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.

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 flat "twin-lead" cable that can be attached
to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter.
NOTICE
F-type connector should be finger-tightened only.
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.)

Preparation
Using the Remote Control Unit
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the
remote control sensor on the TV. Objects between
the remote control unit and the remote control
sensor may prevent proper operation.

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 it 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.
QUICK REFERENCE
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.
• 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 find 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.
* The angle is 6º when the
stand is attached.
