Important Safeguards
CAUTION
All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is
operated, and should be retained for future reference.
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This unit has been engineered
and manufactured to assure your personal safety. Improper use can result in
potential electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards,
observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing.
1
Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions
should be adhered to.
2
Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.
3
Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for
example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
4
Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is
recommended by the manufacturer.
● An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause
the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
5
Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling
only as recommended by the manufacturer.
6
Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does
not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be
situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation
openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that
may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
7
Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
8
Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of
the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.
9
Power-Cord Protection - Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the appliance.
10
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
11
Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.
12
Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver ,
be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.

Precautions
■
General
●
Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated area and ensure
that there is at least 4" (10 cm) of free space along the sides and back. There must
also be a minimum of 4" (10 cm) of free space on the top of the unit.
4" (10 cm)
● Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibra-
tion.
● Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong mag-
netic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/
electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles,
etc.) which generates electrical noise.
● Do not place anything on top of the unit.
● Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures
higher than 140°F (60°C) or to extreme low temperatures.
● If your system does not work properly, disconnect
the AC power cord from the AC outlet. Plug the AC
power cord back in, and then turn on your system.
● In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for
safety.
● Hold the AC power plug by the head when remov-
ing it from the AC outlet, as pulling the cord can
damage internal wires.
● Do not remove the outer cover, as this may re-
sult in electric shock. Refer internal service to
your local SHARP service facility.
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 may 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.

■
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 occur while turning the
unit on with the volume control setting up high, or while continually listening at high
volumes.
■
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 .
● Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label side from which
signals are read.
Do not mark this surface.
● Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive 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 center, along the radius.
■
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
LED 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 LED with a soft cloth
before operating the unit.

There are two sounds from the subwoofer.
One comes out from the bass reflex duct and
the other rebounds from the wall behind the
speaker.
Bi-amp system:
This product drives the built-in subwoofer unit and the speaker unit composed of the
tweeter and woofer for mid-to-high range frequencies with independent amplifiers which
have individual frequency characteristics.
By amplifying separately the two frequency bands, clearer sound is achieved.
