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

ASA

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 immedi-

ately 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 three-pin 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.

Dear SHARP Customer

Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP LCD Colour TV product. To ensure safety and many
years of trouble-free operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Precautions
carefully before using this product.

Important Safety Precautions

Electricity is used to perform many useful functions, but it can also cause personal injuries and property
damage if improperly handled. This product has been engineered and manufactured with the highest priority
on safety. However, improper use can result in electric shock and/or fire. In order to prevent potential danger,
please observe the following instructions when installing, operating and cleaning the product. To ensure your
safety and prolong the service life of your LCD colour TV product, please read the following precautions
carefully before using the product.

■ Read instructions—All operating instructions must be read and understood before the product is operated.

■ Keep this manual in a safe place—These safety and operating instructions must be kept in a safe place for

future reference.

■ Observe warnings—All warnings on the product and in the instructions must be observed closely.

■ Follow instructions—All operating instructions must be followed.

■ Attachments—Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer. Use of inadequate attach-

ments can result in accidents.

■ Power source—This product must operate on a power source specified on the specification label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supply used in your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
For units designed to operate on batteries or another power source, refer to the operating instructions.

■ Power cord protection—The power cords must be routed properly to prevent people from stepping on them
or objects from resting on them. Check the cords at the plugs and product.

■ If you plan to use a 12-VDC power supply unit other than the AC adapter supplied with the product, make
sure the power supply unit provides stable voltage with minimum fluctuations. Unstable power supply can
cause problems in the product.

■ Overloading—Do not overload AC outlets or extension cords.
Overloading can cause fire or electric shock.

■ Entering of objects and liquids—Never insert an object into the product through vents or openings. High
voltage flows in the product, and inserting an object can cause electric shock and/or short internal parts.
For the same reason, do not spill water or liquid on the product.

■ Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high
voltage and other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified service person to perform servicing.

■ Repair—If any of the following conditions occurs, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet, and request a
qualified service person to perform repairs:
a.When the power cord or plug is damaged.
b.When a liquid was spilled on the product or when objects have fallen into the product.
c.When the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d.When the product does not operate properly as described in the operating instructions.

Do not touch the controls other than those described in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment
of controls not described in the instructions can cause damage, which often requires extensive adjust-

ment work by a qualified technician.
e.When the product has been dropped or damaged.
f. When the product displays an abnormal condition. Any noticeable abnormality in the product indicates

that the product needs servicing.

■ Replacement parts—In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service person uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same characteristics and performance
as the original parts. Use of unauthorized parts can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.

■ Safety checks—Upon completion of service or repair work, request the service technician to perform safety
checks to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.

■ 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.

2

Important Safety Precautions (Continued)

■ Cleaning—Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before

cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

■ Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such

as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink and laundry tub, swimming
pool and in a wet basement.

■ Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand,

tripod or table. Placing the product on an unstable base can
cause the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as
well as damage to the product. Use only a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket or table 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 manufacturer.

■ When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved

with utmost care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven
floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.

■ Ventilation—The vents and other openings in the cabinet are

designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and
openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating
and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place the product
on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block
ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-in
installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place such
as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or
the manufacturer’s instructions are followed.

■ The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore,

it can break when the product is dropped or applied with impact.
Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the
LCD panel breaks.

■ Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such

as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating products
(including amplifiers).

The LCD panel is a very high technology product with 921,600 thin film transistors, giving you fine
picture details.
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red.
Please note that this does not affect the performance of your product.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

Before using the LCD TV set for the first time, install the two AAA batteries supplied in the remote control.
When the batteries become depleted and the remote control fails to operate, replace the batteries with new
AAA batteries.

1 Open the battery cover. 2 Insert two AAA batteries. 3 Replace the battery cover.

■ Raise the cover while
pressing the ([) part.

■ Position the positive and
negative ends of the
batteries as indicated in
the compartment.

■ Engaging the lower
claw with the remote
control, close the
cover.

Caution!

Precautions regarding batteries

■ Improper use of batteries can result in a leakage of chemicals and/or explosion. Be sure to follow the
instructions below.

• Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (–) indications.

• Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not mix batteries of different types.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries and/
or cause old batteries to leak chemicals.

• Remove batteries as soon as they are depleted. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If
chemical leakage is found, wipe it off with a cloth.

• The batteries supplied with the product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.

• If the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the
remote control.

Using Remote Control

■ Use the remote control by pointing it towards the remote sensor
window of the main unit. Objects between the remote control and
sensor window may prevent proper operation.

Cautions regarding use of remote control

■ Do not expose the remote control to shock. In addition, do not
expose the remote control to liquids, and do not place it in an area
with high humidity.

■ Do not install or place the remote control under direct sunlight. The
heat may cause deformation of the unit.

■ The remote control may not work properly if the remote sensor
window is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such a case,
change the angle of the lighting or main unit, or operate the remote
control closer to the remote sensor window.

Antenna Connection

To enjoy a clearer picture, we recommend that you use
an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation
of the types of connection that are used for coaxial and
feeder cables:

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

cable, change this for a new standard DIN45325
(IEC169-2) plug and plug it into the antenna
terminal at the back of TV set via the antenna cable
(not supplied).

(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
terminal at the back of TV set via the antenna cable
(not supplied).
