE LA ÚLTIMA PÁGINA.

¿QUÉ ES ENERGY STAR®?

Los televisores y las videograbadoras utilizan energía cuando están encendidos ó apagados. Los norteamericanos gastan más de 1 billón de dólares al año en la energía que consumen televisores y videograbadoras cuando no se encuentran en uso. Los nuevos modelos ENERGY STAR ® reducen esa “fuga” de energía hasta en un 75 por ciento. Esto implica más de 500 millones de dólares al año en ahorro de energía para los consumidores.

El ahorro de energía ayuda a reducir el consumo de combustibles fósiles y por tanto la contaminación por dióxido de carbono que contribuye al calentamiento global. Si cada familia norteamericana sustituyera sus televisores y videograbadoras por modelos ENERGY STAR ®, se reducirían las emisiones de dióxido de carbono en cinco millones de toneladas cada año (equivalente a eliminar la contaminación procedente de más de un millón de automóviles). El uso de productos ENERGY STAR® permite reducir el monto de las facturas de energía eléctrica y consumir menos energía. De este modo ahorrará dinero y ayudará a proteger el medio ambiente.

PRECAUCIÓN : Lea por favor todas estas instrucciones antes de poner en funcionamiento

su televisor, y guárdelas para poder utilizarlas en el futuro.

La energía eléctrica permite realizar muchas funciones útiles. Este aparato ha sido diseñado y fabricado para garantizar su seguridad física. Sin embargo, UNA UTILIZACIÓN INAPROPIADA PODRÍA SER LA CAUSA DE DESCARGAS ELÉCTRICAS O INCENDIOS. Para mantener el buen funcionamiento de este equipo y evitar problemas, siga las normas básicas indicadas a continuación cuando lo instale, utilice o repare.

1. Desenchufe el televisor del tomacorriente antes de limpiarlo.

2. No utilice líquidos ni aerosoles de limpieza. Para limpiar el televisor utilice un paño húmedo.

3. No utilice accesorios que no los recomiende el fabricante del televisor porque podrían causar peligros.

INFORMATIONS IMPORTANTES

Deux raisons importantes d’enregistrer rapidement la garantie de votre nouveau téléviseur SHARP à l’aide de la carte d’enregistrement (REGISTRATION CARD) incluse dans le colis :

LA PREMIERE – LA GARANTIE

Grâce à elle, vous obtiendrez immédiatement les avantages client concernant la garantie des pièces, du service et des travaux applicable à votre achat.

LA DEUXIEME – LA LOI SUR LA SECURITE DU PRODUIT DE CONSOMMATION (CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY ACT)

Grâce à elle, vous recevrez rapidement un avis de sécurité lors du contrôle, de la modification ou du rappel de votre produit que SHARP peut être amené à fournir conformément à la loi de 1972 sur la sécurité du produit de consommation. LISEZ ATTENTIVEMENT LE PARAGRAPHE «GARANTIE LIMITEE» DE LA DERNIÈRE PAGE.

ENERGY STAR®: QU’EST-CE QUEC’EST

Les téléviseurs et les magnétoscopes utilisent de l’énergie lorsqu’ils sont allumés et éteints. Les Américains dépensent plus d’1 milliard de dollars par an en énergie consommée par les téléviseurs et les magnétoscopes une fois éteints. Les nouveaux modèles ENERGY STAR® réduisent jusqu’à 75 % ce gaspillage d’énergie. Ce qui représente finalement plus de 500 millions de dollars par an d’économie d’énergie pour les consommateurs.

Ces économies aident à réduire la combustion des énergies fossiles et la pollution au gaz carbonique associée, qui contribue au réchauffement de la planète. Si toutes les familles américaines remplaçaient leurs téléviseurs et leurs magnétoscopes par des modèles ENERGY STAR®, les émissions de gaz carbonique seraient réduites de cinq millions de tonnes par an — ce qui reviendrait à éliminer la pollution émise par plus d’un million de voitures.

En utilisant les produits ENERGY STAR®, vous économiserez également de l’argent sur vos factures d’électricité et vous utiliserez moins d’énergie. Un peu de bon sens économique au profit de notre environnement !

AVERTISSEMENT:

ATTENTION : POUR REDUIRE LE RISQUE

D’ELECTROCUTION,

NE RETIREZ PAS LE CAPOT (OU LE PANNEAU ARRIERE).

L’APPAREIL NE CONTIENT AUCUNE PIECE A ENTRETENIR

3. N’utilisez pas d’accessoires déconseillés par le fabricant de matériel vidéo, car ils impliquent des risques.

4. N’utilisez pas cette télévision à proximité d’eau — par exemple, près d’une baignoire, d’un lavabo, d’un évier ou d’un bac à laver, dans une cave humide ou près d’une piscine, etc.

