will be played back. Contact your authorised Sharp supplier
for details.

NOTES:
• Remember to read the instructions along with the video
head cleaner before use.

If there is Noise Interference on the TV While a
Broadcast is being Received
Depending on the reception condition of the TV, interference
may appear on the TV monitor while you watch a TV broad-
cast and the VCR/DVD is left on. This is not a malfunction of
the VCR/DVD or the TV. To watch a TV broadcast, turn off
the VCR/DVD.
Service
Do not attempt to service this VCR/DVD yourself. Please
refer any service to the nearest service centre approved by
SHARP.
Copyright
Audio-visual material may consist of copyrighted works which
must not be recorded without the authority of the owner of
the copyright. Please refer to relevant laws in your country.
Copy Protection
This VCR/DVD supports Macrovision copy protection. On
DVDs that include a copy protection code, if the contents of
the DVD are copied using a VCR, the copy protection code
prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.
Location and Handling
• Do not cover or place the VCR/DVD in enclosed spaces to
prevent excessive temperature build up.
• Do not place the VCR/DVD in direct sunlight, or near heat
sources.
• Keep the VCR/DVD away from strong magnetic objects.
• Do not place any object containing water or other liquids on
the VCR/DVD. In the event that liquid should enter the cabi-
net, unplug the VCR/DVD immediately and contact the
retailer or service centre approved by SHARP immediately.
• Do not remove the VCR/DVD cabinet. Touching parts inside
the cabinet could result in electric shock and/ or damage to
the VCR/DVD. For service and adjustment inside the cabi-
net, call a qualified dealer or service centre approved by
SHARP.
• Depending on the use environment, the temperature of the
VCR/DVD may increase slightly. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
Nonuse Periods
When the VCR/DVD is not being used, switch the VCR/DVD
to the Standby mode.
When left unused for a long period of time, the VCR/DVD
should be unplugged from the household AC outlet.
No Fingers or Other Objects Inside
Do not put your fingers or objects on the disc tray or the cassette
compartment.
Stacking
Place the VCR/DVD in a horizontal position, and do not place
anything heavy on it.
Condensation
Moisture may form inside the VCR/DVD under the following
conditions:
• immediately after a heater has been turned on.
• in a steamy or very humid room.
• when the VCR/DVD is suddenly moved from a cold environ-
ment to a warm one.
If moisture forms inside this VCR/DVD, it may not operate
properly or damage the video cassette. In this case, turn on
the power and wait for more than two hours for the moisture
to evaporate.
Cleaning
Unplug your VCR/DVD before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning. Do not use cleaning fluids or aerosols which could
enter the VCR/DVD and cause damage, fire, or electrical
shock. These substances may also deteriorate the finish of
your VCR/DVD.
Auto Head Cleaning
• Automatically cleans video heads as you insert or remove a
cassette, so you can see a clear picture.
• Playback picture may become blurred or interrupted while
the TV program reception is clear. Dirt accumulated on the
video heads after a long period of use, or the usage of
rental or worn tapes can cause this problem. If a streaky or
snowy picture appears during playback, the video heads in
your VCR/DVD may need to be cleaned.
1. Please visit your local Audio/Video store and purchase a
good quality VHS Video Head Cleaner.
2. If a Video Head Cleaner does not solve the problem, please
refer any service to the nearest service centre approved by
SHARP.

• You will not be able to hear all of the sound being output by the VCR/DVD if you use the AUDIO cable (supplied) to a
monaural TV that has only one AUDIO input jack.
NOTES:
• Be sure that the colours of the jacks and plugs match up when connecting the cable.
• Connect the VCR/DVD directly to the TV. If you attempt to view video on a TV connected via a VCR, the copy protection
function will scramble the picture.
• If you want to listen to the audio through audio equipment, connect only the S-VIDEO or VIDEO cable to the TV.
Connecting to a TV Equipped with S-
VIDEO Input Jack (DVD only)
If your TV has no SCART input jack but has an S-VIDEO
input jack, use a commercially available S-VIDEO cable to
connect from the VCR/DVD to the TV. You will still need the
SCART cable or Round coaxial cable for VCR features. (S-
VIDEO connection is available only in DVD mode.)
Connecting to a TV Equipped with
RCA type Input Jack
If your TV has RCA type audio and video input jacks, you
may connect to EURO AV1 (TV) OUT terminal through the
SCART output adaptor (supplied). When using this connec-
tion, do not connect a decoder to the EURO AV2
(DECODER) terminal of your VCR/DVD. Other equipment,
such as a VCR or camcoder, can be connected to EURO
AV2 (DECODER) terminal. If the connected equipment has
RCA type audio and video input jacks, use a SCART input
adaptor (commercially available).
–10 –EN
CAUTION:
• Be sure to turn off the VCR/DVD and equipment to be connected before connecting.
• Read through the operation manual for the equipment to be connected.
• Be sure to keep the VCR/DVD connection cables separate from the TV antenna cable when you install the VCR/DVD,
because it may cause electrical interference when you are watching television programmes.
