							SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE UK
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 3A fuse. Should the fuse need to 
be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked 
 or ASA and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated 
on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the mains plug and fit 
an appropriate type.
DANGER:The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of in a 
safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious electric 
shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT:The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue : Neutral Brown : Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the 
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows;
 The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
 The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
 If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
 The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Important Safety Precautions
Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP LCD colour TV product. To ensure safety and many years of trouble-
free operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Precautions carefully before using this product.
Dear SHARP Customer
Cleaning—Unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
•
Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing so can cause the product to fall, resulting in serious 
personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When mounting the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the manufacturer.
•
When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved with utmost care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
•
Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool and in a wet basement.
•
Ventilation—The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions are followed.
•
The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the LCD panel breaks.
•
Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating products (including amplifiers).
•
Do not place vases or any other water-filled containers on this product. The water may spill onto the product causing fire or electric shock.
•
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.
•
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC power cord under the TV set or other heavy items.
•
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with 921,600 thin film transistors, giving you fine picture details.Due to the very large number of pixels, a few non-active 
pixels may occasionally appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red.This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.
There is power consumption always if main plug is connected.
