SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 3A 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, cut-off 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 threepin 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.

About Discs

The following BD-RE/R, DVD-RW/R and DVD+RW/R discs cannot be played.

Discs on which data has not been recorded cannot be played back.

To avoid inconveniences, please check the playback compatibility of your self-recorded disc before you purchase this BD-player. For maximum playback compatibility of self-recorded BD-discs Sharp recommends that the BDMV/BDAV standards are used. If a playback issue occurs after purchase, please download the latest software version for your BD-player from the Sharp internet page www.sharp.co.uk/page/downloaddrivermanuals (select Drivers then Software Downloads), or ask your Sharp-Dealer.

This BD-player uses the latest technology available at the time of development and cannot guarantee support for future enhancements or changes to the standard.

The following Audio CD discs cannot be played.

Discs containing a signal for the purpose of protecting copyrights (copy control signal) may not be played back with this Player.

About Disc Contents

BD Video

Enjoy BD-specific functions including BONUSVIEW (BD-ROM Profile 1 Version 1.1), such as picture-in-picture, and BD-LIVE (page 27).

For the BD video discs compatible with BONUSVIEW/BDLIVE, you can enjoy additional contents by copying the data from the discs or downloading it via the internet. For instance, this function is capable of playing the original movie as the primary video while playing video commentary from the film director on a small screen as a secondary video.

NOTE

• The available functions differ depending on the disc.

Title, Chapter and Track

Blu-ray discs and DVDs are divided into “Titles” and “Chapters”. If the disc has more than one movie on it, each movie would be a separate “Title”. “Chapters”, on the other hand, are subdivisions of titles. (See Example 1.)

Audio CDs are divided into “Tracks”. You can think of a “Track” as one tune on an Audio CD. (See Example 2.)

Example 1: Blu-ray disc or DVD

Important Information

Disc Precautions

Be Careful of Scratches and Dust

BD, DVD and CD discs are sensitive to dust, fingerprints and especially scratches. A scratched disc may not be able to be played back. Handle discs with care and store them in a safe place.

Proper Disc Storage

Place the disc in the centre of the disc case and store the case and disc upright.

Avoid storing discs in locations subject to direct sunlight, close to heating appliances or in locations of high humidity.

Do not drop discs or subject them to strong vibrations or impacts.

Avoid storing discs in locations where there are large amounts of dust or moisture.

Handling Precautions

If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only) cloth. When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the centre hole toward the outer edge.

Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzene, thinner, static electricity prevention liquids or any other solvent.

Do not touch the surface.

Do not stick paper or adhesive labels to the disc.

If the playing surface of a disc is soiled or scratched, the Player may decide that the disc is incompatible and eject the disc tray, or it may fail to play the disc correctly. Wipe any dirt off the playing surface with a soft cloth.

Cleaning the Pick Up Lens

Never use commercially available cleaning discs. The use of these discs can damage the lens.

Request the nearest service centre approved by SHARP to clean the lens.

Warnings about dew formation

Condensation may form on pick up lens or disc in the following conditions:

Immediately after a heater has been turned on.

In a steamy or very humid room.

When the Player is suddenly moved from a cold environment to a warm one.

When condensation forms:

It becomes difficult for the Player to read the signals on the disc and prevents the Player from operating properly.

To remove condensation:

Take out the disc and leave the Player with the power off until the condensation disappears. Using the Player when there is condensation may cause malfunction.
