NOTE

Reset

If this Player receives strong interference from a source such as excessive static electricity, strong external noise, malfunction of power supply, or voltage caused by lightning during use or a wrong operation is sent to the Player, errors like the Player not accepting an operation may occur. Press and hold POWER on the

Player until “” appears on the front panel display when the Player does not operate properly even after the power has been turned off. Then, after the STANDBY indicator is lit, turn on the power.

When a reset is performed while the power is on, the Player will turn off. Turn the power on again. At this point, it may take a few moments for the system processing to finish before the Player is ready for use. During the system processing, the BD/DVD/CD mode indicator on the front panel display of the Player will blink. Once the system processing has finished, the indicators will finish blinking and then light up normally. You can operate the Player when the BD/DVD/CD mode indicator is lit.

Since all settings including the language setting stored in memory are also reset when a reset has been performed, they must be set again.

When the problem persists even after performing a reset, unplug the AC cord and plug it in again. If this does not solve the problem, contact the nearest service center approved by SHARP.

STANDBY indicator will remain lit.

When the AC cord is removed from the outlet, the STANDBY indicator will remain lit for a short period. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
