PRECAUTIONS  
Care of compact discs  
General  
Do not use oil, solvents, gasoline, paint thinners or insec-  
ticides on the unit.  
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. Signals are read from the non-label side.  
Do not mark this surface.  
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher  
than 140˚F (60˚C) or to extreme low temperatures.  
Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic  
fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical  
equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which  
generates electrical noise.  
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and ex-  
cessive moisture.  
Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it  
from the AC outlet, as pulling the cord can damage internal  
wires.  
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 center, along the radius.  
When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc, remove the  
AC power plug from the AC outlet as the unit contains  
high voltages.  
Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in  
electric shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP  
service facility.  
Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration,  
and do not place anything on the top of the unit.  
NO  
If the unit does not work properly while in use, disconnect  
the AC power cord from the AC outlet. Plug the AC power  
cord back in, and then press the ON/STAND-BY button to  
turn the power on.  
If an electrical storm is taking place near you, it is sug-  
gested that you disconnect the AC power cord from the  
AC outlet for safety.  
YES  
Correct  
Cassette tape  
Warning:  
The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this  
unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than 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.  
For playback, use normal or low-noise tape for the best  
sound. (Metal or CrO2 tape is not recommended.)  
For recording, use only normal tape.  
Do not use C-120 tapes, tapes with large diameter reels,  
or poor-quality tapes, as they may cause malfunctions.  
Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment,  
tighten the slack with a pen or pencil.  
Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental  
recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab  
will protect the corresponding side from being erased.  
Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record  
again.  
Volume control  
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on a  
combination of speaker efficiency, location and various other  
factors.  
It is advisable to avoid exposure to high volume levels, which  
occur while turning the unit on with the volume control setting  
up high, or while continually listening at high volumes.  
TAPE 1: Playback only.  
TAPE 2: Playback or record.  
Condensation  
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an ex-  
tremely humid environment may cause condensation inside  
the cabinet (CD pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmit-  
ter LED on the remote control.  
Side A (1)  
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.  
If this happens, leave the power on with no disc (or cassette)  
in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour).  
Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter LED with a soft  
cloth before operating the unit.

Wrong connection may damage the main unit or the speakers.  
Model CP-BA2100 is the exclusive speaker for the CD-  
BA2100.  
Do not use it for other models.  
Besides, do not connect other speakers to the CD-BA2100  
speaker terminals.  
Such connections can damage the main unit.  
Do not mistake the right channel for the left channel when  
connecting the speakers to the unit.  
The right speaker is the one on the right side when you are  
facing the front of the unit.  
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this  
may damage the amplifier and/or speakers.  
Do not stand or sit on the speakers. If the speakers fall or  
collapse, you may be injured.

Example: left channel only  
This product drives the built-in subwoofer unit and the speaker  
unit composed of the super tweeter, tweeter and woofer for  
mid-to-high range frequencies with independent amplifiers  
which have individual frequency characteristics.  
As a result, both units can avoid the sound interference and  
can create clear sound.

Notes:  
Do not place the antenna on the main unit as it may result in  
noise pickup from the internal digital electronics.  
Place the antenna away from the unit for better reception.  
If the AM loop antenna and the FM antenna wire are placed  
near the AC power cord, interference may result.  
Do not connect the attached FM antenna to an outdoor FM  
antenna. Otherwise, trouble may occur.  
Connecting the AC power cord  
After connecting the speakers, plug the AC power cord into a  
convenient AC outlet.

MAINTENANCE  
Internal care  
TAPE 1  
Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound  
and tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab mois-  
tened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl  
alcohol.  
After long use, the deck’s heads and capstans may become  
magnetized, causing poor sound. Demagnetize these parts  
once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a com-  
mercial tape head demagnetizer. Read the demagnetizer’s in-  
structions carefully before use.  
TAPE 2  
In order to ensure proper operation of the CD player, preven-  
tative maintenance (cleaning of the Laser Pick-up lens) should  
be performed periodically in order to keep the lens dust-free.  
Lens cleaners are commercially available. Contact your local  
CD software dealer for options.  
External care  
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted  
soap solution, then wipe with a dry cloth.  
Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other chemi-  
cals.
