REGARDING BATTERY CARE
•Charge the battery only at temperatures within the range of
50°F to 86°F (10°C to 30°C) (temperatures that are comfort-
able for people). At lower temperatures it becomes more
difficult to charge the battery and the battery deteriorates. It is
not possible to sufficiently charge the battery at high tempera-
tures.
• The battery may become hot during charging or during use,
but this is not a sign of malfunctioning.
• It may take more time to fully charge a hot battery.
Precautions to be Taken during Charging
Regarding Operating Time and Use under Low Temperatures for the Battery
•The battery has a certain life expectancy. The battery is
consumed as time elapses even if the battery is not used. A
battery that has been used for about a year may give you less
operating time depending on the conditions under which it
was stored. If a battery that has been charged correctly
operates for a much shorter time than usual, it has reached
the end of its life and must be replaced with a new battery.
•When the battery is at a low temperature (lower than 50°F
(10°C)) in winter, the operating time may be very short. The
battery undergoes an internal chemical reaction in order to
generate electricity. When the temperature outside is lower,
the chemical reaction becomes less vigorous and operating
time becomes shorter.
How to Get the Most out of the Battery
•Turn off the power supply frequently when not in use in order to give the battery longer life.
•The battery is consumed as time elapses even if the battery is
not used. To prevent consumption;
(1) If the battery will not be used for a long time, use the
product to run down what is left of the battery charge and
set “BATTERY CHARGE” to “OFF” in the menu screen.
(Refer to page 28.)
(2) Make sure to use the battery at least once every six
months.
Storage Precautions
Charge the battery before use.

•The battery used in the product is a lithium-ion battery. Even if
the battery is charged and stored, the amount of charge in the
battery will drop.
• Make sure to charge the battery until the CHARGE indicator
of the product goes off (fully charged). The operating time is
shortened when using a battery which has not been fully
charged. (For a detailed description of how to charge the
battery, refer to page 20.)
Battery Specification

REGARDING BATTERY CARE (Continued)
Prohibited use for which safety is not guaranteed.
•Do not try to disassemble or modify the battery. The battery
contains safety mechanisms and protection devices.
Damaging these safety devices may cause the battery to
generate heat or smoke, or to rupture or ignite.
•Do not connect the + and – terminals together with metal
such as wires. Do not carry or store the battery together
with metal objects such as necklaces and hairpins. Doing
so may cause the battery to be short-circuited so as to
cause an extremely large amount of electric current to flow,
which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke,
rupture or ignite, or may cause metal objects such as wire,
necklaces, or hairpins to heat up.
•Do not expose batteries to fire or heat. Doing so may cause
insulating materials to melt, damage gas exhaust valves or
safety mechanisms, or ignite electrolytic solutions, which
may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture
or ignite.
•Do not leave the battery in or near fire, stoves, or other
high-temperature locations (of temperatures greater than
140°F (60°C)). If a resin separator is damaged by heat, the
battery may become internally short-circuited and this may
cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or
ignite.
•Do not expose the battery to water or salt water, or allow
the battery to get wet. If the protection device contained in
the battery is broken, this may cause the battery to gener-
ate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Do not charge the battery near a fire or in direct sunlight. If
the battery becomes hot, the protection device for prevent-
ing danger operates to disable the battery from being
charged. If the protection device contained in the battery
becomes broken, the battery is charged at an abnormal
electric current or voltage. An abnormal chemical reaction
occurs inside the battery which may cause the battery to
generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Charge the battery in compliance with the specified charg-
ing conditions. If the battery is charged without compliance
to the charging conditions (at temperatures greater than the
specified temperature, at voltages and electric current
greater than the specified amount or with modified charg-
ers), the battery may be overcharged or charged at an
abnormal electric current and an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur inside the battery, which may cause the
battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Do not pierce the battery with nails, strike the battery with a
hammer, or step on the battery. Doing so may cause the
battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Do not subject the battery to strong impacts or throw it
away. If the protection device contained in the battery
becomes broken, the battery is charged at an abnormal
electric current or voltage. An abnormal chemical reaction
may then occur inside the battery, which may cause the
battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Do not use the battery if it has been considerably damaged
or deformed. This may cause the battery to generate heat
or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Do not solder directly onto the battery. Doing so may cause
insulating materials to melt, or damage gas exhaust valves
or the safety mechanism, which may cause the battery to
generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.
•Use a battery case when carrying the battery.
•Keep the battery out of reach of children.
•In the event that the fluid inside the battery gets into one’s
eye, do not rub the eye because this may cause loss of
eyesight. Rinse the eye with clean water and consult a
doctor immediately. In the event that the fluid becomes
attached to skin or clothes, wash it off with clean water
immediately as this may cause injury.