5. Ne placez pas cet équipement sur un chariot, un support ou une table instable. La télévision peut tomber et provoquer de graves lésions à toute personne et causer de sérieux dommages à l’équipement. Utilisez uniquement un support ou un chariot recommandé par le fabricant ou vendu avec la télévision.

6. L’ensemble télévision-chariot doit être déplacé délicatement. Les arrêts brusques, une force excessive et des surfaces inégales peuvent renverser l’ensemble.

7. L’installation au mur ou sur une tablette doit être réalisée conformément aux instructions du fabricant et à l’aide d’un kit de montage approuvé par ce dernier.

8. Les fentes et les ouvertures du châssis à l’arrière ou dans la partie inférieure sont prévus pour la ventilation. Pour garantir un fonctionnement fiable de la télévision et pour la protéger de toute surchauffe, ces ouvertures ne doivent être ni obturées, ni recouvertes. La télévision ne doit pas être placée dans un endroit encastré tel qu’une bibliothèque, sauf si une ventilation adéquate est prévue.

9. Les ouvertures ne doivent jamais être recouvertes par un chiffon ou autre et celles de la partie inférieure ne doivent jamais être obturées si vous placez la télévision sur un lit, un sofa, un tapis ou toute surface similaire. Cette télévision ne doit être placée ni à proximité d’un radiateur ou d’un registre de chaleur, ni dessus.

10. Cette télévision doit être alimentée uniquement par le type d’alimentation électrique indiqué sur l’étiquette. Si vous n’êtes pas sûr du type d’alimentation de votre domicile, consultez votre revendeur de télévision ou la compagnie d’électricité locale (EDF en France).

Pour la télévision conçue pour fonctionner sur batterie, reportez-vous au mode d’emploi.

11. Du point de vue de la sécurité, la télévision est équipée d’une fiche polarisée à 2 fils (une lame plus importante que l’autre). La fiche polarisée à 2 fils ne pénètre dans la prise électrique que dans un seul sens.

Si la fiche ne correspond pas à la prise, demandez à votre électricien de remplacer la prise, elle doit être obsolète. Ne modifiez pas la fiche et ne désactivez pas cette fonction de sécurité.

12. Ne posez rien sur le cordon d’alimentation. Ne placez pas la télévision dans un emplacement où le cordon d’alimentation est susceptible d’être endommagé par le passage répété de personnes.

15. Pour tout ajout de protection à votre télévision en cas de foudre ou lorsque elle reste en veille et inutilisée pendant de longues périodes, débranchez-la et déconnectez l’antenne. Vous éviterez ainsi des dommages à votre équipement suite à la foudre et des poussées de tension.

16. Un système d’antenne extérieure ne doit pas être situé à proximité de lignes aériennes ou d’autres groupes électrogènes ou circuits électriques ou dans des emplacements où l’antenne pourrait tomber sur ce type de lignes ou circuits. Lors de l’installation d’un système d’antenne extérieure, faites extrêmement attention à ne pas entrer en contact avec ces lignes ou circuits, car cela pourrait vous être fatal.

17. Ne surchargez pas les prises et les prolongateurs de ligne afin d’éviter tout risque d’incendie ou d’électrocution.

18. N’introduisez jamais d’objets à travers les fentes du châssis, car ils pourraient entrer en contact avec des points de tension dangereux ou des pièces court-circuitées et provoquer ainsi un incendie ou une électrocution. Ne répandez jamais de liquides sur la télévision.

19. N’essayez pas de réparer vous-même votre télévision. L’ouverture ou le retrait des capots peut vous exposer à une tension dangereuse ou à d’autres risques. Confiez toutes les opérations de maintenance à un personnel qualifié.

20. Lorsque vous êtes confronté aux situations suivantes, débranchez la télévision et confiez toutes les opérations de maintenance à un personnel qualifié :

A. lorsque le cordon d’alimentation ou la fiche est endommagé ou effiloché ; B. si du liquide a été répandu sur/dans la télévision ; C. si la télévision a été exposée à la pluie ou à l’eau ; D. si la télévision ne fonctionne pas normalement même en respectant le mode d’emploi. Réglez

uniquement les commandes abordées par le mode d’emploi. Des réglages inappropriés d’autres commandes peuvent occasionner des dommages et nécessiteront ensuite, dans la plupart des cas, une intervention plus importante d’un technicien qualifié pour que la télévision fonctionne

normalement ; E. si la télévision a été renversée ou que le châssis est endommagé ; F. lorsque la télévision présente une altération visible des performances — cela indique un besoin de

maintenance.

21. Pour toute maintenance ou réparation de la télévision, demandez au technicien de réaliser des contrôles de sécurité classiques afin de déterminer si la télévision est en bon état de marche.

22. Lorsqu’un remplacement de pièces se révèle nécessaire, veillez à ce que le technicien utilise des pièces de rechange spécifiées par le fabricant et qu’elles aient les mêmes caractéristiques que la pièce d’origine. Des remplacements non autorisés peuvent occasionner un incendie, une électrocution ou d’autres risques.
