Introduction

Precautions For Daily Use

Observe the following items

Maintenance of the cabinet

• When cleaning the cabinet, use a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) to clean gently.

• Do not use a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals, as this could cause the ingredients of the cabinet body to deteriorate or crack.

• Be careful not to use an abrasive cloth for cleaning or clean with excessive force, as this could scratch the surface of the cabinet.

• If the cabinet is greatly soiled, clean with a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of diluted neutral detergent and wrung out, and then clean with a soft dry cloth.

• Solvents such as benzene or thinner could cause the cabinet to deteriorate, or make its coating come off. Therefore do not use such solvents to clean the cabinet.

• Because plasticizer is included in the plastics, deterioration or the coating peeling off could occur when the cabinet comes into contact with some substances. Therefore keep it away from volatile substances such as insecticide. In addition, do not let it come into contact with objects made of rubber, resin, etc. for a long time.

Maintenance of the LCD panel

• Before cleaning the LCD panel, be sure to turn off the TV set and unplug the power cord from the outlet.

• When cleaning the LCD panel, use a dry and soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) to clean the surface of the LCD panel gently. For protecting the LCD panel, do not clean with a dirty cloth, detergent, or a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals, as this could cause peeling of the panel surface.

• Be careful not to clean with an abrasive cloth or with excessive force, as this could cause the panel surface to be scratched.

• If the LCD panel is greatly soiled, clean it gently with a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of water (Do not clean with excessive force, so as to avoid the scratch of the panel surface).

• If dust sticks on the surface of the LCD panel, clean the panel with a commercially available cleaning brush (anti-static brush).

Important safety precautions

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.

• The cabinet is primarily made of plastic. 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.

• 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.

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.

• 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.

Introduction

• 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.

• 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.

• In case the product is dropped and the cabinet is damaged, be sure to turn off the power of the product, and unplug the power cord. If you continue to use the product, it may cause fire or electric shock. Contact your dealer.

• Do not open the rear cover of the cabinet to reconstruct the circuits. There exists high voltage within the cabinet and it may cause electric shock and injury. If maintenance is required, contact your dealer.

• The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is struck forcefully or with a sharp object. 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 power cord under the TV set or other heavy items.

• Do not place heavy objects on this product or stand on it. Doing so could cause injury if the product overturns. Take special care near children and pets.

• Unplug the power cord before you move the TV set. If not unplugged beforehand, the power cord may become damaged and cause electric shock.

The LCD panel is a very high technology product with 2,073,600 pixels, 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 TV

• When transporting the TV, never carry it by holding or otherwise 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.

If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.

• Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

• Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

• Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.

• Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.

• Install the product on the place where the AC cord can be unplugged easily from the AC outlet, or from the AC INPUT terminal on the rear of the product.

NOTE

• The above are pictures for reference only; the actual item might be different.

Quick guide

What is the HOME?

You can easily launch to enjoy Internet connection and Home network function and to perform settings for the TV from this “HOME” screen. By connecting the TV to the internet you can enjoy a variety of broadband content. Internet browsing on a TV behaves differently to a PC (Personal Computer). PC’s have greater web browsing capabilities and memory plus support a wider range of functionalities and add ons – some PC viewing capability may not be possible on a TV. In such cases an application may close or an exclamation mark (“!”) or an error message may be displayed. To maximise the performance of YouTube content it is highly recommended that the user can access the content via the dedicated YouTube application on this TV. Sharp recommends that from time to time you update your TV’s software via the internet or by downloading updates onto a USB. Go to www.sharp.net.au and click on Customer Support, then follow the appropriate links.

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.

DVI/HDMI conversion

Using a DVI/HDMI cable, the digital video signals of a DVD can also be played via the compatible HDMI connection. The sound must be fed in additionally.

• When connecting a DVI/HDMI cable to the HDMI terminal, the image may not come in clearly.

• Both HDMI and DVI use the same HDCP copy protection method.

When using the HDMI 2 terminal

You must set the audio signal input source depending on the type of HDMI cable connected (refer to page 46 for details).

Enjoying 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.

• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt 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.

• Do not allow the infrared receiver to become dirty, and do not attach stickers to or otherwise cover the infrared receiver. Doing so may prevent the receiver from operating normally.

• If the 3D glasses are affected by other infrared data communication equipment, 3D 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.

Usage range of the 3D glasses

• The 3D glasses can be used by receiving an infrared signal sent from the TV.
