Precautions
On batteries
• Do not carry dry batteries with coins or other metallic
objects. It can generate heat if the positive and negative
terminals of the batteries are accidentally contacted by a
metallic object.
• When you are not going to use the Walkman for a long
time, remove the battery to avoid any damage caused by
battery leakage and subsequent corrosion.
On handling
• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in
a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand,
moisture, rain, mechanical shock, or in a car with its
windows closed.
• We do not recommend the use of tape longer than 90
minutes. They are very thin and tend to be stretched
easily. This may cause malfunction of the unit or sound
deterioration.
• If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the
playback mode to warm it up before inserting a cassette.
• For cleaning the case, use a soft cloth slightly moistened
with mild detergent solution. Do not use alcohol, benzine
or thinner.
On headphones/earphones
Road safety
Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or
operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic
hazard and is illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially
dangerous to play your headphones/earphones at high
volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings.
You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Do not use headphones/earphones at high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or
discontinue use.
Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you
to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people
around you.
