Precautions For Daily Use
Observe the following items
Maintenance of the cabinet
• When cleaning the cabinet, use a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) to clean gently.
• Do not use a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals, as this could cause the ingredients of the cabinet body to deteriorate or
crack.
• Be careful not to use an abrasive cloth for cleaning or clean with excessive force, as this could scratch the surface of the
cabinet.
• If the cabinet is greatly soiled, clean with a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of diluted neutral
detergent and wrung out, and then clean with a soft dry cloth.
• Solvents such as benzene or thinner could cause the cabinet to deteriorate, or make its coating come off. Therefore do not use
such solvents to clean the cabinet.
• Because plasticizer is included in the plastics, deterioration or the coating peeling off could occur when the cabinet comes into
contact with some substances. Therefore keep it away from volatile substances such as insecticide. In addition, do not let it
come into contact with objects made of rubber, resin, etc. for a long time.
Maintenance of the LCD panel
• Before cleaning the LCD panel, be sure to turn off the TV set and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
• When cleaning the LCD panel, use a dry and soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) to clean the surface of the LCD panel gently.
For protecting the LCD panel, do not clean with a dirty cloth, detergent, or a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals, as this
could cause peeling of the panel surface.
• Be careful not to clean with an abrasive cloth or with excessive force, as this could cause the panel surface to be scratched.
• If the LCD panel is greatly soiled, clean it gently with a soft cloth (made of cotton, floss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of
water (Do not clean with excessive force, so as to avoid the scratch of the panel surface).
• If dust sticks on the surface of the LCD panel, clean the panel with a commercially available cleaning brush (anti-static brush).
Important safety precautions
Caring for the cabinet
• Use a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) and gently wipe the
surface of the cabinet.
• Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may
deform the components of the main unit cabinet or cause
cracking.
•Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch
the surface of the cabinet.
• If the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth (cotton,
flannel, etc.) soaked in neutral detergent diluted with water
and thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe with a soft dry
cloth.
• The cabinet is primarily made of plastic. Avoid using
benzene, thinner, and other solvents, as these may deform
the cabinet and cause the paint to peel off.
• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.
• Also, do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact
with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time.
Plasticizers inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to
deform and cause the paint to peel off.
• 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.
Caring for the front panel
• Turn off the main power and unplug
the AC cord from the wall outlet
before handling.
• Gently wipe the surface of the front
panel with a soft cloth (cotton,
flannel, etc.).
• To protect the front panel, do not
use a dirty cloth, liquid cleaners, or
a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type
cloth, etc.). This may damage the
surface of the front panel.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using
strong force may scratch the surface
of the front panel.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe
the front panel when it is really dirty
(It may scratch the surface of the
front panel when wiped strongly).
• If the front panel is dusty, use
an anti-static brush, which is
commercially available, to clean it.
• 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.

Introduction
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• In case the product is dropped and
the cabinet is damaged, be sure to
turn off the power of the product,
and unplug the power cord. If you
continue to use the product, it may
cause fire or electric shock. Contact
your dealer.
• Do not open the rear cover of the
cabinet to reconstruct the circuits.
There exists high voltage within the
cabinet and it may cause electric
shock and injury. If maintenance is
required, contact your dealer.
• The LCD panel used in this product
is made of glass. Therefore, it can
break when the product is struck
forcefully or with a sharp object. If
the LCD panel is broken, be careful
not to be injured by broken glass.
• Heat sources — Keep the product
away from heat sources such as
radiators, heaters, stoves and other
heat-generating products (including
amplifiers).
• 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.
• Do not place heavy objects on
this product or stand on it.
Doing so could cause injury if the
product overturns. Take special
care near children and pets.
• Unplug the power cord before you
move the TV set. If not unplugged
beforehand, the power cord may
become damaged and cause
electric shock.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with
2,073,600 pixels, giving you fine picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few
non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point
of blue, green, red or yellow.
This is within product specifications and does not constitute
a fault.
Precautions when transporting the TV
• When transporting the TV, never
carry it by holding or otherwise
putting pressure onto the display.
Be sure to always carry the TV by
two or more people (80 inch: three
or more people) holding it with two
hands — one hand on each side of
the TV.
If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location,
it can be potentially hazardous due to falling.
Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by
taking simple precautions such as:
• Using cabinets or stands recommended by the
manufacturer of the television.
• Only using furniture that can safely support the television.
• Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the
supporting furniture.
• Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example,
cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the
furniture and the television to a suitable support.
• Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials
placed between the television and supporting furniture.
• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on
furniture to reach the television or its controls.
• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could
cause an afterimage to remain.
• Install the product on the place where the AC cord can
be unplugged easily from the AC outlet, or from the AC
INPUT terminal on the rear of the product.
NOTE
• The above are pictures for reference only; the actual item
might be different.

