E1 is refering to the air filter. If turning the unit off and unplugging doesn't reset it then you probably have a PC board or sensor failure. None of these units can actually detect a dirty air filter. All it does is set a timer that turns the E1 on after what the manufacture determines is average.
Hope that helps.........
You can also do this :
1. Unplug the unit for 5 seconds
2. Hold the power button in until the unit beeps (not clear if this is with the power plug out or after plugging back in)
3. Pull the plug and reconnect a second time. (not sure if you're supposed to be holding the power button in)
He continues with additional instructions provided if that doesn't work:
1. Pull the power cord.
2. Hold the MODE button while plugging the unit back in, but do not let go of MODE
3. The unit will beep and start to operate
4. Let go of MODE and depress the Power button to turn it off
5. Press power to turn back on
I think that the first procedure sounds a whole lot like the one I used.
1. Pull the power
2. Hold the power button in for the next bunch of steps - don't let go!
3. Plug the unit back in, it will start, stop, and beep
4. Pull the plug out, don't let go of power
5. Plug the unit back in, it will start, stop and beep
6. Pull the plug out. Let go of power button.
7. Plug the unit back in and power it up. Set controls to your liking.
Good luck.........

E1 means you need to clean the filter.
(highly annoying) issue. After 720 hours
of fan operation, the error code E1 will appear on the seven segment
LED temperature display. This error code is intended as a reminder for
the user to clean the air filter
Ones cleaned follow these instructions to reset it
1. Power down the air conditioner using the "power" button on the front
panel.
2. Unplug the air conditioner from the wall socket.
3. Hold the front panel "power" button down and plug the air
conditioner in. Continue to hold the power button down as the machine
goes through a brief test sequence (fan & compressor each come on
briefly, etc). There is a "beep" sound at the end of the test sequence,
and the machine will be off. At this point, you can release the power
button.
4. Unplug the air conditioner.
5. Plug the air conditioner back in.
6. Congratulations! You should now be able to operate the air
conditioner normally for another 720 hours, but only if you followed
the instructions above EXACTLY.
If you doubt the veracity of this information, or it does not work as
expected, you can get it directly from the source at:

which is the Sharp customer service line.
Just turning it off and unpluging wont do the trick.
