Precautions
On safety
* To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, on the system, or
place the system near water, such as near a bathtub or
shower room. Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the system and have 1t
checked by qualified personnel before operating it
any further.
* Do not touch the AC power cord (mains lead) with
wet hands. Doing so may cause an electric shock.
On power sources
» Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do
not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by
the cord.
On placement
* Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet
becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction.
However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do
not place the system in a confined space where
ventilation 1s poor as this may cause overheating.
Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything
on the system. The system 1s equipped with a high
power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,
the system can overheat and malfunction.
Do not place the system on surfaces (rugs, blankets,
etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may
block the ventilation slots.
Do not install the system in a confined space, such as
a bookshelf or similar unit.
Do not install the system near heat sources such as
radiators, air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.
+ Do not install the system in an inclined position. It is
designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.
* Keep the system and discs away from components
with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or
large loudspeakers.
* Do not place heavy objects on the system.
* Do not place metal objects in front of the front panel.
They may limit reception of radio waves.
* Do not place the system 1n 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 operation
* If the system 1s brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or 1s placed 1n a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lenses inside the unit. Should
this occur, the system may not operate properly. In
this case, remove the disc and leave the system turned
on for about half an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
* When you move the system, take out any disc. If you
do not, the disc may be damaged.
* If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and
have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
On adjusting volume
* Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
section 1s suddenly played.
On cleaning
+ Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
On cleaning discs, disc/lens
cleaners
* Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners
(including wet or spray types). These may cause
the apparatus to malfunction.
On replacement of parts
* In the events that this system is repaired, repaired
parts may be collected for reuse or recycling
purposes.
On your TV’s color
* If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have
color irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on after
[5 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist,
place the speakers further away from the TV set.
