Precautions
„General
zPlease ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well-ventilated area and
ensure that there is at least 20 cm (8") of free space along the sides, top and back
of the equipment.
zDo not place anything on top of the unit.
zDo not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) or to
extremely low temperatures.
zIf 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.
zNo naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the appa-
ratus.
zAttention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
zThe apparatus is designed for use in moderate climate.
zThis unit should only be used within the range of 5°C - 35°C (41°F - 95°F).
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.
„Volume control
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 occur whilst turning the unit on with the volume control setting up high, or
whilst continually listening at high volumes.
20 cm (8") 20 cm (8") 20 cm (8") 20 cm (8")
zUse the unit on a firm, level surface free from
vibration.
zKeep the unit away from direct sunlight,
strong magnetic fields, excessive dust, hu-
midity and electronic/electrical equipment
(home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which
generates electrical noise.
zIn case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit
for safety.
zHold the AC power plug by the head when re-
moving it from the wall socket, as pulling the
lead can damage internal wires.
zDo not remove the outer cover, as this may
result in electric shock. Refer internal ser-
vice to your local SHARP service facility.
zThe ventilation should not be impeded by cov-
ering the ventilation openings with items, such
as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

General Information
-Precautions/Accessories-
„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 collection and player.
zDo not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label side from which
signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
zKeep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive moisture.
zAlways 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.
„Cassette tape
zFor playback, use normal or low-noise tapes for the best sound. (Metal or
CrO tapes are not recommended.) For recording, use only normal tapes.
zDo not use C-120 tapes or poor-quality tapes, as they may cause malfunctions.
zBefore loading a tape into the cassette compartment, tighten the slack with a pen
or a pencil.
Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental recording or erasing.
Removing the tab will protect the corresponding side. Cover the tab holes with adhe-
sive tape to erase or record again.

Each speaker unit has a built-in subwoofer (low frequency range) which is driven sep-
arately from the woofer and tweeter (mid-to-high frequency range). Two independent
amplifiers which have individual frequency characteristics are used. By amplifying
separately the two frequency bands, clearer sound is achieved.
