• The contents of this manual are written for users with a working knowledge of Windows

. For details on computer operations, refer to your computer manual.

LCD display and camera lens

The LCD of your CLIÉ handheld is designed with precision technology. However, in some cases, individual pixels may remain lit or may not light at all. Also, the brightness of the display may appear inconsistent, depending on the angle of view. Such anomalies are caused by the nature of the LCD and do not indicate a malfunction. Please note that Sony does not guarantee a replacement or refund for such cases. Do not expose the LCD or camera lens to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. It may result in a malfunction. Do not store your CLIÉ handheld in areas subject to sunlight, such as near windows, and be careful when using outdoors.

The built-in camera

Bright or dark pixels may appear on pictures taken with the built-in camera. This phenomenon is not a malfunction and occurs due to the nature of the image sensor of the built-in camera.

Before taking pictures (CLIE Camera), or recording sounds (Voice Recorder)

Sony recommends taking a test picture to confirm settings and light conditions before actual shooting.

Take a test shot, save it, and view it to check the result. Likewise, perform tests before actual sound clip recording (Voice Recorder).

No guarantee for lost or damaged data

Sony does not provide any guarantee for lost or damaged data.
