Warning:
The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product
with a higher voltage other than that which is specified is dangerous and ma y result in
a fire or 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.
10 cm (4")
Volume control
„
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker efficiency, location,
and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels,
which occurs whilst turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or
whilst continually listening at high volumes.
Condensation
„
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may
cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmitter on the
remote control.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.
If this happens, leave the power on with no disc
(or cassette) in the unit until normal playback is
possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter with a soft cloth before operating the unit.
Care of compact discs
„
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking 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.
z
Do not write on either side of the disc, par ticularly the non-label side from which
signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
z
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive moisture.
z
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.

Drive one screw through the
wall for each speaker.
z
Make sure that both the screw
and the wall can support a load
of 20 kg (45 lbs.).

and then into the wall socket. If you plug in the unit first, it will enter
the demonstration mode.
Notes:
z
Unplug the AC power lead from the AC socket if the unit will not be in use for a prolonged period of time.
z
Never use a power lead other than the one supplied. Use of a power lead
other than the one supplied may cause an electric shock or fire.
AC Plug Adaptor
In areas (or countries) where an AC socket as shown in illustration is used, connect the unit using the AC plug adaptor supplied with the unit, as illustrated. The AC
plug adaptor is not included in areas where the AC wall socket and AC power plug
can be directly connected (see illustration ).

„
z
Before plugging in or unplugging the headphones, reduce
the volume.
z
Be sure your headphones have a 3.5 mm (1/8") diameter
plug and are between 16 ohms and 50 ohms impedance.
The recommended impedance is 32 ohms.

Setting the FM/AM span selector
„
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has established that member countries should maintain either a 100 kHz or a 50 kHz interval between broadcasting frequencies of FM stations and 10 kHz or 9 kHz for AM station. The illustration shows
the 50/9 kHz zones (regions 1 and 3), and the 100/10 kHz zone (region 2).
Before using the unit, set the SPAN SELECTOR switch (on the rear panel) to the
interval (span) of your area.
