Precautions

- Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well ventilated area and ensure that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space along the sides, top and back of the equipment.

10 cm (4") 10 cm (4") 10 cm (4") 10 cm (4)

• Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
• Place the speakers at least 30 cm (12") away from any CRT TV to avoid colour variations across the TV screen. If the variations persist, move the speakers further away from the TV. LCD TV is not prone to such variation.
• Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.
  ● Do not place anything on top of the unit.
• Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) or to extremely low temperatures.
• If 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.
• In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safety.
• Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage internal wires.

● The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and shall always remain readily operable.
- Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service facility.
● The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
- No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
● Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
● This unit should only be used within the range of 5^ C - 35^ C ( 41^ F - 95^ F).

Speaker connection

• Connect the black wire to the minus (−) terminal, and the red wire to the plus (+) terminal.
  ● Use speakers with an impedance of 4 ohms or more, as lower impedance speakers can damage the unit.
• Do not make a mistake when connecting the right and left speakers. The right speaker is the one on the right side when you face the unit.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other.
• Do not allow any objects to fall into or to be placed in the bass refl ex ducts.
• Do not stand or sit on the speakers. You may be injured.

Using the Radio Data System (RDS)

RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM stations provide. These FM stations send additional signals along with their regular programme signals. They send their station names, and information about the type of programme such as sport, music, etc.

When tuned to an RDS station, "RDS" and the station name will be displayed.

"TP" (Traffi c Programme) will appear on the display when the received broadcast carries traffi c information, and "TA" (Traffi c Announcement) will appear whilst a traffi c information is on air.

"PTYI" (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the Dynamic PTY station is received.

■ Using the Auto Station Programme Memory (ASPM)

Whilst in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will automatically search for new RDS stations. Up to 40 stations can be stored.

If you have already stored some stations in memory, the number of new stations you can store will be less.

1 Press the TUNER button on the remote control or FUNCTION button repeatedly on the main unit to select TUNER function.

2 Press and hold down the RDS ASPM button on the remote control for at least 3 seconds.

1. After "ASPM" has fl ashed for about 4 seconds, scanning will start (87.50 - 108.00 MHz).

85PM → PM 87.50...

1. When an RDS station is found, "RDS" will appear for a short time and the station will be stored in memory.

1. After scanning, the number of stations stored in memory will be displayed for 4 seconds, and then "END" will appear for 4 seconds.

00 MEM → END

To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:

Press the RDS ASPM button whilst it is scanning for stations. The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept there.

Notes:

- If the same station is broadcasting on different frequencies, the strongest frequency will be stored in memory.

● Any station which has the same frequency as the one stored in memory will not be stored.

- If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the preset memory.

- If no station have been stored in memory, "00 MEM" and "END" will appear for about 4 seconds.

- If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be stored in memory.

● The same station name can be stored in different channels.

- In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station names may temporarily be different.

Notes for RDS operation

If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the unit is faulty:

● "PS", "NO PS" and a station name appear alternately, and the unit does not operate properly.

- If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work properly.

- When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak, information like the station name may not be displayed.

- "NO PS", "NO PTY" or "NO RT" will fl ash for about 5 seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.

Notes for radio text:

● The first 8 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds and then they will scroll across the display.

- If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any radio text, "NO RT" will be displayed when you switch to the radio text position.

- Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents change, "RT" will be displayed.

To recall stations in memory

To specify programmed types and select stations (PTY search):

You can search a station by specifying the programme type (news, sports, traffic programme, etc.) from the stations in memory.

1 Press the TUNER button on the remote control or FUNCTION button on the main unit repeatedly to select TUNER function.

2 Press the RDS PTY button on the remote control.

Selected PTY code (blinking) will appear for about 6 seconds.

3 Within 6 seconds, press the ◀◀ or ▶button to select the PTY code.

Each time the button is pressed, the PTY code will appear.

4 Whilst the selected PTY code is displayed (within 6 seconds), press the RDS PTY button again.

● The unit searches the all preset stations and stops when it finds a station of the selected category then tunes into the stations. The RDS indicator lights up.

- If no programme is found in the all preset stations, "NO FOUND" appear on the display and returns to the previous station.

Notes:

- If the display has stopped fl ashing, start again from step 2. If the unit fi nds a desired programme type, the corresponding channel number will lit for about 4 seconds, and then the station name will remain it.

- If you want to listen to the same programme type of another station, press the RDS PTY button and start again from step 2. The unit will look for the next station.

• Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
• Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive moisture.
  ● Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the radius.
