Welcome to the SHARP Family. We are pleased that you are now the owner of a SHARP TV/VCR Combination – built for
outstanding quality, reliability and performance.
Every SHARP TV/VCR Combination set is properly tuned and adjusted for a proper color picture and sound, and has passed
through the most stringent quality control tests at the factory. We have prepared this OPERATION MANUAL so that you may
adjust the picture and color to your personal viewing preference.
We sincerely hope that you receive the utmost satisfaction and enjoyment from your new SHARP TV/VCR Combination set for
years to come.
Please read these instructions carefully, and keep them handy for your future reference.
IMPORTANT
To aid reporting in case of loss or theft, please record the TV’s model and
serial numbers in the space provided. The numbers are located at the rear of
the TV.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS
APPLIANCE TO WET LOCATIONS.
The lightning flash with arrowhead within a triangle is
intended to tell the user that parts inside the product
are a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to
tell the user that important operating and servicing
instructions are in the papers with the appliance.
“Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of
the National Electrical Code that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground
shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.”

WARNING OF DEW FORMATION
Whenever your TV is moved from a cold to a warm environment, it is important that you plug the unit in, turn the power on and
allow it to sit for about 2 hours before attempting to play a tape.
This period will allow any dew formation to evaporate. Failure to do so may result in tape and/or video head damage.
After the 2 hours evaporation period, you may witness a “snowy” picture for the first few minutes of VCR operation. This picture
noise will disappear shortly thereafter.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL.
There are two important reasons for prompt warranty registration of your new SHARP TV/VCR Combination set. Use the
REGISTRATION CARD packed in with the set.
FIRST – WARRANTY
This is to assure that you will immediately receive the full consumer benefit of the parts, service and labor warranty applicable
to your purchase.
SECOND – CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY ACT
To assure that you will promptly receive any safety notification on inspection, modification or recall that SHARP may be required
to give under the 1972 Consumer Product Safety Act. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE IMPORTANT “LIMITED WARRANTY”
CLAUSE ON THE LAST PAGE.
WHAT IS ENERGY STAR ®
TVs and VCRs use energy both when they are on and when they are off. Americans spend more than $1 billion a year on energy
consumed by TVs and VCRs when they are not in use. The new ENERGY STAR ®models will reduce that energy “leakage”by
up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than $500 million a year in energy savings for consumers.
The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the related carbon dioxide pollution that contributes to global
warming. If every American family replaced their TVs and VCRs with ENERGY STAR ®models, it would reduce carbon dioxide
emissions by five million tons every year —equivalent to eliminating the pollution from more than one million cars.
By using ENERGY STAR ®products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy. That makes good economic
sense and its good for our environment.

Location
• For normal operation, your TV should be located in an area of the room where cool adequate ventilation is provided. Do not
place the back of the television set in a place where free airflow will be restricted.
• Any magnetic force may disturb the color picture. Make sure that magnets, electric clocks, toys using magnets or any other
magnetic substance, such as iron are kept well away from the TV set.
Power
Your TV operates on 120 Volts, 60 Hz (normal household current) and has a polarized plug. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it fail to fit, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the safety feature of
the polarized plug.
Note:
• If the set will not be used for a long period, such as during a vacation, unplug the set from the wall outlet to economize
power. (If the TV set is plugged in, a slight current still flows, even with the POWER BUTTON in the OFF position.)
• Lines and other noise may appear in TV broadcast images when an FM tuner or radio is located near the TV and both radio
and TV broadcasts are being received. Should such noise appear, turn off either the TV or the radio.
• If you are listening to an AM broadcast, turn the TV off. AM broadcast signals may not be received due to interference from
the TV.
LBefore using the television, prepare the Remote Control
To use the remote control, insert batteries first.
Insert the batteries
• With your thumb nail, pull up the slit as indicated by the arrow to remove the back cover. Insert two batteries (size “AA”). Be

OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION
•Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna.
A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna.
•Connect an outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR on the rear of the TV set.
CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION
•A 75 ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set,
screw the 75 ohm cable to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR.
•Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled,
a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/descrambler
is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. (Place your TV on channel 3 or 4, typically one of these
channels is used. If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV,
consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV
company is explained below.
Please note: RF switch equipped with position A/B (not provided) is required.
“A”position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels using the TV’s channel keys.
“B”position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler using
the converter’s channel keys.
Note:
•Consult your SHARP Dealer or Service Center for the type of splitter, RF switch or combiner that might be required.

LHow to set Closed Caption
•Your TV is equipped with an internal closed caption
decoder. “Closed Caption”is a system which allows you
to view conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV
programs and home videos as subscript on your TV screen
as shown below.
•Not all the programs
and videos will offer
closed caption.
Please look for the
“ ” symbol to
ensure that captions
will be shown.
•Closed Caption broadcast can be viewed in two modes:
CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are
available, CH1 and CH2:
The [CAPTION] mode subscripts dialogues and
commentaries of TV dramas and news programs while
allowing clear view of the picture.
The [TEXT] mode displays over the picture other various
information (such as TV program schedule, weather
forecast, etc.) that is independent of the TV programs.
Example:
Adjusting the “brightness”.

Example 1.1 : Age Based setting
Go through all select ratings and select unblocked for “AGE”.
This will automatically unblock everything.
Example 1.2 : Age Based setting
For “TV-G” select “BLOCK” for “AGE”. This will automatically block the higher age ratings “TV-
PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA” as well as “TV-G”.
Furthermore, the content ratings “D”, “L”, “S”, “V”, “FV” are automatically blocked as well for
“TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA” as well as “TV-G”.
Example 2.1 : Content Based setting
For “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA” select unblock for each content rating (“D”, “L”, “S”, “V”,
“FV”) by leaving “AGE” unblocked for “TV-PG”, “TV-14” and “TV-MA”. If you choose to unblock

Example 2.2 : Content Based setting
For “TV-PG” select “BLOCK” for only “V” (Violence). This will automatically block the higher
ratings “TV-14-V” and “TV-MA-V” (“TV-14” and “TV-MA” for Violence content only).
Please note that with these settings blocking does NOT occur. If a program is rated only “TV-
MA”; it must be rated “TV-MA-V” to be blocked.
Example 3 : Reset an Age Based setting
For “TV-14” select again “BLOCK” for “AGE”.
This will again automatically block the content ratings “D”, “L”, “S”, “V”, “FV” for “TV-MA” as well
as “TV-14”.

Note:
• Content ratings can be modified but only in the combinations indicated by an Vin the table on page 14.
• Changing a lower age rating’s content setting to “BLOCK” automatically changes the same higher age rating’s content setting
to “BLOCK” regardless of their previous settings.

previous settings.
• Any rating’s “AGE” set to unblocked must have its content settings individually set.
