aspects of battery disposal.  
This unit should only be used within the range of 5˚C -  
35˚C (41˚F - 95˚F).  
10 cm  
(4")  
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.  
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  
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures  
higher than  
temperatures.  
60˚C (140˚F) or to extremely low  
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.  
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.

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.  
iPod will not charge. Wrong iPod adaptor is  
used.  
The iPod is not making full  
contact with the iPod  
connector.  
The main unit is in stand-by  
mode.  
Using 3rd generation iPod.  
Condensation  
NO  
YES  
Correct  
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  
Maintenance  
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.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted  
soap solution, then with a dry cloth.  
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 again, and then turn the  
power on.  
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.  
Note:  
If neither operation above restores the unit, clear all the  
memory by resetting it.