Regarding Range of Usage
■The product is limited to domestic use.
(There is a possibility that transmission distance may become short depending on the communication environment.)
■In the following cases, reception may become bad or impossible, which may cause sound and pictures to be inter-
rupted (pictures and sound are stopped), or blocks of noise to appear.
•Using the product in a reinforced concrete building such as a condominium building or a house of a metal structure.
•Using the product at locations near large-scale metallic furniture.
•Using the product in a crowd of people or close to buildings or obstacles, etc.
•Using the product at locations where magnetic fields, electrostatic and interference occur due to devices such as Bluetooth,
wireless LANs, or microwave ovens, etc. that utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product.
■Regarding reflected radio waves
•Radio waves that reach a television receiver are radio waves (direct waves) directly transmitted from a transmitter and radio
waves (reflected waves) arriving from various directions as a result of being reflected by walls, furniture, or buildings etc. There
are good and bad positions in terms of wave conditions due to the influence of these reflected waves, which may cause poor
picture reception. In this case, try changing the location of the TV receiver slightly. There are cases where pictures and sound
are distorted or interrupted due to the reflected waves as a result of a person passing over or approaching between the transmit-
ter and the television receiver.
When a signal other than a regular signal is input
•When a signal other than a regular signal that is incompatible with this unit is input, the screen may freeze, but this is not a
malfunction.
•When a signal other than a regular signal is input from the Antenna, AV-IN1, AV-IN2, or AV-IN3 terminals, reception may be bad

•A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75-ohm coaxial cable to the
set, screw the 75-ohm cable to the ANT. terminal.
•Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scram-
bled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/
descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. (Set your TV to channel 3 or 4, typically one of
these channels is used. If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing
cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your
cable TV company is explained below.
Please note: An RF switch provided with two inputs (A and B) is required (not supplied).
“A” position on the RF switch (not supplied): You can view all unscrambled channels by using the TV’s channel keys.
“B” position on the RF switch (not supplied): You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler by using
the converter’s channel keys.
CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION

POWER Indicator
When the TV is turned off with the remote control, the
Wireless Center is switched to standby (POWER indicator
is lit red). (There may be a time lag of about 5 to 6
seconds.)
Placing the Wireless Center Where You Want It
We recommend placing the Wireless Center in an area
where there are no obstructions to impede radio wave
transmission/reception.
(Do not place the Wireless Center in a box.)
Note:
•The distance for which transmission is possible between the
TV main unit and Wireless Center is about 15 meters.
However, this distance may vary depending on the location
or conditions under which the Wireless Center is used.
•If the TV main unit gets close to the Wireless Center, there
may be cases where noise appears on the screen. In this
case, keep the TV main unit away from the Wireless Center
until the noise decreases, or try to change the transmission
channel setting (page 28).
Setting up the Wireless Center
•The Wireless Center can be placed horizontally or upright.
•When placing horizontally:
The side on which the rubber feet are attached is the
bottom.
•When placing upright:
Fasten the stand to the bottom of the Wireless Center with
the screws provided.
* Failure to securely fasten the stand may cause the
Wireless Center to tip over during use.

Check the video controller correctly points to the infrared receiver
of the remote control for the external equipment ...................................................................................... 57
9. Move the TV main unit to the desired location and check for correct reception
•Correct reception may not be possible in locations where radio waves cannot reach or when other
conditions exist that obstruct the radio waves.
In this case, change the location of the receiver to a place where it receives signals correctly.
•Since the “CHANNEL” of the “TRANSMISSION SETTING” is set to “AUTO”, the viewing conditions may
improve when the setting is reset.
Note:
•When watching TV with the built-in battery in the condition in which this unit was purchased, the battery does not have
enough charge left. Use after charging the battery sufficiently. (See page 20.)
•As this unit transmits and receives video and audio signals from the Wireless Center using radio waves, operation using
the remote control will be delayed by approximately 1 second.

