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 (AVC System)/13A (Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit)) fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as above, 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.

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 10A 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 Green & Yellow: Earth

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.

Important User Guidance Information

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this SHARP PZ-50HV2E/PZ-50MR2E,PZ-43HV2E/PZ-43MR2E Plasma Display TV, please first read this information carefully.

With the SHARP PZ-50HV2E/PZ-50MR2E,PZ-43HV2E/PZ-43MR2E, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display TV with long-life and high reliability. To achieve images of exceptional quality, this SHARP Plasma Display TV incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction, as well as very precise and highly advanced technology. On a total of nearly 3 million light cells, more than 99.999 percent of the cells remain active.

Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the SHARP PZ-50HV2E/PZ-50MR2E,PZ-43HV2E/PZ-43MR2E Plasma Display TV will diminish very slowly, such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). To enjoy beautiful and

bright images on your SHARP Plasma Display TV for a long time, please carefully read and follow the usage guidelines below:

Usage guidelines

All phosphor-based screens (including conventional tube-type televisions) can be affected by displaying static images for a prolonged period. Plasma Display TV’s are no exception to this rule. After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be avoided by taking some basic precautions. By following the recommendations listed below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from your Plasma

Display TV.

• Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying the same image or virtually still moving pictures (e.g. video game images which have static portions). After playing a game, or displaying a PC image or any still image, it is best to view a normal moving picture in the “Panorama” or “Full” screen setting for more than 3 times the length of the previous still moving image.

• Do not display Teletext for a prolonged period of time.

• Avoid viewing the On Screen Display for extended periods, from a decoder, DVD player, VCR and all other components.

• Do not leave the same picture freeze-framed or paused continuously over a long period of time, when using the still picture mode

from a TV, VCR, DVD player or any other component.

• Images which have both very bright areas and very dark areas side by side should not be displayed for a prolonged period of time.

• When displaying a game, the “GAME” mode setting within “AV MODE” is strongly recommended. However, please limit its use to less than 2 hours at a time.

• After using the Plasma Display TV, make sure to switch the display to “STAND BY” mode or to turn off the power.

Installation guidelines

The SHARP PZ-50HV2E/PZ-50MR2E,PZ-43HV2E/PZ-43MR2E Plasma Display TV incorporates a very thin design. To ensure safety, please take the proper measures to mount or install the Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit), in order to prevent the unit from tipping over in the event of vibration or accidental movement.

This product should be installed by using only parts and accessories designed by SHARP. Use of accessories other than the SHARP stand or installation bracket may result in instability, and could cause injury. For custom installation, please consult the dealer where the unit was purchased. To ensure correct installation, experienced and qualified experts must install the unit. SHARP will not be held responsible for accident or damage caused by the use of parts and accessories manufactured by other companies.

To avoid malfunction and overheating, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked when installing to ensure proper heat emission:

• Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc.

• Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor.

• Do not cover with a cloth, etc.

• Clean the vents on the sides and rear of the unit to remove dust build-up, by using a vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting.

Using the unit without proper ventilation may cause the internal temperature to rise, and could result in possible malfunction. When the surrounding or internal temperature exceeds a certain degree, the display will automatically power off in order to cool the internal electronics and prevent hazardous occurrences.

Any malfunction may occur due to: an inappropriate installation site, improper assembly, installation, mounting, or operation of this product, modifications made to the product. However, SHARP cannot be held responsible for such accidents or malfunction.

• Typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display, e.g. permanent residual images upon the phosphor of the panel, and the existence of a minute number of inactive light cells in the screen, are not covered by local warranties.

About the Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit)'s protection function

The brightness of this display will deteriorate slightly when an image with little movement such as a photograph or computer image is continuously displayed. This is caused by the Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit)'s protection function which detects images with slight movement and automatically adjusts brightness to protect the display, and is not a malfunction. This function begins operating when the display detects no or little screen movement for a period of about three minutes.

Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit)'s sticking and after-image lag

• Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases.

1. After-image lagging due to remaining electrical load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.

2. After-image (lag image) due to burning

Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display TV (Panel Unit) continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is displayed continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving images are later displayed, but they will not disappear completely.

• The Power control function can be set to help prevent damage from screen burning. (See page 41.)
