IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
18) Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions :
23) Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system
is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Article810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regards to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
a) When the AC cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions as an
improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the product to its normal
operation,

Precautions
XL-DK227N
ꢀ General
ꢁHold the AC power plug by the head when
removing it from the AC outlet, as pulling
the cord can damage internal wires.
ꢁThe AC power plug is used as a disconnect
device and shall always remain readily
operable.
ꢁPlease ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well-ventilated
area and ensure that there is at least 4" (10 cm) of free space
along the sides, top and back of the equipment.
4" (10 cm) 4" (10 cm)

ꢁDo not remove the outer cover, as
this may result in electric shock.
Refer service to your local SHARP
service facility.
Docking Station
MICRO COMPONENT SYSTEM
4" (10 cm)
ꢁUse the unit on a firm, level surface free from
vibration.
ꢁThis unit should only be used within the range of 41˚F - 95˚F
(5˚C - 35˚C).
Warning:
ꢁKeep the unit away from direct sunlight,
strong magnetic fields, excessive dust,
humidity and electronic/electrical
equipment (home computers, facsimiles,
etc.) which generate electrical noise.
The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit.
Using this product with a higher voltage other than that which is
specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of
accident causing damage. SHARP will not be held responsible for
any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than
that which is specified.
ꢁDo not place anything on top of the unit.
ꢁDo not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures higher than
140˚F (60˚C) or to extremely low temperatures.
ꢁIf your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power
cord from the AC outlet. Plug the AC power cord back in, and then
turn on your system.
ꢁIn case of an electrical storm, unplug the
unit for safety.
ꢀ Volume control
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker
efficiency, location and various other factors. It is advisable to avoid
exposure to high volume levels, which occurs while turning the unit
on with the volume control setting up high, or while continually
listening at high volumes. Excessive sound pressure from earphones
and headphones can cause hearing loss.
