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 in areas subject to sunlight, such as near
windows, and be careful when using outdoors.

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

SONY recommends taking a test picture to confirm settings, etc., before actual shooting.
Take a test shot, save it, and view it to check the result. Likewise, perform tests before
actual movie and sound clip recording.

No guarantee for lost or damaged data

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