■ Cautions regarding the remote control unit
 Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, 
do not expose the remote control unit to liquids, and do not 
place in an area with high humidity.
 Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct 
sunlight. The heat may cause deformation of the remote 
control unit.
 The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote 
control sensor on the TV is under direct sunlight or strong 
lighting. In such cases, change the angle of the lighting 
or the TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the 
remote control sensor.
IMPORTANT:
IF THE UNIT DOES NOT POWER ON - UNPLUG THE 
TELEVISION FROM THE OUTLET AND REPEAT THE 
INSTALLATION STEPS.
IF YOU STILL ENCOUNTER NO POWER, PLEASE CONTACT 
US AT 1-800-BE-SHARP.

Antennas
To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections 
that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, 
plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set. For connecting the antenna cable to the TV, use 
commercially available cables.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control Unit
If the remote control fails to operate TV functions, replace the batteries in the remote control unit.
1 Open the battery cover.
2  Insert two “AAA” size batteries (supplied with 
the product).
 Place the batteries 
with their terminals 
corresponding to the (
e) 
and (
f) indications in the 
battery compartment.
3  Close the battery cover.
CAUTION
Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
 Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.
 Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause chemical leakage 
in old batteries.
 Remove batteries as soon as they are worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries that come in contact with skin can cause a 
rash. If you  nd any chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth.
 The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
 If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove batteries from it.
Preparation
Connecting Antenna Cable
Connect the antenna cable to the TV using one of the methods in the illustration as shown (
1, 
2, 
3 or 
4).
1  Cable without a CATV 
converter
3 Combination VHF/
UHF antenna
4 Separate VHF/UHF 
antenna
2 VHF/UHF antenna
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector 
that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools.
2. A 300-ohm system is a  at “twin-lead” cable that can be attached 
to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter.

NOTICE
When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten F-type 
connector with tools.
If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set. (The breaking 
of internal circuit, etc.)F-type connector should be fi nger-tightened only.

Introduction to Connections
Experiencing HD Images
An HDTV without an HD source is just an ordinary TV.
To enjoy HD images on the TV, you should get HD programming from the following:
Over-the-air broadcasting via HD quality antenna
HD cable/satellite subscription
HD compatible external equipment
For information on updating to HD programming, ask your cable/satellite service provider.
Types of Connection
Image quality differs depending on the terminal used. To enjoy clearer images, check the output terminals of your 
external equipment and use its appropriate terminals for higher quality images.
For connecting the TV to external equipment, use commercially available cables.
 The illustrations of the terminals are for explanation purposes and may vary slightly from the actual products.
