Introduction
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
Important safety precautions carefully before using this product.
• The illustrations and the OSD in this operation
manual are for explanation purposes and may vary
slightly from the actual operations.
• The examples used throughout this manual are
based on 52 inch models.
1
Introduction
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.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the panel when it is dirty. To protect the panel,
do not use a chemical cloth to clean it. Chemicals may cause damage or cracks in
the cabinet of the TV.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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 impact applied. If the LCD panel is broken, be careful not
to be injured by broken glass.
• Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such
as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating products
(including amplifiers).
• 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 cord under the
TV set or other heavy items.
• Headphones—Do not set the volume at a high level. Hearing experts advise against
extended listening at high volume levels.
• 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.
• Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can
expose you to high voltage and other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified
person to perform servicing.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you fine picture
details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few non-active pixels
may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green, red or yellow. This is
within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the TV
When transporting the TV, never carry it by putting pressure onto the display. Be sure
to always carry the TV by two people holding it with two hands—one hand on each
side of the TV.
Caring for the cabinet
• Use a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) and gently wipe the surface of the cabinet.
• Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may deform the components
of the main unit cabinet or cause cracking.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the cabinet.
• If the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) soaked in
neutral detergent diluted with water and thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe with a
soft dry cloth.
• Avoid using benzene, thinner, and other solvents, as these may deform the cabinet
and cause the paint to peel off.
• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids. Also, do not allow the cabinet to
remain in contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers
inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.

Introduction
Caring for the front panel
• Turn off the main power and unplug the AC cord from the wall outlet before handling.
• Gently wipe the surface of the front panel with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.). To
protect the front panel, do not use a dirty cloth, liquid cleaners, or a chemical cloth
(wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.). This may damage the surface of the front panel.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the front
panel.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the front panel when it is really dirty (It may
scratch the surface of the front panel when wiped strongly).
• If the front panel is dusty, use an anti-static brush, which is commercially available, to
clean it.
WARNING
To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames
away from this product at all times.
3D glasses (3D glasses are sold separately)
Prevention of accidental ingestion

• Be careful not to trap your finger in the hinge section of the 3D glasses. Doing so
may result in injury.
—Pay special attention when children are using this product.
Using the 3D glasses
• The 3D glasses vision should be limited. Security advisory establishes a maximum of
3 hours visualization, and in any case no more than one show length, break included.
• Use only the 3D glasses recommended for this TV.
• Use the 3D glasses only for the specified purpose.
• Do not move around while wearing the 3D glasses. The surrounding area appears
dark, which may result in falling or other accidents that may cause injury.
Caring for the 3D glasses
• Use only the cloth provided with the 3D glasses to clean the lenses. Remove dust
and soil from the cloth. Any dust or other soiling on the cloth may result in scratches
on the product. Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinners as doing so may
cause the coating to peel off.
• When cleaning the 3D glasses, take care not to allow water or other fluids to come
into contact with the glasses.
• Always store the 3D glasses in the case provided when not in use.
• When storing the 3D glasses, avoid very humid or hot locations.
Viewing 3D images
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images,
discontinue use and rest your eyes.
• Do not use the 3D glasses if they are cracked or broken.
Caution for lithium battery (for AN-3DG10)
• Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat such as direct sunlight or fire.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type of battery. The battery may explode if
improperly replaced.
• Take care not to reverse the battery poles (+ and –) when loading the battery. Follow
the correct procedure when loading the battery. Loading the battery incorrectly may
damage the battery or cause it to leak battery fluid, which could result in a fire, injury
or damage.
Keep away from heat (for AN-3DG20)
• Do not place the 3D glasses in a fire, near heat or in an area with high humidity. This
product may cause a fire or injury from ignition or explosion of the built-in lithium ion
polymer rechargeable battery.
• Use the supplied USB cable to connect to a USB terminal of a 3D compatible
SHARP TV when recharging. Recharging using other devices may lead to battery
leakage, heat generation or explosion.
Caution regarding the power supply (for AN-3DG20)
• Use the supplied USB cable to connect to a USB terminal of a 3D compatible
SHARP TV for supplying power. Supplying power using other devices may lead to
heat generation or explosion.
• Because there is a danger of electric shock, when lightning occurs, stop using the
3D glasses with power supplied by a USB cable and remove the USB cable from the
USB terminal on the TV and the power supply terminal on the 3D glasses.