■Charging the Battery
Charge the battery when using for the first time (“BATTERY CHARGE” is set to “ON” (page 28)). Plug the AC adapter into a
wall outlet and the corresponding connector on the TV. The CHARGE indicator lights and charging begins. When charging is
completed, the CHARGE indicator turns off.
Note:
•General Reference for Charging Time:
When charging level has fallen to 0: About 5 hours
•General Reference for Battery Operating Time:
About 2 hours (when “BRIGHTNESS” is set to “NORMAL”)
* Operating time varies according to the conditions of use.
•Charging time refers to the amount of time required to charge a completely worn down battery.
•Charging time may be longer depending on ambient temperature, battery condition and other factors. Check to make sure the CHARGE
indicator is not lit before using.
•Operating time may be shorter depending on certain conditions such as use in cold climates.
Charging while Viewing:
The battery will be charged, while you are viewing if “BATTERY CHARGE” is set to “ON” (page 28). In this case, charging
takes about 12 hours. To preserve battery performance it is recommended that “BATTERY CHARGE” be set to “OFF” if
battery power is not in constant use.
Note:
•Charging time may be longer depending on ambient temperature, battery condition and other factors. Check to make sure the CHARGE
indicator is not lit before using.

battery status, temperature and conditions of use. This
indicator should be used as a reference for the amount of
battery power remaining.
When Battery is not Charging Properly
•If the CHARGE indicator begins to flash extremely rapidly during charging, this means that charging is not proceeding
normally.
•When the CHARGE indicator flashes at an interval of about a second during charging, the TV main unit is not in an
appropriate temperature range for charging. The temperature range for charging should be approximately between 50°F
(10°C) and 86°F (30°C).
•If the CHARGE indicator begins to flash extremely rapidly (at about 3 flashes a second) during charging, this means that
charging is not proceeding normally because the battery may malfunction. Replace the battery with the new one.
Viewing with a Home AC Wall Outlet
Plug the AC adapter of the Wireless Center and AC adapter of the TV main unit into an AC wall outlet.
•Check to make sure that the proper voltages indicated on the products are being used when plugging the AC adapters into
their respective DC terminals.
•If there is a Sharp product close to the video controller, the product may malfunction during transmission of the video
controller.
■Using the AC Adapter
•Although the AC adapters may become warm during use, this is not a malfunction.
•Do not wrap or cover the AC adapters with a blanket or similar covering. This can cause a malfunction or accident.
•Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the AC adapters. The insides of the AC adapter contain high-voltage components
that can result in the risk of electrical shock.

•If “CHANNEL” is set to “AUTO”, when switching on the power or when setting the
communication channel, a connection is automatically made to an empty channel A,
B, or C.
∗As this is not the function to automatically switch channels to an empty channel
when the reception conditions deteriorate, try to switch manually to another
channel with better reception conditions in such a case.
•This unit uses the three communication channels A, B, and C for wireless
transmission of video and audio signals.
When microwave ovens, wireless LANs, or devices using Bluetooth transmission
technology that use the same 2.4GHz frequency band are operating in the vicinity,
they may cause interference possibly making reception impossible.
In this case, changing to another transmission channel may avoid this type of
interference.

Description
Continues to be indicated as long as no signal is

Indicates no connection can be made to the
Wireless Center due to interference of radio
waves. The indication is red initially, and
changes to yellow after approximately 10
seconds. When using a fixed channel (A, B,
or C), set to “AUTO” or try switching to another
channel to connect to the Wireless Center.
Is indicated for 10 seconds, then goes out
temporarily. This operation is repeated every 10
minutes.
* Interference of radio waves denotes radio waves in the 2.4GHz frequency wave
band complying with the IEEE802.11b specifications. Since this function cannot
detect radio waves in the 2.4GHz frequency wave band other than those that
comply with the IEEE802.11b specifications, no yellow indication will appear should
such radio waves be the cause of interference.

