Dear Sharp Customer

Thank you for buying SHARP Colour Television Receiver. To ensure proper operation, please read this manual carefully. After reading, keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

Safety Precautions

To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not use the TV set in an excessively damp place.

Position the TV set out of direct sunlight and away from heat, as high temperatures can damage the cabinet, CRT, or other electronic parts.

Do not cover the ventilation holes at the back of the TV set, this can cause fire or other serious problems. Leave an adequate open space behind the TV set for good ventilation.

Do not place this set in confined spaces, such as a bookshelf or built-in case.

Never remove the back of the cabinet, as there is high voltage inside the TV set.

Do not place this television equipment on an unstable cart, stand or table. The television equipment may fall, causing serious injury to a child or an adult and serious damage to the equipment. Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the television equipment.

Never insert or drop any metallic or inflammable objects into the ventilation holes of the TV set, this can cause fire, electrical shock, or electrical failure. Do not place a flower vase or anything else containing liquid on the TV set, as liquid spilt on the TV set can cause serious problems.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately if the TV set begins to make unusual noises or give off smoke or an odd smell, then call our service centre for service.

‰ 1

Safety Precautions (continued)

Television equipment and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.

Do place the TV set onto an even stand, table or track which size is bigger than the TV set. If the TV set is put onto a smaller size or uneven stand, table or track may cause the TV cabinet distort. Do not put or insert anything between TV set and the stand, table or track.

Antenna Connection

• The following is a brief explanation of the types of connection that are used for coaxial cables:

(1) If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial

cable, then the connection to the TV is via DIN45325 plug (shown at right). Plug this into the antenna jack at the rear of the TV set.

(2) If your outdoor antenna uses a 300-ohm

twin-lead flat feeder, change this for a 300-ohm to 75-ohm impedance converter and plug it into the antenna jack at the rear of the TV set.

• Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet before connecting the antenna to the rear of the TV set.
