ENERGY STAR® Program Information

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, SHARP has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. ENERGY STAR® is a U.S. registered mark.

WHY PURCHASE ENERGY STAR® LABELED PRODUCTS?

Many Electrical /Electronic Products use energy both when they are on and when they are off. Americans spend more than $3 billion a year on energy consumed by home electronic products when they are not in use. The new ENERGY STAR® labeled models will reduce that energy “leakage” by up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than $1 billion a

year in energy savings for consumers.

The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the

related carbon dioxide pollution that contributes to global warming. If every American family replaced their electronic equipment with ENERGY STAR® labeled models, it would reduce air pollution equivalent to eliminating more than two million cars.

By using ENERGY STAR® labeled products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy. That makes good economic sense and it’s good for our environment.

ENERGY STAR® is a U.S. registered mark.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION

All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated, and should be retained for future reference.

Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This unit has been engineered and manufactured to assure your personal safety. Improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing.

1Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

2Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.

3Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.

4Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

5Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

6Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

7Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

8Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.

9Power-Cord Protection - Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

10Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

11Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.

12Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

● For playback, use normal or low-noise tape for the best sound. (Metal or CrO2 tape is not recommended.)
For recording, use only normal tape.
● Do not use C-120 tapes, tapes with large diameter reels, or poor-quality tapes, as they may cause malfunctions.
● Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment, tighten the slack with a pen or pencil.
● Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab will protect the corresponding side from being erased. Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record again.

Compact discs are fairly resistant to 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, particularly the non-label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do not mark this surface.
● Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive 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 center, along the radius.

Warning:

The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than 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.

Condensation

Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmitter LED on the remote control.

Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.

If this happens, leave the power on with no disc (or cassette) in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter LED with a soft cloth before operating the unit.

Warning:

CD players use a laser pickup which can damage the eyes if viewed directly. Do not look at the pickup, and do not touch the pickup directly.
