your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company. For product intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.

16)Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17)Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any
kind into this product through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock.
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
appliance to dripping or splashing. No objects filled with
liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the
apparatus.

18)Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from
the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:

a) When the AC cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen

into the product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by

following the operating instructions. Adjust only

those controls that are covered by the operating

instructions as an improper adjustment of other

controls may result in damage and will often

require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the product to its normal operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in

any way, and
f ) When the product exhibits a distinct change in

performance - this indicates a need for service.

19)Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or
have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.

repairs to this product, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the product is
in proper operating condition.

21)Wall or ceiling mounting - When mounting the product
on a wall or ceiling, be sure to install the product
according to the method recommended by the
manufacturer.

22)Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into
such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits as contact
with them might be fatal.

23)Protective Attachment Plug - The product is equipped
with an attachment plug having overload protection.
This is a safety feature. See Instruction Manual for
replacement or resetting of protective device. If
replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service
technician has used a replacement plug specified by
the manufacturer that has the same overload protection
as the original plug.

recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the
product. When mounting the product on a wall, be sure
to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use only the
mounting hardware recommended by the

well ventilated area and ensure that there is at least
4" (10 cm) of free space along the sides, top and back
of the equipment.

4" (10 cm)

● Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.

● Place the unit at least 12" (30 cm) away from any CRT

TV to avoid color variations across the TV screen. If the
variations persist, move the unit further away from the
TV. LCD TV is not prone to such variation.

● Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong
magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and
electronic/electrical equipment (home computers,
facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.

● Do not place anything on top of the unit.

● Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures

higher than 104°F (40°C) or to extremely 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 removing it

from the AC outlet, as pulling the cord can damage
internal wires.

● The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and
shall always remain readily operable.

● Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in
electric shock. Refer internal service to your local
SHARP service facility.
