Precautions  
XL-MP2H  
Warnings:  
General  
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 ac-  
cident 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.  
Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated  
area and that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space along the  
sides and back. There must also be a minimum of 10 cm (4") of  
free space on the top of the unit.  
10 cm (4") 10 cm (4")  
10 cm (4")  
CD players use a laser pickup which can damage the eyes if  
viewed directly. Do not look at the pickup, and do not touch  
the pickup directly.  
10 cm (4")  
Volume control  
Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.  
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.  
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker effi-  
ciency, location, and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid ex-  
posure to high volume levels. Do not turn the volume on to full at  
switch on and listen to music at moderate levels.  
Do not place anything on top of the unit.  
Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than  
60˚C (140˚F) 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.  
The AC power plug is used as disconnect device and shall always  
remain readily operable.  
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 collec-  
tion 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.  
Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric  
shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service fa-  
cility.  
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.  
The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation  
openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains,  
etc.  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be  
placed on the apparatus.  
Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery  
disposal.  
NO  
YES  
Correct  
The apparatus is designed for use in moderate climate.  
This unit should only be used within the range of 5˚C - 35˚C  
(41˚F - 95˚F).

Maintenance

Cleaning the CD pickup lens  
Cleaning the tape-handling parts  
Dirty head, capstan or pinch roller can cause poor sound and tape  
jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with com-  
mercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.  
When cleaning the head, pinch roller, etc., unplug the unit which  
contains high voltages.  
Do not touch the laser pickup lens. If  
finger prints or dust accumulate on  
the pickup, clean it gently with a dry  
cotton swab.

lution, then with a dry cloth.  
D Pinch roller  
Caution:  
Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It  
may damage the cabinet finish.  
Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunc-  
tions.  
After long use, the deck’s head and capstan may become magne-  
tised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every  
30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape  
head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser’s instructions care-  
fully before use.
