Where can I find the model number of a Sharp Aquos TV?

I am unable to move the television off of the wall (it is on a rigid mount and there is no chance of me getting it off) so I can't check on the back. I'm wondering where I can find the number so that I can set up my Sharp TV with my Logitech Harmony ONE remote. If this is correctly answered in the first hour I'll tip and extra buck.

Do you still keep the manual or the receipt? I believe the model number is stated in these documents. Or you can identify your model with any website selling Sharp Aquos TV, such as the website below or LCD TV brochure as the link below.

Yeah I thought of all of this was hoping for a way to go in to the software settings of the television but i've given up and just manually programmed in everything.

I found a website that stated this:

"Find your product model, . Your product's model number can be found on the front face of the product or on the serial number tag found on the side or back of the machine."

The website is full of ads, so be careful where you click, but you can find and download your user manual so that you have more information.

I've read that particular remote can be take up to an hour to program, but is well worth the trouble! Good luck!

I checked all those places and didn't find it. And whoever said it takes over an hour to program a Harmony One is sorely mistaken.
15 minutes if you know model numbers and have an av receiver, 30 minutes if you want to add macros (activities) for various things. I have 2 of them, and one 880 and they are awesome.

The model number and serial number is usually accessible via the service menu.

Be very careful with the service menu as it is supposed to be for the Sharp technician only. It may cause your TV inoperable.

From AVS Forum:
* ..While the LCD is on, unplug the power cable
* ..Then while holding the " INPUT " and " VOLUME (-) buttons ON THE TV (not remote) down, replug the cable in.
* ..When it powers up you will see a little "k" appear in brackets.
* ..Then on the set, press and hold the " VOL (-) " and " CH (-) (buttons on remote NOT on the TV) down and release
* ..The service menu appears on.
* ..Turn the set off to exit the Service Menu.
