Precautions

On safety

Do not drop, hit, or otherwise expose the digital surround processor or headphones to strong shocks of any kind. This could cause a breakdown.

Do not disassemble or attempt to open any parts of the system.

On power sources and placement

If you are not going to use the system for a long time, unplug the AC power adapter cord from the outlet. When removing the cord, grip the plug. Do not pull on the cord.

Do not place the system at any of the following locations.

Location exposed to direct sunlight, near a heater, or other extremely high- temperature location

Dusty location

On an unsteady or inclined surface

Location exposed to large amounts of vibrations

Bathroom or other high-humidity locations

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.
