Additional Information
Precautions
On safety
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the unit,
unplug the unit and have the unit checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
On power sources
• Before operating the unit, be sure that the operating
voltage of your unit is identical with that of your
local power supply.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be
used for an extended period of time. To disconnect
the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never
pull the cord itself.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On placement
• Place the unit in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat buildup and prolong the
life of its components.
• Do not place the unit near heat sources, or in a place
subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or
mechanical shock.
• Do not place anything on top of the cabinet which
might block the ventilation holes and cause
malfunctions.
• Do not install the appliance in a confined space,
such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.
On cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet, panels and controls with a soft
cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution.
Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder
or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
On repacking
Do not throw away the carton and the packing
material. This makes an ideal container when
transporting the unit. When shipping the unit, repack
it as it was packed at the factory.
If you have any question or problem
concerning your unit that is not covered in this
manual, please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
