■ 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.

● Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.

● Place the speakers at least 30 cm (12") away from any

CRT TV to avoid colour variations across the TV
screen. If the variations persist, move the speakers
further away from the TV. LCD TV is not prone to such
variation.

● Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong
magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and
electronic/electrical equipment (home computers,
facsimiles, etc.) which generate 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.

● 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.

● The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and
shall always remain readily operable.

● 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.

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

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
will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from
use of this unit with a voltage other than that which is
specified.

■ 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. Do not
turn the volume on to full at switch on. Listen to music at
moderate levels. Excessive sound pressure from
earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.

■ About DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting)

Digital Audio Broadcasting is a digital transmission system
where audio signals are converted to digital signals for
broadcasting. DAB+ is broadcast as a group of data called
multiplex (ensemble) which may contain one or more
stations (services). Each station contains a primary
service and there may be one or more secondary services.
This allows several programmes or services to be
transmitted on a single frequency.

■ Auto Scan

After the scan:

The stations will be stored in alphanumeric order and the
first station on the list will be selected and you will hear it
through the speakers.

● To listen to other stations, see “Selecting a station in
the station list” on page 20.

Notes:

● If no station is found, “No Service” appears.

■ Condensation

Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an
extremely humid environment may cause condensation
inside the cabinet (CD pickup, etc.) or on the transmitter on
the remote control. Condensation can cause the unit to
malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on with no
disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1
hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter with a
soft cloth before operating the unit.

■ If problem occurs

When this product is subjected to strong external
interference (mechanical shock, excessive static
electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.)
or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.

If such a problem occurs, do the following:

1 Set the unit to the stand-by mode and turn the power on again.
2 If the unit is not restored in the previous operation, unplug

■ Before transporting the unit

Remove the iPod, USB memory device and disc from the
unit. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying
the unit with iPod or USB memory device left docked or discs
left inside might damage the unit.

■ Care of compact discs

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 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.

Maintenance

■ Cleaning the cabinet

Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted
soap solution, then with a dry cloth.

Caution:

● Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner,
etc.). It may damage the cabinet.

● Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause
malfunctions.

■ Cleaning the CD pickup lens

Poor performance during CD playback (skipping or jumping)
can be caused by a dirty or contaminated CD laser pick up
lens. If this happens then the use of a commercially
available CD lens cleaning disc may restore normal
operation. Contact your supplier or local CD software dealer
to obtain CD lens cleaning discs. Ensure all included
instructions/documentation are carefully followed.
