Warning:

The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit .
Using this product with a higher voltage other than that which is
specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of acci­dent causing damage. SHARP will not be held responsible for any
damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than that
which is specified.

" Volume control

The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker ef fi­ciency, location, and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid
exposure to high volume levels. Do not turn the volume on to full at
switch on and listen to music at moderate levels.

" Care of compact discs

Compact discs are fairly resistant t o damage, however mistracking
can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow
the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collec­tion and player.

Do not write on either side of the disc, particularl y the non-label

!

side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and exces sive

!

moisture.
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on

!

the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out
from the centre, along the radius.
