18) Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions :
a) When the AC cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions as an
improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the product to its normal
operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance - this indicates a need for service.
19) Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required,
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics
as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
20) Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
21) Wall or ceiling mounting - When mounting the product on a wall
or ceiling, be sure to install the product according to the method
recommended by the manufacturer.
22) Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located
in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.
When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should
be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal.
23) Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system
is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Article810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regards to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
24) Protective Attachment Plug - The product is equipped with an attachment
plug having overload protection. This is a safety feature. See Instruction
Manual for replacement or resetting of protective device. If replacement
of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a replace-
ment plug specified by the manufacturer that has the same overload
protection as the original plug.
25) Stand - Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or
table. Placing the product on an unstable base 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 intructions. Use only the mounting
hardware recommended by the manufacturer.

General Information
Precautions
 General
 Please ensure that the system is positioned in a well-ventilated
area and ensure that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space
along the sides, top and back of the equipment.
 Do not place anything on top of the unit and subwoofer.
 Do not expose the system 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.
 This 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 occurs whilst turning the unit
on with the volume control setting up high, or whilst continually
listening at high volumes. Excessive sound pressure from earphones
and headphones can cause hearing loss.
 Do not place active subwoofer system on
the same surface as main unit to prevent
sound interruption during playback.
 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.

Preparation for Use
Placing the speaker system
To enjoy the surround effect, we recommend that you place each
speaker as shown to the below.
External FM aerial
Use an external FM aerial if you require better reception.
Consult your dealer.
Note:
When an external FM aerial is used, disconnect the supplied FM
aerial wire.
Note:
Front speakers and active subwoofer are not magnetically shielded
and must not be placed near the TV.
If colour variation occurs:
Turn off the TV (from the power switch).
After 15 - 30 minutes, turn the TV on again.
If the colour variation is still present:
Move the speakers further away from the TV.
If any kind of magnet or an electromagnet is placed too close to
the TV and the system, irregular colours may appear on the TV
screen.

AC power connection
After checking all the connections have been made correctly, plug
the AC power lead of this unit into the wall socket. If you plug in the
unit first, the unit will enter the demonstration mode.
Notes:
Cooling fan:
The main unit and the active subwoofer are built with a cooling fan at
the rear of the units for improved cooling. Please do not cover the
opening of the fan with any obstacles, as this will block proper
ventilation.
The unit will start the tape initialisation when plugged in to the wall
socket. During this process, an initialising sound will be heard and
the unit cannot be turned on. Wait until the process is finished.
Unplug the AC power lead from the wall socket if the unit will not
be in use for a prolonged period of time.
