Precautions
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits set out in the EMC
Directive using a connection cable shorter
than 3 metres.
On placement
• Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the
player.
• To reduce the risk of fire, do not cover the
ventilation opening of the appliance with
newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

sources (for example, lighted candles).
• Do not install this player in a confined space,
such as a bookshelf or similar unit.
• Do not place the player outdoors, in
vehicles, on ships, or on other vessels.
• If the player is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense on the
lenses inside the player. Should this occur,
the player may not operate properly. In this
case, remove the disc and leave the player
turned on for about half an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
• Do not install the player in an inclined
position. It is designed to be operated in a
horizontal position only.

Notes About the Discs
About wireless LAN security
(BDP-S5500/BX550/S3500/
BX350 only)
No Security
Although you can easily make settings,
anyone can intercept wireless
communication or intrude into your
wireless network, even without any
sophisticated tools. Keep in mind that
there is a risk of unauthorized access or
interception of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to
communications to prevent outsiders
from intercepting communications or
intruding into your wireless network.
WEP is a legacy security technology that
enables older devices, which do not
support TKIP/AES, to be connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology developed
to correct the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP
assures a higher security level than
WEP.
Additional Information
Since communication via the wireless
LAN function is established by radio
waves, the wireless signal may be
susceptible to interception. To protect
wireless communication, this player
supports various security functions. Be
sure to correctly configure the security
settings in accordance with your network
environment.
