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 meters. (Europe models only)

On power sources

• The unit is not disconnected from the mains as long as it is connected to the AC outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

• As the main plug is used to disconnect the unit from the mains, connect the unit to an easily accessible AC outlet. Should you notice an abnormality in the unit, disconnect the main plug from the AC outlet immediately.

On watching 3D video images

Some people may experience discomfort

(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images. The length and frequency of necessary breaks will vary from person to person. You must decide what works best. If you experience any discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D video images until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You should also review (i) the instruction manual and/or the caution message of any other device used with, or Blu-ray Disc contents played with this product and (ii) our website

(http://esupport.sony.com/) for the latest information. The vision of young children

(especially those under six years old) is still under development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before allowing young children to watch 3D video images.

Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations listed above.

Copy Protection

• Please be advised of the advanced content protection systems used in both Blu-ray Disc and DVD media. These systems, called

AACS (Advanced Access Content System) and CSS (Content Scramble System), may contain some restrictions on playback, analog output, and other similar features.

The operation of this product and the restrictions placed may vary depending on the date of purchase, as the governing board of the AACS may adopt or change its restriction rules after the time of purchase.

About wireless LAN security

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 system supports various security functions. Be sure to correctly configure the security settings in accordance with your network environment.

x 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.

x 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.

x WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK

(TKIP)

TKIP is a security technology developed in response to the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP assures a higher security level than WEP.

x WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK

(AES)

AES is a security technology that uses an advanced security method distinct from

WEP and TKIP. AES assures a higher security level than WEP or TKIP.

Additional Information

Precautions

On safety

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the system and have it 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

If you are not going to use the system for a long time, be sure to disconnect the system from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.

On placement

• Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.

• Although the unit heats up during operation, this is not a malfunction. If you continuously use this unit at a large volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerably.

To avoid burning yourself, do not touch the cabinet.

• Do not place the unit on a soft surface

(rugs, blankets, etc.) that might block the ventilation holes.

• 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. It 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 operation

If the system 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 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.

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 is 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.

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 moving the system

Before moving the system, make sure that there is no disc inserted, and disconnect the

AC power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet (mains).

On Bluetooth communication

• Bluetooth devices should be used within approximately 10 meters (unobstructed distance) of each other. The effective communication range may become shorter under the following conditions.

– When a person, metal object, wall or other obstruction is between the devices with a Bluetooth connection

– Locations where a wireless LAN is installed

– Around microwave ovens that are in use

– Locations where other electromagnetic waves occur

• Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN

(IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency band (2.4 GHz). When using your

Bluetooth device near a device with wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic interference may occur. This could result in lower data transfer rates, noise, or inability to connect. If this happens, try the following remedies:

– Use this unit at least 10 meters away from the wireless LAN device.

– Turn off the power to the wireless LAN equipment when using your Bluetooth device within 10 meters.

– Install this unit and Bluetooth device as closer to each other as possible.

• The radio waves broadcast by this unit may interfere with the operation of some medical devices. Since this interference may result in malfunction, always turn off the power on this unit and Bluetooth device in the following locations:

– In hospitals, on trains, in airplanes, at gas stations, and any place where flammable gasses may be present

– Near automatic doors or fire alarms
