Many potential problems can be resolved by the owner without
calling a service technician.
If something is wrong with this product, check the following
before calling your authorized SHARP dealer or service center.
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely
humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet or
on the transmitter on the remote control. Condensation can cause
the sound bar to malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on
until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any
condensation on the transmitter with a soft cloth before operating the
sound bar.
When this product is subject to strong external interference
(mechanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply
voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may
malfunction.
If such a problem occurs, do the following:
1. Set the sound bar to the stand-by mode and turn the power on
again.
2. If the sound bar is not restored in the previous operation, unplug
and plug in the sound bar again, and then turn the power on.
Make sure to disconnect all output and input cables attached to the
sound bar before performing the factory reset.
