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, using 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.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT WARNING: EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO WET LOCATIONS.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF

ELECTRIC SHOCK,

DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE

PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with arrowhead within a triangle is intended to tell the user that parts inside the product are a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to tell the user that important operating and servicing instructions are in the papers with the appliance.

“Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.”

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 this TV set.

Power

Your TV operates on 120 Volts, 60 Hertz (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 will not 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 either the TV or the radio.

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

LBefore using the television, prepare the Remote Control

To use the remote control, insert batteries first.

Insert the batteries

Pull up

 

Battery

Cover

With your thumbnail, pull up the slit as indicated by the arrow to remove the back cover. Insert two batteries (size “AA”). Be sure to match the battery e/d terminals with the e/d 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). The F-type connector should be finger tightened only.

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).

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.

“A” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels using the TV’s channel keys.

“B” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/ descrambler using the converter’s channel keys.

REMARQUE :

Les boutons ombrés de la télécommande illustrés ci-dessus brillent dans l’obscurité lorsque la télécommande a été placée sous une ampoule fluorescente ou toute autre source lumineuse.

Le matériau phosphorescent n’est absolument pas toxique ou radioactif. Il peut donc être utilisé en toute sécurité.

Le degré d’illumination variera en fonction de l’intensité de la source d’éclairage.

Le degré d’illumination diminuera avec le temps, en fonction de la température.

Le temps requis pour charger les touches phosphorescentes dépendra de l’éclairage environnant.

Les rayons directs du soleil et les luminaires fluorescents constituent les meilleures sources de chargement des touches phosphorescentes.

Stereo broadcasts

Live television transmission of sports, shows, concerts, etc. can be received in dynamic stereo sound.

SAP broadcasts

Television broadcast can be received with either MAIN or SAP sound.

MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack. (Monaural or stereo where available.)

SAP sound: Second language, supplementary commentaries, etc. (SAP sound is monaural.)

LIf stereo sound is difficult to hear.

You can obtain clearer sound by manually switching to fixed monaural mode.

NOTE:

Once MONO mode is selected, the TV sound remains monaural even if the TV set receives a stereo broadcast. You must switch the mode back to STEREO if you want to hear stereo sound again.

Selecting MTS while in the INPUT mode does not change the type of sound; in this case, sound is determined by the video source.

Closed Caption

LHOW TO SET CLOSED CAPTION

Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. “Closed Caption” is a system which allows you to view conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and home videos as subscript on your TV screen as shown on the right.

Not all the programs and videos will offer closed caption. 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 subscripts dialogues 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 has 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 set.

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

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

Parent Control (V-CHIP Operation)

L 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.
