Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP LCD colour TV product. To ensure safety and many years of troublefree operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Precautions carefully before using this product.
Important Safety Precautions
Cleaning—Unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product.
•
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
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, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When
mounting the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Use only the mounting
hardware recommended by the manufacturer.
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 cabinet 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.
The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is
•
struck forcefully or with a sharp object. If the LCD panel is broken, be careful not to be injured by broken glass.
Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating
•
products (including amplifiers).
Headphones—Do not set the volume at a high level. Hearing experts advise against extended listening at
•
high volume levels.
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.
•
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV set or other heavy items.
•
Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.
•
There is power consumption always if main plug is connected.
•
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.
•
Do not insert foreign objects. Placing objects into the vent holes (the holes on the rear on the Display) may cause fire and
electrocution. Be especially if young children are present.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with 2,073,600 pixels, giving you fine picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of
blue, green or red. This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the Display
When transporting the Display, never carry it by holding onto the speakers. Be sure to always carry the Display by two
people holding it with two hands—one hand on each side of the Display.

Preparation
Inserting the batteries
Before using the TV for the first time, insert two supplied “AAA” size alkaline batteries. When the batteries become
depleted and the remote control unit fails to operate, replace the batteries with new “AAA” size batteries.
1
Open the battery cover.
Insert two supplied “AAA” size alkaline
2
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.
Do not overuse the light-up function of the LIGHTD button, doing so may shorten the battery life.
•
Replace the batteries when the light on the LCD window or the light-up function becomes weak or
when the window becomes blurry.
Do not continue to use the remote control unit with the batteries running low. This may result in error
•
message or malfunction. Should this happen replace the batteries and leave it unused for a while.
Otherwise, you may open the rear battery cover and press the reset button. When you press the reset
button, your universal remote control settings will be deleted.
The remote control unit has a internal memory of external devices. In order not to lose the data, replace the batteries quickly.
•
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 alkaline batteries instead of zinc-carbon ones.
•

The HDMI connections permit digital video and audio
transmission via a connection cable from a player/
recorder. The digital picture and sound data are
transmitted without data compression and therefore
lose none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion
is no longer necessary in the connected devices,
which also would result in quality losses.
