• Do not place your Unit in enclosed spaces or do

not cover it to prevent excessive temperatures
inside the unit.

• Do not place the Unit in direct sunlight, or near heat

sources.

• Keep the Unit away from strong magnetic fields, i.e.

loudspeakers etc.

• Do not place any object containing water or other

liquids on the Unit. In the event that liquid should
enter the cabinet, unplug the Unit immediately and
contact the retailer or service centre approved by
SHARP immediately.

• Do not remove the Unit cabinet. Touching parts

inside the cabinet could result in electric shock and/
or damage to the Unit. For service and adjustment
inside the cabinet, call a qualified dealer or service
centre approved by SHARP.

When the unit is not being used, switch the unit to the
Standby mode.
When left unused for a long period of time, the unit
should be unplugged from the household AC socket.

Do not put any foreign object on the disc tray.

Place the unit in a horizontal position, and do not
place anything heavy on it.

Moisture may form on the pickup lens in the following
conditions:

• immediately after a heater has been turned on.

• in a steamy or very humid room.

• when the unit is suddenly moved from a cold

environment to a warm one.

If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not operate
properly.
In this case, turn on the power and wait about one
hour for the moisture to evaporate.

Unplug your Unit before cleaning. Use a damp cloth
for cleaning. Do not use cleaning fluids or aerosols
which could enter the unit and cause damage, fire, or
electrical shock. These substances may also deterio-
rate the finish of your Unit.

Depending on the reception condition of the TV,
interference may appear on the TV monitor while you
watch a TV broadcast and the unit is left on. This is
not a malfunction of the unit or the TV. To watch a TV
broadcast, turn off the unit.

Do not attempt to service this Unit yourself. Please
refer any service to the nearest service centre
approved by SHARP.

Recording and playback of any material may require
consent.

in which the Unit is used. Contact your authorized
Sharp supplier for details.

Do not attempt to clean the pickup lens yourself.
