SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE UK
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to
be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked
or ASA and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated
on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the mains plug and fit
an appropriate type.
DANGER: The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a
safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric
shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue : Neutral
Brown : Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows;
• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Dear SHARP customer
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 or 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 dropped or
impact applied. 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).
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or open flame 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.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, 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 TV
When moving the TV, it should always be carried by two people, using both hands, be careful not to apply
pressure to the display.
Cleaning tips
Make sure to brush off the dirt on the cloth
before cleaning the cabinet. Make sure to
spray water 4-6 times onto the cloth for this
purpose before cleaning the cabinet wiping
in one direction. After cleaning, wipe the
cabinet to remove any moisture.

the stronger signal, sorts it and places it in the list. The
weaker signal listing is placed at the bottom of the list.
TV and Radio presetting is done separately so LCN
numbers are not duplicated between the two.
If you select the Country as “Sweden” in the
“First installation” of the Setup menu, tuner
works as follows
When there is a Channel List in the data after Auto Scan,
Channel Type Selection Menu will be displayed and
available to set Channel List Type.

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
When the unit 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 unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or
near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
Storage temperature: –20°C to +60°C.
•
•
Problem
Possible Solution
No power.
•
Check if you pressed
on the TV. (See page 8.)

Check if you pressed
on the remote control unit. (See page 8.)
•
•
•

External influences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause
improper operation. In this case, operate the unit after first turning the power
off, or unplugging the AC cord and re-plugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.
•
Remote control unit does not
operate.
•
Are batteries inserted with polarity (+, −) aligned? (See page 5.)
Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)

Are wide mode adjustments made correctly? (See page 18.)
•
Strange colour, light colour, or
dark, or colour misalignment.
•
Adjust the picture tone. (See page 12.)
Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.
Check the colour system setting. (See page 15.)
•
•
•
Power is suddenly turned off.
•
The unit’s internal temperature has increased.
Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.