Cautions for 3D image viewing
You can use special 3D glasses to watch
3D-supported images on this TV.
• You can enjoy 3D movies on this TV by viewing the
movie through 3D glasses, sold separately.
• To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D
glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast
to exactly match alternating left and right video images
displayed by the TV.
• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D TV.
Some people suffer from stereo blindness which
prevents them from perceiving the intended depth of
3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D
programming may experience initial feelings of motion
sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may
experience headaches, eye fatigue or continued motion
sickness, or some viewers might also experience
epileptic seizures or strokes. Like a roller coaster, the
experience is not for everyone.
CAUTION
• The 3D glasses are precision equipment. Handle them
with care.
• Improper use of the 3D glasses or failure to follow these
instructions can result in eye strain.
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort
while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue use
of the 3D glasses. Using the binocular disparity 3D
system of this TV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or
software can make images appear with a cross talk blur
or create overlapping images.
• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a
break periodically to prevent eye strain.
• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism
or a different level of eyesight between the left and
right eyes, you should take the necessary steps, such
as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before
viewing 3D images. The 3D glasses can be worn over
eyeglasses.
67
Enjoying 3D image viewing
• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D glasses
horizontally level with the TV scr
the 3D glasses with respect to the TV screen, the
images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear
significantly different or images may appear overlapping.
• View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV
screen. The recommended distance is three times the
effective height of the TV screen. Viewing should not be
done closer than the recommended distance.
• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D
images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear
at a distance closer or farther than the actual TV screen.
This may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV
screen and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit
the screen or surrounding objects.
• The 3D glasses are not recommended for people aged
less than 6.
• When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a
parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing
3D images, and if they show signs of discomfort,
immediately discontinue use of the 3D glasses.
• People with a known history of photosensitivity and
people with heart problems or poor health should not
use the 3D glasses. This can worsen existing health
conditions.
• Do not use the 3D glasses for other purposes (such as
general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles).
• Do not use the 3D function or 3D glasses while walking
or moving around. This may result in injuries due to
running into objects, tripping, and/or falling.
• When using the 3D glasses, take care not to
accidentally strike the TV screen or other people.
Viewing 3D images may cause you to misjudge the
distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the
screen, resulting in possible injury.
• It is recommended that you do not view 3D images if
you are sleep deprived or if you have been drinking
alcohol.

images may not be displayed correctly.
Caution during viewing
• Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones
or wireless transceivers) near the 3D glasses. Doing so may cause the 3D glasses to
malfunction.
• The 3D glasses cannot operate fully at extreme high or low temperatures. Use them
within the specified usage temperature range.
• If the 3D glasses are used in a room with fluorescent lighting (50/60 Hz), the light
within the room may appear to flicker. In this case, either darken or turn off the
fluorescent lights when using the 3D glasses.
• Wear the 3D glasses correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D
glasses are worn upside down or back-to-front.
• Other displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, and calculators) may
appear dark and difficult to view while wearing the 3D glasses. Do not wear the 3D
glasses when watching anything other than 3D images.
• If you lie on your side while watching the TV with 3D glasses, the picture may look
dark or may not be visible.
• Be sure to stay within the viewing angle and optimum TV viewing distance when
watching 3D images. Otherwise, you may not be able to enjoy the full 3D effect.
• The 3D glasses may not work properly if there is any other 3D product or electronic
device turned on near the glasses or TV. If this occurs, turn off the other 3D product
or electronic device or keep the device as far away as possible from the 3D glasses.
• Stop using this product in any of the following situations:
– When images consistently appear doubled while you are wearing the 3D glasses.
– When you have difficultly perceiving the 3D effect.
• If the 3D glasses are faulty or damaged, stop using them immediately. Continued use
of the 3D glasses may cause eye fatigue, headaches and illness.
• If you have any abnormal skin reaction, stop using the 3D glasses. In very rare
instances, such reactions may be due to an allergic reaction to the coating or
materials used.
• If your nose or temples become red or you experience any pain or itchiness, stop
using the 3D glasses. Pressure caused by long periods of use may lead to such
reactions and may result in skin irritation.
• You may not be able to use several menu items while you are watching the TV in 3D
mode.
• You cannot use the 3D function in radio or data mode.
NOTE
• These 3D glasses are only for use with SHARP LCD TVs supporting 3D.

Appendix
Warning regarding basic use
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
• When the TV 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 TV will
recover when the temperature returns to normal.
• Do not leave the TV in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the TV 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: e 5 °C to e 35 °C.
Devices connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the
MAINS connection or through other devices with a connection to protective earthing
and to a television distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances
create a fire hazard. Connection to a television distribution system therefore has to be
provided through a device providing electrical isolation within a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).
NOTE
• For requirements in Norway and Sweden, the requirements for isolation are also
relevant for devices that can be connected to television distribution systems.
