Precautions about Using This Product
Do not use at locations at high
temperature.
• If you leave this equipment at a location which rises to an
abnormally high temperature (like the inside of a car with
the windows shut), this may cause deformation of the
cabinet or malfunction. Be very careful not to allow the
area around the Recorder or discs to reach a high
temperature.
• Do not place the Recorder on any equipment which gets
hot.
• Do not place at a location which is exposed to direct
sunlight, or near a heater. Be careful because doing so
will have an adverse effect on the cabinet and compo-
nents.
Do not remove the cabinets.
• Do not remove the Recorder cabinets. Touching parts
inside the cabinet could result in electric shock and/or
damage to the Recorder. For service and adjustment
inside the cabinet, please contact the nearest service
centre approved by Sharp.
Do not cover the fan or ventila-
tion holes on the back of the Re-
corder.
• When setting up the Recorder, do not cover the fan or
ventilation holes on the rear of the Recorder. This will
interfere with the cooling fan and cause malfunction. Be
especially careful of this point when housing the Recorder
in a TV stand or AV rack. Ensure that there is a gap of
approximately 5 cm (2 inch) between the back of the
Recorder and the wall, TV stand or AV rack.
Avoid dust and smoke.
• Do not place the Recorder at a location which is unstable,
subject to heavy vibration or where there is a lot of dust or
tobacco smoke. Doing so may cause malfunction or
accidents.
Set up the Recorder so it is hori-
zontal.
• Do not stand the Recorder up vertically or place it upside
down. Doing so will cause malfunction.
Do not place objects on the Re-
corder.
• Do not place any objects, such as vases or lighted
candles on the top of the Recorder.
• Set up at a location where there is adequate space above
the Recorder.
• Do not place a TV or other heavy object on the Recorder.
Doing so may result in problems like noise appearing on
the screen, or deformation of the cabinet.
Keep away from magnetic ob-
jects.
• Keep the Recorder away from strong magnetic objects.
Handle the Recorder carefully.
• Do not drop the Recorder, or subject it to strong impact or
vibration. Doing so will cause malfunction. Be careful
when carrying or moving the Recorder.
No fingers or other objects inside
• Do not put any foreign object on the disc tray.
When moving or shipping the
Recorder
• Please remove any discs before packing the Recorder. If
you are not using the Recorder for long periods, remove
any discs and turn off the power.
Dew formation
• Dew may form on the surface of and inside the Recorder
if you suddenly carry it from a cold location to a warm
location, or use it in a cold room where heating has just
been turned on (i.e. on a winter morning). If dew forms,
let the Recorder sit with the power off until the dew
disappears. Using the Recorder with dew formation
present may cause malfunction. (Page

• Do not use the Recorder on carpets, or on a bed or sofa,
or wrap the Recorder in cloth or other material. This will
interfere with the cooling fan and cause malfunction.
