WHEN POWER FAILURE OCCURS

This air conditioner has a back-up function in case of power failure during operation. After power recovery, the unit will automatically restart in the same settings which were before the power failure, except for timer operation settings.

If the timers are set, they will need to be reset after power recovery.

PREHEATING FUNCTION

In the HEAT operation, the indoor fan might not start for two to five minutes after the unit is turned on to prevent the air from circulating before the unit is sufficiently warmed up.

DE-ICING FUNCTION

l When ice forms on the heat exchanger in the outdoor unit during the HEAT operation, an

automatic de-icer operates for about 5 to and outside fans stop operating.

A hissing sound may be heard originating from the indoor unit during de-icing.

After de-icing is completed, the unit automatically resumes operation in the HEAT mode.

minutes to remove the ice. During de-icing, the inside

A built-in protective device might prevent the unit from operating when used out of this range.

Condensation might form on the air outlet when the unit operates continuously in the COOL or the DRY mode when the humidity is over 80 percent.

HEATING EFFICIENCY

The unit employs a heat pump that draws heat from the outside air and releases it into the room.

The outside air temperature therefore greatly affects the heating efficiency.

l If the outside temperature is unusually low, you may require additional heating to maintain the

desired room temperature.

On very cold days, it may take some time to heat the entire room, you may need to use the “full

power” feature to speed up heating.

Below are some simple ways to save energy when you use your air conditioner. SET THE CORRECT TEMPERATURE

Setting the temperature 1

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.

Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however tracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collection and player.

Volume control

The sound level at a given volume setting depends on a combination of speaker efficiency, location and various other factors.

It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels, which occur whilst turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or whilst continually listening at high volumes.

l TAPE

Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the

non-label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do not mark this surface.

Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and ex-

cessive moisture.

Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or

water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the radius.

Cassette tape

For playback, use normal or low-noise tape for the best

sound. (Metal or For recording, use only normal tape.

Do not use C-120 tapes, tapes with large diameter

or poor-quality tapes, as they may cause malfunctions.

Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment,

tighten the slack with a pen or pencil.

Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental

recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab will protect the corresponding side from being erased. Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record again.

Internal care

Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound

and tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moist-

ened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl

alcohol. After long use, the deck’s heads and capstans may become

magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser’s instructions carefully before use.

External care

Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted

soap solution, then wipe with a dry cloth.

Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other chemi-

cals.
