
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 dam-
age internal wires.

General Information
Precautions / Accessories
Precautions (continued)
Warning:

The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this prod-
uct 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.

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.

This product is equipped with a cooling fan on its back for better heat radiation.
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.
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 enjoy-
ment from your CD collection 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.

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.
Accessories
Please confirm that the following accessories are included.
Note:
Only the above accessories are included.

When an external FM aerial is used, disconnect the supplied FM aerial wire from the FM
75 OHMS terminal.

When using an external AM aerial, be sure to keep the wire of the AM loop aerial con-
nected.
Speaker connection
Connect the wire with the black line to the (-) and transparent one to the (+) .
Caution:

Connect the speaker wires to the speakers first, then to the unit.

Use speakers with an impedance of 6 ohms or more, as lower impedance speak-
ers can damage the unit.

Do not mistake the right and the left channels. The right speaker is the one on the
right side when you face the unit.

Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other.

Do not stand or sit on the speakers. You may be injured.
Connect the FM aerial wire to the FM 75 OHMS
terminal and position the FM aerial wire in the di-
rection where the strongest signal can be re-
ceived.
Connect the AM loop aerial wire to
the AM and GND terminals. Position
the AM loop aerial for optimum re-
ception. Place the AM loop aerial on
a shelf, etc., or attach it to a stand or
a wall with screws (not supplied).

To mount the speakers on the wall
The design of the speakers allows them to be hung on the wall. Be sure to use the type and
size of screw that is shown below.
1Drive one screw into the wall for each speaker as shown in the
illustration.

Make sure that both screw and the wall can support a load of 20 kg (45 lbs.).

Drive the screws, so there is about a 5 mm (3/16") space between the wall and the
head of the screw.
2Mount the speaker on the wall so that the screw head is inserted
into the slot on the speaker.

System Connections
Setting the AC voltage selector
Check the setting of the AC voltage selector located on the rear panel before plug-
ging the unit into an AC socket. If necessary, adjust the selector to correspond to the
AC power voltage used in your area.
Turn the selector with a screwdriver until the appropriate voltage number
appears in the window (110 V, 127 V, 220 V or 230 V - 240 V AC).
Connecting the AC power lead
After making all connections, plug the unit. If you plug the unit first, the unit
will enter the demonstration mode (see page 16).
Notes:

Plug the AC power lead into an AC socket, after any connections.

Unplug the AC power lead from the AC socket if the unit will not be in use for a pro-
longed period of time.
AC Plug Adaptor
In areas (or countries) where an AC socket as shown in illustration is used, con-
nect the unit using the AC plug adaptor supplied with the unit, as illustrated. The AC
plug adaptor is not included in areas where the AC wall socket and AC power plug
can be directly connected (see illustration ).
Note for users in Australia and New Zealand:
An AC plug adaptor is not supplied if the lead has an Australian Standard plug.

Setting the FM/AM span selector
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has established that member coun-
tries should maintain either a 100 kHz or a 50 kHz interval between broadcasting fre-
quencies of FM stations and 10 kHz or 9 kHz for AM station. The illustration shows
the 50/9 kHz zones (regions 1 and 3), and the 100/10 kHz zone (region 2).
Before using the unit, set the SPAN SELECTOR switch (on the rear panel) to the
interval (span) of your area.
To change the tuning zone:
1Unplug the AC power lead from the AC socket.
2Set the SPAN SELECTOR switch (on the rear panel) as follows.

For 50 kHz FM interval (9 kHz in AM) 50/9

For 100 kHz FM interval (10 kHz in AM) 100/10
3Plug the AC power lead to the AC socket.
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock, timer settings,
tuner preset, and CD or MiniDisc programme.
