or other products (including amplifiers) that produce  
heat.  
• Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable  
cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on an  
unstable base 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

PRECAUTIONS  
Precautions on viewing stereoscopic 3D images  
Notes on using Wireless LAN  
• Do not view stereoscopic 3D images if you have a history of photosensitivity, heart  
disease or poor health. This may cause the symptoms to worsen.  
• If you experience any health problems such as fatigue and discomfort while viewing  
stereoscopic 3D images, immediately discontinue viewing. Continuing viewing after  
symptoms appear may cause health risks. Take a break until the symptoms have  
completely disappeared.  
• When this player is connected to a wireless LAN network, transmissions between the  
wireless LAN adapter (supplied) and a wireless LAN compatible broadband router  
(commercially available) are carried out.  
Precautions on using Wireless LAN  
• The following devices, radio stations, etc. use the same frequency bands. Do not use  
wireless LAN near them.  
• Ages of 5–6 or over are recommended for viewing stereoscopic 3D images.  
Symptoms such as fatigue and discomfort are difficult to determine in young  
children, therefore they may suddenly become ill. When viewing 3D images with  
children, please watch for eye strain symptoms.  
• When viewing stereoscopic 3D images, take a moderate break after watching one  
title. Viewing for extended periods may cause visual strain.  
Manufacturing/scientific/diagnostic equipment such as pacemakers, etc.  
Specified low power radio stations (radio stations that do not require a license)  
If this player is used near these devices, there is a possibility that radio wave  
interference may occur. Therefore transmission may not be possible or speed may be  
reduced.  
• Mobile phones, radios, etc. use different radio frequency bands from wireless LAN,  
so there will not be any effect on the transmissions of these devices or wireless LAN  
if this player is used near them.  
However, if a wireless LAN product is placed near one of these devices, audio or  
video noise may occur due to the electromagnetic waves that emit from wireless LAN  
products.  
• Radio waves will pass through the wood, glass, etc. used in standard housing,  
however they will not pass through reinforcing bars, metal, concrete, etc. Radio  
waves will not pass through walls and floors if these materials are used.  
Precautions when cleaning this product  
• Turn off the main power and unplug the AC cord from the wall outlet before handling.  
• To clean the outer cabinet, periodically wipe it with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.).  
• For severe dirt, soak a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) in some neutral detergent  
diluted with water, wring the cloth out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe again  
with a soft, dry cloth.  
• Do not use chemicals or a chemically treated cloth for cleaning. It may damage the  
cabinet finish.

Troubleshooting  
Other  
Problem  
Possible causes and solutions  
The TV operates incorrectly.  
• Some TVs with wireless remote control capability may operate incorrectly when using the remote control of this Player.  
Use such TVs away from this Player.  
The Player heats up during use.  
• When using this Player, the console cabinet may heat up depending on the usage environment. This is not a malfunction.  
POWER (ON/STANDBY) indicator will remain lit.  
• When the AC cord is removed from the outlet, the POWER (ON/STANDBY) indicator will remain lit for a short period. This  
is normal and is not a malfunction.  
POWER  
To Reset this Player  
• If this Player receives strong interference from a source such as excessive static electricity, strong external noise, malfunction of power supply, or  
voltage caused by lightning during use or a wrong operation is sent to the Player, errors like the Player not accepting an operation may occur.  
Press and hold POWER on the Player until “  
” appears on the front panel display when the Player does not operate properly even after  
the power has been turned off. Then, after the POWER indicator is lit, turn on the power.  
• When a reset is performed while the power is on, the Player will turn off. Turn the power on again. At this point, it may take a few moments for the system processing to finish before  
the Player is ready for use. During the system processing, the BD/DVD/CD mode indicator on the front panel display of the player will blink. Once the system processing has finished,  
the indicator will finish blinking and then light up normally. You can operate the Player when the BD/DVD/CD mode indicator is lit.  
• Since all settings including the language setting stored in memory are also reset when a reset has been performed, they must be set again.  
• When the problem persists even after performing a reset, unplug the AC cord and plug it in again. If this does not solve the problem, contact the nearest service center approved by  
SHARP.

Progressive format  
Compared to the Interlace format that alternately  
shows every other line of an image (field) to create  
one frame, the Progressive format shows the entire  
image at once as a single frame. This means that  
while the Interlace format can show 30 frames/60  
fields in one second, the Progressive format  
can show 60 frames in one second. The overall  
picture quality increases and still images, text, and  
horizontal lines appear sharper.