Quick guide
Inserting the CA card into the CI
module
In order to receive coded digital stations, a common
interface module (CI module) and a CA card must be
inserted in the CI slot of the TV.
1Carefully insert the CI module in the CI slot with
the contact side forward.
2The logo on the CI module must be facing outward
from the rear of the TV.
EChecking CI module information
Go to “HOME” > “TV Menu” > “Setup” >
“Option” > “CI setting” > “CI menu”.
• This menu is only available for digital stations.
• The content of this menu depends on the provider of the
CI module.
Module
General information on CI module displays.
Menu
Adjustment parameters of each CA card displays.
Enquiry
You can input numerical values such as passwords here.
NOTE
• It takes a few minutes to certify the licence key when you
insert a CA card into the CI+ compatible CI module for the
first time. This process may fail when there is no antenna
input or you have never run “Auto installation”.
• The CI+ compatible CI module sometimes upgrades its
firmware. You may not receive any TV images before
upgrading. You can only use the POWER during upgrading.
• Copy protected content may not be output or may be output
with a copy control signal. The protect icon* is displayed
when INFO is pressed while watching copy protected
contents.
*Protect icon: X
• If the TV displays an update confirmation message for the CA
card while receiving CI+ compatible broadcasts, follow the
screen prompts.
• Make sure that the CI module is properly inserted.
• If the old CAM is used, authentication may fail. In such cases,
contact the contracted service provider.
Recording CAM PIN setting
When a CAM PIN code is required for recording a
programme, it is necessary to enter the CAM PIN code
in advance.
1Go to “HOME” > “TV Menu” > “Setup” >
“Option” > “CI setting” > “Recording CAM PIN
setting”.
2Enter the CAM PIN code.
NOTE
• If a PIN code is not entered or is entered incorrectly, the
programme will not be able to be recorded/played back.
• Because recording is not possible when channel lock (page
45) and parental rating (page 46) settings are active, it is
necessary to deactivate both of these settings.
CI plus 1.3 Standard
CI Plus is an advanced development of the DVB
Common Interface Standard.
1Regarding security
There are some regulations in recording functions.
The playback of encrypted programmes is strongly
dependent on which CA module is used. The playback
of encrypted recordings may sometimes not be possible,
or only during limited time. Programme providers, who
use the CI Plus standard, can assign different rights for
their broadcast programmes.
Exercise caution when using USB-recording to record
broadcast programmes (Pages 52–66).
2Operator service list management (Operator
profile)
Under the 1.3 specification the CAM may provide the
channel listing parameters (channel number, frequency
etc.) and these can be updated while in use.
Refer to “Operator profile” on page 22.

What is the HOME?
You can easily launch to enjoy Internet connection and Home network function and to perform settings for the TV from
this “HOME” screen.
By connecting the TV to the internet you can enjoy a variety of broadband content.
Internet browsing on a TV behaves differently to a PC (Personal Computer). PC’s have greater web browsing
capabilities and memory plus support a wider range of functionalities and add ons – some PC viewing capability may
not be possible on a TV. In such cases an application may close or an exclamation mark (“!”) or an error message may
be displayed.
To maximise the performance of YouTube content it is highly recommended that the user can access the content via
the dedicated YouTube application on this TV.
Sharp recommends that from time to time you update your TV’s software via the internet or by downloading updates
onto a USB. Go to www.sharp.net.au and click on Customer Support, then follow the appropriate links.

Teletext
What is teletext?
Teletext broadcasts pages of information and
entertainment to specially equipped TV. Your TV receives
teletext signals broadcast by a TV network, and decodes
them into graphical format for viewing. News, weather
and sports information, stock exchange prices and
programme previews are among the many services
available.

FLOF (e.g., CNN). Your TV supports both these systems. The
pages are divided into topic groups and topics. After switching
on the teletext, up to 2,000 pages are stored for fast access.
• If you select a programme with no teletext signal, “No Teletext
available” displays.

