the mains as long as it is connected to the AC outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

• As the main plug is used to

disconnect the unit from the mains, connect the unit to an easily accessible AC outlet. Should you notice an abnormality in the unit, disconnect the main plug from the AC outlet immediately.

On watching 3D video images

Some people may experience discomfort (such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images. The length and frequency of necessary breaks will vary from person to person. You must decide what works best . If you experience any discomfort, you

should stop watching the 3D video images until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You should also review (i) the instruction manual and/or the caution message of any other device used with, or Blu-ray Disc contents played with this product and (ii) our website (http:// esupport.sony.com/) for the latest information. The vision of young children (especially those under six years old) is still under development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before allowing young children to watch 3D video images.

Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations listed above.

Copy Protection

Please be advised of the advanced content protection systems used in both Blu-ray Disc media. These systems, called AACS (Advanced Access Content System) and CSS (Content Scramble System), may contain some restrictions on playback, analog output, and other similar features.

sends a digital audio signal from the TV. You do not need to make a separate audio connection for listening to TV sound. For setting the Audio Return Channel function, see [Audio Return Channel] (page 51).

B Video cord connection

If your TV does not have an HDMI jack, make this connection.

C Digital optical cord connection

This connection sends an audio signal to the system from the TV. To listen to TV sound via the system, perform this connection. With this connection, the system receives a Dolby Digital multiplex broadcast signal and you can enjoy multiplex broadcast sound.

• You can enjoy the TV sound by selecting the “TV” function (page 23).

• If your TV does not have a digital optical output jack, you can connect the unit and your TV with an audio cord for listening to TV sound via the system. For connection details, see “Connecting the other components” (page 17).

Connecting the other components

When a component you wish to connect to the system has an HDMI (OUT) jack

You can connect a component that has an HDMI (OUT) jack such as a set-top box/digital satellite receiver or PLAYSTATION®3, etc., with an HDMI cable. An HDMI cable connection can send both video and audio signals. By connecting the system and the component using an HDMI cable, you can enjoy high-quality digital picture and sound via the HDMI (IN 1) or HDMI (IN 2) jack.
