The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

NOTE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

z Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. z Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. z Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

z Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces

may cause the product and cart combination to overturn.

Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for venti-

lation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

Power Sources - This product should be operated only from the type

of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

Grounding or Polarization - This product may be equipped with a

polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system

is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70, provides information with regard 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 antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Example of antenna grounding as per National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

NEC - NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE S2898A

Lightning - For added protection for this product during a lightning

- Important safety instructions -

Important Instruction

storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the

vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral

convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

WHY PURCHASE 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 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

sure that there is at least 4" (10 cm) of free space along the top and sides of the equipment.

4" (10 cm)

z Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibra-

tion.

z Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong mag-

netic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/ electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generates electrical noise.

z Do not place anything on top of the unit. z Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C) or to

extremely low temperatures.

z If your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power cord from the AC

outlet. Plug the AC power cord back in, and then turn on your system.

z In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safe-

ty.

4" (10 cm) 4" (10 cm)

z Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it

from the AC outlet, as pulling the cord can damage internal wires.

z Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result

in electric shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service facility.

z This unit should only be used within the range of 41°F - 95°F (5°C - 35°C).

Warning:

z The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this prod-

uct 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.

z 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.

 Volume control

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 while turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or while continually listening at high volumes.
