We sincerely hope that you receive the greatest satisfaction and enjoyment from your new SHARP Color
Television set for years to come.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
There are two important reasons for prompt warranty registration of your new SHARP television set. Use
the REGISTRATION CARD packed in with the set.
FIRST – WARRANTY
This is to assure that you will immediately receive the full consumer benefit of the parts, service and labor
warranty applicable to your purchase.
SECOND – CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY ACT
To assure that you will promptly receive any safety notification on inspection, modification
or recall that
SHARP may be required to give under the 1972 Consumer Product Safety Act. PLEASE READ
CAREFULLY THE IMPORTANT “LIMITED WARRANTY” CLAUSE ON THE LAST PAGE.
WHAT IS ENERGY STAR
®
TVs and VCRs use energy both when they are on and when they are off. Americans spend more than $1
billion a year on energy consumed by TVs and VCRs when they are not in use. The new ENERGY
STAR
®
models will reduce that energy “leakage” by up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than
$500 million a year in energy savings for consumers.
The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the related carbon dioxide pollution
that contributes to global warming. If every American family replaced their TVs and VCRs with ENERGY
STAR
®
models, it would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by five million tons every year — equivalent to
eliminating the pollution from more than one million cars.
By using ENERGY STAR
®
products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy. That
makes good economic sense and it’s good for our environment.
