SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should the
fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or
ASA
and of the same rating as above,
which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the mains
plug and fit an appropriate type.
DANGER:
The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a
safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric
shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP LCD colour TV product. To ensure safety and many years of trouble-
free operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Precautions carefully before using this product.
Dear SHARP customer
• Cleaning—Unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product.
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
• Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
swimming pool and in a wet basement.
• Do not place vases or any other water-filled containers on this product.
The water may spill onto the product causing fire or electric shock.
• Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing so can cause
the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product.
When mounting the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Use only
the mounting hardware recommended by the manufacturer.
• When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved with utmost care. Sudden stops,
excessive force and uneven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
• Ventilation—The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or
block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the
life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they
can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the
product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer’s instructions are followed.
• The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or impact
applied. If the LCD panel is broken, be careful not to be injured by broken glass.
• Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating
products (including amplifiers).
• To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV set or other heavy items.
• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.
• There is power consumption always if main plug is connected.
• Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high
voltage and other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified person to perform servicing.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you fine picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a
fixed point of blue, green or red.
This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the TV
When transporting the TV, never carry it by holding onto the speakers. Be sure to always carry the TV by two
people holding it with two hands — one hand on each side of the TV.

CAUTION
Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
• Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause
chemical leakage in old batteries.
• Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If you find
any chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth.
• The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
• If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from it.

Using external equipment
NOTE
• The cables marked with * are commercially available items.
• The PC input terminals are DDC1/2B-compatible.
• Refer to page 34 for a list of PC signals compatible with the
TV.
• Macintosh adaptor may be required for use for some
Macintosh computers.
• When connecting to a PC, the correct input signal type is
automatically detected.
This TV incorporates four typical AV Link functions
for smooth connections between the TV and other
audiovisual equipment.
One Touch Play
While the TV is in standby mode, it automatically turns
on and plays back the image from the audiovisual
source (e.g. VCR, DVD).
TV Standby
When the TV enters standby mode, the connected
audiovisual equipment (e.g. VCR, DVD) enters standby
mode as well.
WYSIWYR (What You See Is What You
Record)
When the remote control unit of the connected VCR
has the WYSIWYR button, you can automatically start
recording by pressing the WYSIWYR button.
Preset Download
Automatically transfers the channel preset information
from the tuner on the TV to the one on the connected
audiovisual equipment (e.g. VCR) via the EXT 2
terminal.
NOTE
• Refer to operation manuals of each external equipment for
the details.
• Only works when the audiovisual equipment is connected
to the EXT 2 terminal on the TV with AV Link via a fully
wired SCART.
• The use of the AV Link function is only possible if the TV-
set has enforced a complete auto-installation with the
connected audiovisual equipment (Page 8, initial auto
installation).
The availability of the AV Link function depends on
the audiovisual equipment used. Depending on the
manufacturer and type of equipment used, it is possible
that the described functions may be completely or partially
unusable.
