PRECAUTIONS
■General
●Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated area and ensure that there is at least 5 cm (2") of free space along the sides, top and back of the equipment.
●Do not use oil, solvents, petrol, paint thinners or insecticides on the unit.
●Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 60˚C (140˚F) or to extreme low temperatures.
●Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, ex- cessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generates electrical noise.
●Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it from the AC socket, since pulling the lead can damage internal wires.
●When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket as the unit contains high voltages.
Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service facility.
●Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration, and do not place anything on the top of the unit.
●If the unit malfunctions whilst in use, press the
●If an electrical storm is taking place near you, it is suggested that you disconnect the AC power lead from the AC socket for safety.
Warning:
The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than which is specified is dan- gerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing dam- age. 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 a combination of 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.
■Condensation
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD pickup, MD pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmitter LED on the remote control.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.
If this happens, leave the power on with no disc (or cassette) in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter LED with a soft cloth before operating the unit.
■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 col- lection and player.
●Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the
●Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive mois- ture.
●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.

●Before loading a tape into the cassette compartment, tighten the slack with a pen or pencil.
●Cassettes have removable tabs which prevent accidental recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab will protect the corre- sponding side from being erased. Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record again.
●When covering erasure prevention tab holes, do not cover the CrO2 and metal detection holes located between them. Otherwise, the deck will sense the tape as normal tape.
