Introduction
Important safety precautions
Cleaning—Unplug the AC power adapter from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the product when it is dirty. To protect the product, do not use a chemical cloth to clean it. Chemicals may cause damage or cracks in the casing of the product.
Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool and in a wet basement.
Do not place vases or any other water-filled containers on this product. The water may spill onto the product causing fire or electric shock.
Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing so can cause the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a cart, stand, tripod, or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product.
When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved with utmost care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
Ventilation—The vents and other openings in the casing are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions are followed.
Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat- generating products (including amplifiers).
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the product. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC power adapter under the product or other heavy items. The product uses power even in Standby. Unplug the product from the AC outlet when you are not using it. Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage
and other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified person to perform servicing.
Devices connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the MAINS connection or through other devices with a connection to protective earthing and to a television distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a television distribution system therefore has to be provided through a device providing electrical isolation within a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).
NOTE
For requirements in Norway and Sweden, the requirements for isolation are also relevant for devices that can be connected to television distribution systems.

Preparation
Inserting the batteries
Before using the Receiver for the first time, insert the two supplied “AAA” size zinc-carbon batteries. When the batteries become depleted and the remote control unit fails to operate, replace the batteries with new “AAA” size batteries.
Open the battery cover. 1 Insert the two supplied “AAA” size zinc- 2
carbon batteries.
Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (e) and (f) indications in the battery compartment.
Close the battery cover. 3
CAUTION
Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause chemical leakage in old batteries. Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If you find any chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth. The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions. If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from it. When replacing the batteries, use zinc-carbon batteries instead of alkaline ones.
Note on disposing batteries:
The batteries provided contain no harmful materials such as cadmium, lead or mercury. Regulations concerning used batteries stipulate that batteries may no longer be thrown out with the household rubbish. Deposit any used batteries free of charge into the designated collection containers set up at commercial businesses.

Connecting external devices
Before connecting ... E
Be sure to turn off the Receiver and any external equipment before making connections. Firmly connect a cable to a terminal or socket. Carefully read the operation manual of each external device for possible connection types. This also helps you get the best audiovisual quality to maximise the potential of the Receiver and the connected device.
NOTE
The cables illustrated in pages 13 to 15 are commercially available items.
Video connections
HDMI connection
Example of connectable devices
HD Ready TV E
The HDMI connection permits digital video and audio transmission via a connection cable to a TV. The digital picture and sound data are transmitted without data compression and therefore lose none of their quality. Analogue to digital conversion is no longer necessary in any connected devices, which would also result in quality losses.

Troubleshooting
The following conditions in the table below do not always indicate a problem. Please perform the checks described below before calling for service. If the problem can not be corrected by the use of this manual, remove the mains plug from the power socket and contact the Helpline on 0845 880 0421 in order to obtain service or advice. Where this is not possible please visit our web site www.sharp.co.uk/customersupport.aspx
Customers without Internet access may phone 0845 880 0421 during office hours. In the unlikely event of this equipment requiring repair during the guarantee period, you will need to provide proof of purchase to the repair company. Please keep your purchase invoice or receipt in a safe place.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should you try and repair this product yourself. This will invalidate the warranty. Do not open the unit as there is risk of electric shock.
Problem Possible solution
No power.
The Receiver cannot be operated. External influences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause improper operation. In this
Remote control unit does not operate.
Picture is cut off. Are screen mode adjustments (WIDE MODE) such as picture size made correctly? (Page 17)
Power is suddenly turned off. The Receiver’s internal temperature has increased. Remove any objects blocking the vent or clean.
No picture. Are connections to external equipment correct? (Pages 13 to 15)
No sound. Is the volume too low?
The Receiver sometimes makes a cracking sound.
Freezing / Blocking Check Freeview reception information as we have listed on the front of the manual.
There is noise interference on the TV while a broadcast is being received.
Check if you pressed a on the remote control unit. Is the AC power adapter disconnected? Check if you pressed a on the Receiver.
case, operate the Receiver after first turning off the power, or unplugging the AC power adapter and re-plugging it in after one or two minutes.
Are batteries inserted with polarity ( e, f) aligned? Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.) Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting? Is a fluorescent light illuminating the remote control sensor?
Is auto standby activated? (Page 21)
Is the input signal type selected correctly after connection? (Page 17) Is the correct output source selected? (Page 10) Is the antenna connected properly? (Page 9) Hold the HDMI button on the remote control for 5 seconds to reset the output to 1080i. (Page 17)
Check if you pressed mute on the remote control unit.
This is not a malfunction. This happens when the casing slightly expands and contracts according to changes in temperature. This does not affect the Receiver’s performance.
Refer to the page 21 and 22 to perform the First Time Installation.
Depending on the reception of the broadcast, interference may appear on the picture while you watch a TV broadcast and the unit is left on. This is not a malfunction of the unit.
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
When the Receiver is used in a low temperature space (e.g., room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the Receiver will recover when the temperature returns to normal. Do not leave the Receiver in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the Receiver in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater.
