NOTES FOR USERS IN THE U.K. AND IRELAND
Important Instruction
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded)
plug incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI
or AST A approved BS 1362 fuse marked
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 13A socket outlet as a serious electric shock may occur.
Special Notes
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORT ANT:
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 termi-
nal which is marked L or coloured red.
or and of the same rating as
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.

Precautions
General
Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well-ventilated area and
ensure that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space along the sides, top and back
of the equipment.
10 cm (4")
In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for
safety.
Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing
it from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage internal wires.
10 cm (4") 10 cm (4")
Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from
vibration.
Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong
magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and
electronic/electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generates electrical
noise.
Do not place anything on top of the unit.
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) or to
extremely low temperatures.
If your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power lead from the wall
socket. Plug the AC power lead back in, and then turn on your system.
10 cm (4")
Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in
electric shock. Refer internal service to your local
SHARP service facility.
The ventilation should not be impeded by covering
the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
The apparatus is designed for use in moderate climate.
This unit should only be used within the range of 5°C - 35°C (41°F - 95°F).

Precautions / Accessories
General Information
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 w ill not be held
responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than
that which is specified.
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.
This product is equipped with a cooling fan on its back for better heat radiation.
Volume contro l
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker efficiency, location,
and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels,
which occurs whilst turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or
whilst continually listening at high volumes.
Care of compact discs
Compact di scs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracki ng can occur d ue to an
accumulation of dir t 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 sid e from which signals
are read. 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 centre, along the radius.
Please confirm that the following accessories are included.
Remote control 1 "AA" size batteries (UM/SUM-3, R6, HP-
7 or similar) 2
