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.
• Do not expose the appliance to naked flame 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.
• Do not place heavy or unstable objects on the player.
• Do not place any objects other than discs on the disc tray. Doing so may cause damage to the player or the object.
• Take out any discs from the tray when you move the player. If you don’t, the disc may be damaged.
• Disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) and all other cables from the player when you move the player.
On power sources
• The player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.
• Disconnect the player from the wall outlet if you are not going to use the player for a long time. To disconnect the AC power cord
(mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• Observe following points to prevent the AC power cord (mains lead) being damaged. Do not use the AC power cord (mains lead) if it is damaged, as doing so may result in an electric shock or fire.
– Do not pinch the AC power cord (mains lead) between the player and wall, shelf, etc.
– Do not put anything heavy on the AC power cord (mains lead) or pull on the AC power cord (mains lead) itself.
On AC adaptor
• Use the supplied AC adaptor for this player, as other adaptors may cause a malfunction.
• Do not disassemble or reverse-engineer.
• Do not confine the AC adaptor in a closed place such as a bookshelf or an AV cabinet.
• Do not connect the AC adaptor to a traveler’s electric transformer, which may generate heat and cause a malfunction.
• Do not drop or apply shock.
On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signals. Your ears and the speakers may be damaged when the sound level reaches the peak.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth. 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 replacement of parts
In the events that this player is repaired, repaired parts may be collected for reuse or recycling purposes.
On connecting to the HDMI OUT jack
Observe the following as improper handling may damage the HDMI OUT jack and the connector.
• Carefully align the HDMI OUT jack on the rear of the player and the HDMI connector by checking their shapes. Make sure the connector is not upside down or tilted.

On watching 3D video images
(BDP-S4500 only)
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://www.sony-asia.com/support/) 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.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This player is capable of holding a still video image or on-screen display image on your television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still video image or on-screen display image displayed on your TV for an extended period of time you risk permanent damage to your television screen. Plasma display panel televisions and projection televisions are susceptible to this.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Disc™ and DVD media. These systems, called AACS (Advanced Access Content
