SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked 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.
)5)
or
and of the same rating as above,
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.

Introduction

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. 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). Headphones—Do not set the volume at a high level. Hearing experts advise against extended listening at
• high volume levels. 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.
• 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 or red. This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the Display
When transporting the Display, never carry it by holding onto the speakers. Be sure to always carry the Display by two people holding it with two hands—one hand on each side of the Display.

3
CAUTION
Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause chemical
• leakage in old batteries. Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If you find any
• chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth. Do not overuse the light-up function of the LIGHT D button, doing so may shorten the battery life. Replace the batteries
• when the light on the LCD window or the light-up function becomes weak or when the window becomes blurry. Do not continue to use the remote control unit with the batteries running low. This may result in
• error message or malfunction. Should this happen replace the batteries and leave it unused for a while. Otherwise, you may open the rear battery cover and press the RESET button. When you press the RESET button, your universal remote control settings will be deleted. The remote control unit has a internal memory of external devices. In order not to lose the data,
• replace the batteries quickly. If the manufacturer code is initialised and lost, you can input the manufacturer code again (See page 50–53). The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
• If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from it.
• When replacing the batteries, use alkaline batteries instead of zinc-carbon ones.
RESET button
Note on disposing batteries:
The batteries provided contain no harmful materials such as cadmium, lead or mercury. Regulations concerning used batteries stipulate that batteries may no longer be thrown out with the household rubbish. Deposit any used batteries free of charge into the designated collection containers set up at commercial businesses.

What is Teletext?
Teletext broadcasts pages of information and entertainment to specially equipped TV. Your TV receives teletext signals broadcast by a TV network, and decodes them into graphical format for viewing.

Turning Teletext on/off
Select a TV channel or external source providing
1
a teletext programme.
2
Press m to display the Teletext.
Many stations use the TOP operating system, while
• some use FLOF (e.g. CNN). Your TV supports both these systems. The pages are divided into topic groups and topics. After switching on the teletext, up to 2,000 pages are stored for fast access. Each time you press m, the screen switches as
• shown below. Press m again to display the teletext on the right
• screen and the normal image on the left screen. If you select a programme with no teletext signal, “No
• Teletext available” displays. The same message displays during other modes if no

The HDMI connections permit digital video and audio transmission via a connection cable from a player/ recorder. The digital picture and sound data are transmitted without data compression and therefore lose none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion is no longer necessary in the connected devices, which also would result in quality losses.
