TIPS  
• Using this monitor’s screen-size switching to compress or expand the screen for commercial or public viewing in  
establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as protected by Copyright Law, so please be  
careful.  
• The appearance of the original video may change if you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original  
image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from external equipment).  
• When a non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function of this monitor, the  
edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator’s intentions, set the screen size to  
“NORMAL”.  
• When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the optimal screen  
size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be noise or distortion at the  
edges of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a malfunction.  
• Depending on the original image size, black bands may remain at the edges of the screen.

Troubleshooting  
If you are experiencing any problem with your display, before  
When “AUTO DIMMING” is displayed.  
calling for service, please review the following troubleshooting  
tips.  
When the internal temperature of the monitor rises excessively,  
the brightness of the backlight automatically decreases in  
order to prevent a further temperature rise.  
There is no picture or sound.  
• Are the AC adapter and power cord properly connected?  
(See page 13.)  
• Is the main power switch off? (See page 15.)  
• Is the monitor in standby mode (power lamp is off)? (See  
page 15.)  
If you attempt to use brightness adjustment button (  
/
) to  
adjust the brightness while the monitor is in this state, “AUTO  
DIMMING” is displayed and you cannot change the brightness.  
• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.  
The monitor makes a cracking sound.  
• If any external equipment is connected, make sure the  
equipment is operating (playing back).  
You may occasionally hear a cracking sound from the  
monitor. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands  
and contracts according to change in temperature. This  
does not affect the monitor’s performance.  
Sound from left and right speakers is reversed.  
Sound is heard from only one side.  
Are audio cables connected properly? (See page 12.)  
The Power LED is flashing in red and green alternately.  
When “TEMPERATURE” is displayed in the corner of the  
screen.  
There is a picture but no sound.  
• Is the sound muted?  
• When the internal temperature of the monitor rises  
excessively, the brightness of the backlight decreases  
automatically in order to prevent high-temperature-  
related problems. When this occurs, “TEMPERATURE” is  
displayed on the screen and the Power LED flashes red  
and green alternately. (When TEMPERATURE ALERT is  
set to OSD & LED. This varies depending on the setting.)  
• If the internal temperature rises further, the monitor  
automatically enters standby mode. (The Power LED  
continues flashing red and green alternately.)  
• Remove the cause of the excessive temperature rise.  
- If the monitor enters standby mode due to a rise in  
temperature, to return to normal display, turn the power  
switch off and then back on again. The monitor, however,  
will enter standby mode again if the cause of the  
temperature rise is not eliminated. (See page 7.)  
- Check whether the monitor is placed at a location where  
a quick rise in temperature is likely. Internal temperature  
rises quickly if the vents on the monitor are blocked.  
- Internal temperature rises quickly if dust accumulates  
inside the monitor or around the vents. Remove dust if  
possible. Ask SHARP dealer about removing internal dust.  
• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum.  
• Are audio cables connected properly?  
• Is the setting of AUDIO SELECT on the SETUP menu  
correct? (See page 20.)  
• Is the headphone (etc.) cable connected to the headphone  
terminal?  
The sound crackles.  
• Turn down the volume.  
With some input devices, the sound may crackle at high  
volume.  
Unstable video.  
• The signal may be incompatible.  
The video from DisplayPort input terminal does not  
appear properly.  
• Is the cable a certified DisplayPort cable? Use the supplied  
cable. The monitor will not work unless a standards-  
compliant cable is used.  
• Is the input signal compatible with this monitor?  
(See page 30.)  
The video does not appear properly even after the  
DisplayPort STREAM setting is changed.  
• Try restarting the monitor and computer.  
• Is the video card MST (Multi Stream) compatible? If not, set  
to SST (Single Stream).  
A residual image has occurred.  
After the image has changed, the previous image is faintly  
visible.  
• Displaying the same image for an extended time may  
cause a residual image.  
Control buttons do not work.  
To improve a residual image, keep the power off. With the  
power off state, the residual image will gradually disappear  
as time passes. If there is no improvement, display a full  
white screen or an animated image.  
There is no picture.  
• Load noises from outside may be interfering with normal  
operation. Turn off the power and turn it on after waiting at  
least 5 seconds, and then check the operation.  
• When you display the screen or clear the screen, the left  
and right screen display timing may be slightly off; however,  
this is not a problem.  
Power LED flashes red.  
“STATUS [xxxx]” appears in the corner of the screen.  
• Hardware has a problem. Turn off the monitor and request  
repair from your SHARP dealer.  
(When STATUS ALERT is set to OSD & LED. This varies  
depending on the setting.)

Power management  
n
This monitor conforms to VESA DisplayPort power management.  
DDC (plug and play)  
n
The monitor supports the VESA DDC (Display Data Channel) standard.  
DDC is a signal standard for plug and play between monitors and computers. Information about resolution and other parameters  
is exchanged between the two. This function can be used if the computer supports DDC and it has been configured to detect  
plug-and-play monitors.  
There are several types of DDC, depending on the communication method used. This monitor supports DDC2B.

Mounting Precautions  
(For SHARP dealers and service engineers)  
When installing, removing or moving the monitor, ensure  
Toppling prevention  
n
that this is carried out by at least 2 people.  
Be sure to use a wall-mount bracket designed or  
designated for mounting the monitor.  
This monitor is designed to be installed on a concrete wall  
or pillar. Reinforced work might be necessary for some  
materials such as plaster / thin plastic board / wood before  
starting installation.  
This monitor and bracket must be installed on a wall which  
can endure at least 4 times or more the weight of the  
monitor. Install by the most suitable method for the material  
and the structure.  
To attach a VESA-compliant mounting bracket, use M6  
screws that are 5/16 inch (8 mm) to 3/8 inch (10 mm)  
longer than the thickness of the mounting bracket.  
Do not use an impact driver.  
Caution  
To reduce the risk of injury and damage caused by the  
product toppling or falling in an earthquake or similar  
situation, take measures to prevent toppling and falling.  
• If the wall or platform on which the monitor is installed is  
not sufficiently strong, the effectiveness of the toppling/  
falling prevention measures will be severely compromised.  
Reinforce the wall or platform as needed.  
The toppling/falling prevention measures are intended to  
reduce the risk of injury and damage in an earthquake,  
however, the effectiveness of the measures is not  
guaranteed in all earthquakes.  
• Before implementing the toppling prevention measures,  
complete all connections.  
Secure to wall or post  
When moving the monitor, be sure to hold it with the unit  
bottom and the side of unit. Do not hold the LCD panel or  
corners. This may cause product damage, failure, or injury.  
Do not use any screw holes other than VESA holes for  
installation.  
1. Attach a commercially available eye bolt (a bolt shaped  
to allow attachment of a string or cord) to the wall or  
post.  
Verify that the eye bolt is attached firmly and does not come  
out.  
‡ꢀ7RSꢀRIꢀPRQLWRU  
Removing the attachment plate  
n
Caution  
• The attachment plate is only for use with the monitor.  
Do not use with any other devices.  
1. Spread a thick, soft cloth (blanket, etc.) that will prevent  
damage to the LCD panel on a stable flat surface where  
the entire monitor can be placed, and place the monitor  
with the LCD panel face down on the cloth.  
Commercially available eye bolt  
(bolt shaped to allow attachment of  
a string or cord)  
2. Run a commercially available cord of sufficient strength  
through the cable clamp attachments and the eye of the  
eye bolt on the wall or post to secure the monitor.  
2. Remove the screws (x4) that fasten the attachment  
plate, and remove the attachment plate.
