Cases and coverings
•When placing the PSP® system in a commercially available case,
turn off the power or put the system in sleep mode. Do not use the system while it is in the case. Leaving the system on, or using it while in a case or covering may cause overheating or may damage the system.
•Put both the PSP® system and the Remote Control in Hold Mode to help prevent unintended operation.
Never disassemble the system or accessories
Use the PSP® system and accessories according to the instructions in this manual. No authorisation for the analysis or modification of the system, or the analysis and use of its circuit configurations, is provided.
Disassembling will void the system warranty and may be harmful. The LCD screen, in particular, contains dangerous, high-voltage parts, and the laser beam for reading UMD may cause visual impairment if exposed directly to the eyes.
Using the access point
When using the PSP® system's "Scan" function to select a wireless LAN access point, access points that are not intended for public use may be displayed. Only connect to a personal access point that you are authorised to use, or one that is available through a public wireless LAN or hotspot service.
Overseas use
When travelling note any applicable wireless regulations.
Moisture condensation
If the PSP® system or UMD is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may condense on the lens inside the system or on the UMD. Should this occur, the system may not operate properly. In
this case, remove the UMD and turn off and unplug the system. Do not put the UMD back in until the moisture evaporates (this may take several hours). If the system still does not operate properly, contact the appropriate PSP® customer service helpline which can be found within every PSP® format software manual.
UMD handling
•Do not touch the opening on the rear of the disc (recorded surface of the disc) with your fingers.
•Do not allow dust, sand, foreign objects or other types of dirt to get on the disc.
•If the UMD becomes dirty, gently wipe the exterior and recorded surfaces of the UMD using a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or other chemicals.
•Do not use a UMD that is cracked or warped or has been repaired. The UMD may break inside the PSP® system, leading to injury or malfunction.
Handling and care of exterior surfaces
Follow the guidelines listed below to help avoid deterioration or discolouration of the PSP® system:
•Do not use solvents or other chemicals to clean the exterior surface.
