Dear SHARP Customer

“SHARP” consumer electronic products have established a worldwide reputation for unsurpassed quality and precision manufacturing techniques since 1924, when the famous SHARP trademark first appeared on a radio receiver.

Your new SHARP TELEVIDEO uses the very latest electronic circuitry and engineering advances for the best possible performance.

Given proper care, your new TELEVIDEO will provide many years of entertainment for the entire family. Please read the following instructions before operating this set.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug must be used.

Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cutoff the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER: The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a safe manner.

Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue : Neutral

Brown : Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.

Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three pin plug.

Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.

The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead and not simply over the lead wires. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

In the unlikely event of this equipment requiring repair during the guarantee period, you will need to provide proof of date of purchase to the repairing company.

Please keep your invoice or receipt, which is supplied at the time or purchase.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR NEW TELEVIDEO, PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THIS OPERATION MANUAL AND THEN SAVE IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. IT WILL BE USEFUL IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WHEN OPERATING YOUR TELEVIDEO IN THE FUTURE.

Location and Handling

1.It is dangerous to use this new set if:

This set begins to smoke, smell, or make strange sounds. If this happens, immediately switch off the power, unplug the power cord and contact the nearest authorized service centre.

2.Never remove the back of the cabinet.

Do not remove the back of the cabinet. Touching high voltage parts inside the cabinet can result in electric shock and/or damage to the unit. For service and adjustment inside the cabinet, call a qualified dealer or service centre approved by Sharp.

3.Avoid exposing this set to

direct sunlight, dust, heat sources or moisture.

Do not place this set in a location where it is exposed to direct sunlight, dust, heat sources, high humidity, kitchen smoke, etc., as these may cause malfunctions.

4.Select a well-ventilated location.

The cabinet has air vents to allow heat to escape. Obstructing these air vents may result in malfunction or, in some cases, fire. Always observe the following guidelines:

Keep this set 10 cm or more away from walls.

Do not place this set in a confined spaces with poor ventilation.

5.Handling the power cord

Using a damaged power cord, or one with the bare wires exposed, could cause fire or result in electric shock. Always observe the following guidelines:

When unplugging from the AC mains, never pull the cord. Always grip the plug when unplugging the power cord.

Never place this set itself, furniture, rugs, or other heavy objects on the power cord.

If the power cord must pass near a heater, make sure the cord is far enough from the heater that the cord under no circumstances will melt or come in contact with the heater.

6.When the set will not be used

for an extended period of time

If you go away on holiday or otherwise will be absent for a long time, as a safety precaution, unplug the power cord from the AC mains or press the power button () on the set to turn it OFF.

7. D o n o t p l a c e o b j e c t s containing liquids on top of the set.

Do not place any objects containing water or other liq-

uids on this set.

• If liquid enters this set, it can cause malfunction, electrical shock or fire. If liquid should enter the cabinet, unplug the power cord from the AC mains and contact the nearest service centre approved by Sharp.

8.Never insert objects into the TV set.

Do not insert or drop metallic

or inflammable objects into this set through the air vents, as this can cause serious damage, electrical shock, or possibly fire.

9. Keep the set and tapes away

from strongly magnetic objects.

10. To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top of or near the cabinet.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND PRECAUTIONS

Location

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

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

Power

Your TELEVIDEO operates on 220 ~ 240 Volts, 50 Hertz (normal household current) and has a moulded 13 AMP fused plug fitted.

Other

Recording and playback of any material may require consent. Please refer particularly to the provisions of the Copyright Act 1956, the Dramatic and Musical Performers Protection Act 1958, the Performers Protection Acts 1963 and 1972, and to any subsequent statutory enactment and orders.

If the set will not be used for a long period, such as during a holiday, unplug the set from the wall outlet to economize power.

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

If you listen to AM broadcasts, turn the TELEVIDEO off. AM broadcast signals may not be received due to the interference of the TELEVIDEO.

Moisture Condensation (Dew)

Rapid temperature changes and storage or operation in extremely high humidity conditions may cause “dew” to condense inside the cabinet. Dew can cause serious damage to your tapes and the video heads. To prevent this, turn the power switch on and wait for a few hours for this set to warm up and dry before attempting playback.

This is particularly important before loading a cassette for the first time after purchasing this set.

Antenna Connections

To enjoy a clearer picture, we recommend that you use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of types of connection that are used for coaxial and feeder cables:

(1)If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable, with a standard DIN45325 plug (IEC169-2), plug it into the antenna jack at the rear of the set.

(2)If your outdoor antenna uses a 300ohm twin-lead flat feeder, change this for a 300-ohm to 75ohm impedance converter and plug it into the antenna jack at the rear of the set.
