PRECAUTIONS

■General

●Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated area and ensure that there is at least 10cm (4") of free space along the sides and back.There must also be a minimum of 20cm (8") of free space on the top of the unit.

●Do not use oil, solvents, petrol, paint thinners or insecticides on the unit.

●Do not expose the unit to moisture, to tempera- tures higher than 60°C (140°F) or to extreme low temperatures.

●Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment (home comput- ers, facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.

●Hold the AC power plug by the head when re- moving it from the AC socket, since pulling the lead can damage internal wires.

●Do not remove the outer cover, as this may re- sult in electric shock.

Refer internal service to your local SHARP serv- ice 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 ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode, then disconnect the AC power lead from the AC socket. Plug the AC power lead back in, and then press the ON/STAND-BY button to turn the power on.

●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 speci- fied on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than which is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing damage. SHARP will not be held respon- sible 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 con- tinually listening at high volumes.

■Condensation

Sudden temperature changes, storage or opera- tion in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD pickup, MD pickup, etc.) or on the transmitter LED on the re- mote control.

Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmit- ter LED with a soft cloth before operating the unit.

Warning:

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.
