to a traveler’s electric
transformer, which may generate
heat and cause a malfunction.
On battery pack
• Certain countries may regulate
disposal of the battery used to

Precautions
Road safety
Do not use the monitor unit and
headphones while driving, cycling,
or operating any motorized
vehicle. Doing so may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in some
areas. It can also be potentially
dangerous to play your headsets at
high volume while walking,
especially at pedestrian crossings.
You should exercise extreme
caution or discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid
fall into the cabinet, unplug the
player and have it checked by
qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
On power sources
• The power requirements of this
unit are indicated on the AC
adaptor. Check that the unit’s
operating voltage is identical
with your local power supply.
• If you are not going to use the
player for a long time, be sure to
disconnect the player from the
wall outlet. To disconnect the
AC power cord (mains lead),
grasp the plug itself; never pull
the cord.
• Do not touch the mains lead or
the AC adaptor with wet hands.
Doing so may cause shock
hazard.
On temperature increases
Heat may build up inside the player
during charging or if it is being
used for a long time. This is not a
malfunction.
On placement
• Place the player in a location
with adequate ventilation to
prevent heat build-up in the
player.
• Do not place the player in a
confined space such as a
bookshelf or similar unit.
• Do not cover the ventilation of
the player with newspapers,
tablecloths, curtains, etc. And do
not place the player on a soft
surface, such as a rug.
• Do not place the player in a
location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, sand, moisture,
rain, or mechanical shock, or in a
car with its windows closed.
• Do not place the player in an
inclined position. It is designed
to be operated in a horizontal
position only.
• Keep the player and discs away
from equipment with strong
magnet, such as microwave
ovens, or large loudspeakers.
• Do not place heavy objects on
the player.
On operation
• If the player is brought directly
from a cold to a warm location,
or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the
lenses inside the player. Should
this occur, the player may not
operate properly. In this case,
remove the disc and leave the
player turned on for about half an
hour until the moisture
evaporates.
• Keep the lens on the player clean
and do not touch it. Touching the
lens may damage the lens and
cause the player to malfunction.
Leave the disc lid closed except
when you insert or remove discs.
On Liquid Crystal Display
• Although manufactured with
high precision technology, the
LCD may occasionally display
dots of various colours. That is
not a malfunction.
• Do not wipe the LCD surface
with wet cloth. If water enters, a
malfunction may result.
• Do not place or drop any object
onto the LCD surface. Also, do
not apply pressure from hands or
elbows.
• Do not damage the LCD surface
with a sharp edged tool.
• Do not close the LCD panel with
a pen, etc., on the disc lid.
• If the player is brought directly
from a cold to a warm location,
moisture may condense over the
LCD surface. In which case,
wipe out the moisture with tissue
paper, etc., before use.
However, moisture condensation
will continue if the LCD surface
is cold. Wait until the surface
warms to room temperature.
On AC adaptor
•Use the supplied AC adaptor for
this player, as other adaptors
may cause a malfunction.
• Do not disassemble or
reverseengineer.
On car adaptor
• Use the supplied car adaptor for
this player, as other adaptors
may cause a malfunction.
• Do not dissemble or reverseengineer.
• Do not drop or apply shock.
• Do not touch the metal parts, as
it may cause a short and damage
the car adaptor, especially if
touched by other metal objects.
• Do not place the car adaptor in a
location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight or
mechanical shock, or in a car
with its windows closed.
On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while
listening to a section with very low
level inputs or no audio signals. If
you do, the speakers may be
damaged when a peak level section
is played.
On headphones
• Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones at high
volumes. Hearing experts advice
against continuous, loud, and
extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce the
volume or discontinue use.
• Showing consideration for
others
Keep the volume at a moderate
level. This will allow you to hear
outside sounds and still be
considerate to the people around
you.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and
controls with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
On cleaning discs, disc/
lens cleaners
Do not use cleaning discs or disc/
lens cleaners (including wet or
spray types). These may cause
the apparatus to malfunction.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This player is capable
of holding a still video image or
on-screen display image on your
television 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
television screen. Plasma
display panel televisions and
projection televisions are
susceptible to this.
If you have any questions or
problems concerning your player,
please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
