11. Repair—If any of the following conditions occurs, unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet, and request a qualified service person to perform repairs.
a. When the AC 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 adjustment 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.
12. 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.
13. 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.

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.
Dear SHARP customer
• Cleaning—Unplug the AC 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.
• Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing so 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.
•Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool and in a wet basement.
•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).
• Do not place vases or any other water-filled containers on this product. The water may spill onto the product causing fire or electric shock.
•To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.
•To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC power cord under the TV set or other heavy items.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with 921,600 thin film transistors, giving you fine picture details. Due to the very large number of pixels, a few non-active pixels may occasionally appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control
Before using the LCD TV set for the first time, install the two “AAA” size batteries supplied in the remote control. When the batteries become depleted and the remote control fails to operate, replace the batteries with new “AAA” size batteries.
1 Open the battery cover. 2 Insert two “AAA” size batteries. 3 Close the battery cover.
Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (–) indications in the battery compartment.
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 LCD TV set may have a shorter operating time 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.
Preparation
Engaging the lower claw with the remote control, close the cover.
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 apply shock to the remote control. 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.

At the Set Time
• Starts recording with the channel and the mode you have set, and stops at the end time.
• Do not remove the card during recording. Otherwise, problems may occur, causing the data including those previously recorded not to be recorded or kept properly.
If There is not Sufficient Space on a Memory Card
• Recording stops when the card runs out of free space.
• Make sure that there is enough space on a card, because timer recording can be set, like with VCRs, without taking free space in account.
If Power Outage Happens/AC Cord or DC Plug at the LCD TV Set is Unplugged During Recording
• Because the recording is not completed under normal conditions, the file cannot be stored while unnecessary data remains in the memory card. To delete unneces­sary data, select “Delete file” in “Edit” and proceed to delete the file. (See page 38.)
• Start formatting the card after saving necessary files to a PC or other external media. All data and files are deleted upon format.

Connecting with External Devices
You can enjoy picture and sound by connecting a VCR or a home video game system to the terminals located on the rear of the LCD TV set. When connecting an external device, turn off the power of the LCD TV set first to prevent any possible damage.
Example of external devices that can be connected
NOTE
PC connection is not possible.
For the cable, use a commercially available audio/video cord.
Only connect audio/video signals to AV-IN1 and AV-IN2/OUT terminals. Connecting other signals may result in a malfunction.
AV-IN1 has 2 video input terminals: VIDEO and S-VIDEO. When you connect external devices to both terminals (and if you select AV-
IN1), you can only view pictures from the S-VIDEO terminal. To view the picture from the VIDEO terminal, do not connect any external devices to the S-VIDEO terminal.
For more information about external device connections, see the manuals of your external devices.
If HDTV (720P/1080I) signals are input to the COMPONENT terminals, playback cannot be viewed.
<Example>
• Camcorder
• Home video game system
External devices that can be connected to COMPONENT terminal
External devices that can be connected to AV-IN2 terminal
* If your external device has a component terminal,
COMPONENT connection is recommended (you can view high-quality pictures).
<Example>
• DVD, etc.
<Example>
• VCR
* If your external device has an S-Video terminal,
S-VIDEO connection is recommended.

Connecting with External Devices (Continued)
Connecting a VCR, DVD player or a Camcorder (AV-IN1/2/COMPONENT)
NOTE
If your VCR (or other external devices) has an S-Video terminal, S-VIDEO connection is recommended. (Use an S-video cord.)
When you connect external devices to both S-VIDEO and VIDEO terminals (and if you select AV-IN1), you can only view pictures from
the S-VIDEO terminal.
You cannot view multiple or synthesized pictures by connecting two or more external devices. When connecting an external device, use care to connect the video and audio cables to the corresponding terminals.
When a monaural audio source is connected to only one of the AUDIO input terminals, sound will be heard not from both speakers but from only one speaker.

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
•Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction. (Storage temperature: –20°C to +60°C)
Before calling for repair services, check the following items for possible remedies to the encountered sympotoms.
