SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE UK
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
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 immediately 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 troublefree operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Precautions carefully before using this product.
Important Safety Precautions
• 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.
•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.
• 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.
•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.
Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could
cause an afterimage to remain.
There is power consumption always if main plug is
connected.

Preparation (continued)
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.
• Slide the cover while
pressing the (
) part.
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.
• 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.
• Place batteries with their
terminals corresponding to the
(+) and (–) indications in the
battery compartment.
• Engaging the lower
claw with the remote
control, close the cover.
Using the 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 the 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 in direct sunlight. The
heat may cause deformation to it.
• The remote control may not work properly if the remote sensor
window is in direct sunlight or strong light. In such a case, change
the angle of the lighting or main unit, or operate the remote control
closer to the remote sensor window.

Teletext is an information service organised like a magazine,
which is provided by some TV stations in addition to regular
television broadcasting. Your LCD TV set receives special
Teletext signals broadcast by a TV station, processes the

weather and sports information, stock exchange prices,
programme reviews and closed captioning for people hard of
hearing are among the many services available through Teletext.
■ Teletext mode
Teletext is turned on/off with (Teletext) on the remote control.
You can operate your LCD TV set in Teletext mode directly by
inputting commands with the remote control.

Problem Check item
The picture is not sharp.
The picture shakes.
The picture has ghosts.
The picture is spotted.
There are stripes on the screen or
colours fade.
• The reception may be weak.
• The quality of the broadcast may also be bad.
• Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.
• Make sure the outside antenna has not been disconnected.
• Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.
• Broadcast waves may be reflected from adjacent mountains or buildings.
• There may be interference from automobiles, trains, high-voltage lines, neon lights, etc.
• There may be interference between the antenna cable and power cable. Try positioning
them further apart.
• Is the unit receiving interference from other devices?
Transmission antennas of radio broadcasting stations and transmission antennas of
amateur radios and mobile phones may also cause interference.
• Use the unit as far apart as possible from devices that may cause possible interference.
■ 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 (–4°F to +140°F)

■ As a part of policy of continuous improvement, SHARP reserves the right to make design and specification changes for the LCD TV set
improvement without prior notice. The performance specification figures indicated are nominal values of production units. There may be
some deviations from these values in individual units.
The Consumer Electronics Industry has initiated a commitment to improve the energy efficiency of TVs. SHARP has signed this
commitment and as a result this TV may have a label on the front of the product informing the customer of the energy consumption in various operating modes.
