On headphones
To protect your ears
Listening to sounds at a high volume over long periods of time can harm your hearing. To protect your ears, do not listen with the volume raised too high.
Act considerately
When the volume is too high, the sound flows outside the headphones. Be careful not to raise the volume so high that it bothers the people around you.
There is a tendency to raise the volume when using in places with lots of noise. However, the volume should be kept at a level where you can respond if called while listening to the headphones.
On ear pads
The ear pads may become worn over long periods of use and storage. To replace the ear pads, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
On cleaning
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not use solvents such as thinner, benzene or alcohol as these may damage the surface.
When a malfunction or breakdown occurs
•If a malfunction or breakdown occurs or if a foreign object gets inside the unit, immediately turn off the power and consult your nearest Sony dealer.
•When taking the system to Sony dealer, be sure to take both the headphones and digital surround processor.
