Precautions

On safety

• Before operating the system, be sure that the operating voltage of the system is identical with that of your local power supply.

Where purchased Operating voltage

North America 120 V AC, 60 Hz

All other regions 100 V-240 V AC, 50/

60 Hz (SA-NS310)

120 V-240 V AC, 50/

60 Hz (SA-NS410)

• Use only the supplied AC adaptor and AC power cord.

• When carrying the unit, be sure to hold it by the bottom of the unit. Do not hold it by the cloth, as the unit to may slip out.

On operation

• Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system, have the system checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

• This system is not magnetically shielded, do not leave recorded tapes, watches, personal credit cards, or floppy disks with magnetic coding in front of the system for an extended period of time.

• Do not put anything on top of the unit.

On placement

• Do not set the unit in an inclined position.

• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, moisture, rain or mechanical shock.

• Do not place metal objects in front of the front panel. They may limit reception of radio waves.

• Do not place the system in a place where medical equipment is in use. It may cause a malfunction of medical equipment.

• If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your physician or the manufacturer of your medical device before using the wireless LAN function.

On cleaning

• Wipe the unit using a soft cloth such as the cloths used for cleaning eye glasses, etc.

• Do not use alcohol, benzine, or thinner to clean the cabinet.

If the TV picture or monitor display is magnetically distorted

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

If a problem occurs while operating the unit, follow the steps described below before consulting your nearest Sony dealer. If an error message appears, it is recommended that you make a note of its contents for reference.

1

Check to see if the problem is listed in this “Troubleshooting” section.

2

Check the following customer support site.


You will find the latest support information and a FAQ at this website.

3

If, after steps 1 and 2, you still cannot solve the problem, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

If the problem persists after doing all of the above, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

When bringing the product in for repairs, be sure to bring in the entire system (main unit, remote control, AC adaptor, and AC power cord).

This product is a system product, and so the entire system is needed to determine the section requiring repair.

Power

The unit does not turn on.

• Make sure the AC adaptor and AC power cord are connected correctly.

• Be sure to press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button to set the unit to on.

• Press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button to set standby mode then press to set it back to on.

The network does not work after you

press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button to set the unit to on.

• It takes about 40 seconds for the unit to turn on.

The unit remains warm after the power is turned off.

• When the unit is in the network standby mode, some parts of the internal system remain active. Press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button after setting the NETWORK

STANDBY/STANDBY switch to

STANDBY to minimize the power consumption. However, the unit cannot be operated using a controller on your network with this setting.

The unit turns on and starts playback automatically.

• The unit can be controlled by a controller on your network. If the unit receives an order to play the audio content on the server while it is in network standby mode, it turns on and starts playback automatically. To enter network standby mode again, press the ?/1 (ON/Standby) button on the remote control. To prevent the unit from automatically turning on, set the NETWORK STANDBY/STANDBY switch to STANDBY.

Sound output

There is no sound.

• Press the VOL (VOLUME) + button to turn up the volume. The unit may have been set to silence the sound by a controller on your network. If the sound is output for a moment and then is silenced again, the unit may have received a command to silence the sound. Confirm the setting of the controller and release deleting the sound.

• When the PARTY STREAMING indicator lights in amber, confirm the audio format of the audio content that is being played by the PARTY host. The unit stops playback when the PARTY host attempts to play audio content of an audio format that cannot be played on the unit.

• Sound is not output when the unit is muted by your having pressed the MUTING button. The illumination indicator on the front of the unit flashes in blue during muting. In this case, press MUTING or

VOL +/– button on the remote control when you wish to release muting.

The sound skips.

• The sound may skip, depending on the network environment, etc., when you use a wireless network. In this case, try changing the security method to “WPA/

WPA2-PSK (AES).” This may improve the transfer speed and streaming playback.

• The servers are overloaded. Close all other applications you are currently using.

• Perform firmware updates for your access point (wireless LAN router) to the latest version.

There is severe humming, noise, or sound distortion from the speakers.

• Connect the unit and other devices

correctly (page 12 for SA-NS410/page 14

for SA-NS310).

Network

The unit cannot connect to the network. (The unit cannot be found or recognized by other devices that are on the home network.)

• If you use the unit in a network environment without a router, it may take about a minute for the unit to obtain its IP address after you turn on the power.

• The IP address may be in use by another device when you use a fixed IP address.

Use a different IP address in such a case.

The unit cannot connect to the network via a wireless LAN connection.

• Make sure a network (LAN) cable is not connected to the unit. The unit automatically tries to connect to the network over a wired LAN connection when a network (LAN) cable is connected to the unit.

• Confirm that the access point (wireless

LAN router) setting is correct. When SSID of the access point is hidden, set the SSID stealth mode switch for the access point to

OFF. For details on the access point setting, refer to the operating instructions of the access point.

The unit cannot be connected via the wireless LAN connection using the

WPS.

• You cannot connect to a network using

WPS when your access point is set to

WEP. Set up your network after searching the access point using the access point scan.

The wireless LAN transfer speed becomes noticeably slow.

• With some IEEE802.11n-compatible wireless LAN routers/access points, the wireless LAN transfer speed is decreased when “WEP” or “WPA/WPA2-PSK

(TKIP)” is selected for the security method.