You can enjoy 3D-supported images on this TV when you wear 3D glasses.
To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast to exactly
match alternating left and right video images displayed by the TV.
NOTE
• Refer to the operation manual of the 3D glasses for details regarding usage.
• Some menu items are greyed out in 3D mode. This is not a malfunction.
Before using the 3D glasses
• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D TV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which prevents them from
perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D programming may experience initial feelings
of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may experience headaches, eye fatigue or motion sickness. Some viewers
might also experience epileptic seizures. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.
• The 3D glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.
• Improper use of the 3D glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue use of the 3D glasses.
Using the 3D TV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can make images appear blurry or create overlapping images.
• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.
• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the left and right eyes, you should
take the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before viewing 3D images. The 3D glasses can be
worn over eyeglasses.
• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 3D glasses with respect to the TV
screen, the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear significantly different or images may appear overlapping.
• View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three times the effective height of
the TV screen.
• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear closer or farther than
they are. This may cause you to misjudge the distance and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit the screen or surrounding
objects.
• The 3D glasses are not recommended for people aged less than 6.
• When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 3D images, and if they
show signs of discomfort, immediately discontinue use of the 3D glasses.
• People with a known history of photosensitivity and people with heart problems or poor health should not use the 3D glasses. This
can worsen existing health conditions.
• Do not use the 3D glasses for other purposes (such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles).
• Do not use the 3D function or 3D glasses while walking or moving around. This may result in injuries due to running into objects,
tripping, and/or falling.
• When using the 3D glasses, take care not to accidentally strike the TV screen or other people. Viewing 3D images may cause you
to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the screen, resulting in possible injury.
• It is recommended that you do not view 3D images if you are sleep deprived or if you have been drinking alcohol.

• Do not apply pressure to the lenses of the 3D glasses. Also, do not drop or bend the 3D glasses.
• Do not scratch the surface of the lenses of the 3D glasses with a pointed instrument or other object. Doing so may damage the
3D glasses and reduce the quality of the 3D image.
• Use only the cloth provided with the 3D glasses to clean the lenses.
3D glasses infrared receiver
• Do not allow the infrared receiver to become dirty, and do not attach stickers to or otherwise cover the infrared receiver. Doing
so may prevent the receiver from operating normally.
• If the 3D glasses are affected by other infrared data communication equipment, 3D images may not be displayed correctly.
Caution during viewing
• Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones or wireless transceivers) near the 3D
glasses. Doing so may cause the 3D glasses to malfunction.
• The 3D glasses cannot operate fully at extreme high or low temperatures. Please use them within the specified usage
temperature range.
• If the 3D glasses are used in a room with fluorescent lighting, the light within the room may appear to flicker. In this case, either
darken or turn off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D glasses.
• Wear the 3D glasses correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D glasses are worn upside down or back-to-front.
• Other displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, and calculators) may appear dark and difficult to view while wearing
the 3D glasses. Do not wear the 3D glasses when watching anything other than 3D images.
• If you lie on your side while watching the TV with 3D glasses, the picture may look dark or may not be visible.
• Be sure to stay within the viewing angle and optimum TV viewing distance when watching 3D images. Otherwise, you may not
be able to enjoy the full 3D effect.
• The 3D glasses may not work properly if there is any other 3D product or electronic devices turned on near the glasses or TV. If
this occurs, turn off the other 3D product or electronic devices or keep the devices as far away as possible from the 3D glasses.
• Stop using this product in any of the following situations:
– When images consistently appear doubled while you are wearing the 3D glasses
– When you have difficultly perceiving the 3D effect
• If the 3D glasses are faulty or damaged, stop using them immediately. Continued use of the 3D glasses may cause eye fatigue,
headaches and illness.
• If you have any abnormal skin reaction, stop using the 3D glasses. In very rare instances, such reactions may be due to an
allergic reaction to the coating or materials used.
• If your nose or temples become red or you experience any pain or itchiness, stop using the 3D glasses. Pressure caused by
long periods of use may lead to such reactions and may result in skin irritation.
• You may not be able to use several menu items while you are watching the TV in 3D mode.
• You cannot use the 3D function in radio or data mode.
NOTE
• These 3D glasses are only for use with SHARP LCD TVs supporting 3D.

Mounting the TV on a wall
To use this TV mounted on a wall, remove the AC cord holder and the screws at the 4 locations on the rear of the TV,
and then use the screws supplied with the wall mount bracket to secure the bracket to the rear of the TV.
• Mounting the LCD colour TV requires special skills and should only be performed by qualified service personnel.
Customers should not attempt to do the work themselves. SHARP bears no responsibility for improper mounting or
mounting that results in accident or injury.
• You can ask qualified service personnel about using an optional bracket to mount the TV to a wall.
• When you mount the TV on a wall, you should attach the supporting post.
• Detach the AC cord holder on the rear of the TV before mounting the TV on a wall.
The wall mount kit (sold separately) allows you to mount the TV on the wall.
For detailed information on installing the wall mount, see the instructions provided with the product. We recommend
you to contact a technician for assistance when installing it.
SHARP is not responsible for any damage to the product or injury to yourself or others if you elect to install the wall
mount on your own.
CAUTION
• Install your wall mount on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor.
When you want to attach the wall mount to surfaces other than plaster board, please contact your nearest retailer/
adviser for additional information. If you install the TV on a ceiling or slanted wall, it may fall and result in severe
personal injury. Always have two people mount the TV on a wall.
