Precautions

On operating voltage

Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage of the unit is identical with the voltage of your local power supply.

On safety

•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.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

•AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.

On placement

•Do not place the unit in an inclined position.

•Do not place the unit in locations where it is:

–extremely hot or cold

–dusty or dirty

–very humid

–subject to vibrations

–subject to direct sunlight.

•Use caution when placing the unit or speakers on surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.

On heat build-up

•Although the unit heats up during operation, this is not a malfunction.

•Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the unit.

•If you continuously use this unit at a large volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch the cabinet.

•To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation hole for the cooling fan.

In case color irregularity is observed on a nearby TV screen

With the magnetically shielded type of speakers, the speakers can be installed near a TV set. However, color irregularity may still be observed on the TV screen depending on the type of your TV set.

If color irregularity is observed...

Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes.

If color irregularity is observedagain...

Place the speakers farther away from the TV set.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This system is capable of holding a still video image or on-screen display image on your TV 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 TV screen. Projection TVs are especially susceptible to this.

On operation

•If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit.

Should this occur, the system will not operate properly. Remove the disc and leave the system turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

•Before you move the unit, make sure that all discs are removed from the unit.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
