Floor
ꢁUse the unit on a firm, level surface free from
vibration.
ꢁThis unit should only be used within the range of 41˚F - 95˚F
(5˚C - 35˚C).
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.
ꢁKeep the unit away from direct sunlight,
strong magnetic fields, excessive dust,
humidity
equipment
facsimiles,
and

electronic/electrical
computers,
generate
ꢀ Volume control
electrical noise.
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, which occurs while turning the unit

ꢀ If trouble occurs
ꢀ Before transporting the unit
Remove all CDs from the unit. Make sure there is no CD in the disc
tray. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying the unit
with discs left inside can damage the unit.
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.
ꢀ Care of compact discs
If such a problem occurs, do the following:
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.

2
Set the unit to the stand-by mode and turn the power on again.
If the unit is not restored in the previous operation, unplug and
plug in the unit, and then turn the power on.
Note:
ꢁ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.
If neither operation above restores the unit, clear all the memory by
resetting it.
ꢁ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.
ꢀ Clearing all the memory (reset)

Maintenance
CD-G14000
ꢀ Cleaning the tape-handling parts
ꢀ Cleaning the CD pickup lens
ꢁDirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
ꢁWhen cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit which
contains high voltages.
In order to ensure proper operation of the CD player, preventative
maintenance (cleaning of the laser pickup lens) should be
performed periodically. Lens cleaners are commercially available.
Contact your local CD software dealer for options.
ꢀ Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap
solution, then with a dry cloth.
