Precautions
On safety
??This set is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.
??Completely disconnect the power cord (mains lead) from the wall socket if the unit is not going to be used for an extended period of time. When unplugging the unit, always grip the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
??Should any solid objects or liquid fall into the player, unplug the player and have
it checked by quali??ed personnel before operating it any further.
??Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 12 V (external power input) jack.
On temperature increases
??Heat may build up inside the player during charging or if it is being used for a long time. This is not a malfunction.
??Do not put the player in the carrying pouch when it is operating.
On handling the player
??Keep the lens on the player clean and do not touch it. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the player will not operate properly. Leave the disc compartment lid closed except when you insert or remove discs.
??Do not expose the player to mechanical shock, such as by dropping or compressing the player. Do not put any heavy object on top of the player. The player and the disc may be damaged.
??Do not leave the player in a location:
??near heat sources
??in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand, moisture, rain, mechanical shock
??on an uneven surface
6
??in a car with its windows closed
??near equipment utilizing strong magnetism such as a microwave oven or megavolume speakers
??If the player causes interference to radio or television reception, turn off the player or move it away from the radio or television.
Moisture condensation
If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp place, moisture may condense on the lenses of the player. Moisture condensation may not only cause the player to malfunction, but also damage the disc and the parts of the player. Therefore, remove the disc when you are not using the player.
When moisture condensation occurs, remove the disc and leave the player for a few hours until the moisture evaporates. If the player does not operate properly after a few hours, consult your Sony dealer.
On handling the LCD screen
??The LCD is manufactured using high- precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue, green) that continuously appear on the LCD. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.
??Do not wipe the LCD with a wet cloth. Liquid may seep into the LCD and cause a malfunction.
??Do not put or drop anything on top of the LCD. Do not exert pressure on the LCD with your hand or elbow.
??If the player is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense on the LCD. Should this occur, wipe the condensation off thoroughly before using the player again. Sheets of tissue paper are recommended. When the LCD is cold, and moisture condenses again even after wiping it away, wait until the LCD surface becomes as warm as the room temperature.