■SETTING CLOSED CAPTION
•This TV set is equipped with an internal Closed
Caption decoder. “CLOSED CAPTION” is a
system which allows conversations, narration, and
sound effects in TV programs and home videos to
be viewed as captions on the TV screen (see the
illustration).
•Not all programs and videos will offer closed
captioning. Please look for the “” symbol to
ensure that captions will be shown.
•The Closed Caption broadcasts can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION and
TEXT. For each mode, two channels are available: CH1 and CH2.
The CAPTION mode shows subscripts of dialogs and commentaries of TV
dramas and news programs while allowing a clear view of the picture.
The TEXT mode displays various information over the picture (such as TV
program schedules and weather forecasts, etc.) that is independent of the TV
programs.

return the TV set to its previous condition.
•Closed Caption may malfunction (white blocks,
strange characters, etc.) if signal conditions are
poor or if there are problems at the broadcast
source. This does not necessarily indicate a
problem with your TV set.
•If any button is pressed to call up the On-Screen
Display while viewing a Closed Caption broad-
cast, the closed captions will disappear momen-
tarily.
•If no TEXT broadcast is being received while
viewing in the TEXT mode, the screen may
become dark and blank for some programs.
Should this occur, switch the CLOSED CAPTION
mode to “OFF”.

Adjusting V-CHIP Settings
■V-CHIP
•This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be
controlled based on FCC data. It prevents children from watching violent or
sexual scenes that may be harmful.
•Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about
the program: the MPAA rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA
rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and
content.
•Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines,
both should be adjusted for complete control.
[1] MPAA RATING
RATING Description
G GENERAL AUDIENCES. All ages admitted.
PG PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED. Some material may not be suitable
for children.
PG-13 PARENTS STRONGLY CAUTIONED. Some material may be
inappropriate for children under 13.
R RESTRICTED. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian.
NC-17 NO ONE 17 AND UNDER ADMITTED.
X X is an older rating that is unified with NC-17 but may be encoded in the
data of older movies.:
MPAA RATING
Example 1:
When PG-13 in the age-based rating is
blocked, this will also automatically block
the higher ratings R, NC-17 and X.
Example 2:
When R in the age-based rating is
blocked, this will also automatically block
the higher ratings NC-17 and X.

CONNECTION SYSTEM WITH VARIOUS WAYS OF BEING USED
Examples of Various Uses
The Wireless Center outputs pictures and sound via transmission to a television
receiver of this unit. Various manners of use are possible as it is possible to
connect your own main TV and the Wireless Center using a cable.
How the Wireless Center is used
It is possible for the same pictures and programs to be watched separately at
different locations.
It is also possible for separate pictures and programs to be enjoyed by one person
using a television on a second floor while another person is watching on a main TV
in a living room.
Even if the power supply of the Wireless Center is turned off, pictures and sound
can be received by the main TV connected to the output terminals (through) and
enjoyment is therefore possible even with a single television.
•An antenna through output, and AV-IN1 (through) output are provided at the LC-15L1U Wireless Center.
It is therefore possible for the system to be on without detriment to the advantages of using the main TV currently
being viewed. (Output also takes place when the power supply of the Wireless Center is turned off).
•Only three items of this equipment can be used in the same environment. If more are used, then it may not be
possible to watch television due to mutual interference.

Method of Using the Video Controller
A maximum of two items of video equipment can be operated using the video controller.
■Cautions regarding installation of video controller
•The position of the infrared receiver of the remote control varies depending on the manufacturer or the type of the video
cassette recorder. Generally, it is a small round-shaped part close to the liquid crystal display portion.
•Make sure that the transmitter of the video controller is facing the infrared receiver of the remote control.
•When installing the video controller, try first to transmit remote control signals from the equipment connected with the
Wireless Center to the TV main unit to find a position where the connected equipment can be operated.
Note:
Regarding video controller
•Connect the VIDEO output terminal and AUDIO output terminals of equipment to play an image to AV-IN1/2/3 on the Wireless Center
respectively. After that, connect the video controller to the video controller terminal of Wireless Center.
•When installing video controller, make sure that this transmitter is facing the infrared receiver of the remote control for the connected
equipment. It is possible to operate a connected equipment by facing the remote control for the equipment connected to the Wireless
Center toward the infrared receiver of the remote control for the TV main unit and pressing the button.
•Depending on the external equipment that is connected, you may not be able to use the remote control to operate it, as its remote control
signal is different.

