„General

zPlease ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well-venti-
lated area and that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space along
the sides and back. There must also be a minimum of 30 cm
(12") of free space on the top of the unit.
zUse the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
zKeep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields,
excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment
(home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generates electrical
noise.
zDo not place anything on top of the unit.
zDo not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than
60°C (140°F) or to extremely low temperatures.
zIf your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power
lead from the wall socket. Plug the AC power lead back in, and
then turn on your system.
zIn case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safety.
zHold the AC power plug by the head when removing it from the
wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage internal wires.
zDo not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric
shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service
facility.
zThe ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation
openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains,
etc.
zNo naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be
placed on the apparatus.
zAttention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of bat-
tery disposal.
zThis unit should only be used within the range of 5°C - 35°C

Warnings:
zThe voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit.
Using this product with a higher voltage other than that which is

to run at a specified volume level for better heat radiation.

„Volume control

The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker effi-
ciency, 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 lis-
tening at high volumes.

„Condensation

10 cm (4")
10 cm (4") 10 cm (4")
30 cm (12")
Sudden temperature changes, storage or
operation in an extremely humid environ-
ment may cause condensation inside the
cabinet (CD pickup, etc.) or on the transmit-
ter on the remote control.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunc-
tion. If this happens, leave the power on with
no disc in the unit until normal playback is
possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any con-
densation on the transmitter with a soft cloth
before operating the unit.
