Precautions  
The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and  
shall always remain readily operable.  
General  
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.  
Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a  
well ventilated area and ensure that there is at least 10  
cm of free space along the sides, top and back of the  
equipment.  
10 cm  
10 cm  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,  
should be placed on the apparatus.  
10 cm  
Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects  
of battery disposal.  
This unit should only be used within the range of 5°C -  
35°C.  
10 cm  
Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.  
Place the speakers at least 30 cm 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.  
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.  
Do not place anything on top of the unit.  
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures  
higher than 60°C 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.  
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. Listen to music at  
moderate levels. Excessive sound pressure from  
earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.

Please make sure to set iPod unit to either NTSC or PAL to  
match your TV signal. Please visit Apple’s homepage for  
further information.  
Note:  
Placing the aerial on the unit or near the AC power lead  
may cause noise pickup. Place the aerial away from the  
unit for better reception.  
Speaker connection  
Connect the black wire to the  
minus (–) terminal, and the red  
wire to the plus (+) terminal.  
Use speakers with an impedance  
of  
4
ohms or more, as lower  
impedance speakers can damage

RRMCGA225AWSA  
Caution:  
Do not place two discs in one disc tray.  
Do not play discs of special shapes (heart, octagon, etc). It  
may cause malfunctions.  
This system can play back a standard CD, CD-R/RW in the CD  
format and CD-R/RW with MP3 or WMA files, but cannot record  
on them. Some audio CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be  
playable due to the state of the disc or the device that was used  
for recording.  
Do not push the disc tray whilst it is moving.  
If the power fails whilst the tray is open, wait until the power  
is restored.  
If TV or radio interference occurs during CD operation, move  
the unit away from the TV or radio.  
Be sure to place 8 cm disc in the middle of the disc tray.  
Due to the structure of the disc information, it takes longer to  
read an MP3/WMA disc than a normal CD (approximately 20  
to 90 seconds).  
MP3:  
MP3 is a form of compression. It is an acronym which stands  
for MPEG Audio Layer 3. MP3 is a type of audio code which  
is processed by significant compression from the original  
audio source with very little loss in sound quality.  
Notes for CD or MP3/WMA disc:  
When the end of the last track is reached during fast forward,  
“END” will appear on the display and CD operation will be  
paused. When the beginning of the first track is reached  
during fast reverse, the unit will enter the playback mode (only  
for CD).  
Rewritable multi-session discs with unfinished writing, can  
still be played.  
This system supports MPEG 1 Layer 3 and VBR files.  
During VBR file playback, time counter in the display may  
differ from its actual playback time.  
Bitrate which is supported by MP3 is 32 ~ 320 kbps.

Notes for RDS operation  
To recall stations in memory  
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean  
that the unit is faulty:  
“PS”, “No PS” and a station name appear alternately,  
and the unit does not operate properly.  
If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a  
station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function  
may not work properly.  
When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too  
weak, information like the station name may not be  
displayed.  
To specify programmed types and select stations  
(PTY search):  
You can search a station by specifying the programme type  
(news, sports, traffic programme, etc. ... see page 17) from  
the stations in memory.  
1 Press the TUNER (BAND) button on the remote control  
or FUNCTION button repeatedly on the main unit to
