environment. This is not a malfunction.  
• When the AC cord is removed from the outlet, the STANDBY indicator will remain lit  
for a short period. This is normal and is not a malfunction.  
To Reset this Player  
• If this Player receives strong interference from a source such as excessive static electricity, strong external noise, malfunction  
of power supply, or voltage caused by lightning during use or a wrong operation is sent to the Player, errors like the Player not  
accepting an operation may occur. Press and hold POWER on the Player until “

a few moments for the system processing to finish before the Player is ready for use. During the system processing, the  
BD/DVD/CD mode indicator on the front panel display of the Player will blink. Once the system processing has finished, the  
indicator will finish blinking and then light up normally. You can operate the Player when the BD/DVD/CD mode indicator is lit.  
• Since all settings including the language setting stored in memory are also reset when a reset has been performed, they must  
be set again.  
• When the problem persists even after performing a reset, unplug the AC cord and plug it in again. If this does not solve the  
problem, contact the nearest service center approved by SHARP.

every other line of an image (field) to create one frame, the  
Progressive format shows the entire image at once as a single  
frame. This means that while the Interlace format can show  
30 frames/60 fields in one second, the Progressive format  
can show 60 frames in one second. The overall picture quality  
increases and still images, text, and horizontal lines appear  
sharper.
