Precautions

" General

Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well venti-

lated 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") 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. 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.

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 bat-

tery disposal. This unit should only be used within the range of 5°C - 35°C

(41°F - 95°F).

10 cm (4")

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 and listen to music at moderate levels.

" 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.

< Assembling > < Attaching to the wall >

! Speaker connection

Connect the black wire to the minus (-) terminal, and the red wire to the plus (+) terminal.

Caution:

Connect the speaker wires to the speakers first, then to the

! Setting the FM/AM span selector

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has established that member countries should maintain either a 100 kHz or a 50 kHz interval between broadcasting frequencies of FM stations and 10 kHz or 9 kHz for AM station. The illustration shows the 50/9 kHz zones (regions 1 and 3), and the 100/10 kHz zone (region 2). Before using the unit, set the SPAN SELECTOR switch (on the rear panel) to the interval (span) of your area.

To change the tuning zone:

1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode. 2 Set the SPAN SELECTOR switch (on the rear panel) as follows.

For 50 kHz FM interval (9 kHz in AM) 50/9

For 100 kHz FM interval (10 kHz in AM) 100/10

3 Whilst pressing down the / button and the X-BASS/DEMO

button, press the ON/STAND-BY button until "CLEAR AL" appears.

Caution:

This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock, timer settings, tuner preset, and CD programme.

! Demonstration mode

The first time the unit is plugged in, the unit will enter the demonstration mode. You will see words scroll.

To cancel the demonstration mode:

When the unit is in the power stand-by mode (demonstration mode), press the X-BASS/DEMO button. The demonstration mode will be cancelled and the display will disappear.

To return to the demonstration mode:

When the unit is in the power stand-by mode, press the X-BASS/ DEMO button again.

Note:

When the power is on, the X-BASS/DEMO button can be used to select the extra bass mode.

! To turn the power on

Press the ON/STAND-BY button to turn the power on.

After use:

When inserting or removing the batteries, push them towards the

battery terminals.

3 Replace the cover.

Precautions for battery use:

Replace all old batteries with new ones at the same time.

Remove the batteries if the unit is not to be used for long periods

of time. This will prevent potential damage due to battery leakage.

Caution:

Do not use rechargeable batteries (nickel-cadmium battery, etc.).

Installing the batteries incorrectly may cause the unit to malfunc-

tion.

Notes concerning use:

Replace the batteries if the operating distance is reduced or if the

operation becomes erratic. Purchase 2 "AA" size batteries (UM/ SUM-3, R6, HP-7 or similar). Periodically clean the transmitter on the remote control and the

sensor on the unit with a soft cloth. Exposing the sensor on the unit to strong light may interfere with

operation. Change the lighting or the direction of the unit. Keep the remote control away from moisture, heat, shock, and

vibrations.

! Test of the remote control

Check the remote control after checking all connections have been made correctly. (See pages 7 - 10.) Point the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the unit.

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 and

plug in the unit, and then turn the power on.

Note:

Maintenance

! Cleaning the tape-handling parts

Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and

tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit

which contains high voltages.

Pinch roller Erase head

Capstan Recording/Playback head

After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become mag-

netised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions carefully before use.

! 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 finish. Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunc-

tions.