How to Use AV-IN1 Output
Since a video signal received at AV-IN1 terminal is output from the MONITOR OUT terminal, it is possible to enjoy pictures
and sounds from an external equipment (such as a VCR) connected to AV-IN1 input terminal on another television while
watching television on the TV main unit.

Monitor Output for Picture and Sound Output from AV-IN2/OUT Terminal
It is possible to output picture and sound being received by this unit from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal of the Wireless Center.
Note:
•Pictures and sound you have recorded cannot be used without permission from the copyright owner, other than for personal enjoyment.
•Transmission of pictures and sound from the Wireless Center to the TV main unit may take some time. For this reason, a picture that is
slightly delayed from the actual picture is displayed on the TV main unit. When recording pictures and sound on DVD or VCR while
watching the TV main unit, it will take about one second from pressing the picture record button on the remote control until actual picture
recording starts.
•When recording pictures or watching pictures on another device via the AV-IN2/OUT terminal of the Wireless Center, “AV2-IN/OUT” is set
to “OUT ”. (See page 39.)
If the television power supply is switched “off” using the remote control when the “AV2-IN/OUT” is set to “OUT ”, the power supply of the
Wireless Center is also put into a standby state, but output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal continues. Therefore, if the main power supply of
the Wireless Center is switched off, output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal stops.
* In the following cases, the power supply is in a standby state, but output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is possible.
•When television main power is “off”.
•When the power supply button of the remote control is “off”.
•Also in cases when communication is not possible due to some fault, output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is interrupted. For the
purpose of power conservation, when output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is not being used, it is recommended that the main power of
the Wireless Center be turned off.
* Even if the main power of the Wireless Center is turned off, the antenna output and AV-IN1 are output.

•Make sure the antenna cable is properly connected.
•Bad reception could be the problem.

•The radio waves used by the product are at a high frequency, so
that there are features such as direct advance traveling, reflection,
refraction, diffraction, interference etc., similar to that of light. The
strength of the waves therefore varies depending on the location,
which may cause the pictures and sound to become unclear,
become wavy, or stop.
•Is the distance between the Wireless Center and TV main unit too
far? Use within a range that the radio waves can reach.
•Are you at a location that is particularly susceptible to electrical
noise?
•Set “DISTANCE” to “FAR”.
•The product utilizes wireless transmissions, so that fast moving
images may become distorted, but this is not a malfunction.

•Are there any devices operating in the vicinity of the product such as

utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product?
•There are good and bad positions in terms of wave conditions with
regards to the influence of obstacles and reflectors. Try changing
the location of the TV main unit slightly.
•Is the video controller connected?
•Is the transmitter of the video controller facing the infrared receiver
of the remote control for the external equipment?
•Does the external equipment work when operating the remote
control by directly facing the external equipment? (If the external
equipment is still not working, it can be considered that the battery
of the remote control has run out.)
•Depending on the external equipment that is connected, you may
not be able to use the remote control to operate it.

•The reception may be weak.
•The quality of the broadcast may also be bad.
•Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.
•Make sure the outside antenna has not been disconnected.
•Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.
•Broadcast waves may be reflected from adjacent mountains or buildings.
•There may be interference from automobiles, trains, high-voltage lines, neon
lights, etc.
•There may be interference between the antenna cable and power cable. Try
positioning them further apart.
•Is the unit receiving interference from other devices?
Transmission antennas of radio broadcasting stations and transmission antennas
of amateur radios and cellular phones may also cause interference.
•Use the unit as far apart as possible from devices that may cause possible
interference.

■ Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
•When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not
a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
•Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as
this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
(Storage temperature: –4°F to +140°F (–20°C to +60°C))
■ It is not a malfunction in the following cases.
•There are cases where reception of pictures is not good because of the distance between the TV main unit and Wireless Center, or
obstacles. Install the TV main unit and Wireless Center where you can get better pictures by changing the installation location or
removing obstacles.
•There may be bad reception of pictures if a microwave is being used nearby.
•Microwave units and the use of the so called “blue tooth function” (W LAN) on cellular phones or notebooks may impair the quality of
the transmission. If this is the case, switch these devices off.
